    Summary

    The first time Ben Solo saw Rey Johnson she was touring the facility as a new intern. Ben was holding a ladder steady as his friend inspected the outside of the craft. She took everything in with stars in her eyes and Ben couldn’t help but notice how beautiful she looked.

    Suddenly, she was walking towards him being led by his fellow coworker, Gwendolyn Phasma. Ben let go of the ladder and brushed his sweaty hands against his flight suit.

    “Ben this is our newest intern, Rey Johnson,” Gwen introduced. “She has been assigned to shadow you.”

    “Oh! Nice to meet you,” Ben replied, holding his hand out for Rey to shake. “I’m Ben Solo.”

    He felt a jolt when their fingers brushed against each other. And she smiled at him like he was the center of her universe.

    “The pleasure is all mine,” Rey replied.

    Summary

    In the end, she has to hand it to him— he'd always been an expert in taking her by surprise, and it would appear that he's chosen not to shake the habit even in death.

    "Rey Skywalker?" There's a vaguely sardonic twist to the corner of his mouth. "Does that make you my cousin now?"

    "It seemed like a fitting tribute," she says in wooden tones. Be it dream or vision, she might as well play along— draw this out until reality comes crashing back. Who knows when he'll come to her again as solid and as vibrant as this?

    "I see." Suddenly he's leaning into her, their faces so close together. "Tell me," he murmurs, his lips almost brushing against hers, "have you ever heard of the term kissing cousins?"

    She registers the smell of alcohol on his breath at the same time that his eyes flutter shut and he slumps face-down into her lap, snoring softly. You're alive, is all she can think at first, staring down at his head of lush black hair.

    Ben Solo is alive.

    Alive and very, very drunk.

    Summary

    "Ben, trying to change our fates would be like trying to move the stars."

    *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

    The Galactic Civil War never happened.

    Ben Organa-Solo has everything he could ever dream of set before him - he's the prince of Alderaan, the most powerful Jedi-in-training in the galaxy, and part of the famous Organa royal family. The only thing he still craves is completion, freedom to chase down the mysterious Sith Lord who has been plaguing the Outer Rim.

    Rey Palpatine is cold and vicious as the best political operator the Galactic Republic has ever seen. She's the granddaughter of the increasingly powerful Chancellor Palpatine, who seeks to use her for his own plans without knowing that she's got ambitions of her own. Rey has secrets, secrets that no one else in the galaxy knows, and she'll die before she lets anyone use those secrets against her.

    The last thing Ben and Rey need or want is an arranged marriage - especially to each other - but they quickly realize that the best way to get what they want is through each other. Drawn to each other in ways they don't understand, Ben and Rey will be forced to put their allegiances on the line and decide what exactly is worth fighting and dying for.

    Summary

    “Let them go, and I—" her voice wobbles before finishing, “I will too.” Ben lets out a breath of what he thinks is relief, but before he has a chance to respond she continues, “I’ll go anywhere with you, anywhere in the whole galaxy. But I won’t stay here.”

    Summary

    Rey didn’t know what she was doing, nor how it would effect the people who she now saw as her family, but something in her heart was pulling her towards him. Taking his hand seemed like her only option. Her only chance at bringing Ben solo back...

    What happens when Rey decides to take Kylo Ren’s extended hand in Snoke’s crumbling throne room instead of leaving him. Will life ever end up being peaceful or will the force continue to twist their fates in unsuspected ways? And will Rey ever get through to Ben Solo hidden deep below the mask called Kylo Ren?
