"Where have you been?" I have been so worried of you Ben." Leia cries and hugs Ben tightly. He responses to her hug, and I can just watch them from flank. I can believe how worried Leia has always been of him since she sent Ben to Luke's teaching. Everything has changed after that. Now I can understand how hard this has been to her anyways. She doesn't deserve anything bad.

"It's a long story but-"

"Just tell me everything. I need to know everything, because I am your mother. You know it well." Leia stops his sentence and put her hand on Ben's shoulder. He sighs and points us all to sit down. This is going to be a long story, I think in my head. Ben hasn't told me all either.

"So, I was going to order doctor time for Rey, and I heard weird noices from the forest, and I didn't care of them. I just continued walking and didn't think that much of any danger. When I was coming to Rey, I heard the noices again and I started to run. I felt uncomfortable because the noices didn't go away. I sat down on the ground to balance my breathing and then Hux suprised me. I stood up and force choked him. And finally killed him." Ben tells us.

Leia looks very confused, she had thought that Ben can turn to light, but it wouldn't work like that if he kills his enemies. She looks down to take her thoughts away.

"When I killed him, I was like "Now I can continue my walk" but then Phasma and her army took me on her ship putting me to handcuffs. I woke up from the empty room on the chair, where I was cuffed from legs to hands. I was in a big panic and I didn't get food or anything. I almost died there."

He swallows and continues.

"And here I am."

Leia sights and hugs his son. I just keep petting Ben's back while Leia tried to say something clever to him. She was speechless about his story. She stands up and wipes hear tears away during she goes outside. This was too big piece for her. Ben's look follows her steps to the door. After Leia went out, Ben eyes meets mine. He looks very sad and disappointed of his trip.

"I didn't mean to-"

"You didn't, I know it. She just has been so worried about you so long." I say and go closer to him.

"I'll go talk to her." I say and kiss him on his forehead. I go outside, Ben didn't get a change to say anything. Leia sits on the chair, laying his hand on table. I sit next to her and put my hand on her shoulder. She turns her face away and sobs. She tries to get her look away from me, she really wants to be alone, but I can't let her be like this for long.

"Leia, you can't run away your worries forever." I say and hold her hand.

"The most important thing is Ben's here with us. No one comes to search him anymore." I continue. She turns her head to me and wipes her tears.

"I can't lose him second time. I'm still unsure he would stay here. I just can't trust him that way." Leia says and I take her in big hug. She press her head on my chest and her tears drops on my pants, making a little puddle on them.

"But now he stays with us. Think how sad you make him, when he sees you like that. He really thinks you have lost your hope with him." I say. Leia looks at me and asks sobbing: "Really?"

I nod and Leia starts to cry even more. How I can help her if I'm just making her cry.

"I think I'm just too over worried of him. I don't want him to worried about me, Maybe I'm just too sensetive." She says and pulls me into hug.

"I need to talk to him. I'm the person, who should support him the most, making him happy."

"You're his mom. You can handle this." I say and smile. She responses with a little smile and we go inside. Ben has been waiting us and comes towards us when I open the door. Leia goes to her bedroom and Ben comes to me.

"How's she?"

"She needs to handle this whole thing. She has been too worried of you and your things. I think she just needs some time." I say, looking into Ben's eyes. They look deep brown, almost black. I can see his worriness of his mom, he really wants to help her and make her feel better.

"Should I go talk to her n-"

"No. Not now. Like I said, she needs time to handle this." I say taking grib of his arm. He turns around and nods.

"Should we leave her alone?" He asks and looks at me with questioned look.

"She's your mother, not mine." I say and smile.

"But you can manage these things better than me." He says and laughs. It's true, but I decide we leave her alone. If she wants to be alone, we leave her alone.

Ben closes the door and sits down on the kitchen. He sighs and press his head on his hands. Why I don't feel any saddness of this? Of course I have been worried about Ben and his mother, but I haven't took this seriously. Most important is Ben is now at home, and no one comes to search for him. At least now. I don't think The First Order needs him anymore, when they have seen light inside of him.

"Hey, don't be afraid. She is going to fine, I promise. You just need to show her you care."
I say and go sit next to Ben. He press his head on my shoulder and swallows. This must be hard for him too. I have actually never seen him this broken. He has shown his feelings since he saw the light on him.

"I don't wanna be a baby with you. I'm just crying after my mom, who's worried about herself and me." He says and drops few tears on the floor. How I can help these two, I am just making this situation even worse.

"You're not. But I should leave you alone too, this is tearing you-"

"No. You don't go anywhere." He says and takes a grib of my arm. I turn to him and try to look emphatic. That's all what I can really do. Listen him. And show I care.

"I want to tell you something." He says and wipes his tears. He pick me up and embraces me on his legs. I put my hand behind his back and nod him to say what he wants to say to me.

"Rey. I haven't ever told you, how important you are to me. You really brought me back to light, even though I thought it would be impossible for me. Darkness had took me on its embrace, and I promised to finish what my grandfather started. I failed him. And I failed everyone in First Order. Snoke too. Everyone punished me about everything, because I didn't make any move of our plan to kill Resistance more and more every day. They wanted to see results when Resistance would be weaker and weaker. I started to doubt my idea. I had always said that "We go step by step, we're slowly going to kill them all." but that wasn't what my heart said to me. My brain told me that. They wanted to kill all good inside me, to bring darkness around me and my body, and make me kill everything what moves. It's called conflikt. But when I met you, I thought I would have change to change myself. It was hard, but worth it. You keeped me in hope, you saw monster side of me, you saw the darkest sides of me. No one has not ever seen that. But you, scavenger. You brought me hope, passionate me of the light side, you tried and tried so hard. I have almost killed you and I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. How I could even try that on you? You ever hadn't been sorry, even thought I almost killed you. How? Then I saw something, inside of me. It dragged me so hard, the feeling what I have never felt to anybody. It made me feel serious, I always watched myself what I was doing. I was careful of everything what I let go of my out. I was scared some kind of point. It's called love. I was scared that I have been fallen in love with scavenger, who is trying to save me. And I knew she's the one, what I want to keep safe of everything bad. She doesn't deserve anything. Rey, I truly love you." Ben says and kisses me slowly.

Our lips pressed together very slowly, making sparkles around us. Ben's tongue goes throught my teeth, and I pulled it back on his. I can feel the passionate, happiness, maybe little bit scariness between our kisses. This is called love, and caring. I never thought I can fall in love with a monster. With a monster, who I saved. With a monster, who I thought its gone. Gone forever. But now, he's mine. Forever.
