Chapter Six: Watch

He had been raging for about three weeks and finally Rey decided that he could do the show.

He was in his dressing room, shaving cream on his face as he ran a razor down to get the clean cut look.

Apparently he didn't pull off the classic ringleader mustache well so he was forced to shave, then a knock came at the door "come in"

The door opened and Rey walked in, her hair in some twisted and complicated braided bun.

She wore a grey jacket that has Skywalker written on the right side and a pair of leggings underneath.

"I wanted to come and tell you break a leg" she said softly.

"Oh?" He said surprised .

"Oh?" Rey asked.

"I just -" he saw her sit down on his makeup chair near him and swivel to face him.

"You just?" She asked with a raised brow.

"I just didn't expect you to wish me good luck that's all" he replied as he ran the razor down his cheek.

"Why would I not wish you good luck ? It's my show too" she pointed out as she flexed her toes back and forth .

"I don't know ... I mean ... the way you treated me -"

"Like a professional, Ben I treated you the same way we all get treated when we first come into this show ... as time goes on you get placed in the family" he said.

"What are you then ?" Ben asked as he wiped his shaving cream off his face with a damp rag .

"I'm the over achieving little sister, and you're that bad cousin who smokes weed after school and tries to get in everyone's pants" she replied .

"I'm in committed relationship" he folded his arms over his chest.

"Sure " she said "if you're in a committed relationship then why are you here with me and not with your girlfriend on Saturday night?"

"My job" he shouted as he combed his hair out to put his hat on.

"I see you Ben , looking at the girls when they're doing stunts or getting makeup or stretching... you're not happy with Bazine, trust me"

"You're like 23 chill-"

"I'm 19 asshole" she replied and the grabbed the damp rag. "And you have shaving cream on your face still" she then removed the small dot with the rag.

"Whatever" he rolled his eyes and she then grabbed something from her pocket.

"This was the real reason why I'm here" she handed him a small box .

Ben opened it and on the inside was a pocket watch "uh?-"

"When your grandfather did his first show my grandfather gave him a pocket watch, and when your uncle did his first show my grandpa gave him a pocket watch... it's the ringleaders jobs to make sure we stay on time, to prevent going over or someone getting hurt" she said "I thought it would be kinda symbolic that I gave you a pocket watch in your first show" she said and closed his hand over it .

"Thank you Rey" he smiled and slipped it in his red suit jacket.

She smiled softly "here let me help you" she said and helped him fix the vest that was over his white shirt.

"Thanks" he smiled , Ben got his suit on and she looked at her phone .

"I have to get changed and dressed, break a leg out there" she then stretched on her toes and kissed his cheek.

Ben grew red as he watched her walk out of his room.
