Rey couldn't be more thankful.
There's no such thing as an abrupt ending to things, to actions and no consequences, to earning new knowledge and rely on ignorance. Yes, Kylo Ren had done terrible things and billions in the galaxy would not forgive that easily. The Resistance won't forget his crimes any time soon. Poe Dameron, one of the new Generals owed his people respect. He probably should have stood up to make Leia Organa's son pay for his actions.
Instead, he had trusted Rey.
Poe had not been shy about how much he disliked the situation, how uncomfortable he was over helping her hide Ben. To Rey, that was further proof of the feelings that had grown between them, his blind and fervorous support. He might not see the light in Ben Solo the way she had in her visions, but Rey could tell her partner wanted to believe in Leia's last wish.
Taking the Falcon they had flown to the farthest corners of the galaxy. Doing work for the Resistance, looking for supplies, helping those that were still oppressed by the last weak echoes of the First Order. Ben, he couldn't come out and do that sort of work. But Rey had picked on something she'd offered him a long time ago. With both Master Skywalker and Leia gone, she still needed someone to teach her.
And she believes in Ben Solo.
"What'd you think?" She'd brought the subject up while they had a meal together. That sort of event didn't happen often when they first started this new journey but it something she tried to encourage as much as possible. Even BB-8 seemed to be improving when it came to be sharing a room with Ben these days. "We could clean a little the main deck, make some more room to train."
