Why does she do that to his poor heart?? The flutter in his chest when she says she doesn't want to miss more, that she's giving up a nap to just keep lounging with him and Sofia.
He grabs her hand when she teases it at his chest, bringing her fingers up to plant a kiss on her knuckles. "Honestly, I think she has probably already been expecting me to ask within a few days of your return. She will not mind."
His grandmother never minds. She's been obsessed with Sofia since day one, which seems to be an ongoing theme with everyone who meets her.
Still, if Jyn can be flirty, so can he! He already knows exactly where this is going. "Did you have something particular in mind? I am very open to suggestions."
"We're gonna make out so much," Jyn tells him, grinning, before she shifts to lay down again on the fluffy rug she loves so much, resting her head on Cassian's thigh. He makes a very good pillow and she missed that too. She missed everything, but she didn't know how much she would miss simply being with someone. They aren't doing anything of note, hanging out on a rug, but it's perfect.
Sofia keeps babbling to herself, no doubt having deep philosophical discussion with her llama, content it seems to entertain herself, but when Jyn lays down she pauses. She looks at her llama and tucks him and the bra hat under her arm, toddling over to the basket of blankets to shove her chubby hands in and pull out one of the bottom blankets because of some incomprehensible toddler logic.
She drags it back over to Cassian and Jyn, trailing half the other blankets behind her once the basket tips over, and gingerly tries to put it on Jyn without letting go of her llama at all. Luckily Jyn helps her along and she figures Cassian will do the rest.
The open admission has him grinning, ducking his head because the sheer affection he has for Jyn is simply too much in this moment!! They're gonna make out, so much. He runs his fingers through her hair when she settles on his leg, beaming down at her. "There is no reason we cannot do a little of that later too but. Tomorrow will be better. For the so much part, obviously."
As soon as Cassian picks up on what his daughter is doing with the blanket, he helps her along without making it seem like he's helping, wanting to instill in her tiny baby self a sense of independence.
Sofia stands up and looks very pleased with her work, giggling as her you're welcome. She's still working on saying it: de nada is easier, if garbled whenever she tries. Her other response now however is to duck over and plant an open mouthed (but fortunately not slobbery) smooch on Jyn's forehead, though it winds up closer to her eyebrow in Sofia's attempts to multitask and not drop her llama.
"Oh yes, I'm very tired. Dulces sueños. Te amo, te amo." Jyn closes her eyes, pretending to sleep, but honestly laying down and closing her eyes... makes her want to sleep a little bit. Maybe this was a bad idea.
No, no. There is a toddler in the room, she won't be able to actually fall asleep.
"God, I missed this so much." Her eyes are still closes, she's still snuggled beneath the blanket, but the words are breathed out like she has come to some dramatic revelation. She knows she misses this, half her text messages to Cassian are about how much she misses this, but it doesn't stop her from saying it again.
Content that Jyn has been successfully tucked in, Sofia backs up a few steps, then flops over, her attention back on her llama - though she's still close enough that she periodically peeks up to look at Jyn on the floor. She is clearly going to tell her llama all about Jyn, but she keeps her voice hushed, not wanting to wake her up!
"I know," Cassian says softly, brushing his fingers through the top of her hair. It's different having her here versus texting and talking about it daily. It's such a relief to sit beside her and feel exactly the same as when she left. "We are very happy to have you back home. I missed you a lot too, Jyn. But you have had a long traveling day, if you really want to take a nap until dinner. I am going to make your favorite."
