Old Friends

A/N: This is going to be a short reunion chapter... but hey, it's a reunion!

Rey's POV
We come into a clearing and Apollo goes over to a rock and leans against, then puts his forehead against it.

"Is it nice and cool?" I ask.

"Yeah. I'm tired." Apollo tells us.

A series of high cheerful beeps calls our attention and we all turn to see BB-8.

"BB-8!" I shout and run over embracing the droid.

Poe and Finn break through in to the clearing next, breathless.

"When you say run from stormtroopers, he really goes." Poe says between breathes.

Ben gives a chuckle and I release BB-8.

"Rey." Finn sweeps me up into a giant hug and I realize how much I had missed him.

"Oh Finn. I missed you." I squeeze him tighter.

"I missed you too." He says back.

"And who's this little guy?" Poe asks and Finn and I part to see Ben carrying Apollo over.

Finn glances between Apollo and Ben, then me. "Wait is he your?" Finn asks confused.

"Yup." I smile and put a hand on my stomach. "You'd be surprised how fast force children grow."

"Wait how old are you Ben?" Finn asks.

Poe and Ben laugh. "She's messing with you." Poe informs him.

"Oooohhh." Finn says then smiles.

"This is Apollo. Rey and I took him is as our son." Ben introduces him. "Apollo, this is Poe."

"Hi." Apollo waves.

"And this is Finn." Ben finishes.

Finn gives a shy wave and Apollo waves back.

"Did you both fly here?" Apollo asks.

"We sure did." Poe smiles.

"I like your ships."

"Maybe one day your mom and dad will let me take you for a ride."

"Can I?" Apollo looks at Ben.

"One day buddy." He replies.

"Not today?" Apollo frowns.

"Not today." Ben agrees.

I walk over to them. "Only because it's not safe for us to be seen by the Resistance today." I tell him.

"Okay." He turns to Poe. "Another day?" He asks.

"I promise." Poe holds out his pinky and Apollo smiles wrapping his small pinky the best he can around it.

"Black leader, do you copy?" A voice comes through his commlink.

Poe sighs, but responses. "Yes, this is Black leader."

"General Organa has requested your presence."

"She's landed already?"

"She landed about 10 minutes. She's asking for you and Finn as well. Sounded urgent."

"Okay, he's with me as well. On our way." He ends the call.

"I guess this is goodbye for now." I give a sad smile.

"Just for now." Poe replies.

I give him a hug and he bends down to hug Apollo. "It was nice meeting you." He tells Apollo.

"It was nice meeting you to Black Leader Poe."

Poe chuckles. "That's right. Ever get in trouble with the Resistance, ask for me. Okay?"

"Okay." Apollo smiles and throws his arms around Poe's neck and he embraces him.

He could totally pass as his uncle.

I look over and see Ben smiling and Finn nod to whatever they're talking about.

Ben turns and meets my eyes. "Okay I guess I'll let you say goodbye to Finn now."

"Yes that would be nice." I smile and walk over to Finn.

He wraps his arms around my waist and it feels like we are back on Starkiller Base escaping Kylo Ren.

"Take care of yourself." He tells me in my ear.

"You too." I say back and we release.

"My turn!" Apollo shouts next to BB-8 nearby.

I crouch down, as he goes over to Finn and BB-8 rolls over to me.

He beeps a farewell and says he hopes to see us again.

"I hope so too." I smile.

A beep comes from Poe's commlink.

"Okay, time to go." Ben tells us.

"Okay. Byyyeee." Apollo waves and takes Ben's hand.

"Bye guys." I join in and Ben gives a wave.

I begin to head back to the ship when Ben continues into the forest.

"Where are you going?" I ask.

"I want to show Apollo something." He leaves him away.

I jog to catch up quickly and follow behind them.

"Wanna see something cool?" Ben asks as we approach a small canyon.

"Yeah." Apollo's eyes light up like he knows Ben is going to do something wonderful.

He crouchs and motions for Apollo to climb on his back. "Hold on tight."

"Okay."

Ben does a small upward swing with his arms and him and Apollo go up the little ways to the top part of the canyon.

I smile and shake my head, then climb up the side.

I reach the top and look around, but see that they are nowhere in sight.

Panic begins to set in.

"Ben? Apollo?" I look around at my surroundings and turn.

Whoosh.

A force hold takes over me, freezing me in place.
