Rey's POV-
After what felt like forever, the women doing my hair and makeup stepped back from my face.
"Oh honey you are already looking absolutely stunning, and you don't even have your dress on yet!" Leia exclaims.
"Thank you!" I say to her as the little makeup women rush to get my dress.
As I put it on, and the inner silk slip is soft against and cool against my bare legs. I go and look in the mirror as the women slip silver high heels on my feet, put metal hoop earrings and armbands on me, and put a cape of see-through sparkling silver fabric over my shoulders.
I look amazing. The dress is silver and sparkling like my cape, and it's edges sweep the floor delicately. My hair is done up in a glorified version of my everyday hairstyle, my three buns large and round, not a hair out of place. Coming from my buns are spikes made of a strange silver metal that makes each spike look like glittering icicles sticking out of my hair. My makeup is dramatic, but flattering.
I sigh as I look at my reflection.
Leia steps up behind me.
"There's something missing." She says, and she clasps a silver necklace around my neck, with a purple jewel pendant hanging off of it.
"Oh my goodness Leia it's beautiful! Thank you so much!"
"It was my mothers. Now it is yours." She says.
"Oh thank you so much!" I exclaim and hug her tightly.
I'm so excited for the coronation.

Ben's POV-
I'm so nervous for the coronation.
What if she says no? Or worse, laughs or something?
But she wouldn't do that. She's sweet and caring.
She'll just turn me down politely.
I groan as the little argument with myself in my head goes on.
I'm so nervous I can't barely think as I clasp my cape to my shoulder. My outfit is kind of similar to my everyday wear, but I'm wearing a kind of dark grey tunic pants and boots, with a red and dark grey cape pinned to one shoulder. I've also got on a grey ceremonial pendant on, with a purple jewel in the middle.
My mom insisted I wore it, saying it was a family heirloom that she wanted kept in the family.
I place the dark grey crown on top of my head. It's like tall icicles are jutting from it, and it is very beautiful.
I am ready. As I start to leave my dressing room to meet Rey in the main hall to walk outside to the outdoor coronation, I slip the crew ring box into my pocket.
I'm ready to ask Rey to be my wife.

Rey's POV-
As I enter the main hall to meet Ben at the front doors I can hear the crowd outside. I start to get a little nervous. But then as I found the corner and see Ben, all my worry fades away.
He looks so handsome in his dark grey outfit, and as he smiles at me all my troubles melt away. I love him so much.
"Hello there handsome!" I say to him teasingly.
"Hey beautiful." He says in a voice that makes me blush.
He kisses me quickly and then we get into our positions as the doors open. Leia and Chewbacca and Finn and Poe and the droids are standing there beside us, but as the doors are thrown open and the huge crowd quiets in the big beautiful main square of Naboo, I know all attention is focused on me and Ben. I step foreword to start my speech.
"Hello. I know that many of you have come far and wide to be here today, and I thank you. Being from the small sandy planet of Jakku on the outer reaches, I know and appreciate the time you spent getting here. Today is the day that The Grey Order comes into being. Today is the day that the broken and battle weary divides in our universe come back together again to unite what once was, and what should always be, our universe as a whole.
I know that it may be hard to unite with people that are different from you, or might have done some bad things, but my relationship with Ben Solo, formerly known as Kylo Ren, is proof that, on the surface we seem different, but in the end, we are all just creatures, that want companionship and love from others around us.
I challenge you, my people, to unite with the others that are different from yourself. The Grey Order will be the peace that we have all craved for so long, wishing and dreaming. It is what unites us.
I now accept my role and title, as Queen Rey Kenobi of The Grey Order."
I say. But the only reaction is silence.
Nothing.
Oh god I've failed.
But then, near the front,
The crowd parts, the light side and the dark side stepping away from each other, to reveal a small resistance girl, and a in training storm trooper boy stepping foreword away from their designated sides, into the center, where they hug.
And the crowd goes wild. They run happily into the arms of each other, the tow separate crowds mixing to become one. They kiss and hug and pat each other on the backs and cry.
I start to tear up. It's beautiful and amazing.
But then I turn as Ben steps foreword, and says loudly so that the amplifying technology catches his voice and projects it over the crowd,
"How about making Queen Rey Kenobi, Queen Rey Solo?"
And then he gets on one knee and pulls out a box, which he opens.
Inside is a ring.
"Rey, will you marry me?" He asks, and my heart just stops beating.

Ben's POV-
As I kneel down and pull out the ring, I look to my mom for her final vote of approval. She nods and smiles.
Then I ask her,
"Rey, will you marry me?"
She gasps and starts to cry.
She looks so beautiful tonight, I start to tear up a little to.
"Yes Ben I love you!" She cries.
I think my heart stops working I'm so happy, but that doesn't stop me from whisking my fiancée into my arms and kissing her like my life depends on it.

Rey and Ben's POV-
This is the happiest moment of my life.
