Author's Note: Double update again! Things are about to get better, I promise. Don't worry. ;)

Ben stormed back to the Falcon after the incident in the kitchen. Luke told him to figure out where things went wrong. He had thought things were fine between them, but obviously, he was wrong. And he did not like being wrong.

Ben stomped aboard the Falcon. Chewy was awake now and was ambling around the hub of the ship. He grumbled a brief greeting to Ben.

"You're out of caf." Ben said. Chewy mumbled a reply that he would pick some up on his next supply run.

Chewy now cocked his head curiously at Ben and rumbled some more.

"Yes. I slept here last night. Didn't think you'd mind." Ben said to the Wookiee casually.

Chewy rumbled again. Ben looked down.

"Yeah, we had a fight."

Chewy grumbled and roared at Ben, motioning at him with his long arms.

"I know my parents fought. You don't have to remind me." Ben said angrily.

Chewy grumbled a question.

"Of course I still love her... I -"

Chewy roared.

"Me? Apologize to HER? She's the one that kicked me out!"

Chewy roared more.

"She's sad? Why does everyone feel the need to tell me this?" Ben complained, throwing his hands in the air in frustration.

Chewy motioned to Ben to follow him. Ben sighed before obliging, following Chewy to the cockpit of the Falcon. Chewy gestured to a small black object perched on the dash of the Falcon.

Ben frowned as he stepped forward. He gingerly reached out and picked up the small hand-woven figure. It looked like him. He rubbed his thumb against the material the doll was made of, instantly recognizing it as the same material as the towels from the First Order refreshers.

Chewy rumbled to him.

"She made this?" Ben asked Chewy. Chewy nodded. He then motioned to the controls of the Falcon.

"No, I'm not flying this thing." Ben said, shaking his head. Chewy rolled his eyes and pushed Ben down into the pilots seat. He indicated Ben start the ship.

"No!" Ben said. Chewy roared in his face.

"All right, all right, fine! I'll start the ship!" Ben said.

He flipped a couple of switches and pressed a few buttons. The Falcons engines roared to life. Chewy pointed to a button on the dash, wanting him to push it. Ben pressed it. There was a humming noise and the Falcon suddenly shuddered.

"The cloaking device works now? It hasn't worked in ages!"

Chewy roared again.

"She fixed this?"

Chewy nodded and pointed out a couple of other features that had been in need of repair that were now functioning.

"Why is this so important?" Ben asked Chewy. Chewy rumbled to Ben sadly. Ben frowned.

"She's been fixing this for me?"

Chewy nodded again. Chewy said that Rey still wanted Ben to have a piece of his Father with him, even though he was gone. She knew that if it hadn't been for Snoke, Han would still be around. And she knew that hurt Ben more than anything.
