[ She doesn't need his help getting out, exactly, but she does prompt him to help her out by putting his knee out because she's small and he's a giant and she's not going to neglect to use her resources just to prove a point. Her continued survival has proven that point already. She's not here to prove her capabilities to anyone — she's well aware of them, and so is Ben.
So Rey gets her heel on his leg and grabs onto the edges of the hole, which have cooled down partially and then heated up in the midday sun so it's touch and go. Luckily she's wearing gloves. She hoists herself up and wriggles in the process of adjusting her grip while bearing all her weight. It's an exciting process that involves almost kicking him in the head to get herself momentum.
Anyway. The really exciting part is when she's almost out but she does have a little bit of difficulty pulling herself up so there's more definitive wriggling and squirming of her butt getting out of there. Probably just enough to get him to reach out to help and find it was mostly unnecessary as she pulls herself free a moment later.
Just. All kinds of teenage ass in his face. Luckily she wears that mostly shapeless wrap that is completely hanging loose and not covering her Actually Shapely Butt in Those Pants while this is going on.
Anyway it's fine. I'm sure Ben isn't bothered at all.
She slides down the side of the hull and pulls her canteen out to chug a portion of what's left. She's not going to be able to find more, so she only drinks like a quarter of it. Some for Ben now, and some for both of them after they've got the fuel lines. It's rationing. If he can free himself successfully, when he comes down, she's wiping water stray water spray from her lips into her mouth and extending the canteen to him. ]
