You Need to Leave

Chapter dedicated to @Reylo_is_My_Halo, Thanks for the help a while back with this chapter. 

A/N: I am obsessed with this video currently. Look at the similarities! 

Ben's POV

The weekend passes faster than it ever has and it's time for Rey return to her parents.

"I don't want you to leave." I cuddle into her back.

"We've been over this." She strokes my arm that's wrapped around her naked form.

"I know, but that doesn't change what I want."

She sighs and moves my arm. "I need to shower." She grabs my robe I haven't used in ages and goes for the bathroom.

I get up and go over to her packed bag on my desk.

I open my desk draw and pull out the Rose Gold Mickey ears she wanted so bad.

There will never be a good time to give her them. I stow them in her bag with her clean clothes.

Rey's POV
I arrive back at the trailer and there's a new dead crow near the raccoon, but also a beat up car that looks like it may still be in use.

I shift the bag on my shoulder and open the door.

"Well if Dawn and Lou are still misbehaving in school maybe they need to be taught a-" My father stops. 

My parents and a stranger look at me.

"Rey, honey, what are you doing home early?" My mother asks setting her beer down. 

"I'm not, I'm actually a little late." I set my bag down.

"Nia, this is our daughter Rey." She introduces me to the woman. 

"When did you have a kid?" Nia asks looking back at them.

"Years ago." My mother nervously laughs.

"Yeah, like 15 years ago." My father chimes in wrongly.

"What grade are you?" Nia addresses me.

"I'm a junior." I tell her.

"You need to leave." My mother snaps at her.

"When's her birthday?" Nia snaps back.

"Don't act like I don't know my daughter's own birthday." She grabs Nia by the arm and pushes her out the door, then slams it shut.

"Sorry you had to see that." My mother smiles.

"When is my birthday?" I ask.

"It's in April and you're 17, not 15." She eyes my father.

"Sorry, a father can wish his little girl's aging would stop."

"Well it's getting late, we better go to bed, we have to take the recyclables into town tomorrow." She presses a kiss to my forehead.

"Night babydoll." My father disappears into their room and my mother follows suit.

I grab my bag and sit down on the couch. I open the bag and see a pair of Rose Gold Mickey Ears.

I smile and know Ben did it. He must have.

I put them on and snap a quick selfie.

Rey to Ben: thank you! I love them! 
Ben: they look good on you.
Rey: thanks :) 
Ben: What's that on the computer screen?  Looks like an alert. 

I glance up at the laptop on the kitchen counter then turn to see it's reflection in the window.

I take off the ears, storing them back in the bag, and go over to the laptop.

There's a notepad opened on the screen and a regular notepad next to it.

REY KENOBI

Age: 17

Birthdate: April 10, 2000

Parents: taken by CPS at birth.

School:

Address:

I glance to the screen and see the notepad filled with all my info and a red alert sign behind it.

I delete the note and rip the page out of the notepad.

Why would my parents have this written down?

I close the notepad to look at the alert sign and someone's email is open.

There's a picture of my father's face and a horrifying title.

PUT THIS CHILD PREDATOR, ZAC PETERS, BACK IN PRISION! SIGN THE PETITION NOW

They aren't my parents. My eyes widen and I close the laptop.

That's why Nia was questioning them.

"Rey honey?" I hear my moth- the woman call out for me.

I pretend to be walking over to the fridge.

"Yeah mom?" I ask and her door opens.

"I was just thinking-" She glances to me in the kitchen then the closed laptop. "What are you doing over there?"

I open the fridge door and pull out a Coke. "Getting a drink." I try to act fine. 

"Okay." She walks over and grabs the laptop, glancing at the now empty notepad. I begin to shake the can of Coke in my hand. "Did you-"

I bring the soda up and open it, spraying it in her face.

She screams and I hear the man jump to his feet.

I grab my bag off the couch, bolting out the front door.

"Stop her!" The woman yells and I hear the door slam open, as I fumble to start the motorcycle, not even bothering with my helmet strapped to the passenger seat.

"Stop! I'm warning you!" He yells and I hear a gun cock.

I slam for the gas and the motorcycle lunges forwards.

BANG!

The first shot hits next to me in the dirt.

BANG!

BANG!

Dirt and rocks fly up on my right side and I press the motorcycle to go faster.

The tears fly from my eyes, as I speed away at what feels like lightspeed.

There's enough moonlight, but I finally switch the headlight on hitting the main road. 

Ben's POV
An hour passes and Rey still hasn't texted back.

I glance at the time on my phone and it changes to 11:00 pm.

The screen suddenly glows with Rey's face as she calls me. 

"Hello?" I anwser.

"Ben, it's me. I- I don't know where am I. Those people were not my parents, one's a child predator, so I ran-"

"Whoa, whoa, slow down. They aren't your parents?"

"No! I don't know who they are!"

"Okay, clam down. Did you get away?"

"Yeah. I'm at a gas station in the middle of nowhere and I'm almost out of gas and I can't find my wallet. What do I do?"

"First breathe." I tell her and hear her take a breath. "Next there is a compartment under the gas gag, do you see it?"

"No, there's nothing there."

"See the small black rectangle?"

"Yeah."

"Push it." I hear a small click. "There should be a spare 20 in there, use it." 

"Thank you." I hear her sniffle. 

"Are you coming back?"

"I'm coming home."

A/N: Rey is going back to Ben! 

What do you think of those people now?

Remember this story is currently set in Fall, so in book time tomorrow is not Rey's birthday, but tomorrow is Daisy Ridley's birthday! 

Happy Birthday Daisy!
