Ben Solo’s friend, Rey, is teaching him all about sex so he’ll know what to do when the time comes. Only trouble is, he gets so excited whenever she’s around all their lessons end almost before they begin.
Tired of embarrassing himself in front of the girl he loves, Ben decides to take matters into his own hands.
The Tipping Point -- a Rebel Side of Heaven one-shot for @ever-so-reylo <3
POV!
Ben almost texts her five different times before their first “date” to call the whole thing off.
It isn’t that he doesn’t want to kiss her, touch her. Learn what makes her feel good. Because he does. If he’s honest with himself, there really isn’t anything he wants more.
But he knows Rey’s offer to teach him what to do was made out of friendship at best, and pity at worst. In the end, this will do nothing but break his heart.
(He shows up to their first date anyway. The idea of kissing Rey Johnson, finally – he just isn’t strong enough to turn it down. He just hopes it doesn’t turn out to be one of the biggest mistakes he’s ever made.)
The Rebel Side of Heaven
“I could teach you,” Rey says, very matter-of-fact. “What it’s all about, I mean. What to do.”
Ben stares at her blankly for a very long moment, her meaning clearly not registering.
When he finally does get what she’s saying, the effect is immediate and explosive.
“What?” he sputters, eyes wide.
---------------- (In which Ben Solo is an awkward virgin, Rey is a friend who agrees to teach him about sex, and nothing goes according to plan.)
Chapter 1
The Rebel Side of Heaven
The effect all of this has on Ben – her current position on his lap, her running her hands back and forth along the collar of a jacket he’s still wearing; all of it – is impossible to miss. He looks up at her and swallows, his eyes suddenly glassy and unfocused.
As she continues to gently caress him, his eyes eventually drift down to her lips. And just like that, Rey can tell that whatever Ben was upset about when he came here tonight isn’t bothering him anymore.
He really has made progress since last week.
Chapter 3 is now on AO3 :D
For those of you waiting on an update to The Rebel Side of Heaven, I’m in a place right now with very spotty internet access. I hope to be able to update on Monday like usual but there’s a chance the update will be a day or two late.
It’s definitely coming though! Thanks for being patient with me.
The Rebel Side of Heaven
“Rey,” he says, his voice all but breaking on the word. Pleading with her.
He hesitates a moment, licking his lips, before leaning forward and desperately taking her hand.
“Ben,” she whispers, and takes him home.
Chapter 4 is now on AO3 :D
The Rebel Side of Heaven
“Is this okay?” Rey asks quietly, feeling at least as nervous as Ben looks.
He opens his mouth to answer her, but then closes it again and just nods, wordlessly. Like he doesn’t quite trust his voice right now.
Taking his assent as encouragement, Rey slowly closes the distance between them and gently, tentatively presses her lips to his.
Chapter 2 is now on AO3 :)
(Thank you SO MUCH to @jedi-summer-camp for her help with this fic!)
I see you are adding more chapters to the rebel side of heaven bUT!!!! youre NOT posting anyone!!!!!!! The wait is making me crazy 😭😭😭
Yeah — my initial estimate of how many chapters I’ll need to wrap everything up was a little off. So it’s gonna be twelve chapters now (because I want to include an epilogue, hee!) rather than ten. I hope you can forgive me for that. ;)
And the new chapter will be up tonight! Hope you enjoy it.
