She was, though. She was breathtaking and beautiful, everyone knew.
Finn's arm wrapped around her waist gently, moving close and intending to change her mind, but she continued on and he smiled. That was okay. He'd work every day to change her mind.
"Sometimes," he admitted. "I used to like wandering the surface sometimes, but Poe and I usually stayed home. When you came into our lives, we got out a lot more. Whenever and wherever you wanted to go, we tried to be by your side. At least one of us, most of the time.
"But back then, things were a lot busier. We were usually confined to the Underworld. That's why, when you had to come to the surface-..." He didn't know how to describe it. And he didn't have to. "But that's all in the past now. We don't have to be separated anymore."
He wondered if Demeter was even still around, if she knew of Rey's return or about any of this. If she ever approached them, Finn wouldn't let her take Rey again.
Her footsteps came to a slow halt, giving Finn the chance to hold her without her moving. They looked like a handsome couple, walking down the shoreline, enjoying the sun and the ocean. Poe would feel an echo of their happiness, and Rey would make sure to take plenty of pictures to show him. Technology really came in handy for moments like these.
"...Because both of you couldn't leave the Underworld." One of them always had to remain. All three of them couldn't walk the surface without there being some prophecy bringing doom, or someone thinking the end of days was near. That was a memory that stuck out the most to Rey. She couldn't be out with both her husbands.
But that wasn't an issue anymore. The old ways were gone, and who knows what remained of their pantheon.
"When I came to the surface, I had to leave you behind..." Rey finished softly, moving to place her hands on top of Finn's, her fingers sliding in the space between his.
"No, we don't have to be separated, and I hope you don't feel like I've done that." Doing dates between two people rather than the three of them.
