Bound to you {Reylo}

-7-

Ben:

She's so peaceful and elegant while she sleeps. A body of an angel, and a soul of a warrior. Everything about her is so captivating; warm. I hear her breathing loud and clear. As I listen more closely, it becomes rapid like it's hard for her to breathe. I feel fear in her, feeling the same thing, I walk out and try and look for a nurse. But no one is here. How can that be? Rey is having trouble breathing and no one can do something about it? I walk back into the room and she's crying. I hear painful, soft sobs and I rush next to her.

Crouching down, I gently shake her awake, seeing the fair green eyes that I fall in love with every time I look at them.

"Ben." She says in a soft, sleepy voice that makes me want to cry. Seeing her scared, or in pain is the last thing I want right now.

"Are you okay?" I reply. Grabbing her hand and holding it like a fragile feather.

"No. I had a dream." My grandfather, when he was Anakin Skywalker, used to have dreams that would come true. Like the one about my grandmother dying in childbirth.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" She nods her head and sits up. "What was it about?"

"I was back on Jakku. Everything was like it was before. No family, No force; the light and the dark. Most importantly, no you. Unkar Plutt still using people to get junk and sell it. Then flash forward and I see Han die again. Ben, all I wanted to do was wake up and be in your arms, but the dream wouldn't let me. I was stuck. I needed you." She starts to cry even more. I wrap the blanket around her and hold her. She smiles just a little, I take her face in one of my hands and I make her face me.

"You already have me. My heart is yours." I kiss the top of her forehead, her head then laying on my shoulder. I'm in love with the small moments we share.

**MORNING**

I wake up back in the chair and Rey is in the hospital bed, sitting up talking to my mother.

"Good morning sleepy," Rey says to me. I smile a little as I get up, kissing her cheek and sitting back down. Poe Dameron comes in with three drinks, one for Rey, my mother and himself. At least that's what I thought. Instead, one for Rey, my mother and me.

"Here you go Ben, hope you like hot chocolate. It's supposed to be very good." I take a sip and it's very good. Better than what I thought it would be.

"I could have gotten drinks for you," I say to Rey. She shakes her head and giggles.

"You were in a peaceful sleep. I didn't want to wake you." I shake my head in return letting her know that not doing something for her wasn't an option. She takes a sip of her drink and lays back down, propping her head up. The nurse comes in with release forms and pulls me aside.

"Now will you be the one to sign these or should I ask the General?" She uses a hushed tone while asking me and I tell her that we both should sign them as is, Rey would probably want to be in on the action; knowing her wanting to be in it right away. Leia would have to sign for her to do any of it. We both sign the release form as Rey changes her clothes. I will soon have my sweetheart out of here

"I'm going to give it all up," I speak softly into Rey's ear while she brushes her hair in the mirror, putting my arms around her waist holding her close to my body. "For you." I kiss up and down her neck, hearing soft moans come out of her then I stop. Leaving her in awe, wanting more.

"What?" She turns towards me, laying her hand on my cheek.

"You know what."

"Explain it to me?" She has a sensual look on her face. She takes my hand in hers and kisses each knuckle softly, slowly leading herself up to my own neck, leaving long, breathtaking kisses that make me lift her head away and kiss her on the lips, hard. Not wanting to back down but she breaks the kiss. I'm devastated.

"I love you, Rey. And that's why I have to do this. I'm going to destroy The First Order if it means that I get to have a quiet, loving and peaceful life with you." When she starts to cry I hold her in my arms so she can see and feel the safety.

"You would do that for me?" She says.

"Of course I would... you know I would." I kiss her cheek, kissing all of the sadness of tears and hurt away. Extreme love feels like it's pouring out of me. This is where I'm meant to be, who I'm meant to be with.
