    Summary

    Bridging the gap between "A New Dawn" and "Rebels."

    Three months after meeting on Gorse, Hera Syndulla and Kanan Jarrus take on an easy job to pay the bills. But this simple cargo run turns out to be more complicated than they anticipated- in more ways than one. Kanan and Hera have to maneuver through it all while trying to sort out their growing feelings for one another.

    The kiss was soft to the point of being chaste. When she pulled away he opened his eyes slowly, a hard line between his dark eyebrows.

    “What was that for?” he asked quietly.

    Hera started to speak but stopped. “I’m… I’m sorry,” she said. “I shouldn’t have done that.” She pulled away, but Kanan caught her by the hand.

    “Are you just going to walk away?” he asked.

    “Away from what?” The exasperation in her voice surprised even her.

    After a pause he said, “This.”

    Hera looked at their clasped hands instead of at his eyes. Her lekku swayed limply behind her back as she shook her head. “I don’t know what ‘this’ is.”

    Kanan tightened his hand around hers faintly. His voice was still soft. “Do you want to give up before finding out?” he asked.
