Chapter Twenty-Six- A Christmas Dinner

Rey was sitting at her vanity , brushing her hair . There was a light snow on the ground .

Today her and her grandfather we're going to Ben's for Christmas Eve Dinner .

She was happy that she would get some food , especially Leia's cooking .... Leia couldn't bake to well... Well she couldn't bake at all . So Rey was going to help bake the pie .

She made sure she looked nice , she wore a red dress and black nylons as well as black boots .

"Rey ? You ready?" Benjamin called from the living room.

She looked at herself in the mirror and was happy with the outfit , and the baby bump she now has at 16 weeks.

She and Benjamin drove in the car to Ben's house . Benjamin, Han and Ben were gonna watch the football game .

Rey knocked on their door and Han opened . "There's the mother of my grandchild !" Han smiled and hugged her .

They came in and Rey walked to the kitchen to help Leia . Leia handed her an apron . "Let me get to that pie" Rey said .

Leia was mixing salad as Rey was putting some dough in a pie tin. "Any movement yet?" Leia asked .

"No " Rey sighed "my doctor said that I should be feeling movement any day now"

"Maybe a Christmas morning present" Leia said .

"Maybe " Rey smiled and then Ben walked in .

"You didn't even say high to your girlfriend " Leia scoffed at Ben as he grabbed some water .

Rey smiled and then he kissed her cheek. "Any movement?"

"No ... None ... I told you I'd let you know " Rey smiled at him.

"What pie are you making ?" He asked .

"Apple and Cherry" Rey then grabbed a fork and began to press the topping into the crust.

"My favorite " Ben then put his hands into the filling .

"Ah ah!" She said "get your fingers  out of my pie filling !"

"That sounds really sexual " Ben whispered into her ear. Rey then elbowed him in then rib.

"Ben ! Quit bother Rey and I ! Unless you wanna make the food get out !" Leia said .

Rey smirked at Ben and he stuck his tongue out at her .

They were all sitting down at the table , eating with conversation. Rey sensed something wasn't okay with Ben . She then rubbed his hand with her thumb.

He smiled at her and went back to his food . "So ... Have we talked about names ?" Han asked .

"Well our son -" Ben began .

"Or daughter ! " Rey shot him a look.

"Well anyway if it's a boy I'm naming him if it's a girl Rey's naming her " Ben said .

"Any names you're liking ?" Leia asked .

"I really like Jenna ... Ben says it's stupid " Rey said .

"It's not stupid it's just not a good name for my child " he said . "It means light and soft "

"Okay what were you thinking ?" Benjamin asked .

"Adam ... Harrison maybe Lucas " Ben said .

"Okay ... Adam and Lucas are nice" Han said . "But Harrison ... At least your mom and I gave you a name you could live with !"

"Your dad's right " Leia said "give the kids a name they can live with"

"What about Benjamin?" Rey said .
"Benjamin Marcus Solo Jr. ?... The third Ben in our family "

"Three Bens ? That is more than enough " Benjamin said .

"Well I really like it" Rey took a drink of her sparkling water.

They were all settled around the tree , the fire going and they all were eating pie . The snow was falling outside .
The Christmas music was playing .

"You should open some presents -" Ben said .

"Ben ... It's not even Christmas morning" Rey laughed .

"Well it's a Solo family tradition -"

"No it's not" Han said . Ben shot him a glance "oh ... Yeah it is I forgot " he took a drink of his wine .

"You should Rey" Leia said.

"I swear if you guys bought another baby book " she said .

"They didn't " Ben said and handed her a small box .

Rey took off the wrapping paper and then opened the box . Inside laid the ring that was Leia's promise ring.
"Ben?" She looked down and saw him on one knee . "Oh my god " Rey gasped .

"Rey ? I'm not really good with all the sappy stuff but ... I really love you ... And I love our baby ... Reyhanne Alessandra Kenobi ... Will you marry me ?" Ben asked , his voice about to crack and his hands on hers , holding the box .

"Oh Ben ... Yes " Rey said and tackled him in a hug , causing him to fall on his back .

"Can I put the ring on you or ?" He asked . Rey smiled and got off him and gave him her hand .

Ben placed the ring on her finger , it was a perfect fit. Rey then grabbed him by the collar and kissed him .

"Slow down there ! We don't need her anymore pregnant " Han said .
