Cassian feels a little nervous, but also... calm. Steady. Being with Jyn always keeps him grounded. The idea of being a father is honestly terrifying, but doing it with Jyn feels less scary.
"You know even better than I do what all of it will entail for you. If you are ready, I am too."
Shara was with Kes for a longer time before they had Poe, but she always told him - when you know, you know. His own parents were barely together a year before they got married. He loves Jyn. His family loves her, and he loves hers in return. That's enough. Maybe this baby wasn't planned, but it doesn't mean that's a bad thing.
He squeezes her hands. "Forgive me if I am hoping for a baby and not a dinosaur."
Look, Jyn's parents were together for six months before they were married and adopting Bodhi so this is par for the course of maybe badly thought out decisions but Cassian has her back and that's all that matters. He's going to be a great dad and she's going to try very hard to be a great mom and their kid is going to be spoiled with all the love and affection it deserves.
"Well, that means we will have a baby and not a dinosaur with us on our next vaccine trip." Next summer, when their baby will be something of an infant still because Jyn is not going to stop their wanderlust way just because they have to pack extra diapers.
She looks up at him, chin resting on his chest. "I love you. Thank you for loving me, too."
"You still want to go next summer?" Of course she does, it absolutely doesn't surprise him, but he can't help but ask anyway. She was a very mobile baby, it stands to reason her own child would follow suit. Even just that brief little comment, the complete matter-of-fact way she notes it - it just reminds him how stubborn she is and how she won't let anything stop her from doing what she wants.
It's something he always admired about her, from day one.
Cassian smiles down at her, then lets go of her hands if only so he can wrap his arms comfortably around her. There's no way he wouldn't want to hold her after all this. "I love you too. And I am going to love wherever our life together takes us, baby and all."
"Of course I do. Those babies need to be vaccinated and we are the best equipped to do so." And their own baby will be vaccinated so he/she/it will be just a safe as they were. She knows Cassian wants to help them as much as she does, so she doesn't expect much push back as long as their baby is strong and healthy.
When his arms curl around her, her arms loop around his waist, sinking happily against him. It's so important to her that he loves and supports her and she feels a swell of affection for this brave, kind man.
"Come on, Captain. Let's go swimming before your romanticism makes me cry."
"Our first vacation as a family of three, huh?" He's not going to try to talk her out of it, he doesn't even want to. If it's something they're capable of, baby matters and all, Cassian is not opposed to it. The original trip brought them together in the first place.
He relaxes in her arms, kissing the top of her head. He loves Jyn implicitly and deeply, and for something so seemingly life-changing as a baby, he feels grounded beside her. He always does. "At least the salt would mesh together well."
At least she acknowledged his romanticism isn't going anywhere, especially now. With one more brief kiss, he tugs her towards the water and smiles softly the whole way.
