Poe never received Rey's message.

During the night, General Organa received word that the First Order was on the move again. This time, it was information and she wanted the flow stopped. Before the sun was up, she'd sent Poe and three other pilots to find the source of the transmission and destroy it. Cripple the communications and chaos would follow, at least for a little while.

Three X-Wings went out, but none came back. Instead, what limped back to base was a small, beat up shuttle that had seen better days during the Rebellion. Jessika had managed to get the rickety old heap to work again while Snap made sure Poe made it on. The mission was a success, but all three pilots had been injured thanks to faulty intelligence about the sheer amount of guards that had been assigned to that comm station. While they day had been one, it'd been at a cost.

No one was allowed in while the pilots were being treated but once they were settled in to spend some time recovering, the medic on duty left with strict instructions that Poe was to stay put and rest. He was pretty banged up and since the Resistance's supply of bacta was running so short, it was only used in dire situations. Cracked ribs and such would mend on their own in time and that meant that Poe Dameron was grounded.

"Poe's right it won't be easy." He announces honestly, the tone in his voice and the way his arms cross over his chest giving a way more of just how difficult fighting the First Order will be rather than his words. They were far from down from the count and while they had dealt a crippling blow by taking out their most dangerous weapon the entire Organization would only double their efforts from here on out.

"Look you guys I'm not going to lie but I'm probably the worst person to rely on in this situation. The First Order prohibits just about everything we do, relationships are just another thing that gets in the way, but what I have with both of you is special - it makes me stronger. I don't want to lose that." Reaching out again this time to touch both Poe and Rey at the same time before he tugs the jedi closer to Poe's bedside with him.

Nothing in life was ever easy, especially when they were in the middle of a war. However, Rey didn't want to lose either guy. They were both special to her. She was used to fighting to survive on Jakku....why wasn't she fighting for both of them, Finn wanted to do it...if Poe could accept this too, then maybe what they have could stand a chance.

"I honestly, don't know what I'm doing either but...I can't imagine my life without either of you two. " She goes to Poe's bedside a little more quickly than she would have done thanks to Finn's tug.

"I'm used to fighting, everyday, and if I can have you two....that'll be more than enough for me. " more than enough in this life time and the next. She reached out to take Poe's hand, hoping he would want to be in this crazy relationship with them.

The decision seemed to weight heavily on Poe's mind. He remembered what it was like to be so young and in a way, he was envious. It was another reminder of why he fought so hard and why he let himself get worn out; so others could have things like this. He never imagined he'd be able to, though.

Huffing, he let his fingers tangle with Rey's even as he licked at his lip only to end up pulling it between his teeth. If he could move any closer to Finn, he'd be pressed up against his side, but moving still hurt a bit and while he'd never admit it, he wasn't about to try it.

"Well then, I suppose we're all stuck with each other then."

"You suppose? I'm finally a big deal and you just suppose?" With a dramatic sigh Finn drops down against Poe's bed with a wide smile to show his words are just a way of cutting through all the tension that's been building in the air since they got clearance to visit Poe. In reality Finn could not help but feel satisfied to know the other two felt the way they did and at least wanted to try and see things through no matter how crazy things might get.

"Come on Rey." Finn warns the young jedi before giving the hand he is holding on to a firm tug to bring him down on the edge of the the bed with them. He's not going to let her off easy either.

"Now it sounds like I missed a lot last night." Someone's going to have to tell him all the embarrassing stuff he missed. The only question is who's going to spill the other details first?
