Summary
Ben never wished for a do-over, or a second chance, or a meeting where he could be a little braver, but he got one anyways. He got one, though he's almost sure he never should have.
And Rey never thought she'd see him again after graduation, through she does. Through a window, storming down the street like his pants are on fire. But he's little more scarred by the world, a little more lost than she remembered him being. A little bit more skittish than she thinks she ever knew he was.
She should have given him a chance, then. Should have listened better to the things he didn't say. She wishes she had, so much.
Maybe she can do it now?

The bell over the door rings, bright and tinkling, and he snaps his gaze up to the woman standing in the doorway, tote bag slung over her shoulder and one lock of hair haphazardly escaping her high bun.
His heart stops in his chest, or at least it nearly does, at the sight of her.
He can’t believe they’re really doing this.
