Update! “Friendzoned”

thestarbirdfromtheashes:

{Chapter 3}

It
was his role, he knew: the brother figure. The best friend. The one Jyn
always came to when a boy broke her heart, and she needed him to put
the pieces back together. Or when she needed to laugh or do something or
complain or work out or hike or study or go grab a bite to eat or a
drink or she needed money. He was everything to her the way she was to
him.

And Cassian Andor was nothing if not a pragmatic man, and he would never do anything, ever, to fuck that up.

So it was a damn good thing that he was absolutely, one hundred percent, not in love with Jyn Erso.

“So,” she said, “you and Erso. Mm?” Cassian raised his eyebrows and waited politely. “Are you guys…y’know.” She made the universal hand gestures for y’know. Cassian scowled.

“No, of course not,” he said. “We’re just friends.”

Not that he was going to remind them that she was dating that awful Solo guy.

“Really?” Mara asked, green eyes wide. “Just like…friends friends?”

“Yes. Just friends.”
