She hadn't expected anything else, really, and Jyn nods again, a slight little movement, still not yet able to look up at him again. Of course they're the only ones. She didn't see it or hear it, but the silence over their comms spoke volumes, and she'd have been surprised if Cassian had suggested any alternatives. There was never going to be any rescue. Try as she might to remind herself that they all knew the risks when they came along, though, and that there was always every chance that they'd be walking into their own deaths, it's hard to reconcile. As a girl, she lost her parents, and a few years later, she lost Saw, and now, despite having only known Bodhi and Chirrut and Baze for a matter of days, if that, it's hard not to feel like she's lost another family all over again.
Stupid, she thinks. This is where caring about people gets her. This is always what happens, in one way or another. Anything important to her gets snatched away.
Cassian is still here, though, and she curls her fingers slightly in his hospital gown where her hand is splayed out in lieu of clutching at the necklace that hasn't yet been returned to her. "I thought so," she mumbles. "I saw them. Before I woke up just now, I mean." She doesn't add that she'd seen him, too, and doesn't stop to consider that a few minutes ago, she'd said only that she couldn't sleep, not that she had already tried it. There was probably never any way he was going to believe that, anyway.
