❄️ TAKE SHELTER ❄️

a short textfic for #ReyloSpiritWeek
(saturday: stranded/snowed in)

rival teammates ben & rey get stuck in the office during a blizzard. thankfully, they both have projects to focus on and can stay far away from each other. right? Image
What’s a little friendly(?) competition between coworkers? Image
ImageImage
ImageImage
ImageImage
ImageImage
Image
Meanwhile, Rey's phone keeps buzzing. Image
ImageImage
Was that a sasquatch walking into the bathroom?

Or⁠— ImageImage
This is fine.

This is FINE. ImageImageImage
A little while later: ImageImage
And about twenty minutes after that: ImageImage
Okay, yes, he's good at functions.

And yes, it's saved her an exorbitant amount of time.

Big whoop. Image
10 p.m. rolls around...

...and things start to get weird. ImageImage
ImageImage
Look, if *anything* is worth a ceasefire, it's homemade lasagna.

Whatever. ImageImage
ROSE.

That is absolutely preposterous. ImageImage
And yet: ImageImage
😳 ImageImage
ImageImageImage
With her laptop stowed away and her desk cleaned up, Rey walks out into the lobby.

She's not expecting Ben to wait for her.

She's *not*.

But when he makes a mad dash out the side door without a single word, it does sting a little.

A few hours later, her phone buzzes. Image
*insert italicized "Oh." here* ImageImage
Image
Well then. 🥺 Image
Always gotta update the group chat. Image
Flash forward, one year later:

Rey's heart⁠—and stomach⁠—have never been happier.

💕 Image
THE END. 🍝💘

thank you to @vtradescant2 for looking this over and for always (ALWAYS) listening to me ramble

and to @bb_kate_ & @feralsandgremln for hosting #ReyloSpiritWeek!
