50 Days To Get Engaged • Sequel To 50 Days To Fall In Love {ON HOLD}

Day 15

She knew she was probably overreacting. Or maybe she was hoping she was.

Sometimes you just don't know, and that's what killed her inside.

The unknown.

The sun was just rising, and rays of bright yellow light streamed from the sky shining through the single window in the bathroom.

Cracking open an eye slightly, Rey groaned her face puffy and red against the cover of the toilet.

She wished she could never leave the bathroom, not like she had motivation to anyways.

But that didn't erase the fact that Rey promised Finn she'd help him set up his new Ikea shelf. As she crawled out of the bathroom, she prayed that Ben had already left for work.

He didn't

Rey tried her best to be quiet, so he wouldn't notice her, but that didn't seem to work for as soon as she reached for a protein bar he sharply turned to face her.

"Let me explain."

Her face scrunched up at his words.

"I don't need an explanation, I'm done here."

Rey started to walk away, ignoring the pleads that escaped Ben's mouth.

"I hope you're happy Kylo."

Those were her last words before she walked out the door, slamming it shut behind her.

"Finn I feel like my life is slowly turning into some melodramatic soap opera, like the ones one of my foster moms used to watch."

Finn laughed nervously, picking up the instructions for the shelf.

"Feel free to tell me what happened, but as long as you help with the shelf Rey. Isn't that what you're here for?"

"Well then Finn, what's the first step?"

He handed the instructions paper to her and Rey started to piece the shelf together with some help from Finn and the occasional drop-in from Poe. She had finally managed to explain the situation to the two of them as she built, her eyes slowly tearing up.

"Don't worry Rey, if that asshole has been cheating after all, we will end him!" Finn clenches a fist and shakes it in her face.

"And if you really want you can stay here for a bit -" Poe cut in, "But I wouldn't recommend it."

"Why not?"

"I just think that you should get the full story from both Ben and whatever her face is before making assumptions. Rey you told me you wanted to marry him!"

Finn gasped and Rey's face went red with both embarrassment and irritation.

"It was just a thought Poe! Now i'm just not sure..."
