Chapter Text
When Jyn had seen Cassian walk out halfway through the council meeting, she was certain she would never see him again. Abandoned in the cavernous room, surrounded by people shouting at her, she'd struggled to find the hope she was trying to inspire in them.
But here he was now - and with a small army behind him! He was still standing there, still smiling at her.
Jyn walked slowly around him, caught in his orbit, never taking her eyes off his.
"I'm not used to people sticking around when things go bad."
Cassian leaned in.
"Welcome home."
It was an invitation, and Jyn took it. She caught him by the lapels of his jacket and pressed her lips firmly against his.
