"So what do we do now?" Rey asked, her breath tickling my chest.  I sighed, my eyes sweeping over her soft hair, "I come to you.  You tell me where you are and I come to you.  My General will send troops to bring me back, you would have to be ready for a war".  Rey's head tilted up so that her eyes were studying mine,"If I bring a war to my people they will need a reason to fight.  They won't fight for you, especially now that Leia, your mother is gone".  I nodded, "I will fight with them but not for them.  It's in all of our interests to wipe out the First Order now".  Rey nodded, her hand moving across my chest and coming to rest on my arm, a shudder rushing through my body, making us both take a deep breath, reminding me of her ability to feel all I felt.  "I will tell them all tomorrow.  Ben I'm so afraid" she said, a single tear running down the side of her nose.  Without thinking I wiped it away, "Don't be afraid.  Tomorrow I will come to you.  Where are you?".  I watched her mouth open and then close again.  "Rey you have to tell me, if I am to find you then you have to trust me".  She nodded, her eyes gazing at my chest and then she spoke quietly "Devaron".  I nodded quickly, making a mental note of it, "I will be there by the middle of the day tomorrow.  Look out for me and for goodness sakes tell your people not to shoot me down" I looked into her eyes once more as the force bond ended.
