Rey still has nightmares about Exegol, especially when it storms. The lightning reminds her too much of how she almost lost her found family, including Poe. Now, a year later, the war behind her, Poe tries his best to help her heal.
Damerey Drabble Challenge
Prompt: Storm
The sharp bang of a nearby lightning strike woke Poe from sleep. He jerked up, looking for Rey. The last thing he remembered was holding her as she trembled due to the lightning. It appeared the storm was still raging. But where was Rey?
He got up and headed outside to find her standing in the rain, her face to the sky, her expression determined. “I won’t let you take them,” she said. “I won’t let you scare me anymore.”
Poe stepped out into the rain and came to stand next to her. She smiled, her fear gone at last.
