Cassian Andor/Jyn Erso, 2485 words, Angst with a Happy Ending, AU
Chirrut stares at him, on the point of saying something, but when he nods silently Cassian turns away, to stop as he asks, “Will you follow her?”
Cassian turns to watch Jyn at the bar, eyes tracing over every detail as if to imprint them into his memory. She is laughing at something Bodhi is saying; relaxed in a way that dares anyone to ruin this moment.
“I don’t think so, Chirrut – she left for a reason and the way I treated her….she doesn’t owe me anything.” He looks back at the two men that have been his confidantes and his courage these last months and the corner of his mouth lifts in a small, sad smile.
“And Jyn? Will you miss her?”
“All the rest of my life.” He turns away, heading for the bar’s exit before anyone else can intercept him.
