"He laughed back at her. He didn't know why, but it felt...right. He finally felt like he belonged, right here, with her in front of him. Not going to leave him, use him, or hurt him. She was here only for him.
And Ben couldn't care for anything more in the galaxy. " - Chapter 13 : "Say It"
"Together, their two halves became one. The flickering light of Rey in direct disparity to the glowing darkness of Ben-- but between it all, there was a raging, beautiful balance that shook the planets and rattled the stars." - Chapter 14: "Between It All"
A Reylo fanfiction that picks up where The Last Jedi left off. Now that Snoke is gone, how will the First Order function? Will the Resistance be able to rebuild their army? What happens regarding the mysterious bond between Rey and Kylo Ren?

***Comments as of January 2021:
Yes, I am aware it has been a year and a half since I have worked on this. And yes, it has been an entire year since The Rise of Skywalker came out. I am very sensitive, empathic, and passionate, and therefore still have yet to recover from the hellish fever dream that was the last half of that movie. Because of what happens to a-- *COUGH*--certain someone, I have had approximately zero motivation or inspiration since. I am so sorry for not updating--I know I've left you guys hanging for a long time now. I'm sorry, I'm getting there.
"I wanted to join you," Rey said, tears dripping from her face.
"Then why didn't you?" Menace crept from Kylo Ren's voice as he turned to make deathly eye contact with her.
"You know why!"
"Enlighten me," he threatened, though it sounded like a plea.
"It wasn't our time, Ben, you know that." Rey's voice shook a little.
"When is our time?" Kylo's voice became lighter.
"You already know the answer to that," she sniffled.

The Force knew Rey was to be in Kylo Ren's life just as Kylo was to be in Rey's. However, both individuals prayed and hoped for very different outcomes.
Rey wanted nothing more than to bring Kylo Ren back to the Light. She wanted to show him the wonders it provided and the life they could have if he returned to her.
Kylo wanted to bring her to the Dark Side. He wanted to rule with his bride by his side.
The Force was the only one who truly knew what the future held.
