*POST TLJ*

One night. One mistake. Funny how something so seemingly insignificant can change so much. Ben and Rey learn that the hard way. 

After years without contact, they have to somehow figure out how to start anew and heal all of their wounds. 

It's hard, but forgiveness is always a good beginning.

Also the title comes from the song Shake it Out by Florence + the Machine.

Star Wars IX- Balance Of The Force by BethBee83

Following the events after The Last Jedi. "Just a dream, it was just a dream," she says aloud attempting to calm herself, but the feeling doesn't dissipate, and her heart is still racing. She stands and walks towards the doorway to the fresh air outside, trying to get the images out; a child her child and his. She feels sick and faint, is this a panic attack? She walks outside her hut and stands in the rain holding onto the wooden railing of the platform around the cabin tightly to give her balance. #2-Reylo 25.11.2018, 24.10.19 #1- ReyxKyloRen 1.3.2019, 6.1.22 #2- starwarsfanfiction 31.12.19 #13- starwars 21.8.19 #2- starwarssequels 10.12.20 Big fan of the movies and books. I am a massive Reylo shipper- #Reyloisendgame, but there is nothing mature rated or not appropriate for say 12-year-old plus. I do not own the original star wars characters. I do not own the artwork throughout, except the art on the note from myself which is mine. The cover is by Heidi Hastings. "I appreciated how much you fleshed out the story, truly making it a potential movie in the franchise. I can't not mention the romance. You truly made Ben and Rey's relationship believable on many levels. From his temper and passion to his devotion to Rey, I loved how you didn't make light of his past so that we can accept him easier. They complete each other and their love brings balance to the universe and gives them what they have always wanted - true acuhceptance and companionship." "I have not encountered anything so truly amazing since 'Bloodline' (Claudia Grey)." "I have read so much fanfiction, normally I don't read smutless stories, but this one is so well written, beautiful ending and I couldn't stop today until I finished it." "This is one of, if not the best Reylo books I have read so far."

let go ☽ reylo by kyloandthemoon

Kylo pleaded softly, his pale, trembling hand reached out towards her with desperation. "Please." Rey's somber eyes wandered to Kylo's hand; it yearned for her, called her name, offered power, knowledge and a future with someone she might just love. She met his hand with her own, and let the solemn curiosity of the dark side encapsulate her. If Rey took Kylo's hand. Following an alternative ending to The Last Jedi. Pre Rise of Skywalker. Cover made by me. Completed. [[Going through editing]] #1 on kyloandrey 14/05/20 #81 on adamdriver 15/05/20 #10 on reylo 11/08/20 #1 on reylofanfic 06/01/2021

SAVIOR [Kylo Ren] by h3ff1s

The Head Technician of the First Order. An orphan from Corellia. Ree Keelor. One day, fixing a broken cooling system, the next, being taught how to wield a lightsaber. The Master of the Knights of Ren. The offspring of a Jedi Knight and a General. Kylo Ren. One day, conquering the galaxy, the next, falling madly in love. A Master and his apprentice. A tale of how the two became equals on both the battlefield and in the sheets. Will a galactic war come between the two or will love conquer all? --- Disclaimer: This is a work of fan fiction using characters from the Star Wars universe, which is trademarked by Lucasfilm which is owned by Disney. I do not claim any ownership over the Star Wars universe or the characters within that universe. I do claim ownership of the characters that I have created such as Ree and Tylan. The story I tell here about Kylo Ren and my own character Ree is my own invention, and it is not purported or believed to be part of Star Wars story canon. This story is for entertainment only and is not part of the official storyline. I do not profit from this financially. Lastly, I am grateful to George Lucas for his wonderful stories about this galaxy far, far away, for without his films, my story would not exist.

My Love, My Bonded by its-kira

"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. *notes: -this is set after the last jedi but before the rise of skywalker. some things have been changed to better fit my story -there will be descriptions of violence, self harm and alcohol. i will not be putting warnings unless deemed necessary as i am stating here what to expect from the story -i will be editing this as i go along and because of that, some chapters might be reposted to fit the edits i made -of course, these are not my characters! if i use artwork, the artist will always be credited. -enjoy❤️ and feel free to comment your opinions! i appreciate you!! :) rankings i'm proud of: 1 in #rey - october 10, 2021 1 in #thelastjedi - october 10, 2021 1 in #reylo - november 10, 2021 1 in #kyloren - october 12, 2021 1 in #bensolo - february 14, 2022

Lost - A Reylo Fanfiction by reylo_hearts

Rey, an abandoned nobody, fought side by side with the powerful Kylo Ren. She saw a future in him, a redemption of Ben Solo. She believed it, and a part of her still does Kylo Ren, Ben Solo, the son of a Skywalker and the grandson of Darth Vader, turned to the dark side by the never calm conflict within him. He killed his own Supreme Leader for the scavenger girl, but now it seems the girl has no more faith in Ben Solo and he is lost. After the Battle of Crait, Rey shut the door on the new Supreme Leader Kylo Ren. Only days before, she was sure that she could bring back Ben Solo, but now, shes not so sure anymore. She's lost faith in him, she believes her vision was only a vision. But she just can't seem to forget the look in his eyes when he fought by her, when he killed his Supreme Leader, when he understood her after the dark cave consumed her. She can't seem to forget him. Then there's Resistance pilot Poe Dameron. Rey hardly knows him and yet now she's strongly captivated by him, drawn to him by an aura that feels so positive and so warm and welcome. But he has a hatred for Ben Solo that is unexplained, and Rey fears that her friendship with Poe will prevent her from bringing Ben home. Who will Rey choose?
