[His smile turned sweeter and made her feel radiant, and the ache in Jyn's heart only intensified to see it, to watch as he returned the gesture and touched her still-damp hair, too.
Her own smile ticked a few degrees wider at how quickly he reached out for her, bridging what little gap remained between them, how quickly and gently he wrapped his calloused fingers around hers, giving her reassurance again that yes, this was what he wanted, too, it wasn't just her.
Jyn wanted to offer some sort of an answer but found the words lacking. She hoped that her unguarded smile and the light in her eyes were enough to show just how much she liked the idea, too.
For as difficult as it was to lay themselves bare in front of each other, Jyn was glad to have the opportunity to ... let each other in. Even if that meant letting each other see their awkwardness, their shyness, the vulnerability that they couldn't show to anyone else in any other situation.
So - if Cassian thought he was rambling, Jyn was hanging on to every word. It was an understandable place for his mind to go, in any case. But - ]
My mind is with yours. But I also think that if you want to, I can borrow a shirt and you can wear the bottoms and we'll ... meet in the middle. Avoid making unncessary dirty laundry.
