Summary
Rey was still trembling. Horrified that the weight in her arms would vanish like it had before. She clings tighter, even holding her breath as if that would do anything.
It was that sensation, that emptiness, that had kept her awake for months. She would fall asleep and then jolt forward with the same momentum that he had fallen back. It was a sickly sort of feeling that accompanied the awareness that the Force doesn’t play fair. Just as soon as he had found her, he was gone again and gone for good.
Or so it seemed.
“Rey?”
+++
Rey realizes what she's been looking for isn't far from where she started.
OR...Rey revives Ben over a year after Exegol and finds the life she was searching for.

Summary
After the disastrous Scipio Olympics in 2018, Ben Solo is forced to step away from hockey, disgraced and injured. And Rey Palpatine, the world champion figure Skater from the UK, leaves with fourth place. Still an incredible feat but her grandfather paid for a gold medal and won’t tolerate mediocrity.
Both are deeply affected by what happened in Scipio and committed to hiding for as long as they can. But when Maz Kanata and Luke Skywalker come up with the idea of making them a skating pair, the concept is too enticing not to try. However, the less-than-ideal introduction reveals that perhaps the duo is already acquainted.
So it's probably hopeless. Probably.
{Figure Skating AU. Former hockey player Ben. Emotionally neglected figure skater Rey. Nothing groundbreaking lmao}
[Title based on the song with same name by Bibio]

Summary
“The Resistance would never trust you enough to agree to negotiations,” she told him after a few minutes.
“It is fortunate, then, that I have no intention of negotiating with anyone. I will graciously offer up their General, and the Resistance will return my wife in exchange. There are no other options.”
Well, he could also kill them all and take his wife from the top of a hill of corpses…but that hardly needed being said. Besides, he was fairly certain that option wouldn’t endear him to his runaway bride. For this to be clean, he needed a fair exchange to occur.
He could see her starting to panic, her eyes darting around the corners of the small, stark room as she searched for an answer. She knew as well as Kylo did that the Resistance would do a lot to get Leia Organa back. Even sacrifice one of their own.
“Who…?” she asked at last, “Who is your wife?”
