Proud
It was a very sad day, it was raining, everyone was sad. Today is the day we're going to say goodbye to our General, our Princess, Leia Organa. Ben was broken. He wasn't there for her but he loved her. Everyone was talking about how good she was, how she would love to see what we had done.
"Hey." I said as I stood by Ben, as he watched Poe, Finn and Jax play around.
"Did he know her?" He gulped. He was referring if Jax knew Leia.
"Of course. She would always tell me, she looking at you." I smiled. "She loved him. Cared for him as if he was hers. He loved her even more."
"Was he here when she died?" He looked at me.
"Yeah." I softly said. I grabbed his hand. "She would be very proud of you Ben. Believe me."
"Only if I could tell her that I was sorry."
"She knows." I pulled him in for a hug. "She knows."
"It doesn't seem enough." I pulled out from the hug and looked at him.
"She's your mother. Mothers are supposed to love you no matter what. No matter how bad things turn out." He looks at me. I touched his cheek. He gave me a small smile. "Leia would be proud of you." Poe carries Jax on his shoulders as he walks towards us.
"We're picking up Rey, if you wanna come, we leave in 10. General Jax wants to come."Poe said, to me, not to Ben.
"Come on!" Jax cheers. Poe gave Ben a glance and walked away.
"Is he gonna hate me forever?" Ben asks.
"Not forever." I patted his chest. I walked away and got my equipment on. I saw Finn walking into the ship with Jax. "You should cut Ben some slack." I said to him.
"Why?"
"Because he's on the good side now, hes better." I crossed my arms. "Poe, come on."
"I dont trust him." He squinted his eyes.
"Everyone gave him a chance, you should too."
"You are so lucky that he saved you, if he didnt, i would blast him." I shook my head. "Hera, i love you, theres many guys out there, but you had to pick him?"
"Him, is the father of my child, your nephew. One chance is all that im asking." I looked away and saw Ben, which made me take another look. He looked good. He look exactly like Han. His blaster on his side, his hair, the vest which made him-
"Close your mouth, you're drooling." Poe jokes. "Oh no." He said as Ben came on the ship. "Where do you think you're going?"
"With you guys?"
"No-"
"Welcome aboard." I slapped Poe's arm. Ben smiles and got in.
"No!"
"One chance!" I yelled as I got in the ship. We both went to the front and flew off. Rey went to Tatooine, she never told us why. Jax sat on my lap as we flew across the galaxy. Finn sat there bothering Poe about Ben becoming his brother in law.
"Who would've thought?!" Finn laughs.
"Not me." I joined in. We stopped as Ben came in. He leaned against the frame, looking at us. "Wanna give it a try?" I asked him.
"No, im good." He declined.
"Oh come on. Whats the worst thing going to happen? Us crashing?"
"Dont worry, if you do, its all Poe's fault." Finn jokes. Poe looks at Finn, he was gonna hurt him. He squinted his eyes.
"You are very lucky that Jax is here."
"Come on." I sat up. Ben went to the seat and placed his hands on the wheel. I saw the light that was brought to his face. Jax got on his knee.
"Where to buddy?" He asks.
"To Tatooine!" Poe smirks and then in seconds, there we are. Rey saw us and we chilled inside.
"Hey!" I said as I hugged her as she came in. "How was it?"
"Hot." We laughed. I saw BB8 rolling in.
"Hey buddy! Had fun?" He started telling me about how sandy it was and how much sand he had. I sat in back, with Jax, just snuggling up. I braided one strand of his hair.
"Dad!" Jax called out to Ben, who was sitting on the other side. "Can you teach me your jedi moves?"
"Uh I dont know, what does your mother say?" They both looked at me. I smiled.
"Im okay with it." Jax smiles.
"Come sit here!" He pats the empty spot next to me. Ben walked to the spot. "I want to be the best Jedi around the galaxy! I want also want to be a pilot just like mom and uncle Poe." Jax gets up and started to pretend to fight with a lightsaber. "When I learn how to fight, I will use my force to save people and use them for good."
"You will." Ben smiles.
"Just like you." He stares at Ben. "Mom told me what you did, you saved her. Im glad that we have our family together."
Ben and I had exchanged looks. We weren't together, it felt too soon. After the whole, Kylo Ren vs Hera Dameron, we decided not to be together, at the moment. Ben wanted to get himself together first, and then maybe ask Poe if he can have my hand in marriage but Poe, it wasn't gonna happen any time soon.
"Of course." I placed my hand on Jax cheek. He ran around the ship, playing with Finn.
"Who would've thought a 7 year old can be so-"
"Hyper?" We both laugh.
"He gets it from you." He placed his hand on top of mine, secretly. I started to to turn red. "His smile, the way he has hope, all from you."
"I cant take all the credit. He does have your eyes, your moles, and your beautiful ears." We both looked at each other. He leans in, gently placing a kiss on my soft lips.
"Go on." He whispers.
"You're such a tease." I gave him another kiss. We heard someone coming in, we pulled apart, acting like we didn't just kiss. Poe comes in.
"Hey, Solo, mind helping me with this?" He looks at me. "Dont look at her, look at me."
"Yeah sure."
"Well lets go." Ben stands up and looks at me as he walks with Poe. This isn't going to play out, the way i hope for.
