Rey's POV
A long month has passed.

I stand with Jak and a couple other porgs, while Ben waits with a caretaker.

My grey wrap dances in the wind along with my hair.

I nervously check my brown tunic to make sure it's straight and adjust my belt once more.

I have the Skywalker lightsaber hanging off my belt now, since Ben has informed me that my has been destroyed.

A porg calls out to Jak and he tugs on my wrap to more forward and my brown booted feet comply.

I round over the hilltop and Ben comes into view.

He wears a similar attire to his Kylo Ren outfit, but I can see the new details of light in there.

As I get closer, he holds out his ungloved hand for me.

And I accept

And I accept.

The caretaker begins her speech about love and we remain silent. Looking into one another's eyes.

(Imagine a Ahch-To ocean background instead lol)

I speak the native tongue here very little, but when I hear the words the caretaker finally speaks I know what to say.

"I do."

The care taker asks the same thing to Ben.

"I do." He replies.

The caretaker finishes and I reach up to kiss Ben.

He takes me in his arms and our lips meet again, then he dips me and I let out a little giggle, as the kiss deepens.

He leans me back up, only to sweep me off my feet.

Jak flies up and around us, making happy porg sounds.

You're totally enjoying this.
