He hadn't expected her to show up! Rey had plenty to keep her occupied with these days. And after Finn had arrived, he had anticipated seeing much less of her for a little while. But here she was, calling out to him from the other side of his bedroom door. Ben shot up, nearly rolling off the mattress, in a panic. She had come to see him, obviously but he was barely dressed and his hair looked like a bird had tried nesting in it.
Thankfully, Ari was far too big for that. To be fair, she had given it a try.
The seconds ticked by as he avoided answering her. She would know he was in there. There would be no hiding from her. Perhaps something was wrong? He sucked on his bottom lip, debating on which lie to give her that could send her away. But one lie would mean another and eventually he would have to tell her the truth anyway so-
Ben groaned. He swung his legs over the edge of the bed. Reaching out with one hand, he used the Force to unlock his door and open it. Quickly -and gently- he Force-pulled her inside just enough so that he could close the door behind her. Once she was in and the room was dark again, he let himself fall back into the bed. "I'm not getting up today," he told her, his lips sticking out stubbornly.
