Update! “Friendzoned”    

{Chapter 4}

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.

“I talked with Han,” he said.

“He’s an asshole.”

“I know.
But he was sad you broke up, and…anyway…um…he was right about some
stuff. I’m kinda awkward and I guess I should’ve said something a long
time ago, but…I’m your density.”

Dead silence took over the room,
except for the creaking of crickets. Cassian wasn’t entirely sure how
well he’d done, but he felt pretty good about it.

Jyn slowly rolled back over. Sat up.

“Cassian,” she said slowly, patiently, “are you high?”

“No. I don’t know where to get drugs.”

“Are you drunk?” she continued in the same tone.

“Yes,” he said. “Very.”
