-Rey-

"Are you sure that no one will find us here?" Ben was looking at me with a nervous look in his eyes, I nodded.

"It's Hoth, why would anyone want to come here? This place is too cold for anyone to search here. Speaking of cold, even inside it is quite chilly." Even with an old coat on, I still stood there, rubbing my arms and shivering. Ben, who himself was wearing an old coat, moved in close to me, wrapping his arms around me. I stopped shivering, I felt the warm presence of love and his beating heart and it made me smile. "I am starting to regret picking the coldest planet I could possibly think of. I might have to spend the rest of my life freezing every day."

"Then I will wrap you in my arms to keep you warm every day." I nestled in closer into his warm coat and welcoming presence. I never wanted this moment to end. I was worried about my friends, Finn, Poe... Leia. What if Palpatine found them and attacked? Without us, the resistance's best fighters, the rebellion could be destroyed in an instant. Ben could feel my unease, he started kissing the top of my head and stroking my hair. I was able to breathe again. Finn and Poe were great fighters. Poe is a fantastic pilot, the best we have. Finn was even able to hold his own against Ben once before, it didn't end great for him but he left alive and not everyone can say that. As for Leia, she is a member of the best bloodline, with her father being Darth Vader, her brother Luke Skywalker and Ben her son. She has even had a little bit of Jedi training, so she could hold her own if she had to. I never wanted to leave them and come to a plant too cold to inhabit, but standing here in Ben's arms made it all worth it. I could feel a sudden unpleasant feeling from Ben. I stared him in the face.

"What's wrong?!"

"Nothing, why?"

"I sense that something is bothering you."

"I don't want this moment to end..."

"But..."

"I have to go to the bathroom." I broke the embrace because I couldn't stop laughing.

"Go ahead. I am thoroughly going to enjoy spending every day with you, Ben... every minute, every awkward moment like this one."

"Me too Rey. We can continue this when I get back!" I watched Ben disappear down the hall of the old rebel base. I sat down on a wooden crate, waiting patiently for him to return. I didn't want to wait, I wanted to be in his loving embrace every second of the day! I feel like I might suffocate if I am not breathing the same air as him! I never thought that I would feel this way about anyone in my whole life! I guess that this is what love feels like? Stronger than anything else, surrounding me, changing my life? Kind of like the force, love was like the force... and the force connects me to Ben. The force gives life to all living things. Ben gives me life, and I want that life to be with him for the rest of my life... preferably not on Hoth.
