-Rey? For the force's sake, i told her to stay there, what part doesnt she understand?- Maz murmured a little pissed when she couldnt find Rey.
-Hey have you seen a girl, age 19, brown hair in a half-ponytail, tall?- she asked the secretary.
-Rey Solo?- he answered without looking up from his papers.
-Solo, huh?
-Yep, thats her. Room 10B, next to her husband Ben Solo- he laughed at the coincidenses.
-Thank you!- she yelled while jogging to Rey's room. "Rey Solo, her wife. That Mauly really likes to crack jokes"
-Hey! Solo!- She yelled while knocking on Rey's room.
Ben and Rey stormed out of their rooms with the pillows marked on their faces. Ben walked out with a plain black longsleeve shirt fixing his hair and Rey with some sweatpants and a with shortsleeve shirt rubbing her eyes.
-What's wrong, Maz?- Ben asked without realing Rey was there too.- Oh... what are you doing here?
-Huh? Oh, sorry, I thought she knocked on my door.- she said looking at her door. Ben looked at Maz with a "why did you put me next to her" look and Maz responded with a "this was not me" look.
-Actually I was knocking on Rey's, I have a to talk to her. Blame the "Solo" on Mauly.
-That creep.- Ben chuckled hiding how uncomftarble he was with Rey using his last name.
-Sooo.... come in!- Rey said to Maz, breaking the silence.
-Sure. See you around, Ben.- Maz said coming in.
-Aha- he said coming back in.
Ben looked at the stars from the balcony, it was beautiful, really. The sky was clear. He wondered if there was an actual winter. Every time he would be there there was sun in the ski shining on every single thing he could see. There weren't too many windows in the castle so when he got inside he always made sure that he was sitting in a table where the sun hit right in. It was beautiful to him, the way the sun shined on his mother's hair and on his dad's smile. Ben made on of his most treasured memories in that same place. One time that he was sitting there, waiting for his mom to come back from a meeting with some republic sympathizer, when he picked Han's old dices and started to play with them. It was simple but yet very calming and happy, everything was just fine. He was only nine years old back then, but he remembered the feeling, the smell, even what he was eating, perfectly.He put his hair up in a bun and sat down in a chair that was there, hoping to dream of his childhood again.

-So, what brought you here?- Rey asked Maz after closing the door.
-I was searching in my files about your little situation... and...- Maz said sitting down in the closest chair she saw.-And..?- Rey said sitting in the chair next to Maz's.
-Im sorry kiddo, but there is nothing in any of my books and archives that says something about repairing broken Cyber crystal. I'm sorry.- Maz took Rey's hand and looked at her in the eye.
-Uhmm... It's okay, I guess. Don't worry.- Rey said when she saw Maz's sad expression.
-I'll let you rest now. I'll let you know if I find anything more in the matter. Goodnight, Rey.- She said getting up and opening the door.
-Goodnight, Maz. Thank you.
Crap.
What was she going to do now? Without a lightsaber and the fight being in only two days she was doomed. Rey knew that she still had her staff and her fighting skills, but what about the Resistance hope? She was reminded constantly about how she was a little ray of hope for them! They finally had a Jedi in their side and now she was unable to use her powers? First she didn't train for over six months and she didn't even had the proper training, she had to figure it out on her own... right? No. She was not falling for that trap. How could Kylo freaking Ren cross her mind! Yes, he was the one that made her find out about her powers, but she was in no way going put herself at risk to just train a little bit. Training that wouldn't even be enough for the fight! She made it on her own for nine-teen years, she was going to survive out of this one. Yeah! Maybe her muscle memory will save her now.
she opened the window to see if the night-sky was clear. Maybe she would go for a run to test her strength and to, of course, distract herself a little bit and to ease her anxiety. Still, when she opened the window to step into the balcony, she was surprised by seeing a focused Ben looking at the stars, not even realizing of her presence. She stared at him for some seconds. Rey almost smiled when she saw the man-bun, he looked good with it. When she remembered her goal from before, she took a deep breath and made sure that the temperature was right for her midnight-jogging. And then she felt it, he was looking at her. When she dared to look back, she saw that there were tears in his eyes and in his cheeks. She was immediately paralyzed. Why? Then, it went black.
