Jyn dreamed vividly. There were people arguing in the white light; whenever she tried to talk to them, she ended up being pulled further and further away. The whiteness turned into her home on Coruscant where she was sitting with her papa showing him her drawing. She had been very proud of it and was surprised when her papa looked sad and hugged her. Her father released her from his embrace and Jyn found herself on Lah'mu the day Krennic arrived. In her dream, Jyn knew what was going to happen and tried to warn her parents but found her voice was gone. Her mother was dragging her away from the house and she tried to resist; going to the cave meant her mama was going to die.

Jyn!

Her mother shouted her name and when Jyn turned to look at her mother everything changed again and she was back on Yavin IV standing over Cassian as he lie unconscious in the medbay. She could still hear her name being called in the distance, but she stayed put. Cassian needed her right now. She went to grab his hand but all turned white and she was standing alone on Scarif in the sand. It was deathly quiet as if nobody was around except her; not even nature made a sound. She looked up and saw the Death Star looming in orbit, preparing to fire; the emerald green streak shooting across the sky into the ocean.

Jyn!

Someone grabbed her hand gently from behind and she twirled to see Cassian standing there, looking down with kind eyes. His hand was cold in her warm one as he tugged her closer. He placed his other hand on her cheek and Jyn closed her eyes, preparing for what was to come next. She was ready; she wanted this.

"Jyn,"

Jyn's eyes fluttered open, sensitive to the light above her. She had a mask over her mouth, administering cool air. She blinked hard, confused as to where she was.

"Jyn,"

She turned to see Cassian sitting beside her with dark shadows under his eyes. She slightly frowned, confused as to what was going on. Where was she? Then it all hit her at once: Commenor, Kavis, bioweapon, Arhul Nemo, the dress and the facility. Her heart sped up remembering why she was on Folor Base; she was sick.

"Hey, it's okay," Cassian said gently. "You're okay."

Jyn opened her mouth to speak but her throat hurt and felt swollen. She wanted to remove the mask but knew better. A heavy feeling in her right hand made her realise Cassian was holding her hand. Jyn wanted to cry; why? She did not know precisely except she had the worst luck and when matters went bad, people left her. Yet here Cassian was, holding her hand by her side, looking as if he had stayed there constantly. She tightened her grip, offering a weak smile as she fought to stay awake.

"Bodhi and I found Dr. Gadreel on Lothal," Cassian explained. "You're on the way to recovery."

Jyn hummed, knowing something good must have happened for her to feel somewhat better. Her chest didn't feel as heavy.

"You've been asleep for two weeks," Cassian said with a sigh. "By the time Bodhi and I got back, you were deteriorating quicker than Dr. Gadreel would have liked." Cassian paused, watching Jyn as she struggled with her condition. They had said she wouldn't be able to talk straight away; a side effect of the cure. "Try and get some sleep." He let go of her hand and pulled something out of his front pocket. "You left your kyber necklace on Commenor with Arhul Nemo." He placed it in her hand, covering it with his.

Jyn curled her fingers around Cassian's and he smiled as the gesture. "I'm here for you, Jyn. Just get better."

...

Two Months Later

Jyn moved her head side to side to crack it. She stretched her arms in front of her and twisted to crack her back. She had been bedridden for far too long. She was sick of the tiny, isolated room they had put her in, and she was tired to the medical outfit they still insisted she wear.

"Ready to get out of here?" Dr. Gadreel said cheerfully.

"You have no idea," Jyn replied. "Do you know where my clothes are?"

"Sorry, but no. I can ask around for something for you to change into."

Jyn sat straight on the edge of the bed as Dr. Gadreel listened to her heart and lungs. Her coughing had stopped completely only a week ago and her chest no long rattled.

"Your heart sounds fine but your lungs are still weak," Dr. Gadreel said.

Jyn slumped her shoulders. "So I'm stuck here?"

Dr. Gadreel smiled. "I will speak to Dr. Venral, but you can leave Folor Base today. We won't be permitting you to return to your full duties, maybe something light until you're fully recovered."

Better than nothing, Jyn thought grimly.

Bodhi came by a few hours later holding a black bag. "I heard you are being discharged today."

"Yeah," Jyn said with a smile. For the past two month, Bodhi had been working at Folor Base, honing his mechanical engineering skills. It had been good to have a constant presence after Cassian was called back to Delta Base under Draven's orders.

Bodhi handed her the bag. "My friend, Sarli said you can have these."

Jyn peeked into the bag to find simple, thick black leggings, a long grey shirt, underwear and a hair brush. Jyn looked back up at Bodhi.

"So who is this Sarli?"

"She's a mechanic here; I met her on my first day," Bodhi replied.

Jyn tilted her head slightly to assess Bodhi as he became flustered. "Do you work with her a lot?"

Bodhi nodded. "Yeah, she's been great. She's very nice and has a great sense of humour."

Jyn smiled. "She sounds nice."

"It's been good making new friends here after they disbanded Rogue One."

Cassian had told Jyn the news almost two months earlier when she was recovered enough to talk.

"I'm sure Rogue One will be put back together," Jyn said assuring.

Bodhi shrugged lazily. "Maybe. I heard everyone has accepted additional training on Delta Base under the command of General Willard, but who knows how long that will take."

"Did they offer you training?" Jyn asked.

"They want me to train here on Folor Base first," he replied. "Can't complain. I like it here."

"Well don't get too comfortable," Jyn said standing up. "I'm gonna change."

"Right, I'll see you out in the hanger."

Jyn walked into the hanger in her new outfit, glad to finally be out of white. Dr. Venral gave her a pair of alliance issued boots that had been sitting in requisition and a new thigh holster. All she needed now was a blaster and a dagger. Her fingers twitched as she remembered stabbing that man right before she escaped that facility. She could still remember the look on his face and how easy it was to drive the knife in. Jyn just hoped she never had to do that again.

Jyn's orders were to board a U-Wing transport and return to Delta Base where she was to speak with Willard and Draven about the events that led to her infection. Everyone else had been interviewed except her and, to be honest, Jyn barely remembered much. Still, this was Draven she was dealing with, and if cooperating helped get Rogue One back together, then she would rake her brain for every last fragment of memory.

From the outside, there did not appear to be anyone in the U-Wing as she walked over. Bodhi was to the side speaking with a few engineers and her heart dropped knowing he would be staying behind. At least he finally looked happy for once. Jyn stepped up into the U-Wing and let her bag drop on the floor as she made to sit down. Movement at the comm station startled her and she nearly jumped.

"Cassian!"

The major had been standing out of view at the communication station and turned to accept her embrace. It was so good to see her up and about looking healthy. Her embrace was tight as she burrowed her head into his chest, warmth from her piercing their clothes and into him.

"Jyn," he said happily. "I heard you were being discharged any day now, so I came myself to bring you back to Delta Base."

Jyn loosened her grip to look up at him. "Where have you been?"

"Assignment for General Draven," he replied. "Had to go alone."

Jyn frowned at that. "What were you doing?"

Cassian hesitated. "It's nothing."

Jyn held her ground. "Cassian! Tell me. I thought you trusted me."

"I do," he replied earnestly. "I do, but... it was an assassination."

Jyn opened her mouth but firmly closed it. The last assassination he had been on was to kill her father on Eadu. The atmosphere around them sparked at the memory of the argument they had after escaping Eadu. Jyn lowered her head, watching the space between their feet. "Who?"

"An imperial agent of Castell," he replied. "He's killed many rebel spies over the years and when Draven finally found him, we had to act."

Jyn slowly nodded. "So he was an imperial spy?"

"Yes," Cassian confirmed. "He had been working with Moff Ssaria on Castell."

"And it took you weeks to kill him?" Jyn asked sceptically.

Cassian's face dropped slightly under the scrutinizing gaze of Jyn Erso. "It wasn't as simple as taking up position on a building and waiting. I had to go undercover to learn his movements. He was a very careful agent."

Jyn rubbed her face as she smiled. "I don't know why I'm acting like this."

They both knew why she was acting like this. Cassian placed his hands on her shoulders. "Its okay, Jyn. We gotta go, though. General Draven is waiting."

...

4ABY: Chandrila

"That was the worst night of my life," Cassian murmured as he and Jyn lay side-by-side looking up at the ceiling.

"It wasn't so bad," Jyn replied.

"She cried all night."

Jyn smirked. "She's been worse."

Cassian groaned, rolling onto his stomach. "How could she have been worse?"

Jyn sat up and hugged her knees. "We got... what? Three hours of sleep? While you were away I went several nights with less than that."

At the end of their bed in her bassinet Kalei gurgling away happily. Jyn chuckled while Cassian groaned again.

"What time did Han get back?" Cassian asked.

"I think I heard him come in before dawn," Jyn replied, getting up. "We may have to wake him in time for the wedding."

"Can see why Leia didn't want to come," Cassian remarked wryly.

"The wedding is in five hours," Jyn reminded her husband. "I'll take Kalei outside so you can get a couple hours sleep, then we can swap."

Jyn found Han asleep on the sofa with a pillow over his head. Jyn coughed back a laugh and quietly made her way over to the kitchen. She felt so happy having her husband back and being surrounded by their friends again. Kalei sucked her fingers while watching her mother pour a cup of herbal tea. How her baby daughter could stay awake with little sleep after being passed around all night, Jyn would never know. It had been exhausting just watching everyone and retelling anecdotes from their time on Rogue One.

Sipping her tea, Jyn remembered the last time they worked as a team on Rogue One. It had been months before the Battle of Endor and they all knew it was going to be their last mission together onboard the shuttle. Their stolen imperial shuttle had seen a lot over the years; Eadu, Scarif, Hoth, Coruscant and many other worlds. In the end, the team of Rogue One had stood together, drinking Corellian whisky while they watched Rogue One go up in flames. Later, Jyn was also sure that was the night she got pregnant.

Of course when Endor came it would have been a good idea to keep the shuttle rather than burn it, but no one could chastise them for it as setting Rogue One on fire had been part of the mission.

Four hours later, Jyn combed her fingers through her hair as she let it fall down past her shoulders. She had her new dress on and while she would never admit it, it felt damn comfy. Kalei had finally passed out on the bed and her parents were hoping she would sleep through the ceremony.

"Lovely dress," Cassian said, taking her in. "Lovely surprise."

Jyn stepped on her toes to kiss her husband. She had missed this; she had missed him. "This is Bodhi's wedding so of course I'm going to make an effort."

Cassian took in her dress again. "I am almost certain this dress is nicer than the one you wore on our wedding day."

Jyn rolled her eyes. "My wedding dress was a gift from Leia, so if you insult the dress, you insult Leia."

Cassian laughed. "You're right, what was I thinking?"

They kissed again, allowing their hands to roam each other. "You did like it."

Cassian smiled as he kissed her. "I preferred it on the floor."

With one last kiss, Jyn pulled away. "We had better get a move on or we'll be late."

"Is Han ready?"

Jyn nodded. "He's waiting outside."

Cassian carefully picked Kalei up, resting her head on his shoulder. "You know," he began softly; "it feels like we have two children at the moment."

Jyn grinned. "Han is just hung over."

"A hung over baby," Cassian murmured. "I've seen him drunk many times over the years, but never that drunk or that hung over."

Jyn was sure it may have something to do with Leia and how busy she had been, but Jyn refrained from saying anything. Leia had confided in her and she would not break it. "Ready?"

Cassian gently kissed Kalei. "Do you have her carrier?"

"It's out the front with Han," Jyn replied.

"Then let's go see Bodhi get married."
