thank you for the prompt!
“You look sad when –– when you think he can’t see you.”
Jyn looks up, startled. She’s been so engrossed in cleaning her blaster that she hasn’t even noticed Bodhi sitting down next to her. She blinks once, twice, not even having heard what he’d said. “Huh?”
He jerks his chin over at Cassian, who’s talking to Leia about some sort of Alliance-related business.
She scoffs, shaking her head. As if that extremely vague gesture explains anything. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Stop it,” he replies, bumping her shoulder with his own. Despite his words, there’s a small grin tugging at his lips. “You know exactly what I’m talking about.”
“If you think I’m sad, then you’re wrong. I’m having the time of my kriffing life here.”
Bodhi ignores her snark, which he usually does these days. He’s come a long way from the scared, Imperial pilot fresh out of the Bor Gullet’s lair, and she couldn’t be more proud of him. She’s glad he’d stuck around; so far, the rebellion has proved to be good for him.
Her, on the other hand? She’s surrounded by more people than she’s ever been in her life, and yet she can’t remember a time in which she’s felt so damn lonely.
It may or may not have to do with a certain Captain, who, despite Jyn’s heavy gaze, doesn’t seem to notice her staring. (Or –– really anything she does these days.)
