The moment we were back at the Crest, Din helped me change into new, clean clothes and had me go lay down immediately. I wasn’t complaining though. As we were landing back down onto the ground, he had tried to keep me from seeing Kuiil’s body where it was laying only a few meters away from the ship, but I had seen it and my heart broke. He was so close.

After he was sure I was good and settled in, he left to go take care of Kuiil. We both knew we couldn’t leave him like that, he deserved way better than that.

Din’s PoV

Before I left the ship again I put the kid in his pod and grabbed a shovel from the tool cabinet on the wall. I walked down the ramp and over to where he was. I sighed as I got closer realizing how short of a walk it was, he almost made it here with the kid. It wasn’t fair.

I began digging. The dirt here on Neverro was full of rocks and I set them aside as I came across them to mark the grave once it was finished. Once the hole was deep enough, I carefully lifted his body up off the ground and then lowered him into it.

“I’m sorry.” I mumbled.

I very rarely allowed myself to cry, but right now there was no reason not to. In fact, there was every reason to after everything we’d been through today. I was frustrated, pissed even. I was the one who asked him to come with us, it was my fault he died. Because of my plan he was now dead while the rest of us got to live. It wasn’t fair for him. But that was the sickest part of death, it never seemed to be fair.

I replaced the dirt over him. Once it was filled back up, I began to place the rocks over it to cover the grave and mark it.

About halfway through I heard cooing from beside me. I turned to see the kid padding up to me with Kuiil’s helmet in his little hands. It was nearly bigger than he was and he was struggling to carry it.

“You shouldn’t be here, kid.” I said.

He only continued towards me and held up the helmet a little more. I picked him and took it from him.  

“Thanks buddy.”

I found a larger rock and put the helmet over it and then placed it in the center of the pile. I put my free hand over the helmet.

“Ni su'cuyi, gar kyr'adyc, ni partayli, gar darasuum, Kuiil.” I said.  (“I’m still alive, but you are dead. I remember you, so you are eternal, Kuiil.”)

Then I stood up and began walking back to the ship.

“That’s something we say as Mandalorians, as a way to remember the ones we’ve lost. Especially ones who were close to you.” I explained to the kid as we walked, I was honestly trying to distract myself both from Kuiil and from what might be going on with Yn. I was terrified that it would be something much more serious than either of us were hoping.

“Sometimes you’ll have a really long list of names, that’s when it’s always the hardest. But when the list gets longer, you should always remember the saying, Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la. It means ‘Not gone, merely marching far away.’ They still live on in some way, even if they’re not physically here with us, they live on in our memory and in our hearts.”

Once I was back on the ship I went to check on Yn. I brought the kid with me and let him sit on the bed as I talked to her.

“You okay?” She asked the moment I was in front of her.

“I’m supposed to be asking you that.” I sighed.

“I don’t care, are you okay?” She asked again.

“Yeah, I guess.” I shrugged, “He didn’t deserve to die.”

She nodded sadly, “I know. Is everything taken care of though?”

“Yeah. The kid actually came down to help.” I chuckled half-heartedly as I remembered him waddling towards me.

“Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t even know he got out of his pod.” She apologized quickly.

“It’s fine.” I brushed it off, “I actually showed him some of the Mandalorian traditions, like what we say when someone that was close to us passes. I know he probably doesn’t understand much of it, but he’s technically a Mandalorian now.”

Yn smiled for a moment before shifting, clearly uncomfortable. I felt horrible for her right now, I hated seeing her like this.

“Are you okay? Is there anything I can do to help?” I asked.

She shook her head, “No, not really. Everything just hurts. How far is the closest medical facility?”

“Not sure. Let me go get us off Neverro and then I’ll find it and set our course for it then come back down and check on you?” I offered.

She nodded, “Okay, but will you take the kid with you? I want to close my eyes for a little bit without having to worry about him.”

“Yeah, absolutely.” I said, picking him back up, “You rest.”

Yn PoV

When Din got back he told me it'd be another two hours before we got to the facility. The ship was on autopilot so he could be down here to keep an eye on me.

“Din?” I called for him after about half an hour.

He came rushing back to our bunk from the kitchen, “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m fine. I was just going to ask if you would be willing to help me get up and shower before we get to the medical facility? I know I changed clothes like an hour ago but I just still feel gross from sweating for the past two days, and I’d feel a lot better if I had a shower before having someone looking all up in my… yeah.”

He chuckled a little, “Yes, I’ll help you. Do you want to do it now?”

“If you’re not busy, then yes, the sooner the better.”

“Alright, here let me help you up.” He said as I scooted you to the foot of the bed to him and allowed him to help me over to the refresher that held a small shower.

He carefully helped me undress and tossed my clothes to the side. Then he led me over to the running water. I sighed as the warm water ran over my sore body. I only felt slightly bad for Din getting wet since we left the curtain open so I could hold onto his arm to steady myself if I needed to. He still wore his helmet, but I wasn’t going to ask him about it. He knew he could take it off and I knew he'd do it when he was ready to.

Once I was done he wrapped a towel around my body and then handed me one to dry my hair. Instead of wrapping it in a towel to dry completely, I decided to just towel dry it some then just pull it back out of my face. Once I was done with that, he led me out to sit on the foot of our bed while he went to get clothes for me to put on.

He knew which leggings to grab, I had a certain pair that was always my go-to, I had picked them up before he found me actually. I knew I’d need them later on and I was glad I bought them.

“What shirt do you want?” He asked.

“Actually… can I wear one of yours please?” I asked sweetly.

“Only because I love you.” He said, laughing to himself and closing my drawer to open his to get a shirt. It was a simple black, three quarter length one that he only ever wore around the ship, or to sleep in.

After he helped me get dressed he went to go double-check that we were still on course while I laid back down. I closed my eyes for a little bit.

“Hey, Yn?” I woke up to Din saying my name and lightly shaking my foot lightly.

“Hm?” I hummed and slowly opened my eyes.

“I was just going to let you know, I’m out of the shower and I’m going to head up to the cockpit so we can land soon. Do you need anything before I go up?” He asked.

I shook my head no.

“Okay, I’ll be back soon.” He said before walking off.

I didn’t even remember him telling me he was going to shower. If he hadn't said anything I would have never known because he was already dressed and had all his armor back on.

He came back shortly after the ship was landed on one of their docking platforms.

As we walked in I held onto his arm. Luckily the kid was out cold in his pod, so we let him sleep on the ship with an activated comlink in his pod acting as a baby monitor.

“Have you had any more contractions since Neverro?” Din asked as we walked down a hall.

“Only two. One while you were taking care of… of Kuiil. And then the one in the shower.”

He nodded. As we walked into the room we were directed to. He had me sit down then went over to the lady at the desk. Luckily it was an actual person and not a droid, just because we had both developed a soft spot for IG-11 didn’t mean we suddenly liked droids now.

“Are you Mr.Djarin?” She asked.

“Yes, I contacted you earlier and explained our situation.” He said.

“Yes sir. Dr.Len will be ready to see your wife very shortly.” She said kindly.

“Thank you.” He said and began making his way over to me.

He hadn’t even sat down when they called for me. A nurse led us to a small room and had me change into a gown then lay on the bed.

“Okay so, I know you explained everything to the front desk but if you could explain it once more for myself and the doctor.” The nurse asked.

I looked over to Din to allow him to explain, “So I’m a bounty hunter, she’s a former one. I had to take care of some business, it wasn’t supposed to get messy. It was meant to be a fairly easy endeavor, we had a plan set and she was a part of the plan so she had to come with me, against both of our better judgment. Long story short it got messy quick. The whole thing lasted two days, the first day was just a lot of walking and she had a couple of contractions, nothing too serious. The second day was when everything happened. It was an onslaught of stress and emotions for everyone, especially Yn. As the day went on she kept getting more contractions, and we both knew she needed to get checked out as soon as possible.” Din explained.

The nurse nodded along. “Well, honestly I can probably correctly predict what is going on here without running any tests or having the doctor come in. We see this quite a bit actually.”

“Really?” I asked.

“Oh of course. We sit right in the middle of about four or five bounty hunter hubs, so we see quite a few bounty hunting families pass through.” She said.

“I never knew that.” I said thoughtfully.

“Not many do. Anyways, my guess is that you are suffering from extreme fatigue and your blood pressure is probably very high which can lead to stress on the baby. And, just off the record as a mother myself, having your baby a few weeks or even a month early, which is about where you’re at, isn’t going to be the end of the world and it doesn’t guarantee a complicated birth or an unhealthy baby, but that being said we obviously want to keep the baby in as long as it needs.”

I nodded in agreement.

“But, I’m not a doctor, only a nurse so I cannot give you an official diagnosis for what is going on so, I’m going to grab Dr.Len. I’ll be back shortly.” She said before walking out the door.

And sure enough, she was back in just a few minutes with another lady, presumably Dr.Len.

“Hello, I’m Dr.Len.” She said shaking my hand.

“Yn Djarin.” I greeted, “And that’s my husband.” I didn’t say his name because that was still something we needed to discuss.

“Nice to meet you both. So this your first?”

“Yes and no, we have an adopted son.” I said smiling at the thought of our little Clan.

“Awe, how cute. Do you know what you’re having?” She asked.

“Another boy.” Din said proudly.

“Oh, so I see you’re getting outnumbered.” She joked causing me and Din to let out a small laugh.

“Alright, let’s get to what you came here for, to check on you and your lil munchkin. First, I want to take your blood pressure.” She said.

She grabbed the cuff and placed around my arm then turned on the machine. It began to tighten around my arm. I winced a little as it grew even tighter then released.

“Oh, wow.” I heard the doctor mumble.

“What, what’s wrong?” I panicked slightly.

“It’s okay,” she said gently, holding hands up, “It’s alright. Your blood pressure is just quite a bit higher than where I would like it to be. But, this is something that can be fixed. Try not to worry about it, that’s not going to solve anything. Nurse Ali already told me what happened, your body is exhausted. And I am going, to be honest with you, giving birth, either naturally or with surgery, is going to take a toll on your body. Now, I’m not sure what your plan is, but I do know that with your body in the condition that it is in right now, you would have to have surgery.”

My eyes went wide. I didn’t realize how bad I had gotten in just a few short days. I didn’t want to do surgery to have the baby.

“Okay, so judging by your reaction, surgery is not something you’re hoping for. Don’t worry there are ways to help your body heal, while also hopefully getting your blood pressure down.” She turned to Din, “And dad, this is where you come into play,” she said before looking back at me, “I want you to go on bed rest, strict bed rest.”

My eyes widened again.

“I know it’s hard for you former bounty hunting moms, but it is for your own sake and your baby’s so I suggest you do it. A common misconception of bed rest is that you have to stay in bed. You don’t. Just no strenuous activity, but since yours is strict bed rest I would say no being on your feet for more than ten minutes, and have at least a half-hour break between periods of time when you’re on your feet that long. If your feet or back or anything really, ever start to hurt, that’s your sign to sit, if sitting in a chair is uncomfortable, try sitting in bed, just no standing for more than ten minutes. Okay?” She asked.

I nodded.

“Good. And it is your responsibility to make sure she follows these rules.” She said to Din.

“Yes, ma’am.” He nodded.

“Alrighty, I have to go see another patient, but Avi here is going to do a quick exam just to double-check everything and then do a quick ultrasound for you real quick. Take care.” She said.

Din and I both bid her goodbye and thanked her before she left.

“Okay, so the first thing we need to do is make sure that the contractions you were having were just contractions and you weren’t actually dilating at all.” She said with a slightly apologetic tone.

“Okay.” I nodded, I knew it would have to happen.

“I know, it’s everybody’s favorite part.” She joked.

“Oh totally.” I said sarcastically as we all laughed.

“So have you picked out a name?” She spoke as she did the examination instead of letting awkward silence settle in around us.

“I think we both have a couple of ideas but we haven’t talked much about it. So no, not yet, but times ticking.” I sighed.

“Well,” She stood from her stool and rolled away, “times not ticking away too fast. You’re all good, no dilating.”

I let out a sigh of relief.

“I’m going to step out so you can get redressed then I’ll come back and we can do the ultrasound.”

“Okay.” I said as she made her way to the door. Once she was gone, Din helped me up and get changed back into the clothes I came here in. Then he poked his head out to let her know she could come back in.

“So I know a lot of bounty hunting families usually don’t get many scans so I wanted to make sure you got at least on last one before he gets here.” She explained as she set up the machine.

“Thank you.” I said.

“Of course.” She smiled.

We continued making small talk as she did the ultrasound. I held Din’s hand the whole time and when she turned the screen around to show us, I felt him squeeze my hand tightly. Tears pricked up behind my eyes at the sight of our little bean. It was only a matter of time before he was here, which both terrified me and made me feel excited.

“Okay, well he’s looking good, I’ll print a few pictures out for you then you’ll be on your way.” She said while pressing a few buttons and then handing me a couple of towels to wipe the gel off with.

She printed them out and handed them to me. Din helped me up and we went back to the front.

“You have a good day.” The lady at the front said.

“We haven’t paid yet.” I said in confusion.

“Don’t worry about it.” Avi said waving us off.

“We couldn’t.” I insisted and Din agreed.

Avi walked up closer to us and sighed slightly, “I grew up in a bounty hunting family. I know the credits are hard to make stretch, especially when you already have one little one at home. So please, let us cover this for you, think of it as a baby gift.” She said with a kind smile.

“Thank you, we really appreciate it.” Din said.

“Yes, that’s very kind of you.”

“You’re welcome, now get going, you have bed rest to get to.” She joked.

We laughed as we walked off and back to the ship. Once we were back Din was not playing around with the bed rest. He had me give him to coordinate for Avis after he had me settled on our bed. He found a couple of extra pillows and brought them down so I could sit up comfortably.

“Alright, so Avis is quite literally on the opposite side of the galaxy. It’s going to take at least four days to get there, and that’s without stopping, but we’re going to need to refuel tomorrow and probably pick up some supplies so I’d say probably five maybe six days until we get there.” Din said after he came back down from the cockpit.

“Okay, I’ll need to let them know we’re coming when we’re about a day out.” I said sitting up a little more.

He nodded. “Are you hungry at all? I was going to make the kid some food.”

“Yeah. Can I go sit in the kitchen with you?” I asked.

“If you want to, yeah.”

I nodded and moved so he could help me up. He led me into the kitchen and I sat at the table with the kid.

“Hey, buddy.” I said smiling at him. Though I had seen him earlier it felt like I hadn’t seen him all day since I’d been in bed all day.

He giggled and smiled up at me.  After we ate, I decided to stay at the table and get some stuff done. I asked Din to bring me anything we had for the Bean so I could make a list of things that we still needed. It was a long list and I knew it was, but we needed to get what we were missing.

Din took the kid up into the cockpit to play for a little bit. I laid out everything we had for him. So far we had the blanket that we got with the kid’s, the few clothes from Omera, a few onesies that we’d picked up here and there on supply runs as well as a few other odds and ends. A lot of what we needed still was furniture for his room when we get to Avis.

I had an old friend that was still on Avis who knew that I was pregnant and was traveling with an old friend with a foundling. She had been the one taking care of my place there. She had already moved a new dresser into one of the small rooms in my apartment and was working on finding another one for the Bean.

I told her a week ago that I was coming back and she was working on getting it ready for us. She had never met Din, but she knows who he is because of how much I’ve told her. Besides Din, she was one of the people I was the closest to.

After I folded everything back up, I had nothing better to do so I decided to get up and clean the kitchen a little. It wasn’t that messy so it wouldn’t take that long, I would be fine. Plus I was tired of sitting. My back was to the doorway and I didn’t hear him walk back in as I washed the last bowl.

I heard him slump against the wall and turned around to face him, the bowl still in my hands.

The moment I saw him the bowl was slipping from my grasp and onto the floor. Luckily it wasn’t breakable so it didn’t shatter upon impact with the hard floor.

“Din-I… you.” I stuttered.

“You’re not supposed to be on your feet for long.” He pushed off the wall and walked towards me, placing his hands on my waist once he was close enough.

His entire body language screamed anxiety though he tried to hide it, and he looked down at me with a nervous look on his face.

My hands reached up slowly and rested against his cheeks, the stubble on his cheeks pricking at my hands slightly. I couldn’t believe that I was looking at him right now.

“Smile.” I said, already smiling myself.

He forced an obviously fake smile.

“That’s not your real smile.” I said.

“You’ve never seen my smile, how do you know that’s not my real smile?” He said chuckling slightly, his true smile finally revealing itself to me.

I felt tears prick at my eyes as the emotions of the situation hit me. This just solidified the fact that we were married and it was the first time I had seen his face since we were children. Sure I had held his face before when we’ve kissed under the protection of darkness, but that does little to create a real image of what he looks like. He was so handsome, beautiful even.

“Din, you’re beautiful.” I mumbled and I felt his cheeks heat up under my hands.

“It’s nothing compared to you.” He said smoothly and leaned down to press a kiss to my lips.

I kept my hands on his cheeks, but they slowly crept up into his hair and ran through the soft curls. This earned a small hum of pleasure from him. I pulled away giggling slightly. I ran my fingers through his hair one last time before the clasped behind his neck. I didn’t realize how long his hair had gotten, it was falling in front of his eyes.

“You need a haircut.” I commented.

He sighed and his shoulders dropped a little as he cracked an amused smile.

“You haven’t even seen my face for a full five minutes and you’re already making adjustments?” He teased.

“No, I just want to be able to see your eyes better. Your hair is covering them some. Sorry I want to see my handsome husband's entire face.” I said sweetly.

“Well, I can’t say no to that.” He said leaning down to press another kiss to my lips.

“I love you.” I said after we pulled apart.

“I love you too, always have, always will.” He said.

We stood there for a few more moments.

“You should probably go sit.” He said and I sighed.

“You’re right, I’m actually going to go take a nap. You should come join me if you can.” I said stepping away from him.

“I’ll try.” He said.

I walked past him and took a moment as he bent over to pick up the bowl I had dropped to playfully smack his butt. He froze for a split second.

“You’ll regret that.” He said his voice was lower than usual. He stood and gave me a warning look.

I smirked, “Doubt it.” I said and winked before walking out of the room and to our bunk.

I was laying down for maybe ten minutes when he came in to join me. The kid was down for his nap as well.

“Oh is it time for me to regret what I did?” I asked sitting up slightly.

“Nope. The doctor said you needed to rest, No strenuous activity until after the baby is born. So, I guess that’ll have to wait. Sorry, doctor’s orders.” He teased as he settled in behind me.

I smirked, laying back down. “You know, there are other ways you could have made me learn my lesson.” I hinted.

“Oh, well if your offering you could-”

“But you’re right, we probably shouldn’t. Doctor’s orders.” I cut him off.

“You’re a tease, you know that?” He said gruffly.

“When I want to be. Now hush, it’s nap time.” I said relaxing into him.

He laughed lightly then wrapped an arm around my waist to hold me close and sighed in contentment.

“Get some rest.” He whispered, pressing a gentle kiss to my head, just behind my ear.

Din’s Pov 

I had just picked up a couple of new bounties to go find, I need a little extra money for me and the kid. We had just landed on a fairly remote planet on the outer rim. The perfect place for some who had a high bounty to be hiding out. I made sure the kid was asleep before leaving. It was dark here, probably the middle of the night. I didn't know much about this bounty only that it was a female.

I held the tracking fob in my hand as I walked it beeped more than it had when I landed. I was getting closer. A small town was coming up, she was probably somewhere in the town. 

The tracking fob led me to a multiple occupancy living building. I slowly made my way through the halls of the building. Everyone here seemed to be asleep. I came across one door and the fob began to beep, even more, she was in there. I got ready to bust the door but I heard a voice from inside.

"If you want to come in, just knock. I don't want to pay to repair the door." A female voice called. 

Then the door suddenly unlocked and swung open. Hesitantly I stepped in to see a girl sitting in a chair with a book in her hand on the other side of the room.

"How'd you open the door from way over there?" I asked.

"Magic." She replied not looking up from her book. 

"Is that a tracking fob?" She asked, folding the corner of the page she was on and closing the book. 

"Yes." I said. Why was she so calm? 

"Then I guess take me." She said with a sigh and stood up. It was only now that I saw her slightly rounded stomach. She was pregnant. This was turning out to be one of the oddest bounties I’d ever had, and me and my old partner had some pretty stranges ones in the past but nothing like this. 

"I'm not going to fight you and make this harder on me or my baby. We'll get enough when we get back." She said now holding her wrists out for me to cuff. 

I grabbed my cuffs and put them on her, still questioning this whole situation. There was something more that I didn't know about this bounty. 

"Are they too tight?" I asked. I mentally decided that if she was going to be this cooperative, I could be a little less harsh on her. She shook her head no. 

"Hold on I need to grab something." She said turning back around to grab her book and key. 

"I need to leave the key at the front desk." She said, her voice now void of all emotions. 

I stayed quiet for a second then sighed. 

"Oh what the hell," I mumbled. "I have a few other bounties to pick up before I drop you off, so you'll have to stay on my ship for a few days. You may want to pack a bag with some extra clothes.” I knew I couldn’t put her in carbonite like I do with other bounties, I didn’t know what it would do to her baby. 

She gave me a look that was somewhere between shock, confusion and uncertaincy. 

“Give me the key I'll go put on the front desk. Then we can leave." I said holding my hand out for the key. 

"Why?" She asked with the same look.

"Don't ask questions, just do it before I change my mind." I said. 

She dropped the key into my hand and I made sure the cuffs were set so that I could walk the distance to the front without her getting pulled along with me. When I came back she was having trouble zipping the bag with her cuffed hands. 

"Here." I said stepping up and zipping it for her then taking the bag and carrying it myself. I reset the cuffs so she would be forced to stay somewhat close. I also didn't want her to trip though since she was pregnant and had shorter legs than I did so I did try to slow my pace some. 

Once we were on the ship I offered her the unused small cot to sleep on, but she insisted that she wasn't tired. She asked if it was okay with me if she sat in the cockpit with me as I flew to my next bounty. And that's how we ended up here sitting silently as I flew the Razor Crest through space. 

"So was I your easiest capture ever?" She asked. 

"Well yeah. Most bounties will fight with everything they have not to be captured or have people protecting them from being captured." I said. 

"I am willing to bet most bounties aren't three months pregnant either." She said with a joking tone. 

"Yeah that's a first too." I said allowing a small laugh out. She seemed like a good person why did she even have a bounty? 

"Why do you have such a high bounty, or any bounty for that matter, on your head? You seem like a decent person." I spoke suddenly before I could stop myself. 

"Why do you have full beskar armor? It was taken away from us a while ago." She said trying to avoid the question, but I wasn't focussed on that, she had said "us". 

"What do you mean ‘it was taken away from us’? Are you a Mandalorian?" I asked. 

"Clearly not, you've seen my face. I have no armor." She said, a sudden nervousness in her voice. 

"Well then you used to be, otherwise you wouldn't have said ‘us’. ...Why'd you break the creed?" I asked. I couldn't imagine someone breaking the creed, not after everything that has happened to the Mandalorians. 

"I didn't." She snapped and the calm mood that had once surrounded vanished. 

"Clearly you did. Why?" I pressed. 

"I didn't break it! I was forced out of it!" She yelled. "And to answer your question I have such a high bounty because I killed an ex imperial officer, a very good one with a very rich boss. I left him lying there with a knife in his neck." Her voice returned to a normal volume. 

I switched the ship to autopilot then turned to face her. "What do you mean you were forced out of it?" 

"I was a bounty hunter.” She took a deep breath before continuing, “I had gotten injured while collecting a bounty. I was bleeding out when this guy found me he told me he was a doctor and offered me some help. I let him but on one condition, he swore not to remove my helmet. He agreed. He picked me up and took me somewhere. I had lost so much blood that I had passed out and had no clue where he had taken me. When I came to, I was strapped down to a cold metal table. He had stitched up my side. All my armor was gone, including my helmet, all I had covering me was a thin sheet. I can’t remember how long I had been there but I knew I had to get out.Someone finally came in and I guess they had some sort of compassion in them or something and I was able to convince them to loosen my restraints, then once they were gone I slipped out of them and put my clothes and armor back on, it was sitting in a pile in the corner of the room. The guy who took me was stupid enough to leave all my weapons in their holsters. I left the room and tried to find an exit. That's when I ran into the officer, he pulled a blaster on me but before he could shoot he was down. I killed him without a second thought. Then once I finally got out of the building, I ran. I found a ship, stole it, and flew off that planet. I took my armor off as soon as I was safe, it felt wrong to have it on. About a week later I found out about my bounty. Turns out the guy who took me was a crime lord. I tried to just lay low for a while. Then a month after that I found out that I was pregnant. That's when I moved to the outer rim systems. I had just gotten to that apartment a week ago. I've been moving constantly to hopefully not get caught. A guess that didn't work." She said with a dishearted chuckle. 

"I'm sorry, I didn't know. I shouldn't have pressed on." I said. I was genuinely sorry to hear about what had happened to her. The Mandalorian had been the ones to save me if some had forced me to break the creed I'm not sure how I'd handle it. 

"So why'd you become a Mandalorian?" She asked.

The questions brought all my memories of that day to the surface. I seriously considered turning back around and not answering her but she had just opened up to me, the least I could do was return it. I told her about the day my parents died and the Mandalorian took me in. I could tell by the way she listened that she was a compassionate person. 

"I can only imagine how hard that must have been. Especially being so young." She said, her eyes softening, her voice was filled with genuine sympathy. 

"What about you?" I asked. 

She sighed. "I think I've opened up to you enough for now." I knew she was partly poking fun but was also serious about it. 

I nodded, knowing better than to push further. She didn’t want to share that, and I can respect that. I couldn't help but think that there was something familiar about her voice. Like I had heard it before, but I knew that was wishful thinking. I was just hoping to have someone from my past here with me still.

I was brought out of my thoughts by her yawning. 

"You should go down and get some sleep. I unlocked the door to your cot." I said. She didn't protest this at all, just stood without a word and carefully climbed down the ladder. 

After she was gone I took out her tracking fob and held in one hand, just looking at it. I wasn't sure what to do. I knew I couldn't bring myself to hand her back over to the man who had done so much to here. I also knew I couldn't just drop her anywhere, she didn't have much and eventually wouldn't be able to protect herself from other bounty hunters that would be sure to come after her. My only option left was to let her stay with me and the kid. I shoved the fob back into my pocket before I let myself think anymore into it. 

The planet that my next bounty should be on was close by so I took the ship off autopilot and flew it down into a landing bay. It was still night time so I should be able to get at least a couple hours of sleep before the sunrises. I shut off all the flying functions on the ship before leaving the cockpit. 

When I got off the ladder I saw the kid starring up at me. 

"You should still be asleep." I found myself talking quieter than usual. 

He cooed and looked over to where the girl was sleeping. I didn't know her name. "Keep it down, she's probably asleep. Like you should be." I said trying to be as quiet as possible and bent down to pick him up. 

As I stood, the sliding door to where the girl was staying slid open. She stood there now wearing shorts and an oversized shirt. She rubbed her eye and squinted at me. 

"Who the hell are you talking to?" She asked. 

"No one." I said quickly. Her eyes went from my helmet to the child in my arms. 

"Then who's that?" She asked smirking. 

I didn't say anything just stepped to put the child back in his holder. I could feel her eyes watching my every move. 

"I'm sorry he woke you up." I said turning back towards her. 

"It's okay... He's not one of your bounties, is he?" She asked, there was a slight concern in her voice. 

"No. He was but, I couldn't leave him. I rescued him and now he's under my protection until I can find where he belongs." I said and she nodded, knowing that is how things worked with the Mandalorians when it came to Foundlings.

"You wouldn't happen to know what specie he is, would you?" I asked slightly hopeful that she might know. 

"No idea. But I can tell he's special." She said a slight mischievous look on her face. 

"What do you mean?" I asked confused. 

"I’m not sure, but there’s something about him." She said, she reached out to him and his tiny hand wrapped around her finger causing her to smile gently down at him. 

I looked down at the kid "The hand thing..." 

She looked at me confused. 

"Nevermind." I said shaking my head. 

She turned her attention back to the creature holding her finger. "The hand thing? That sounds like some type of magic or something." 

“I guess, in a way it is.” I confessed. 

“Well, it’s late I should get to sleep. Goodnight little.” She said softly to the kid after he let go of her finger. She turned to me and gave me a slight nod. 

And with that she turned swiftly and closed the door to the cot she was sleeping on. I'd be lying if I said I didn't like her attitude. There was something oddly familiar about her but I couldn't seem to place it. Part of me wanted to keep her around, but another part of me knew I needed the money for me and the child, and yet another part of me knew I couldn't let her go back to the man who had put the bounty on her but I could just drop her off somewhere. She had no money, and even if she did it wouldn't help much because she'd have more bounty hunters coming for her. Sure she used to be a Mandalorian, but she's pregnant and won't be able to fight off attacks soon. To say I was conflicted was an understatement.

Tag list is opened

ALSO!!!! There is an authors note at the bottom, please do read it and be on the look out for a post coming soon about future parts and all that!! Anyways, please enjoy and that you for the support!! 

Gif is not mine

“Hey, I hate to be the one who has to break up this sweet moment, but these tunnels will be lousy with Imps in a matter of minutes probably. We should at least discuss an escape plan.” Cara said, snapping me out of my slight trance.

She was right, we had to figure out a way out of here and back to the ship.

“If you follow the descending tunnel, it will lead you to the underground river. It flows downstream to the lava flats.” The armorer said as she still continued to work on something.

I had no idea what she was making. I thought she was trying to salvage the parts, not make anything at the moment.

“I think we should go.” Greef voiced his opinion on the matter as if we weren’t all thinking the same thing.

“He is right.” The armorer agreed, “A foundling is now in both of your care. Until it is of age or you happen to decide where he truly belongs, you are as it’s father,” she looked to DIn, “And you are as it’s mother,” She looked over at me, “This is the  way.”

“This is the way.” Din and I both respond in unison. For the first time in a long while, the words of our people didn’t feel foreign on my tongue and I actually meant them.

We both gave her a nod of understanding. Up until now, that is what we had been doing anyway, raising him as if he were our own. I honestly couldn’t stand the thought of giving him up, even to others of his species, he was our son. He belonged with Din, the Bean, and me. He belonged with his family. His real family. A family doesn’t end with the blood that runs through your veins. You can make your own family with the ones you love and care about, just like we had done for ourselves.

I stole a glance back at the small green creature. Though he was very observant and could begin to sense things through the Force, I don’t think he had any idea what was going on at the moment. I couldn’t help but smile at him as he cooed at me.

“I believe the two of you have earned your signet.” She said walking over to weld them onto our right shoulder pauldron.

“This particular signet is rare. It is one that represents the true embodiment of family. Despite the vastness of our galaxy, the light will always guide you to one another. When your children and any future children are of age, they will bear this same family signet, then they will earn their personal one later on in their life and it will be added.” She explained the meaning of our new family signet.

Family signets in general were rare. Most of the time a Mandalorian will only ever earn their personal signet, and then their children will earn one of their own. But with a family signet, everyone in the family will wear the signet on one shoulder and then their personal one on the left. Whether you are born into the family, adopted in, or marry into the family, you are given the family signet to wear. Even if someone who is not a Mandalorian marries into the family, they are given a single shoulder pauldron during the wedding ceremony that bears the family signet.

“Thank you.” I said as I gave her a nod just as she finished welding mine on.

A moment later we all heard muffled explosions from the Imps drawing near. She turned to the droid.

“IG, please guard the outer hallway. A scouting party draws near.” She requested.

The droid turned to the closest person to him, which just so happened to be Cara, and handed the kid who was still in the satchel bag over to her.

“Hang on. I don’t do the baby thing.” She said, holding the creature out at arms width.

I gave Don’s hand one last squeeze before letting go and walking over to Cara to rescue her from baby duty. I took the kid off her hands and held him.

“I have one more gift for your journey, Din Djarin.” The armorer said, “Have you trained in the Rising Phoenix?”

“When I was a boy. Yes.” He replied.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I remember those days vividly. We were in the same training group. None of us were experts at it at first, most of the time it took us children a week or so to even properly get up off the ground.

But not Din. He took to it like a pro, as if he’d been doing it for years. He launched off the ground and flew up fairly high, then came back down. His landing was a little wobbly, but it was still way better than anyone else had done. And it just so happened that he went right before I did.

We were always competitive growing up, hell we still are even now, to some degree. And I was certainly not about to be upstaged by him.

I took a step and pushed off the ground, gracefully flying up briefly before coming back down to land. I landed gracefully on both my feet and didn’t wobble.

Everyone was impressed. Well almost everyone. Din could not believe it. He even accused me of cheating but he didn’t know how I could have done it. I denied cheating in any form. But truth be told, I did cheat. I had used the force to make sure I did better than him, but that was something I would never admit to him. He could handle believing that I was better at something than he was.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Then this will make you complete.” She turned around with a jetpack in her hands.

“Thank you.” Din said. I could tell he was in slight shock.

Despite how good he was with it as a boy, he never actually got the chance to get one of his own. He had always wanted one, and now he had it.

“When you have healed, you will begin your drills. Until you know it, it will not obey your commands.” She instructed.

“I understand.” Din reassured.

The sounds of blasters firing grew louder and we all heard a thump. We were all reaching for our weapons ready to be greeted by some Imps but were relieved to see IG-11 walk into the walkway.

“You are protected.” He informed us.

“More will come. You must go.” The armorer urged us.

“Come with us.” I pleaded with her.

We all knew that if she stayed she would most likely end up dead.

“My place is here.” She countered my pleas. “Restock your ammunitions.”

Din stepped over to a table and began to grab different forms of ammunition, and store them away in his belt.

“IG, carry this for Din Djarin until he is well enough to wear it.” She said to the droid, handing him the jetpack.

“Now go,” she spoke to the group as a whole, “Down to the river and across the plains.”

The rest of the group did not hesitate on their actions as they began to leave. I waited a moment for Din.

“Be safe on your journey.” The armorer bid is goodbye.

“Thank you.” Din and I both said before walking out side by side.

We continued down the now slightly more familiar hallways. And after another half an hour of walking, we were at the river. There was an old boat, with a ferry droid. Neither of which looked super promising.

“This is the lava river.” Greef announced.

“Really, I thought we made it to Hoth.” I sassed.

I was drained. Both emotionally and physically. And I knew everyone else was too, so it wasn’t an excuse. But the contraction I just felt before we got here was not doing anything to ease the stress of current circumstances.

I didn’t actually think I was going into labor. Other women on Avis that had children always said that they sensed it through the force before anything actually started happening. I hadn’t felt anything pertaining to the bean yet so I didn’t think it was actually labor. But that didn’t do much to calm me down. And it didn’t change how uncomfortable they felt. They weren’t necessarily painful, but they certainly weren’t pleasant feeling either.

“The ferry droid is fried.” Din said.

“Okay, not to be rude, but can we stop pointing out the obvious and figure out a way to get out of here before the Imps find us?” I asked, my tone was more snappy than I had intended it to be and I knew he would question me about it later.

Din looked over at me with his helmet tilted to the side as he tried to figure out where my sudden attitude came from.

“Okay, how about we push the boat out from here, then we can get it to float downstream.” Greef suggested. “Come on.”

He began pushing on the side of it trying to get it off the wall.

“Looks old. Will it take the heat?” Din asked looking over the boat.

“You got a better idea?” Greef questioned.

“It’s not like we have many other choices.” I sighed.

“Guess not.” Din conceded.

He and Cara began trying to help Greef push the boat out from the wall. It wasn’t budging.

“Come on! Push!” Greef urged.

Din stood with a huff and kicked the side of the boat out of frustration.

“Come on. What are you doing?” Greef asked, confused as Din grabbed an old metal pipe off the ground.

“Let’s try this.” He said trying to wedge the pipe between the wall and boat.

It still wasn’t moving. I looked over at Cara and she rolled her eyes as she hoisted up her rifle.

“You guys mind getting out of the way?” She asked.

We all stepped back as she opened fire at the side of the boat. She broke away the bits of dried lava that was holding the boat in its place.

Once it broke free Greef was quick to get on it. I handed the kid to Cara quickly as Din got on before me. He turned to help me on.

I placed one hand on his shoulder as he grabbed my waist.

“Ready?” He said.

I barely even nodded as he lifted me up and over onto the boat. And much to my surprise, he did it with only the slightest of grunts as he set me down.

“Watch your feet. It’s molten lava.” IG-11 warned us.

“Yeah, no kidding.” Cara stole the words before I could say them myself.

Once we were slowly drifting downstream, I stepped over to the side of the boat and rested my hands on it. I leaned into my hands slightly as I closed my eyes and began to shift my weight from one foot to the other in a futile attempt to relieve my aching body.

I could feel eyes on me but I paid them no attention. It wasn’t until Din was placing a hand on my back did I open my eyes and turned to look at him.

“What’s wrong?” He asked, concerned.

I shook my head. Our mission right now was to get to the ship, once we got there we could evaluate if I really needed to go to a medical facility or just needed some rest. I was hoping more for the latter more than anything.

“Are you still getting contractions like you were yesterday?” He asked quietly so only I heard.

I nodded, slightly ashamed for not telling him.

“Hang in there just a little bit longer okay, we’ll be home on the Crest soon.” He said, holding me in his arms as he rested his helmet against mine.

Despite the heat radiating off of the lava, I didn’t want to leave his arms. Unfortunately, the supposedly fried droid had other ideas. It slowly began to come to life as all of us whipped out our weapons and trained them on the droid as he raised up taller than any of us on the boat.

With my lightsaber held firmly in my left hand, I instinctively stepped closer to Din. He wrapped his left arm around me as he aimed his blaster at the droid with his right.

The droid beeped and chirped things that we could not understand.

“I don’t suppose anyone here speaks droid?” Din said, tiring his head to the rest of the group.

“I believe he is asking where we would like to go.” IG-11 responded.

“Downriver.” Greef nodded his head in the direction we were going, “To the lava flats.”

The ferry droid chirped once again and began to steer us in the direction we were already heading. It continued to chirp and beep a random rhythmic tune as we continued downstream. We all put away our weapons.

“Yn, why don’t you sit down for a little bit?” Din suggested.

I nodded and allowed him to help ease me down to the floor of the boat to sit. He held one of my hands while his other rested on my hip to guide me. The moment I was on the ground I could feel another contraction. I squeezed Din’s hand, not because I was in pain, but because I was scared. He didn’t even need to ask me what was wrong, he knew.

“How long has it been since the last one?” He asked as he felt my grip loosen but not fully release his hand.

I sighed in relief as I relaxed a little bit more and I felt the weight taken off my feet. It wasn’t until now the true exhaustion really hit me as I was able to somewhat relax my body.

“I don’t even know, honestly.” I said shaking my head.

“Okay...um…” He trailed off as he got lost in thought.

“Din, quit trying to figure out what about this right now.” I said.

“Yn, this shouldn’t be happening yet, it’s too early.” He said gently, you didn’t have to be able to read his body language to know he was beyond worried, you could hear it in his voice.

“I know, but there is nothing we can do about it right now. Our goal right now is to get to the ship and off this planet. If we can’t make it to the ship, then you’re worrying about this for nothing, Din. Face it, Din, we have two options. Make it to the Crest, or you all die while me and the kid are taken. And honestly, I don’t know which one will be harder.” I said sadly.

He was silent for a moment as the reality of my words stuck him.

Finally, he sighed and nodded slowly, “Okay, but as soon as we’re off this planet, I’m finding you the closest medical facility. I don’t care if you’re not actually going into labor, you’ve been through a lot these past two days, we need to make sure the two of you are okay.” Din said.

I didn’t even have the energy to argue. I only nodded lazily. I was having a hard time focusing my eyes on what was in front of me, which at the moment was Din as he crouched down to talk to me. I reached up to remove my helmet, thinking it was from staring through the visor after not doing so for so long. But I could seem to get a proper grip on it. All my muscles felt like jelly.

“Here, let me help.” Din said, reaching forward to remove my helmet for me.

I sighed again once it was off. I was still having trouble focusing my eyes, but it was a little easier without the visor. My eyes kept wandering around to our surroundings.

“Hey look at me,” Din said and I forced my eyes to him, “stay with me.” He grabbed my hand and held it tightly, “I didn’t leave you, you don’t get to leave me. Neither of you do.”

I nodded weakly and squeezed his hand back as if to tell him that I wouldn’t. I could feel my brain begging me to close my eyes, to just rest for a few moments even. I tried to fight it. But it was no use, my body had already gotten the taste of relaxation and it wanted more. My eyes closed.

Despite being completely drained in almost every sense, my connection to the Force was at its highest. It was a survival tactic. When your body gets too weak to function your connection to the Force gets stronger and you are able to pick up, sense, hear, see and even sometimes feel everything happening around you. It was almost like an out of body experience.

It appeared as if I was standing on the back of the boat watching everyone in front of me. Greef pointed to the end of the tunnel and announced that we would soon be free. But I sensed that there was something more to the opening.

Din stood from where he was still crouching the real, and now unconscious me.

“No. No, we’re not. Stormtroopers. They’re flanking the mouth of the tunnel.” He confirmed my suspicions, “It looks like an entire platoon. They must know we’re coming.”

“Stop the boat.” Cara ordered the ferry droid.

The droid continued to steer us closer to our death.

“Hey, droid! I said stop the boat.”

Still, the droid did nothing to stop us.

Cara whirled around and marched right up to the droid, “Hey! I’m talking to you. I said stop!” She stuck her blaster under the head of the droid and blasted it off.

The sparks rained down before me, but none of them hurt me. I continued to watch as the boat drifted closed and closer to the Stormtroopers.

“We’re still moving!” Greef pointed out as if it wasn’t obvious.

Cara turned back to the others, “Looks like we fight.” She concluded.

“There’s too many. We wouldn’t be able to take them down, especially without Yn and the kid’s abilities.” Din argued.

“Then what do you suggest? ‘Cause I can’t surrender.” Cars shot back.

“They will not be satisfied with anything less than the child and Yn. This is unacceptable. I will eliminate the enemy, and you will escape.” IG-11 said.

“You don’t have that kind of firepower, pal.” Din said over his shoulder, “You wouldn’t even get to daylight.” He turned to face the droid fully now.

“That is not my objective.” IG-11 said back.

I realized at that moment what his plan was. He was going to sacrifice himself to give us all the chance to escape with the child.

“We’re getting close. Saddle up.” Cara said, walking back to the front of the boat and handing the child to the droid.

“I still have the security protocols from my manufacturer. If my designs are compromised, I must self-destruct.” IG informed the others.

“What are you talking about?” Din asked, stepping closer.

“I am not permitted to be captured, I must be destroyed.” The droid explained.

“Are we going to keep talking, or get out of here?” Greef hollered at the two.

If I was in a normal conscious state right now I would have told him to shut up and the droid explain what he meant.

“I can no longer carry this for you.” IG said, setting the jetpack down, “Nor can I watch over the child.” He said handing the small green creature over to Din.

“Wait. You can’t self-destruct. Your base command is to watch over the child. That supersedes your manufacturer’s protocol, right?” Din looked up at the droid as he tried to argue.

When he got no answer he pressed on, “Right?”

“This is correct.” The droid finally answered after a moment or two.

“Good, now grab a blaster and help us shoot our way out.” Din said.

“Victory through combat is impossible. The child will be lost.” IG-11 continued, “Sadly there is no scenario where the child is saved, in which I survive.”

“Listen, you’re not going anywhere. We need you, let’s just come up with a-” Din continues his futile attempts at arguing.

“Din.” I tried calling out to him as I had done once before.

His attention snapped from IG-11 to me on the ground.

“I’m not really here. But you have to listen to him. We all know you can’t shoot your way out of here, even if you had my help. Din, you promised me no more death today, don’t break that promise. I don’t like it either, but it’s the only way.” I spoke to him.

I watched as his shoulders dropped a little. He knew I was right. He turned back to the droid.

“Please tell me the child will be safe in your care. If you do so, then I can default to my secondary command.” IG-11 requested.

“But you’ll be destroyed.” Din’s voice was laced with the thinnest strand of sadness that he tried to mask.

“And you will live, and I will have served my purpose.”

“No. We need you.” Din still tried one last attempt at arguing.

“There is nothing to be sad about, I have never been alive.” The droid said back.

“I’m…” Din hesitated for a moment, “not sad.”

“Yes, you are. I’m a nurse droid, I’ve analyzed your voice.” IG said.

I could help but smirk, I knew he had formed a small soft spot for the hunk of metal.

I watched with my own heart filling with slight sadness as IG-11 reached to gently stroke the child’s large ear. Then he stepped over to the edge of the boat before climbing over the edge and down into the slowly flowing lava. He walked ahead of the boat and made it to the light a few meters ahead of us. There was a small gap of time from when he made it out to the large explosion of him self-destructing. We made it out of the tunnel by going through the cloud of smoke left in his wake.

Suddenly we all heard the familiar, ominous sound of a TIE Fighter approaching. I looked up and sure enough one was flying right towards us. We all knew it was Moff Gideon coming to finish us off.

I felt useless as he closed in on us and began firing. Almost as useless as our blasters against his small aircraft. Luckily with his first pass, he didn’t hit any of us.

“He missed!” Greef exclaimed in surprise.

“He won’t next time.” Din warned.

“Our blasters are useless against him.” Cara said, knowing they needed a different plan, and soon.

“Let’s make the baby do the magic hand thing.” Greef said confidently.

If only it were that easy.

He turned to the child and held up his hand, wiggling his fingers, “Come on, baby! Do the magic hand thing.”

The child cooed softly as he raised his hand and waved at Greef.

“I’m out of ideas.” Greef said in defeat.

“I’m not.” Din began to put on the jetpack.

He was going to try and get on Moff Gideon’s level. I couldn’t tell if this was a great or horrible idea. Either way, I knew I had to do something to help.

I closed my eyes and then forced them open as I woke up back in my real body and not hovering behind them like I was.

“Din.” His name came out as more of a cough rather than actual words.

Regardless he turned to me and was kneeling in front of me in an instant.

I fumbled with the lightsaber on my hip until I got it free and held it out for him to take.

“Take it. Be careful, don’t cut any of your limbs off. And if you drop, I’ll make you walk out there all night until you find it.” I said, my voice still sounded rough from earlier, that paired with the hot air we had been breathing in made it sound even raspier.

“I don’t even know how to use it.” He said as he gently took it.

“You’ll know when you need to.” I said.

I could hear the TIE Fighter getting closer.

“Go.” I said to Din.

He reluctantly stood up, with my lightsaber held in his hand.

Just before Moff Gideon was above us, Din leaped into the air, then he shot a wire to connect onto the main part of the craft and was pulled away out of my view by the TIE Fighter.

I closed my eyes and did my best to focus on him, but it was difficult because of the rapid changes in his energy. I finally got a good hold on him as he held on tightly to the part of the ship that connected where the pilot sat to the panels on the side.

“Din, now. Use it now.” I said to him.

He gripped the weapon in one hand tightly as he ignited it, the blade plunging deep into the mechanics housed in that part of the ship. He turned it off and let go of the ship all in one quick motion.  

I lost my connection to him as my eyes snapped open.

“Cara, help me up.” I said weakly reaching my arm up to her.

She came over and helped me carefully stand from the floor and then she kept an arm around me to help stable me.

Once I was standing I watched as the TIE Fighter spiraled out of control and then crashed behind a small mountain in the distance. I didn’t see an explosion but didn’t think much of it, believing that perhaps he landed in a deep ravine that prevented us from seeing it.

Cara then helped me up and over the edge of the boat and on to solid ground. I watched as Din came near us from above and landed with a slight stumble onto the ground. He was rushing over to us in an instant. He took me into his arms as I stepped, or more like stumbled away from Cara. He held me close as if he didn’t want to let go, and truth be told I didn’t want him to.

“It looks like your Guild rates just went up.” Greef commented as I finally pulled away from Din, but not completely out of his arms.

“Are there any Stormtroopers?” Din asked.

“I think we cleaned up the town.” Cara said.

“Good.” Din nodded.

“I’m thinking of staying around just to be sure.” She added.

“Wait you’re staying here?” I asked, turning my head to look at her.

“Well, why not?” Greef interjected. “Nevarro is a very fine planet. And now that the scum and villainy have been washed away, it’s very respectable again.”

“As a bounty hunter hive?” Din questioned.

“Some of my favorite people are bounty hunters.” Greef said with a nod towards Din and I, “And perhaps, this specimen of soldier might consider joining our ranks.” He said turning to Cara and clasping her shoulder.

“Yeah, I’ve got some clerical concerns regarding my chain code.” Cara said.

“And if you agree to become my enforcer, clerical concerns would be the least of your worries.” They continued their conversation.

“But you two, you will both be welcome back into the Guild with open arms. So go off, enjoy yourselves, take some time for both of you. And when you’re ready to return you will have the pick of all quarries.” Greef said to Din and me.

Din looked slightly down at me standing next to him, with his arm around me, the kid held in my arms. The child reached over to his father, wanting to be held by him now. Din easily took him into his free arm as he spoke.

“I’m afraid I have more pressing matters at hand.” Din said.

Greef and Cara both nodded in understanding that we had a family that needed our attention for a while. Cara stepped forward and gently brushed her hand against his ear.

“Take care of him,” she said looking up to Din, then she looked over at me, “And those two.” She nodded her head to the side.

“I will.” Din assured her.

Then she stepped in front of me and gently wrapped her arms around me, “Take care, alright? And take it easy.” She pulled away but kept her hands on my upper arms, “I’m no doctor, but I don’t think escaping a town full of Imps trying to capture you is the best thing to do when you’re in your third trimester.” She joked.

I couldn’t help but laugh a little as I agreed, “Yeah, me neither.”

“And I might not be a huge fan of the whole baby thing, but I’d love to come to visit if I can after this little Bean gets here.”

I nodded, “Definitely.”

“We should get going.” Din said.

I nodded in agreement before saying goodbye to Greef.

“How are we even going to get back to the ship?” I asked.

“I have an idea.” Din said as we walked a few steps away from Cara and Greef.

“I don’t like the sound of that.” I said.

“Here hold him, and wrap your other arm around my neck.” He instructed.

I really didn’t like where this was going but I did as he said. Next thing I knew he was holding me in his arms, bridal style, and then he pushed up off the ground. I stiffened up in his arms as my grip on him and the child tightened significantly.

“Din, I swear if you…” I couldn’t finish my sentence.

“I didn’t drope your lightsaber, did I?” He teased.

“This is way different than a lightsaber.” I argued with eyes screwed shut.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got you. I’ll always have you.”

gif is not mine 

I put the lightsaber away, and back into its hiding spot. I was tired, the Bean was still, so I decided to try my luck in going to sleep. It was hopeless. Not even five minutes after I got into a semi-comfortable position, he was active once again. It was like he knew Din wasn’t here to calm him down and he was just taunting me. I pushed myself up into a sitting position and grabbed my holopad from where it sat on the mattress beside me. In big font, the time read, “01:37”

I groaned internally. Din still wouldn’t be back for a good while. There was no use in staying in bed if I wasn’t going to be able to fall asleep. I could go sit in the kitchen, but it’s not super comfortable. The best seat on the Crest was honestly the pilot’s seat. But that was up in the cockpit. I debated it in my mind and came to the conclusion that if I took it slow, I’d be fine since the ship was stationary.

I took the thin blanket off our bed and walked over to the ladder. I tossed the blanket up so I would t have to carry it as I climbed. Once I was up, I made my way over to the pilot’s chair. I got myself situated and wrapped the blanket around me. It smelt like Din, like home.

I reached for his holopad that was on the dash, I would have used mine but I left it down on the bed. His was sitting right next to the cockpit’s transmitter. I noticed that the light on it was flashing indicating there was a transmission that hadn’t been deleted. I turned it on and saw the hologram appear. It was Greef Karga.

How old was this message? Din was always so good about getting rid of old messages.

I decided to play it before deleting it.

“My friend, if you are receiving this transmission, that means that you’re alive. You might be surprised to hear this, but I am alive too. I guess we can call it even. A lot has happened since we last saw each other.”

What had happened the last time they saw each other? Din had told me about how he stole the kid back but he hadn’t gone into great detail about who all was there. Was Greef there? It wouldn’t surprise me.

“The man who hired you is still here.” He said.

My eyes went wide. How old was this message? I had to find out before I watched the rest of it. I pressed a few buttons and then a small time stamp hologram came up. The transmission was less than a week old.

I went back to the transmission and continued playing it.

“-and his ranks of ex-imperial guards have grown. They have imposed despotic rule over my city, which has impeded the livelihood of the Guild. We conceded him an enemy, but we cannot get close enough to take him out. If you would consider one last commission, I will very much make it worth your while. You have been successful so far staving off their hunters, but they will not stop until they have what they want. So here’s my proposition, Return to Navarro. Being the child and the girl as bait. I will arrange an exchange and provide loyal guild members as protection. Once we get near the client, you kill him, and we both get what we want. If you succeed, you can keep the kid and the girl, and both of your names will be cleared with the Guild, for someone of honor should not have to live in exile. I await your arrival with optimism.”

I watched as he pressed a button ending the transmission. I had to know if Din knew about this yet. I dug the comlink out of my pocket. I couldn’t risk the mission they were on by saying something so I just pressed the button and allowed a few seconds of static to go through on his side and then waited for a response. Almost instantly he was talking to me.

“Yn, it’s late, are you alright?” He asked.

“I’m fine, just can’t sleep.” I confessed.

“I’m sorry, we’re getting ready to head back. I’ll be home before lunch tomorrow.” He said and it filled me with relief.

“That’s good. We miss you.” I said.

“I miss you guys too. So are you just laying in bed right now?”

“No, I’m actually sitting up in the cockpit.”

“Oh, okay. Did you get up there fine?”

“Yeah… have you looked at the transmitter recently?” I asked, getting to the whole reason why I called him.

“Not in the last few days. Why? Is there a transmission?”

“Yeah, from Greef.”

“Oh, what did it say?” He asked.

I sighed.

“A lot. Long story short is that the man who hired you to get the kid is still there and he’s causing issues with the city, Greef wants you to come back and take him out. I’ll leave it alone so you can watch the whole thing when you get back.” I explained in short.

“Okay. I hate to do this but I have to go, we’re on the move again.” He said.

“It’s okay, be careful.” I said before ending the call.

I grabbed his holopad once again. He would deny this to his grave, but Din was a sucker for old holovids. He had a couple of his favorites saved on the device. We actually used to watch them together when jobs were slow or we were heading back to Navarro after collecting a handful of bounties and we needed some time to unwind. I swear we had watched them so many times, we had memorized the entire movie and didn’t even need to watch it.

I found the one I was looking for and tapped it. It took a moment to load and for a moment I got disappointed thinking that it wouldn’t work but soon the image appeared to start the holovid and I set the device up on top of the dash so I didn’t have to hold it.

It had been so long since I had watched this one. I mentally made a note to watch it again with Din after he got back.

I wasn’t sure when it happened but I finally fell asleep. It was far from a comfortable sleep, more like the ones when your body is just too exhausted to stay awake any longer and just shuts down. I was woken up to someone calling my name from bellow. At first, I thought it was just a dream because Din shouldn’t be back this early. It was only the morning. Once I gained my senses from being asleep I checked the time, 11:13. I overslept. Was the kid okay? Did someone take him? I was panicked. I heard someone coming up the ladder. I was struggling to get the blanket off me and get to my feet.

“Yn?” It was Din.

“Yeah, in here.” I called to him as he stepped into view.

“Good morning.” He teased.

“I know I way overslept. Is the kid okay?” I asked.

“Yeah, he’s playing down below. I don’t even know how he got out of his pod.” Din explained walking closer to me.

“Oh, weird.” I played dumb. I knew exactly how he did it. He used the force. My mother used to tell me that I would do it when I was a toddler.

Din was now directly in front of me and had a hand resting gently on my cheek. “Are you feeling better?”

“Yeah, my back hurts from sitting in the chair all ni-” I didn’t get to finish my sentence because he was cutting me off.

“Did you leave the main engine running this whole time?” He exclaimed, dropping his hand from my face and quickly stepping around me to get closer to the panel on the dash.

“I don’t think so, I thought you switched it to the generators before you left.” I said confused.

“No, I told you that you would have to do it. I said that I had to go and didn’t have time to.” He said frustrated.

“Din, I’m sorry. It was a misunderstanding. These things happen, it’s okay.” I tried to calm him down.

He pressed a few buttons on the dash and groaned. “Great.” He mumbled under his breath, just loud enough for the modulator to pick up.

“What?” I aked stepping closer to see what he was doing.

“You wasted half of the fuel we had left. Well only be able to make it to the next system over.” He sighed in frustration.

“I’m sorry Din, I didn’t do it on purpose. Let me help you find a planet to refuel on.” I offered my help.

“Fine.” He said, and picked up his holo pad, and tried to turn it on.

I bit my lip waiting for him to lash out again.

“It’s dead.” He said tossing it into the chair.

“I’m sorry Din, I forgot to turn it off. Let me go get mine.” I was trying to fix the situation.

“You know what, don’t worry about it, I’ll do it. Why don’t you just go down and watch the Kid, I’ll handle everything up here.” He was angry and I knew he was. But that didn’t give him the right to be rude to me.

“Din, I know you’re mad, but please jus-”

“Mad? I’m pissed, Yn. Half of the credits I just busted my ass for are now having to go to get fuel for the ship. Do you have any idea how much fuel costs these days?” He sassed.

“Yeah, I do actually. And if just leaving the main engine on overnight used that much fuel, then we clearly didn’t have a whole lot left and would have had to refuel soon anyways.” I tried to reason with him.

“Just go.” He said shaking his head and turning his back to me.

It hurt. I won’t lie and say that it didn’t because it did. I knew that not all of his anger was directed at me, I was just the tipping point this time.

Din didn’t get mad often, he would usually just bottle it up inside and then just one small incident like right now would set him off and all his pent up anger will come out at once. When this happens, there’s no telling how long he’ll be mad for, so it is best to just let him calm down and vent for a while.

Once I left the cockpit Din made sure to seal off the door that lead into it. I carefully climbed down to the main part of the ship. There I found the kid awake and playing on mine and Din’s bed. I made sure he was okay before making my way to the kitchen, it was close enough to lunchtime so I figured I might as well start on making some food for everyone.

The ship was silent, not even the kid was making much noise. I didn’t like it. Part of what makes the Crest our home was the constant noises. From the kid playing and giggling to the different mechanical noises from the dash up in the cockpit. The Crest was never quiet. At least not until right now.

I hated it. It wasn’t right. It made the ship feel cold and uninviting. It suddenly felt like the room was spinning, and everything was falling apart. It felt like my Force sense was being overloaded. This hasn’t happened in so long, I forgot how bad it felt.

I sat down at the table and tried to focus on anything that would help decrease the overload. At first, I tried to focus on the kid in the other room, but his connection to the Force made it worse, so I tried to block him away just for the time being. Next, I tried Din. I had familiarized myself with the way he feels through the Force, a long time ago. I used him a lot when we were younger to ground myself.

Slowly I felt everything calm down around me. Just as everything was becoming normal once again, I felt something off with him. Secrecy.

He usually had a slight aura of secrecy around him, but this was different from anything I had felt from him before. I tried not to dwell on it too much. The sudden overload was over and I wasn’t feeling dizzy so I slowly stood up and began to make lunch like I had originally intended to do.

Once it was ready I fed the kid his lunch. Since he slept later today than he usually did, I knew he wouldn’t go down for a nap so I let him go back to playing with a promise that I would read to him in a little bit. I stood at the bottom of the ladder and called to Din.

“Din, I made some lunch. It’s going to get cold soon. If you don’t want to eat right now, I can save it.”

I heard the door slide open, “I’ll eat after we refuel. We’re about to land. Hold onto something.”

I sighed. The kid was fine where he was on our bed, so I just grabbed onto the side of the ladder and braced for landing. After I felt the ship touchdown and then I went back to the kitchen. I was going to save Din’s food so he could heat it back up after we refueled.

While in the kitchen I heard Din come down. When I walked out I found him standing in front of the weapons safe.

“What are you doing?” I asked confused, I thought we were just refueling.

“This isn’t the safest planet to be on but it was the only station we could get to without risking getting stranded. The Kid stays in his pod, you stay right next to me. And one last thing, wait here.” He said and went back up into the upper part of the ship.

I waited patiently for him to come back. When he did he was hauling a crate with him.

He dropped it between the two of us. Then he went to grab a crowbar out of his tool cabinet. As he pried it open I realized that this wasn’t the first time it had been opened. My eyes widened when I saw what was inside. Armor. Mandalorian Armor.

“What’s this?” I asked.

“I had it made shortly after you came back. I’ve kept it just in case.” Din said.

Din’s PoV

I thought back to that day that felt like it was years ago when it was really only about five months ago.

Flashback:

I had been thinking about this a lot, and I was finally doing it. I knew there may be times when Yn may need some extra protection, even if I was with her. So I decided to contact the Armorer back on Navarro. Yn had gone to bed early so I took the opportunity to sneak up into the cockpit and call her.

I waited for a moment. After hearing a slight crackle in the static I knew that it had been answered and her image appeared in the hologram.

"I need some help." I said.

"I will need you to be more specific." The armorer's accented voice came through the other end.

I sighed, "I need some armor to be made."

"I  just made you armor made of Beskar only a few months ago. Why do you need new armor?" She asked, confused.

"It's not for me, it's for someone else." I admitted.

"Who? A fellow Mandalorian?" She asked.

I hesitated, "They were." Was all I could bring myself to say.

"If they have removed their helmet in front of anyone, then they are no longer a Mandalorian and can no longer wear our armor. It would be an insult to our people and our history."

"Please," I pleaded, "Please just hear me out."

"Very well."

"She didn't remove her helmet. She never intended for it to happen. She was on a hunt for a bounty, alone, when everything went wrong. She had gotten shot and was bleeding out. A man found her, told her he was a doctor, and would help her. At first, she declined, but he promised not to remove her helmet. He claimed to have known a few Mandalorians in the past and knew of the importance of the helmets. She told me that she didn't know why, but she agreed to let him help her.

“He took her in and she eventually passed out from blood loss. He was able to save her and stitched up her wound for her. When she finally woke up, everything was gone. All her weapons, armor, underclothes, and helmet were gone. He had taken advantage of her. She managed to escape. But she had a bounty out on her head because as she escaped she killed a few ex imperial generals. That's how I found her again. I couldn't make her go back to that man, she's been staying with me ever since. She needs something to protect her when I can't. Please."

"You knew her before her incident? Was she ever here on Navarro?" She asked.

"Yes." Was my only answer.

"What is her name?"

I sighed once again, I knew that not many knew what had happened to her and I wasn’t sure if she even wanted anyone to know.

"It's Yn." I said.

"I see. Under normal circumstances, I would not do this, but she is special. I will make the armor. Is there anything I should know before I begin forging the metal?" The way she asked the question made it seem like she knew something was up.

I was silent for a moment. "Yes."

"And that is?"

"She's pregnant." I said and waited for a reaction.

"I will make sure her armor will accommodate that." The armorer finally said.

"Thank you." I said and felt my shoulder relax some.

"Is that all?" She asked.

“Yes.” I said.

“Very well, I will get to work on the sets of armor right away. It is not safe for you to return to Navarro, so someone will have to deliver it to you. I will contact you when the exchange is ready.” She said.

“Wait sets of armor? Why are you making more than one?” I asked.

“One will accommodate her pregnancy, the other she will be able to wear afterwards.”

I only nodded.

“I must go now.” She said and the connection went dead.

End of Flashback

I was glad that I had it made. It would give me peace of mind. But I still didn’t know what she had meant when she said that Yn was special. All I knew is that I was grateful. Because now it would come to good use.

Yn PoV

“Wow, I don’t know what to say. Thank you, Din.” I was shocked. It was sweet that Din had thought of a way to help keep me safe.

“You’re welcome. Find something to wear under it and I’ll move the crate into the kitchen so you can change.” He said and I nodded.

It wasn’t uncommon for us to use the kitchen to change into and out of armor, the kitchen table provided the perfect surface to lay everything out on.

I grabbed some leggings and a long sleeve shirt then went into the kitchen.

“I’ll get the kid ready while you change.” Dins said and walked out.

His tone was short and to the point and I was having a hard time telling if he was still mad at me or mad at himself for snapping at me.

I dug through the crate and began to lay out all the armor. I noticed there was no helmet, but didn’t think much of it, Din probably had it.

I started with the easiest parts to get on which were the chest pieces, the shoulder pauldrons, the abdomen part, and the vambraces. The breastplate was detached from the part that covered my stomach So I put that on first. I had only seen one, maybe two pregnant Mandalorians before, and I had always wondered how their armor worked. The abdomen piece was actually divided into six pieces, which at first seemed like a lot to me, but once I began to put it on it made much more sense. Three were for the middle and sides for the upper part of my stomach, and the other three were for the lower part. The armor obviously wasn’t for you to run into battle with, which you shouldn’t be doing anyway, but it would protect you to some degree.

Once the abdomen pieces were on along with the breastplate, I worked on the shoulder pauldrons, which were exactly like my olds one so it didn’t take me long. Then I slipped the vambraces on to my forearms and made sure they were secure. I took one look at the knee pads, thigh, and shin guards and knew that there was no way I would be able to get them on securely without help. I sat down and was able to slip on the knee pads and shin guards, but I couldn’t get them to sit right with the angle I was at.

“Din, could you come help me, please?” I hollered for him.

He was walking into the kitchen in an instant. “Yeah, what do you need?” He asked, his tone had softened significantly.

“Tightening the shin guards and kneepads, and help to get the thigh guards on, I can’t get it with my stomach in the way.” I said with a slight laugh, causing him to exhale slightly in an attempt to laugh too.

He helped me with the rest of the armor, and even tied my shoes for me, which I was grateful for. Then he was getting up and heading to the ramp to leave.

“Wait, Din, aren’t we forgetting something?” I asked and he turned to me, confused.

“No, I don’t think so…” He said, tilting his head in thought.

“Where’s the helmet?” I asked.

For a moment, he didn’t say anything. I gave him an expectant look as if to say, I’m waiting for an answer.

“It’s up in the cockpit.” He finally said.

“Oh, can you go get real quick? Me and the kid will wait for you.” I said.

He sighed, “I left it up there on purpose.”

I was shocked, to say the least. I gave him an incredulous look. He tilted his head down as if he was guilty.

“Really? That defeats the whole purpose of wearing armor, why do I even need the rest of it then?” I asked.

“Because this planet isn’t safe, Yn, and we need to refuel so we can’t just stay on the ship.” Din said exasperated.

“Well if anyone wanted to hurt me here, now they’ll just go straight for my head. Good job, Din.” I retorted.

“Yn, you and I both know you can’t wear the helmet, you’re not a Manda-”

“Don’t you dare finish that fucking sentence.” I was quick to cut him off.

I couldn’t really be that mad at him, he didn’t know. If I had manned up and told that I was a Grey Jedi, and didn’t take the same Creed as him, he would know that there were different rules for Mandalorians that were Jedis. It’s up to the Elders to decide if we have broken our Creed, but I haven’t gotten the chance to come before them because I still haven’t told Din.

“Yn…” Din sighed, “This is the way.” His helmet tilted towards me as if he was looking at me expectantly.

“Din, you can’t solve all your issues with just saying this is the way. And According to you, I can’t say those words anymore.” I wanted so badly to bite my tongue and not say anything but the words were falling from my mouth before I could stop them.

“Come on, Yn, don’t be like that. You know I didn’t mean it like that” He tried to backtrack.

“No Din, I get it, let’s just get off refuel. Then when we get back on, we can regroup and decide what our next course of action is.” I said and began making my way over to the ramp to leave.

GIF is not mine and it has nothing really to do with the story I just like it. His smile is EVERYTHING to me.

My eyes snapped open and I bolted so hard I smacked my head on the wall. Then I became painfully aware of the lack of warmth beside me. I was out of bed in an instant. Yn wasn’t there. I began to panic as I looked frantically around the room.

Then just as I registered the glow coming from under the door to the refresher it went out and the door opened, I could just barely make out the silhouette of her body as we both stood in the pitch blackness of the room.

I couldn't help the sob that escaped my lips from just seeing her standing there alive as I threw my arms around her and held her as close as I could.

"Din, what happened? I heard something hit the wall, are you okay?" She asked, still half asleep but her voice was full of worry.

"I lost you." I mumbled.

"Nightmare?" She asked understandingly and I nodded, still holding her tightly.

We had both had our fair share of nightmares that broke us during our times of bounty hunting together. But this one took the spot for the worse one I had ever had.

Her hand was rubbing up and down my back as I continued to cry in her arms.

"Let's go lay back down, okay? We don't have to go back to sleep, just lay down together, okay?" She asked.

I knew that her back hurt the most right after she wakes up or after a long day, and since she had just gotten up to go to the bathroom, her back would start to hurt soon. So, I didn't answer nor did I protest her guiding us back to our bed.

When we got to the bed Yn got in first. She had scooted further up on the bed, slouching against the back wall with a pillow supporting her lower back. Then I got in and laid down with my head resting gently on her chest.

"Do you want to talk about it?" She asked.

I shook my head no slightly. I didn’t want her to get scared by the dream nor did I want to have to think about it any more than I already was.

“A bounty hunter found you while I wasn’t here.” Was all I was able to tell her.

I felt her chest rise slightly and then lower once again as she sighed gently in sympathy. “It’s okay Din, it was just a dream. Nothing is going to happen. I promise.” She said and then we continued to lay there in comfortable silence.

One of her hands was running through my hair and lightly scratching at my scalping calming me. I had one of my hands on her stomach, I could feel the Bean moving around a lot and it helped me ground myself to this moment and push out the nightmare some. I was grateful for this moment, usually, she hated when they moved around this much when she was tired but she didn't say a word about it right now.

After spending about ten minutes in silence I lifted my head to look at her despite the darkness. I went to apologize for keeping her up but she spoke before I got the chance to.

"Don't." She said gently as her hand moved from my hair to cup my cheek.

"Don't what?" I whispered, trying to play dumb.

"Apologize, there's no need to." She said wiping away some of the small tears that had slipped out. I turned my head and pressed a kiss to her palm before returning my head to where it was resting before. My hand found its way back to her stomach and began to make circles with my thumb, just like it always does when we lay together.

"Yn?" I called out to her in a whisper after a few minutes.

"Yeah?" She called back, I could hear the drowsiness in her voice.

"That dream, it made me realize something." I said.

"What?" It came out as more of a hum rather than an actual word.

"I love you. And I'm scared to lose you. I can't survive without you.." I trailed off some as tears pricked at my eyes once again.

"Din, I love you too. I never want to lose you either. If it wasn't for you I probably wouldn't be here." Her words were getting more slurred as sleep begged to take over her consciousness. But that didn’t make her words any less truthful. I knew she meant them.

There was silence for a split moment.

"Marry me." I blurted out, still in a whisper.

“Okay.” She said, her voice suddenly sounded much more awake and alert.

"This isn't just because of the dream, I really want to be with you. I have wanted to be with you for a long time, since we were both foundlings even before we took the Creed.  Please don't turn me down just because you think it was the dream... wait did you say okay?" I sat up and turned to her once again as I sat on my knees as I began rambling.

"Yes, of course, I did. I want to marry you too, Din. I love you, I love the kid and I know you love this baby.” She placed her hand on top of mine that was on her belly, “And this way it can really be yours. And all four of us can really be a family.” She said.

I left my hand with hers on her stomach as the other one found its way to hold her cheek as I leaned forward. My lips found hers and she melted into the kiss.

I wish the kiss could have lasted forever, but it was broken by Yn pulling back as she let out a yawn. I laughed a little and rested my forehead against hers.

“Why don’t we lay back down for real?” I suggested.

“Mhm.” She hummed.

I helped her scoot back down and adjust her pillow under her head and then laid down behind her. I couldn’t tell if it was just my imagination or if she was really laying closer to me. The Bean was still squirming and kicking occasionally, and I knew it would keep Yn up longer so I did the only thing I could think to do to calm them down. My thumb was drawing the typical circles where my hand was, which also always seemed to make Yn more drowsy too. Then I began to sing, I’m not sure where it came from but it just seemed right in this moment. I am by no means a singer, but there were a couple of songs I can vaguely remember my mother singing to me when I was little. I had done this a few times before when I couldn’t sleep and I didn’t want the Bean’s sudden alertness to wake up Yn who needed the rest. I had even sung to the Kid quite a few times as well when he was having a rough night. Any time I had done it before, I had always made sure Yn was asleep, but not this time.

I felt Yn relax even more into me as I began singing softly. There were a few parts that I couldn’t quite remember the words to so I just hummed through those parts. By the time the song was over the Bean had stilled itself almost completely, more than enough for Yn to fall peacefully asleep. I knew I wasn’t going to go back to sleep, just the thought of having a similar nightmare was more than enough to keep me awake. I only had a couple of hours until the sun came up, then all three of us would go into town together to get the supplies we needed. I was not about to leave her here alone. There would be no reason for anyone here to recognize any of us so we should be okay if we all went together.  

By the time morning rolled around, I was still awake so I took the opportunity to slip out of bed and make some quick breakfast for us. As I snuck my arm out from under hers and then continued to carefully get out of the bed she shifted slightly and I worried for a moment that she was going to wake up. Luckily she only shifted some to get comfortable once more before falling back completely asleep.

I made sure the kid was okay before making my way into the kitchen. I decided to just keep it easy and just make some eggs up real quick. I knew the kid would eat seeing as Yn had made them for him a few times before and as far as I knew they didn’t mess with Yn’s stomach or make her nauseous. And we had some on hand. So all around it was a safe bet.

I began cooking the eggs in two separate pans since they wouldn’t fit in one. Personally I had never been a huge fan of just plain eggs, but I ate them quite often because they were quick and easy to make plus they were filling so they were good to eat when on the go constantly. Usually, I would dump some random spices to make them a little better. So I opened the cabinet that Yn recently had deemed the spice cabinet.

My eyes widened at what I found first. Yn must have gotten it on a supply run and didn’t tell me. Before I could grab the small bottle of spice I heard Yn call out to me.

“Your helmet on?” She asked.

“Hold on.” I said before I grabbed it from where it sat on the table. I put it on then called for her to let her know she was safe to come in, “Alright you’re good.”

My back was to her so I couldn't see where she was heading. I honestly expected her to just go and sit at the table until the food was ready. So I was surprised to feel her arms around my torso and feel her face lean into me between my shoulder blades and her stomach press against my body as she hugged me from behind.

“Good morning.” She mumbled before pressing a kiss between my shoulder blades then resting her head back to where it had been before.

“Good morning to you too. You’re very affectionate today.” I commented before carefully turning around in her arms to hold her in my arms.

“What I can’t love on my Fiancé?” She asked looking up to me.

Hearing her call me that brought a smile to my face.

“Of course you can, as long as I can do the same.” I said leaning my head down to lightly rest the upper part of my helmet on her forehead.

She hummed in contentment and then said, “I love you, Din.”

“I love you too.” I said smiling despite knowing she couldn’t see it.

“I should finish the eggs, they’ll burn.”

“But you’re so warm.” She said pulling me closer for a brief moment before letting me go so I could finish.

“You know you wouldn’t be so cold if you wore something warmer to bed.” I said turning back to check on the food. Of course, I was only teasing.

“But I’m comfy.” She said as she sat down at the table. She was still only wearing sleep shorts and one of my old long-sleeved shirts.

I laughed at her response. My eyes wandered back to the jar of spices in the cabinet. “Hey, did you buy this for something specific?” I asked, holding it up for her to see what I was talking about.

“No, I found it on a supply run, they had quite a few traditional Mandalorian goods, I decided to grab some just in case. Were you going to put it in your eggs?” She asked.

“I thought about it.” I said.

“Well put some in mine, please. I remember we used to dump whatever spices we had into our eggs to make them better when we were hopping from job to job.” She repeated the thought I had earlier.

I continued the eggs and added some of the spice to ours, leaving the kids as they were. If I would have put it into his he would’ve definitely been in tears. Dishes from Mandalore had a reputation of being incredibly spicy, it takes time to get used to eating them.

Once everything was done I put mine and Yn onto plates and took the kid’s off the heat but left it covered so one of us could feed him a little bit once he was up.

I put both of our plates on the table as well as a glass of water for each of us before walking over to shut off the lights so we could eat together.

“This is really good, Din.” She said between bites.

“Thank you.”

The rest of the meal passed in silence as we both devoured our food. I had to admit it was probably the best plate of eggs I had ever made. After we were both finished I collected the plates to wash them. Then the kid’s cooing and gurgling started up.

“I guess someone is up.” Yn said.

“Yeah, would you go get him and I’ll get his plate ready?” I asked already reaching for my helmet to put it back on.

“Yeah, I can feed him while you get ready to head out.” She offered on her way out.

By the time the kid was halfway through eating I was already out of the refresher from taking a shower. I began to get dressed and I could hear Yn to talking to the kid.

“Me and your Papa are going to get married...I know it’s so exciting! But we have to wait until we can have another Mandalorian present, but I’m willing to wait as long as I have to… He’s going to be more worried about us, he had a really scary dream last night… but don’t worry, he will never let anything happen to you. He loves you too much.”

I smiled as I got dressed and put on my armor as I listened to her talk to him. Once I was done I walked back into the kitchen to switch off with her.

“I’ll take the kid so you can go get ready, I left plenty of hot water for you if you wanted to shower.” I said, offering her a hand to help her up.

“Thanks, I’ll be quick so we can head out. Did you wear an extra shirt under your armor?” She asked, stopping in the doorway to turn back to me.

“No…” I trailed off.

“Put the kid in his pod while I’m in the shower and put on an extra shirt, you’re going to get sick.”  She said.

I did as she said while she took her shower. Neither of us ever took very long in the shower, less than five minutes. The Crest never had a huge supply of warm water so we had learned long ago that when you’re showing you do it quickly or it’ll end up freezing you out.

When she came out I expected her to be dressed and nearly ready to go but when I turned around after hearing the door open I was surprised to see her with no shirt.

Yn Pov

After I got out of the shower I realized I didn’t actually grab a shirt, just a sports bra. I shrugged then put on the clothes I did have. Then I walked out to go get my shirt and Din turned to me just as I stepped out.

“What?” I asked as he stood staring slightly.

“Nothing, but I think you should put on a little bit more… it’s cold.” He said with a deadpan sense of humor.

“Oh really? I didn’t notice.” I said walking over to where our clothes were kept, “I forgot a shirt.” I dug through the shits I had trying to find a long-sleeved one that would fit. It was buried at the bottom but I finally found one.

I put it on then reached for my jacket. I slipped it on over my arms and went to zip it. And therein lies the issue. It wouldn’t zip. I tried multiple times.

“Damn it!” I exclaimed quietly as Din was getting the kid ready.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

I took the jacket off and haphazardly tossed it back to where it was.

“Stupid jacket won’t zip over my stomach.” I sighed.

“Grab one of my thick undershirts and wear it like a sweatshirt. It’ll keep you warm.” He suggested.

While his suggestion was very helpful, that wasn’t the point. I could care less about being warm right now. The fact was that jacket was one of the first clothes that I had I put on and realized after the fact that it was now too small and I had no other solutions for that were from my own clothes. Most of the time I could tell before putting something on that it wasn’t going to fit me, or if I put on a shirt and it felt too tight on my stomach I had plenty of others. But this time that was the only jacket I actually owned and it wouldn’t fit.

I’m not sure why it affected me so much but it did. I once again was haphazard with my actions as I dug out one of the shirts that he is talking about. Once I found it and pulled it on and turned to him.

“Let’s go.” I said. My tone was short, but it wasn’t necessarily directed at him.

“Yn, it’s okay, it was just a jacket. This only means that the Bean is growing strong and healthy. It’s natural.” He tried to comfort me.

He was right and I knew that, truly I did. But it didn’t make it any less upsetting.

“I know Din, I’m just frustrated. Okay? I’m allowed to be frustrated. Now let’s go. The sooner we leave, the sooner we can get back and be warm.” I said, holding my hand out for him to take.  

He took my hand in his and then I used my free hand to take the child. He was wrapped up in a warm blanket, ready to face the coldness outside of the ship. Once we were off the ship, Din let go of my hand briefly to shut the ramp using the panel on his forearm.

“Okay, so we need bacta spray and patches, some extra bandages just in case. Is there anything specific that you want me to cook? We can try and get what I would need to make it while we’re out.” Din said we began the trek into town.

“Honestly, ever since I bought those Mandalorian spices, I’ve been craving Tiingilar. But it takes so long to make.” I said honestly.

I had encountered a few cravings while I’ve been pregnant, and I’ve come to discover that most of them are foods I used to eat with the family that took me in after being rescued. They had parents who grew up making traditional Mandalorian foods and they had continued to make them as well and eventually taught me how to make some of them as well.

“Well since we have the spices for it, it shouldn't be too hard to get the rest of what we need for it. I’ll make it for you after the job for Trak.” He said.

“Thank you. We’ll have to make the kid bone broth that night though. He won’t be able to handle it.” I said smiling down at the small green creature in my arm.

“Is there anything else?” He asked.

“I know it’s not essential, but I’ve already reread the book I have to him twice. If we could just see if anyone has books, I would appreciate stopping to look.” I said.

“Of course we can.” He said, causing a large smile to creep onto my face. My frustration from earlier had melted away.

Finding the medical supplies and ingredients for future meals had been easy, so was finding a store that sold books. The hard part now was picking a book.

I was debating on getting a short one that we could finish before the baby was born so I wouldn’t have two feel guilty if there were days when I just didn’t have time or the energy to read to him. But then I felt selfish at that thought.

“Din, I don't know how long of a book I should get. Should I get one that I can finish reading him before the baby comes or a longer one that will last until after the Bean gets here? I just don’t want him to feel like there’s a new baby so we had to finish our book sooner or be upset if there’s a day after the baby’s here that I just can’t read to him.” I voiced my concerns to Din.

“Get a longer one. That way you won’t have to rush and if there’s ever a time that you need to take care of the baby, I can always read it for you two.” Din offered.

“You’re amazing, Din.” I said, squeezing his hand that was still laced with mine.

I handed the kid over to him and began looking for a longer book. It took me about five minutes to find one that I thought everyone would enjoy. We began to make our way to the front of the store when the kid began squealing slightly and reaching towards something.

I looked over to where he was reaching and saw a very cute blanket on display.

“Hey Din, I know you say we buy too much for the kid but look at it.” I said, dragging him over to it. “Plus the blankets we have aren’t nearly as soft.” I added after feeling it.

“You can get it for him if I can get this one for the Bean. We don’t have anything for them yet. And we don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl, so this one is perfect.” Din said pointing to a blanket that was folded beside the other one.

Hearing Din said that almost made me cry. He was going to be such a great dad.

“Deal.” I said smiling.

He handed me the kid and let go of my hand as he carefully took the first blanket down off where it was being displayed and gently folded it. Then he picked up the other one and we began to walk to the front where the store clerk was. After he paid, we began to make our way back to our ship.

“That was a successful trip, I’d say.” I said as we tag-teamed putting everything away.

The kid was wrapped up in his new blanket, completely happy with his life at the moment.

Din had emptied a drawer for us to start putting stuff for the Bean. I was folding up the blanket and putting in the drawer when Din came in.

“Can I ask you something?” He asked.

“Of course.” I said, turning to him.

“Just be honest, okay?”

“Okay.” I was getting suspicious and slightly nervous now.

“Do you want the Bean to be a boy or a girl?” He asked.

“What do you want it to be?” I asked, trying to avoid the question.

“No, no, no. I asked you first.” He said playfully.

I sighed heavily before walking over and sitting on the edge of our bed. I looked down at my hands trying to gather my thoughts. I had been dreading this question and finding out. I could feel my emotions building up. It wasn’t Din’s fault, it was a genuine question and he had no idea how much it would have affected me. Before he had a chance to take back his question I was answering.

“As much as I’ve always wanted a baby girl. Despite how cute you would look with our little girl, I don’t want one now. I really don’t want this baby to be a girl, Din.” I said tears pooling in my eyes.

“Hey, hey, hey. It’s okay. Why are you crying? It’s okay.” He said, at my side, the moment the first year slipped out.

“It’s just… sometimes I can’t help but think about how I got pregnant. And anytime I do I get scared about the idea of it being a girl. I don’t want her to grow up and have the same thing happen to her. I couldn’t live with knowing that she had to go through the same thing I did.” I confessed. I was full-on crying now. I was grateful that Din had already removed his armpit as I cried into his chest and he held me.

“Sh, cyar'ika. It’s okay. Everything is going to be okay.” He continued to whisper to me as he tried to calm me down.

“If it’s a girl, I promise you that I will never let a man hurt her. She won’t even be allowed to see anybody until she’s 50 if that’s what it takes.” He said trying to lighten the mood that settled onto the ship.

While his efforts were appreciated, it did little to stop my fears. Of course, if it was a girl, I knew Din would love her and protect her, but that doesn’t change the fact that she would eventually be out on her own. Right now, having a boy just seemed better than having a girl. I would love to have a baby girl in the future with Din, but it just wasn’t the right timing now.

“If it helps, I want a boy first. Growing up, before the Mandalorians rescued me, I always remember wanting a little sister. I wanted to be able to be the protective older brother. Since I never got that, I knew if I ever had children I wanted them to.” He said, a hand resting on my stomach.

I knew I had to bite the bullet. I had to know if it was a boy or a girl. I had only a few months left to get over that fear if it was a girl. I had a lot of mental baggage over this and I needed to do my best to get past it so I could focus on the baby once it was here.

“Din, go get the envelope. I’m ready to know.” I said sitting up off of him.

“Are you sure?” He said.

I only nodded. He stood and went up into the cockpit briefly before returning with the envelope. I was nearly shaking with nerves.

“You open it.” I said. I knew I wouldn’t be able to. I would psych myself out.

“Okay.” He said.

He carefully ripped the seal on it and pulled out the papers and scans from my last doctor visit.

I was mentally cursing the helmet since it was blocking my ability to read his expression. He was taking a painfully long time to read it over.

“Din?” I asked.

His head snapped up and he sighed slowly.

HIM WITH GLASSES MAKES ME WEAK!!!!!!

There were still about three-fourths of a day of travel left until we reached Kuiil.

We were all sitting in the cockpit. Din was flying per usual, and I was sitting with one of my legs bouncing uncontrollably and one hand absentmindedly rubbing my stomach. Cara was in the seat opposite of me, and the kid was playing in his corner. I had been restless all day it seems. And today hit like a ton of bricks. Luckily no one had noticed yet. Or so I thought.

“Are you okay?” Din asked, taking in the ticking of my foot against the metal floor.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” I breathed out.

I was far from fine. Very far. I need some form of relief but had no way of getting it and it was driving me crazy. Usually, I would be able to suppress it and ignore it but today it was suddenly much stronger. Cara eyed me questioningly.

Silence settled between us and usually that was fine. We sat in comfortable silence quite a bit on any normal day, but now it was deafening.

“Hey Mando, did you ever… you know, do it, with someone after we quit working together, or even while we were working together?” I asked, without any regrets, maybe this would be enough. Just talking about it. I had to admit though using the name Mando felt weird, I had become accustomed to calling him by his name, but since Cara was here, I couldn’t.

Cara's eyes went wide as she turned to me trying to figure out if I had really just flat out asked him those questions with her sitting right beside us.

“What?” Din asked, turning to me for a second. Even through his helmet, I knew he was shocked at the question.

“Just trying to make some interesting conversation, so did you?” I pressed.

“Yes, I did.” He stated matter of factly. Mentally I was screaming for some elaboration on his answer.

“Really, who? Please don’t say Xi’an.” I asked, digging for more details.

“No, definitely not Xi’an. It was just a few one-night stand type of things after we parted ways. They were nothing serious, just a way to take the edge off. Usually, I would just do it myself but I guess sometimes you just need the real deal.” He finally gave into the conversation.

“Cara?” I asked, turning to her.

Her eyebrows were knit together as if she was considering whether or not she should answer.

“Oh, what the hell. I did a few times, usually when me and one of the others got a little too drunk, but we never really talked about it. Most of the time we just pretended like it never happened. There really wasn’t much time for that kind of thing. What about you Yn?” She asked, smirking.

I sighed. I knew I brought this upon myself. I made them answer I have to too.

“I’m in the same boat as him, I guess.” I breathed, it was getting unbearable at this point and now I was left empty-handed seeing as the conversation had basically ended. My foot went back to tapping on the floor and I shift uncomfortably in my chair.

“Yn, are you sure you’re okay?” He asked again.

“Yes.” I answered breathily.

“Really?” Cara interjected.

“No. I’m not fine.” I finally gave in.

“What’s wrong?” Din asked full of concern.

Now I was embarrassed. I couldn’t bring myself to flat out say that I was in a certain, delicate situation with myself. I had to ease into it.

“Did you read any of the pregnancy articles on my datapad?” I asked him.

Cara stifled a laugh as she had probably just figured out where this was going.

“I read all the ones you had saved, yes.” He said.

“You’re too good to me…” I sighed, I hadn’t expected him to read all of them, hell, I hadn’t read every single one of them even, “Do you remember reading something about how later in a pregnancy, a woman’s sex drive can rise?”

Cara laughed for real this time but stopped when I shot her a look. And she threw her hands up in surrender as a way to apologize but her smirk remained.

“Yes…” he paused for a moment before continuing, “Is that what this is about?” He asked I had a feeling he was smirking under his helmet.

“You know, I laughed when I read that. I really didn’t think it was a thing, but man it is real. Very real.” I confessed sighing and resting my head back against the chair.

“You know there are other ways to relive that, right?” Cara suggested, now there was a clear trace of teasing on her.

Din nodded in her direction before adding on to the conversation by saying, “She’s right you know?”

“Yes, I’m not stupid.” I said with a sighing.

“Well, just go down to the main part of the ship, close the door to the cockpit and take care of what you need to do.” He suggested simply as if this wasn’t the most embarrassing conversation we could ever have. In fact, I’m pretty sure this is the most embarrassing thing we had ever discussed.

“Don’t you think I’ve tried that?” I asked him.

“And…”

I ran a hand down my face, I was really about to expose myself.

“It didn’t work, if anything I swear it made it worse. It’s like my body is retaliating because of it.” I sighed, I was very frustrated at the moment.

Din and Cara both laughed. They really laughed at me.

“Assholes.” I mumbled and crossed my arms over my chest. I refused to even look in either of their directions, instead, I focussed on the blue lights zipping past the window in front of me.

“You have to admit this is pretty funny. I mean, don’t you find it just the slightest bit funny? It didn’t work.” He said.

I could still hear small chuckles coming from him. I knew he wasn’t making fun of me and I knew that deep down it was a pretty funny situation, but the need that I was feeling made it impossible to realize that.

“Guys, just stop, please. It’s not funny, it’s actually quite annoying. So please shut the fuck up. I don’t want to talk about it anymore. I shouldn’t have brought it up. Let’s just forget this conversation happened and go back to sitting in silence.” I rolled my eyes at them.

“Okay, I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” Din was quick to apologize, his small fits of laughter were now completely gone. And Cara’s had pretty much stopped as well.

“Yeah, sure you are.” I mumbled.

“I am really,” he turned the ship on autopilot, and turned to me, “Let me prove it.”

“What do you mean?” I asked, I knew what I wanted him to mean but I needed to confirm that was actually what he was saying.

He stood and walked over to me, his back facing Cara.

“I trust Cara enough to watch the kid and not crash the ship for a little bit. We can seal them off in here, head down to our bed, and take care of your problem. I really do hate seeing you so uncomfortable, let me help you. Only if you want to, if you’re not ready then it’s fine, forget that I offered.” He tried to speak quietly so only I would hear him.

“I want to, I just don’t really want our first time to be because I needed it because of stupid hormones.” I admitted. I was also trying to keep my voice down. I really did need this right now, but I didn’t want to think back to our first time and it just been me being needy, and him just doing it to help me. I wanted it to still be memorable and special.

“Well, then how about we don’t count it as our first time? Just count as me helping the woman that I love.” He suggested.

I thought for a moment, “Let’s go.” I said nodding. That was good enough for me.

“Cara can you-“ Din began asking but she cut him off.

“Way ahead of you Mando. Go take care of your girl!” She exclaimed rather loudly, standing up and going over to the pilot’s seat.

Din wasted no time giving me his hand to help me up from my chair. We went down to our cot, the kid was up in the cockpit with Cara.

When we were securely alone together, he turned to me.

“Yn, before we do anything, I just want to make sure you are comfortable with this, I don’t want to trigger any bad memories of…” He trailed off but I knew what he was talking about.

Neither of us actually liked to bring it up. We didn’t ignore it to a point where it was unhealthy to keep it bottled up. But since it was such a touchy thing, we didn’t talk about it much. Noth that it needed to be talked about a whole lot. We had already made the decision that Din was the father of the baby, and that’s all that really mattered.

“It’s okay. I do want this.” I reassured him.

He nodded, “Okay. But if anything happens, you tell me and we’ll stop, okay? I want to make sure I take care of you.” He asked with a serious tone.

“I will, I promise.” I said.

“Good, go sit on the bed so I can take off my helmet.” He commanded gently.

I did as I was told. He shut out the lights and began removing his armor, I sat at the edge of the bed waiting for him. Once he was finished he walked over so he stood right in front of me. When I felt his leg brush against mine I shifted slightly, to begin removing my shirt, but he stopped me.

“No. I said I was going to take care of you, let me handle everything.” His sweet, unmodulated voice whispered to me.

There was a new, husky, edge to his voice that I had never heard before. It was hot. In an instant, he was gently getting to work on what we had come down here to do.

I had seen hundreds, maybe even thousands of stars during my travels but none compared to the ones I saw while being with Din. It was pure bliss. He seemed to know how to do everything just right. Sure there had been the slight issue on the tight area we were working with, that added to my eight-month baby belly, made for some trial and error. But once we figured it out, it was smooth sailing as DIn took over control. It felt like there was not a single inch of my skin that was left untouched by him.

When we were done we laid there catching our breaths beside each other. I had to admit, it was way better than I was expecting or ready for. He wasn’t timid like he was going to somehow hurt me or the Bean, nor was he overly rough. It was perfect.

The lights were still off so he could keep his helmet off.

“Better?” He teased. His real voice still gave me chills, even if I had heard many times before.

“Much better, thank you.” I said genuinely.

Silence fell once again as we laid facing each other. He had one arm draped over my midsection hold me close to him with my stomach pressed up against his. I had closed my eyes and was just trying to savor the moment, I’m sure he was too.

“Hey Din?” I whispered not wanting to disrupt it too much.

He hummed quietly in response.

“Just for the record, our first time was pretty damn great.” I said, smirking.

“I thought we weren’t going to count it?” He asked.

“What do you expect me to do? Forget the most perfect, intimate experience I have ever had with the man I love. Not a chance.” I said.

“Perfect huh?” He teased and let out a small laugh.

“It was.” I truly did mean it.

“Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum, Yn.” He whispered. (I love you, Yn.)

“Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum sa pirusti.” I whispered back before leaving forward slowly to kiss him. (I love you too.)

He was the one who pulled back first and sighed, “We should probably get dressed.”

“Yeah.” I agreed.

At this point in my pregnancy, getting dressed is a task that is much easier said than done and he had to help me more than I care to admit. We both got our clothes back on and began to make our way back up. Din had put his helmet back on and flipped on the lights and stopped me before I stepped onto the first rung of the ladder.

“Oh, Yn, I’m so sorry.” He apologized while looking down at me.

“Why?” I asked, confused.

“You have a little something…” he trailed off as his fingers ghosted over a spot of my collarbone.

Suddenly the lightbulb in my mind went off and I realized what he was apologizing for.

“Din, you did not!” I yelled slightly and walked over to the refresher and stood in front of the mirror.

Sure enough, right there poking out of my shirt was a hickey. I groaned.

“Diiiiiiiin.” I whined, “Cara’s going to say  something about that.”

“Oops.” He shrugged.

He really had the audacity to simply shrug and say oops! Then to add on to that he chuckled like he was proud of his work.

“It’s not like she didn’t know what was going on down here.” He joked.

“Din Djarin, I will get you back for this.” I warned.

“Every inch of me is covered. Good luck.” He shot back.

“Is that a challenge?” I asked.

“Perhaps it is. And I’m looking forward to it.” I could hear the smirk through his modulator. I loved the man, but sometimes I wanted to punch him in the arm but I didn’t want a bloody knuckle from hitting solid Beskar.

We went up into the cockpit and were greeted by Cara smirking at us.

“So you better now, Yn?” She teased.

“Yes.” I sighed.

“Oh, I can see you both enjoyed it. Are you like trying to claim her?” She asked clearly referencing the visible hickey, “Look don’t me wrong, you seem like a great girl and all, but you’re just not my type, I’m sorry. She’s all your’s Mando.” She said and got up from the pilot’s chair.

Din took her seat and checked over the controls as I sat back down in my seat. I was grateful for the fact that I could sit down without fidgeting. I felt eyes staring at me and turned to see Cara looking in my direction. Or more like directly at the hickey.

“Cara, have you never seen a hickey?” I asked. I knew she had but the way she was staring at it made it seem like she was deep in thought over it.

“Of course I have. I just didn’t peg him as the type, I guess. It’s surprising.” She said with a slight shrug as she leaned back in her chair some.

“Yeah, there’s a lot that surprised me too.” I admitted with a smirk. “But those things are not for small ears to hear.” I joked as the kid came up to me and made grabby hands to be held. I picked him and held him in my arms.

“I don’t think Cara’s ears want to hear them either.” Cara said and scrunched her nose up slightly.

We all laughed at her remark. It was nice to have these few lighthearted moments. But something told me that this was just the calm before the storm.

an: alight, this is very different then what i usually write. I actually wrote this way back when I first come up with the concept for this story and wrote it really as a personal part of the story. But as I contiued to write it I really felt like sharing it. So I went back, fixed a few things and added on to it. I hope you liked it. 

Also if you have commented on some of my last few parts you may have noticed that I try to respond to yall as much as I can because I love hearing from yall, so I decided to return the favor.

IMPORTANT A/N AT THE END, PLEASE READ 

Gif not mine  again it has nothing to do with this part of the story he’s just adorable) 

I just nodded my head after hearing him sigh. Judging by the conversion we had just had and his long sigh I had a feeling that I knew what it was.

“Okay.” I sighed before he even told me.

“I haven’t even told you yet.” Din said.

“You don’t need to, I know.” I admitted. I was trying to remain calm on the outside but on the inside, I was freaking out.

“Okay, so you know we’re getting another son?” Din quipped.

I stood stunned. It took a minute for the words to fully process. This wasn’t what I was expecting. Not in the least.

“Quit lying to me.” I said in disbelief, standing up and walking over to him as quickly as I could.

“Look for yourself.” He held out the paper for me.

I took it into my shaking hands and sure enough, there was a note from the doctor that read, “Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Djarin, you are having a baby boy. He’s healthy and growing well.”

Tears pricked at my eyes as I looked from the paper up to Din. I couldn’t believe it.

“Don’t cry, it’s okay.” He shushed me comfortingly, his voice cracked slightly exposing the fact that he too was tearing up under his helmet.

“I’m just happy.” I cried, throwing my arms around him and holding him close as his arms held me tightly.

“You’re going to be outnumbered.” Din joked then let out a small chuckle.

“Give it a few years, we’ll even it out.” I shot back playfully.

“You know I’m going to hold you to that, right?” He asked.

“That’s fine by me. This is just the beginning for our family.” I said.

I could picture it now. Having a couple more kids with Din. Watching them grow up together with the Kid. Teaching them the ways of the Mandalorians, telling them wild stories of our adventures as bounty hunters, it all just seemed perfect.

“It really does sound perfect.” Din’s voice echoed in my head, snapping me out of thoughts.

“Did I say that all out loud?” I asked slightly embarrassed but relieved that he agreed.

“It does sound perfect, Yn. But we can’t have that if we’re constantly on the run from other bounty hunters trying to get you or the kid.” He admitted sadly.

“We’ll figure it out. If there was one thing we could always do was figure a way out of our current situation. I believe us, Din. And I’m not sure what it is but something tells me that there’s a big change coming for us and I don’t think it’s becoming new parents.” I said, suddenly feeling a shift in the atmosphere around us.

I couldn’t tell if it was a good or bad change coming but something was coming that I was certain of.

“Well, like you said we’ll figure it out.” He promised and rested the top of his helmet onto my forehead.

“I need to start getting the controls warmed up and ready to fly if we’re going to start heading to Trak’s.” He spoke after a moment or two of silence.

“Okay.” I nodded and he pulled away and headed up the ladder to the cockpit.

I went over to where the kid was standing up in his pod reaching up for me to take him into my arms. I scooped him up happily and hugged him close.

“Hey little guy. You staying warm with your new blanket?” I asked and he cooed back at me making me smile even more.

“I don’t know if you heard but you’re getting a brother!... I know it’s exciting! But I promise me and your Papa still loves you. Never forget that.” I said and planted a kiss on top of his head, causing him to go into a fit of giggles.

While I was talking to the kid Din came back down the ladder. He walked up behind me and hugged me from behind. His hands came to rest on the sides of my stomach, and he looked down at the kid from over my right shoulder. I leaned back into him some. He was warm like he always was.

“What’s going on down here? I heard my name.” He asked.

“I was telling him that he’s going to have a brother soon and that no matter what we are still going to love him.” I explained.

“Do you think he understands us? Like actually understand what we’re telling him when we talk to him?” He asked in more of a whisper. Which caused me to smile because I knew if he didn’t think that he could understand us then he wouldn’t have whispered his question.

“I think he understands more than we think he does.” I admitted smiling down at our little green kid who was starting back up at us with huge eyes filled with wonder.

“We need to get the Crest up, there’s an incentive storm heading this way and if she isn’t up within the hour, we’ll be stuck here for a couple of days.” He sighed slightly sadly as he began to let his grip on me slip.

“Okay, want to help me up to the cockpit so I can help you and get us out of here quicker?” I offered.

“Yeah, that would help a lot. Thank you.” He said as we walked the short distance to the ladder.

I handed him the kid and he held him in one arm and with his free arm, he helped to hold me steady as I climbed up. Once my shoulders were out up top I put my hands on the ground to help support myself as I came up a little high until my waist was out and I could turn to sit on the ground and just pull my legs out. I sat and waited for Din to come up with the kid. It took him no time for him to get up here with me.

“Are you okay?” He asked, looking down at where I was still sat.

“Yeah. It’s not easy climbing with the bean still in there.” I sighed and reached a hand up to him so he could help me up off the floor.

He took it and pulled me gently as if I weighed nothing. We walked from the small corridor into the actual cockpit. Din set the kid down so he could go play while we got the ship ready.

“Have you done the preflight checks yet?” I asked walking over to the control panel.

“No, I was trying to let everything warm up, but it’s hard because the temperatures outside keep dropping.” He was slightly frustrated, I could tell with his body language.

“Well this is about as good as they’ll get, so let’s get those started.” I said already flipping switches.

I was making quick work of the preflight checks that I didn’t even realize Din was just standing there until I turned slightly to press a button and saw him leaning against the wall.

“What are you doing? Are you just going to stand there or are you going to help with the preflight? I thought you wanted to hurry and get out of here.” I asked in mock annoyance.

“Nah, I’d rather watch my gorgeous fiance man our ship.” He said smugly.

I rolled my eyes but still smiled as I let out a small laugh, “You know Din if you keep using that it’s going to get old.” I teased.

“Maybe for you, but it’s never going to get old, not until we’re actually married then I won’t have a reason to say fiance anymore.” He shot back.

“Okay loverboy, ship is ready.” I stood up from the pilot’s seat and turned to him.

“Do you want to fly for a bit? I’ll keep an eye on the kid. Me and him can make some lunch in a little bit. Only if you want to though.” He offered and a huge smile spread across my face.

“That sounds great. Grab the kid and either hold him or put him in his seat and sit down so I can get the Crest up in the air.” I said reaching for the controls.

“Alright buddy, come sit with Papa.” I heard him say as he walked over to the kid. I heard the kid make a small whining sound before Din spoke to him again, “No, Mama is going to fly right now.”

I’m not sure what he did next but after he sat down the kid began to laugh. Within no time I had the ship up off the ground and was climbing up into the atmosphere. Once I was completely out of the planet’s atmosphere I was ready for the coordinates to Trak’s place.

“He Din, when you get a second can you come put in the coordinates?” I asked, not turning to look at him.

When I didn’t get a response I asked again and still didn’t hear anything from him. I put the ship into a straight trajectory and flipped to autopilot for a moment to turn to him. The sight before me melted my heart.

There he was laying on his side the ground, his helmet covered head being propped up by one arm as he played with the kid. He didn’t know I had seen him. I just turned back to face forward in the pilot’s chair and reached for Din’s datapad that he left sitting on the dash. I knew he would have the coordinates saved somewhere on there.

And sure enough after just a few minutes of looking, I found what I was looking for. I put the coordinates in and prepared to make the jump.

“Hey, I’m about to make the jump to hyperspace.” I warned.

“Okay, go ahead.” He said.

The next minute we were flying past the stars. The familiar blue glow filled the cockpit. I set the autopilot back on a leaned back in the seat and just relaxed as space flew past our ship.

I closed my eyes for a few minutes and just continued to relax. It was nice and quiet at the moment. Too quiet actually. I slowly sat up and opened my eyes. Then I turned to where Din had been with the kid to find that they were both gone.

I stood from my seat and made my way over to the ladder.

“Din? Where’d you two go?” I called down to him.

“In the kitchen, I’m making lunch, the kid is… helping in a way I guess.” He called back laughing.

“Okay.” I said and went to turn back and sit in the cockpit until they were done. I didn’t want to impose on their bonding time together.

“Do you want to come down here and wait until it’s ready?” He asked I could already hear him making his way over to the ladder.

“No, I’ll stay up here. You spend your time with him. Just come get me when it’s ready.” I called back then made my way back to the cockpit to sit.

I was glad I left my own datapad up here the other day. I grabbed it and began searching for what I was looking for. I had gotten a message about a rumor from an old friend and I was trying to find out if it was true. If it was then I might have a plan for Din, the kid, and me.

If I could find out if the information was reliable then I may have a place for us to go and be safe. But it would open up a whole new part of me that Din still didn’t know. Even after all these years, there was one part of me that I didn’t tell him. Very few people knew about it. And I wasn’t sure that I was ready to tell him.

I felt guilty about it. He had proposed and we were going to be together for the rest of our lives, and yet I still couldn’t bring myself to tell him. I had a few items hidden from him even. On his own ship. It wasn’t because I was ashamed, I was just scared of how he’d react.

I would tell him eventually, I knew I would. I just wasn’t sure when.

Before I had the chance to dwell on it any longer Din was calling me from the base of the ladder.

“Hey Yn, lunch is ready and I already fed the kid, he’s laying down for a nap right now. I was about to eat, do you want to come down and join me?” He asked.

“Yeah, give me just a second.” I said. I turned off my datapad but not before making sure to erase everything that I had pulled up on it.

Once we were both down in the kitchen he made us both a plate of food while I sat down. He put the plates on the table and then went to turn off the lights.

Lunch passed with small talk, mainly about the bean, the kid, and the future. We were both excited and nervous. Excited because we were facing it together. And nervous because we both knew how crazy and hard life could get and neither of us wanted our children to experience any of it.

The rest of the day was fairly uneventful. The kid played some more with Din in the cockpit. I read to both of them before dinner. The three of us made dinner together. The kid’s version of helping really just consisted of being held by either me or Din as we did most of the work.

The whole evening I had a smile plastered onto my face that wouldn’t go away. Not that I wanted it to.

Dinner went well. If the kid ending up with half of his food on his face means that it went well. We decided to be ambitious and let the kid feed himself something other than bone broth, which he has no problem with, needless to say, it wasn’t the best decision. But he was having fun and made us laugh along with him.

“Din, you go ahead and eat. I'm going to go help him get washed up and into bed.” I said already standing up and scooping up the kid.

“Are you sure? I can do it.” Din offered.

“Yeah, I got it. You made lunch today, I can handle bath time.” I said making my way out of the kitchen.

I used the small sink in the refresher to bathe the kid. His little robe was dirty as well, luckily he actually had a few extra that Omera had shown me how to make back on Sorgon. They went the best, but they would do until I could wash the one he was wearing.

He was very cooperative during his bath, he even seemed to have enjoyed it. When I was done washing him up, I wrapped him the softest towel I could find. Once he was dried off, I began to get him dressed for bed. His big bright eyes were becoming hooded as he was getting sleepy.

“Oh buddy, did your bath make you tired?” I asked walking over to his little pod.

He let out a yawn as I lifted him up to give him a soft kiss on his head then I laid him down. I covered him up with his new blanket.

“Good night little guy. Your Papa and I love you.” I said before walking over to the panel on the wall and dining the lights down so he could fall asleep but we’d still be able to see when we got ready for bed.

I lightly tapped on the door and waited for a response before entering to make sure Din had his helmet on. But instead of saying anything, he just let the door open. I walked in to find him already washing up some of the dishes.

“I covered your plate to help it stay warm.” He said.

I made my way over to the table and sat down to eat. Once I was done, I stood and helped him finish the dishes. We were trying to be as quiet as possible to not wake the kid.

We were laying in bed a little later that night, one of us was going to have to get up early so we could take over the controls and drop out of hyperspace once we got closer to Trak’s. The ship was still on autopilot, but Din had set an alarm to alert us if anything was going wrong in the cockpit.

As we landed together I couldn’t help that I couldn’t lay still. I was still extremely giddy over the news from earlier that day.

“Yn, you need to relax, and try to get some sleep.” Din said laughing quietly.

“I can’t I’m too excited. We’re having baby boy, Din.” I said.

“So are you just not going to sleep until he’s born?” He teased.

“Oh shut up.” I said, lightly jabbing him with my elbow.

A silence fell between us for a moment before I continued talking.

“I was thinking about something while giving the kid his bath.” I said with a much more serious tone.

“Uh oh, that’s never good.” He joked lightly before adding, “What were you thinking about?” His tone matched mine.

“You said you always wanted a little sister to be protective over. And so I wanted you to know right now, that I want to have more kids with you in the future. And I promise that I will eventually give you a baby girl that our boys can be protective over, even if that means the kid just eats any frogs that come near her.” I let out a small laugh at my last comment.

I began to get nervous when I didn’t hear Din say anything. Then I felt a kiss being pressed to my shoulder, and then his shaky voice saying, “Thank you, Yn. I can’t thank you enough for everything. I really can’t wait until you’re officially Mrs.Djarin.” He raised himself up some and pressed another kiss just below my ear.

“I can’t wait to be Mrs.Djarin. I love you, Din.” I said back and scooted even closer to him if that was even possible.

“I love you too.”

Shortly after that, I felt myself drifting to sleep, and I was relieved to hear his breathing evening out as well as he began to fall asleep.

A/N PLEASE READ

So I know some of y’all really wanted the baby to be a girl but to be honest from what I’ve read on other stories I feel like that is what most people do and there’s nothing wrong with that I just wanted to do something a little different than what I had read, plus given the circumstances of how the pregnancy happened I get like this was a reasonable and understandable way of making it not a girl. But of course, if you really want it to be a girl you can always pretend that is what it is. I’m sorry...

gif is not mine

We continued walking in silence. I still felt numb to the world around me. Nothing would ever be the same for me. Although I knew deep down that I still had the Kid, the Bean, and a whole clan of people that would help support me back on Avis, none of them could ever live up to what Din is, or I guess was, to me. He was my everything at this point. He was the Kid’s papa, he was going to be the Bean’s papa, we were going to have more kids in the future, we were going to get married at the first chance we got, but now… none of that would ever happen.

Sure there was a chance that I may find someone new in the future, but that’s the thing I don’t want anyone new. In fact, I don’t want anything new. If it was up to me, I’d go back to where it was just me, Din, and the Kid cruising through space. Everything was so much easier then, no one was dying then. And most importantly, we still had each other.

The only thing that pulled me out of my thoughts was the sound of footsteps down the corridor to our left. I stopped dead in my tracks and held my lightsaber out a little further, illuminating the mouth of the tunnel with its light.

“What’s going on, what are you doing?” Cara asked.

“There’s something down there.” I warned, I tried to sound strong but my voice was hoarse and my throat was raw from sobbing earlier.

“Then maybe we should get going. If those Imperial Troopers have gotten down here, it is only a matter of time before they find us.” Greef suggested clearly scared of what might be down there.

“No, if they’re Imps then they’d come at us from behind and then just kill the two of you and take me and the Kid. I already lost Din, I’m not losing anyone else today. Understood?” I sneered. I wasn’t actually trying to be rude but I couldn’t go through any more loss toady. If I lost anyone else today that would be it for me, I couldn’t lose anyone else.  

Cara drew her blaster and I handed my extra one to Greef. We all stood ready to face whatever was about to come out of the darkness before us. Just as the figure approached the light and I saw who it was, the lightsaber slipped from my grip. The moment it was in free fall it automatically shut off. I was walking, then walking faster and faster, I would’ve run if I could.

It was Din. When I was directly in front of him I reached out to run my hands over his arms, his chest, and finally his helmet.

“I-Is this re- Is this real? Are- Are you really alive?” I stuttered due to a fine mixture of shock and having a raw throat from screaming earlier.

He placed his hands over mine and held them to where they laid against the smooth, cold metal of his helmet.

“Yes, I’m alive, and yes, this is real. I’m here, we’re going to be alright.” He whispered, his voice still sounded a bit week but it was miles better than what it had sounded like when we left him.

“H-how is this po-possible?” I stammered, tears of joy slipping from my eyes. I was amazed I even had enough tears left for.

“The droid.” Din said with a slight scoff.

I turned to IG-11, I was beginning to have a soft spot for the hunk of metal. First, he saved the kid and now Din. Maybe not all droids were bad.

“But what about-“

“I am not a living thing, therefore no code has been broken.” The droid cut me off.

I looked back up at Din, “Is this real?” I whispered again in disbelief. I kept my hands on him because deep down it felt that if I took my hands off of him he’d fade away into the shadows around us and he’d be gone again.

He took my hands down off of his helmet but still held onto them tightly.

“Yes. And I’m not going anywhere. I made promises to the three of you, and I intend to keep them.” He said leaning down to rest his helmet on mine.

“You better.” I said, letting go of his hands and wrapping my arms around him tightly.

He grunted in pain but wrapped his own arms around me just as tightly. As much as I wanted to relish in being in his arms, we both knew we had to keep moving.

Cara and Greef had waited back behind me to allow Din and me to have our moment but now they were both walking up to us. She handed the Kid off to IG-11 and handed me my lightsaber that she had picked up off the ground. Then she wrapped an arm around Din to help support him as we began walking. I was hesitant to pull away from him but he couldn’t walk on his own and I wouldn’t be able to support his weight for very long.

“I got you.” She said.

The group began moving once again. I was walking out front, leading the group, and lighting the way with my lightsaber. For the most part, I knew where I was going but now after walking for a few minutes, it was begging to feel like we weren’t getting anywhere. We came up to a cross in the tunnels and I stopped short.

“Do you know which way to go?” Greef asked me stepping up to be right beside me.

I looked around hoping to catch the since of anything familiar, but with no luck. I had no idea where we were in the vast maze of corridors.

“No, I don’t know where we are.” I admitted with a sigh. I took the time that we were standing still to put a hand on my lower back and rubbed it the best I could through the armor, the longer we walked the more it began to hurt.

“What about you, do any of these tunnels look familiar to you?” He asked turning back to face Din.

“No, I don’t know these tunnels. I’ve only entered from the bazaar.” Din said.

The decision was left to me and I took a right turn.

“Well, if we get the smell of sulfur and we follow it, it’ll lead us up to the plains where the river flows.” Greef said as we walked.

“And the Imps will catch us before we make it to the ship. We need the Mandalorians to escort us to safety.” Din said.

I continued leading us, taking the next left turn we came across. I was trying to use the Force to help guide me to where we needed to go but it was all very faint and hard to interpret. I was just as lost as they were.

“Ugh. This place is a maze!” Cara said in frustration.

“Stop.” Din said suddenly, we all turned and looked over at him, “I can stand.” He assured Cara before removing his arms from around her shoulder.

“The bacta infusion is working.” IG-11 commented.

“I’ll try to find some tracks.” he said, turning on his visor.

He looked around, scanning the area.

“That way.” He said, and with that, he took the lead. We all followed closely behind him. He was using the light on his helmet to light the way, and I had reignited my lightsaber to provide some extra light.

“Turn here.” He instructed.

Everything around me was starting to feel a little more familiar. Just as we rounded another corner we saw it. A pile of discarded Mandalorian helmets. Right away I recognized a few from men and women I had known that lived here. Din reached up and turned off his light and turned off my lightsaber and reattached it to my hip as we walked closer.

It felt like a wall had collapsed in on me. I didn’t, no I couldn’t lose any more people today, and I just found out that I had lost so many without even knowing it. Cara, Greef, and IG-11 all stood back for a moment as Din and I approached the pile. Din kneeled down once we were in front of it. I took my own helmet off and held it in one hand down by my side.

“Din, did you know about this?” I asked in a hushed, broken tone.

“No. It must’ve happened after I left with the kid.” He said, picking up one of the helmets in his hands.

“Who-” I took a deep breath before continuing, “Who could have done this?”

“I don’t know.” Din said.

Silence filled the space between the two of us. Cara walked up carefully and laid a hand on my arm.

“We should go.” She advised gently.

Neither I nor Din had the energy to answer her at this moment. All we could manage to do was make an attempt to process just how many clan members were now gone.

“Did you know about this? Is this the work of your bounty hunters?” Din finally snapped, turning slightly over his shoulder to Greef.

“No.” He was quick to answer, “When you left the system and took the prize, the fighting ended and the fighters just melted away. You know how it is. They’re mercenaries. They’re not zealots.” He defended.

I wasn’t sure if I believed Greef. Yes, it sounded like that is probably what happened, but he had lied to us before. How could we be sure that he wasn’t lying to us again?

Din stood quickly and whirled around to face him, “Did you do this? Did you?” He yelled. Din was right up in Greef’s face as he yelled.

“No!” Greef yelled back.

“It was not his fault.” My head snapped in the other direction at the sound of her familiar voice.

I really never thought that I would see or hear her ever again. Din slowly turned around to see her as well.

“We revealed ourselves. We knew what could happen if we left the covert. The Imperials arrived shortly thereafter. This is what resulted.” She said calmly.

“Did anyone survive?” Din asked.

“I hope so. Some may have escaped off-world. Perhaps at one of the safehouses spread across the galaxy.” With her last sentence, she looked directly at me.

I knew she was talking about Avis. It could be used as a temporary safe house if a covert ever needed to relocate.

“We’re heading to one of the safe havens, Avis, you should come with us.” Din quickly offered.

“I will not abandon this place until I have salvaged what remains.” She said as she picked up another helmet, placed it into the floating cart, and pushed it back into the room in which she had come out of moments before.

Din and I shared a split-second glance at one another before he was grabbing my empty hand and led us to follow her. The rest of our group followed in a few paces behind us.

“Show me the one whose safety deemed such destruction.” The armorer requested after she had dropped a chest plate into the smelter and turned to us.

I knew she was talking about the child and Din and I both looked back to the droid still holding the small creature. IG-11 steps forward some.

“This is the one.” Din said.

“This is the one that you hunted, then saved?” She questioned as she looked at the kid.

“Yes. The one that saved me as well.” Din confirmed.

“From the mudhorn?”

“Yes.”

“It looks helpless.” She concluded looking back up to Din.

“He is injured, but not helpless.” Din corrected her conclusion, “He’s...special. He is able to move objects with his mind.” Din added.

She had turned her back to us once again and was tending to the flames some. While she was turned away, Din turned his head ever so slightly to me to confirm that what he was saying was correct and gave him a small nod. It was a very generic way of explaining it, but it got the point across.

“I know of such things.” She commented, “The songs of eons past tell of battles between Mandalore The Great, and an order of sorcerers called Jedi that fought with such powers.”

“He may have the same abilities, but he is not an enemy like they were.” Din said in defense.

“I am aware of this. His kind were enemies, but this individual, and Yn, are not.” She said turning to look at both of us.

“Do you know what he is?” Din asked.

“It is a foundling.” She stated simply, “By Creed, it is in your care and the care of your riduur.”

“We are not-” I trailed off before I could finish my sentence.

“The two of you have not joined as one yet?” She looked over at me for a moment before she continued with what she had been doing.

“No. We haven’t had the chance to because we never had a witness for it.” Din explained.

“I see. I know Yn knows many Mandalorians off-world, why have you not gone to one of them?” She asked, her back still turned to us.

“We were planning on going to Avis, but something always seemed to pop up that prevented us from ever making it even halfway there. That’s how we ended up here actually.” I explained.

“If you wish to be united as one, I may be your witness. It will have to be quick, there is not much time. Do you both know the vows?” She asked.

“Yes.” Din and I said at the same time.

“Good. Stand to face one another. Remove each other’s left shoulder pauldron and hand them to me.” She instructed.

We both did as she said. I stood stunned for a moment as we both took a beat to just take in one another and the whole situation. Less than an hour ago we thought he was going die, and now we stood here officially getting married. I handed my helmet over to Cara for the time being, so I could free up my hands. Without saying a word we both began reaching to remove the small piece of armor off of one another. I had to reach up slightly since he was taller than me. Once both of our left shoulder pauldron were removed we handed them to the armorer.

“Ni Kelir cast solus be these lo a evaar'la shoulder pauldron par te ashi solus tion'ad has worn bic akay jii, bid gar Kelir ratiin ganar a kis'wa be gar riduur ti gar. Now remove the right one.” She spoke the ceremony in Mando’a but the instructions she spoke in basic.

(“I will cast each of these into a new shoulder pauldron for the opposite one who has worn it until now, so you will always have a piece of your spouse with you.” Or quite literally “I shall cast alone of these into but new shoulder pauldron for the other alone who has worn it until now, so you shall always have but piece of you spouse with you”)

We both did as she said and began to remove one another’s right shoulder pauldron. As we did this she had already begun to cast our new shoulder pieces. We both handed her the right one.

“Ni Kelir melt these t'ad kis'wa daab tome bal created a evaar'la shoulder puldron par solus be gar dayn be bic. Ibic signifies te union acyk te t'ad be gar bal ibac gar cuyir jii solus.” She said, placing the pieces of armor into the same smelter together.

(“I shall melt these two pieces down together and created a new shoulder puldron for each of you out of it. This signifies the union between the two of you and that you are now one.” or quite literally “I shall melt these two pieces down together and created but new shoulder puldron for alone of you out of it.  This signifies the union between the two of you and that you are now alone”)

She removed the first piece of armor, Din’s new left shoulder piece, from the flames and quenched it. After cleaning it off quickly she handed it back to me. Then she turned and did the same with mine and handed it to Din.

“You may now present the pieces of armor, Din you shall go first.” She instructed.

He took a deep breath before he began. “Ni dinuir gar ibic beskar'gam at tengaanar ibac Ni Kelir ratiin cuyir ti gar, o'r ra dayn be battle, gar Kelir ratiin ganar a kis'wa be ni.”

(“I give you this armor to signify that I will always be with you, in or out of battle, you will always have a piece of me. ” or quite literally, “I give you this armor to show that I shall always are with you, in or out of battle, you shall always have but part of I”) 

He reached out and secured the new piece onto my left shoulder. His hands were shaking the whole time but he tried not to let it show.

“Yn, now it is your turn.” The armorer said.

“Ni dinuir gar ibic beskar'gam at tengaanar ibac Ni Kelir ratiin cuyir ti gar, o'r ra dayn be battle, gar Kelir ratiin ganar a kis'wa be ni.” I repeated, my voice was still hoarse and the waver in it made the words come out choppy, but I couldn’t care less at the moment.

Then I reached up with equally shaky hands and secured the pauldron to his left shoulder. As I did this, the armor was preparing the second pieces for us. Once again Din went first.

“Din, you may present the second piece now.” The armorer said.

“Ni dinuir gar ibic kis'wa be beskar'gam at tengaanar ibac vi cuyir jii joined tome sa solus.  Gar Kelir ratiin ganar a kis'wa be ni bal a kis'wa be mhi at cabuor gar.” Though I couldn’t see his face, I knew he was smiling and more than likely had tears welling u in his eyes just as I did.

(“I give you this piece of armor to signify that we are now joined together as one. You will always have a part of me and a part of us to protect you.” or literally “I give you this part of armor to show that we are now joined together as one. You will always have a part of me and a part of us to protect you.”)

He carefully put on the piece of armor. Once it was secured he slowly retracted his hands. Then it was my turn.

“Ni dinuir gar ibic kis'wa be beskar'gam at tengaanar ibac vi cuyir jii joined tome sa solus.  Gar Kelir ratiin ganar a kis'wa be ni bal a kis'wa be mhi at cabuor gar.” I repeated the same vows he had just said. Then I did my best to quickly secure it onto his right shoulder, I was ready to officially be Yn Darjin, but my shaking hands made it difficult.

Once it was on we both looked at the Armorer waiting for the next instruction.

“Gar Kelir jii recite te Mando wedding vows, venjii which gar Kelir cuyir tome sa solus.” She said with a nod.

(“Now you shall recite the Mandalorian wedding vows, after which you will be joined together as one.” Or literally, “You shall now recite the Mandalorian wedding vows, after which you will be together as one.”)

Din and I looked back at one another. He reached down with both of his hands to find mine and hold them between the two of us. We both took a deep breath before we spoke together in unison.

“Mhi solus tome, mhi solus dar'tome, mhi me'dinui an, mhi ba'juri verde.”

("We are one when together, we are one when parted, we will share all, we will raise warriors.")

With the last words, his hands slipped out mine to rest against my stomach. He wouldn’t be able to feel it through the armor I wore, but the Bean gave a kick in response.

“Gar cuyir jii solus.” The Armorer concluded the short ceremony.

(“You are now one.”)

“This now means that the foundling is in your care as well, Yn and the child that you carry will take the name Darjin. It also means that helmets may be removed without the braking of the Creed in front of one another and your children.” She explained as she got back to what she had been doing before she paused to conduct our union ceremony.

Din and I both nodded.

“The child is too young to train in the ways of the Mandalorian, it would die. And seeing as it does not seem to age at the same rate as humans do, I can only assume it will be a long after we are all gone before he is at an appropriate age to begin training.” She said.

“What do we do with him then?” Din asked.

“He must be raised with his own kind.” She said simply.

“Where is his own kind?” DIn asked, clearly confused. We didn’t know what species he was, let alone where he came from.

“That is for you to determine.” She answered vaguely.

I couldn’t help but wonder if perhaps she didn’t necessarily mean his own species. She had said earlier that he and I were the same. Could I be considered his own kind?

“Does his own kind mean his species or just others like him?” I asked as she continued to work.

“I do not have the answer to that question, that can only be answered by you. Do you believe you could raise him to begin understanding the abilities you both have?” She asked.

I thought for a moment. If I was to raise the Bean in the ways of the Force there should be no reason I couldn’t do the same for him. I had already begun to show him a couple of things.

“Yes.” I said with a nodded.

“Then, I do believe that he is where he belongs.” She said turning to face us only briefly.

Despite everything that we had gone through I was smiling. I was beyond happy to be married to Din. I knew we didn’t have much time, we would need to go soon, but I wanted to be able to savor this moment for as long as I possibly could.

A/n: okay so a couple of things... ONE: I am so sorry for how long this took me to post, I will try to be better about it for future parts... TWO I just want to address this to clear up anything, I know there are quite a handful of Din x Readers that have a wedding tradition that involves armor, I will admit that I do not know where that concept originated nor if it’s actually even cannon (I don’t think it is though) so what you read here in this fic was my personal take on it, every one that I have read that have used this dose it in there own way, I wanted to do my own take on it vs. copying someone elses so if it is similar to someone elses it’s just coincidence (I hope that is spelt right). Anyways just wanted to clear that up.

Masterlist

Posted on: May 21, 2020

Gif is not mine 

After we took off I stood with Din in the cockpit while we were both watching Zero fly. He may have been a good pilot in the sense that he could operate the ship but in giving warnings to the rest of us he was terrible. If Din hadn’t seen him reaching to jump to hyperspace, I would have definitely fallen hard to the ground. But luckily he saw and quickly grabbed me by the waist and pulled me to his side and held me there as the ship jumped forward.

“Feel free to join the others." Zero said to us.

I looked up at Din and heard him sigh before nodding for us to leave. He went down first and then helped me down. When I got down I saw Burg standing in front of the open weapons cabinet. Din closed it with the panel on his arm.

Then Burg went to touch more panels but Din stopped him once again. Burg growled as he grew angry.

"Hey hey hey hey, I get it, I'm a little particular about my personal space too, let's just do this job, we get in we get out and don't have to see our faces anymore." Mayfeld chimed in.

"Somebody tell me why we even need a Mandalorian?” Burg said stepping up closer to Din.

"Well, apparently they're the greatest warriors in the galaxy. So they say." Mayfeld said from where he sat.

"That's about right." I mumbled as I walked over to also take a seat.

"Then why are they all dead?" Burg asked.

Everyone began to laugh except Din and me, I stood back up ready to give Burg a piece of my mind but Din stopped me.

"Well you flew with him, Xi'an, is he as good as they say?” Mayfeld asking, turning to the Twi’lek beside him

"Ask him about the job on Alzoc III.” was all she said.

"I did what I had to." Din defended. I wasn’t on that mission, I had gotten shot in the leg on the one before it and Din nor Ran would let me go.

"Oh but you liked it. See I know who you really are.” She said chuckling as she pointed he knife at him.

“No you don’t.” I butted in.

“Is that so?” She turned her attention to me.

Before we can argue further Mayfeld stepped in and changed the topic of conversation.

"He never takes off the helmet?" He asked me.

"This is the way." Xi’an mocked the words of the Mandalorians, that sent me over the edge.

"You have no right to say that." Yn snapped at her.

"Neither do you... Any more." She shot back.

"I have more right than you do. Or ever will.” I said.

"I wonder what you look like under there.” Mayfeld said to Din, seeming completely oblivious to my and Xi’an’s argument, “I mean she hid her beauty for so long, you intimidated? Are you Gungan or something? Is that why yousa don't wanna show your face?"

He and his buddies all laugh.

"You ever seen his face?" He asked turning to Xi’an. Just when I thought he might not be a half-bad human being he starts in on the bashing Mandalorians.

"A lady never tells." Xi’an answered suggestively.

I rolled my eyes "Cut the bullshit, she hasn't. Hell I haven't, it's a respect thing, I wouldn't expect her to understand."

Mayfeld was shocked by my statement for only a moment before turning to Din, "Aw come on Mando, We all gotta trust each other, and don't you wanna show her what you look like. I mean it's the least you can do, I mean look what you've done to her already." He points to my stomach with his gun that he had been cleaning.

"Put that thing down." Din said immediately and stepped towards me to shield me slightly.

"Relax, it's safety is on." Mayfeld said rolling his eyes but lowing the weapon.

“So you gonna take it off or what? Or does Burg need to help you?”

Burg stood up and began to make his way over to Din. Once he was there he began to try and remove his helmet.

I quickly stood and stepped out of the way knowing what was bound to happen and sure enough it did. Burg went to grab Din’s helmet, but he caught his wrist before it could reach it. Then a few punches were thrown and Burg ended up being pushed into the small refresher. He tried grabbing the door frame to keep from falling but in the process his hand hit the panel that controlled the door where the child was hidden. The door slid open and reviled the small creature who cooed upon seeing its father.

"Woah what is that?" Mayfeld said. He stood up and walked over to it. "You get lonely up here buddy? Huh?" He asked Din.

Mayfeld was now right in front of the child, I was on pins and needles ready to jump into action if I needed to just in case he went to hurt the kid.

He went to grab him but I was already trying to step up and stop him. He turns to me and Din "Wait a minute. Did you two make that? Huh?"

I rolled my eyes at his question, obviously, we didn't.

"What is it, like a pet or somethin'?" Mayfeld asked.

"Yeah, Sure. Something like that." Din shrugged just trying to get Mayfeld to get away from the kid.

"Didn't take you for the type. Maybe that code of yours has made you soft.” Xi’an butted in.

"Me, I was never really into pets. Yeah I didn't have the temperament. Patience you know? I mean I tried but never worked out. But I'm thinkin' maybe I'll try again with this little fella." He picked him up finally and I was on edge itching to take him out of that man's arms.

He pretended to drop him making both me and Din jump ready to catch him. Xi'an chuckled at us. As does Mayfeld.

"Dropping out of hyperspace, now." Zero called suddenly.

Before anyone could grab onto anything we were jerked as we dropped out of hyperspace and into a normal flying speed.

"Commencing final approach." Zero called out to us once again.

Din ‘s arm found my waist and he had a strong grip on me as the ship moved harshly, making sure I wouldn't fall over and get hurt.

Then suddenly the ship made a harsh turn and everything happened quickly. Din lost his grip on me as we both lost our footing. Mayfeld dropped the kid. Xi'an tripped over herself, Burg smacked his head and fell beside me. All the while, Zero continued to announce what he was doing from the cockpit as if everything was fine.

When the ship finally touched down, Din quickly grabbed the kid and stood up to make sure he was alright. Everyone was slowly getting to their feet after being jostled. Din put the kid back in the cot. Then he turned to help me up. Burg went to stand and as he did I let out a yelp.

Everyone turned to see one of his horns stuck into my upper arm. He grunted at me.

"Calm down bucko, you don't have something stabbing you." I said before gently using my other arm to left it up off the horn. I gritted my teeth in pain as I removed my arm. Din was ready with a rag to apply pressure as soon as it was free.

Din moved me over to the refer’s sink and helped me clean out the gash. He didn’t say a word as he worked. Just by his body language, I could tell that he was mad at himself.

“Din, I’m okay.” I said.

I grabbed his unoccupied hand and placed it onto my stomach, “We both are, I promise. It was an accident, don’t beat yourself up over it.”

His thumb began to make little circles where it was causing me to smile, “I’m sorry.” He said. He was holding a rag to my arm to get the bleeding to stop and he rested his forehead against mine.

"Useless droid didn't even give us a proper countdown." I heard Xi’an say from where she stood in the main part of the ship.

“Can't believe I'm saying it but I agree with Xi'an." I mumbled to Din causing him to sigh out a half-laugh sound.

Once the bleeding was more under control I brushed Din off telling him he had a job to do I could take care of the wound just fine. He left reluctantly and went to open the hatch to get onto the prison ship. He was the last to jump down after I told him good luck.

I went to where we kept the medical supplies and was surprised to find we were out of bacta spray and patches. I made a mental note to tell Din so we can try to get some as soon as we could. Guess I had to go old school and stitch it up myself.

I gathered the supplies I would to stitch myself up and made my way to the table in the kitchen. It was in an odd location so I could really only use one hand and my mouth to hold things as I worked. Finally, though it was stitched up fairly nicely. It wasn’t the prettiest by any means and I would probably have to have Din redo them later, but they would do for now.

I had the com from earlier still as did Din. It was set on the table so I could hear what he was doing. Suddenly I heard blasters firing from his end.

"Din, what's going on?" I asked him.

"Burg shot at a droid, security ones came." Din said, he was not happy. This could have just jeopardized the entire mission.

"Be careful." I said.

"I will."

There was silence from his end and then grunting and rusteling from his end, with occasional blaster going off. He was no doubt fighting the droids that had come. When that all ended all I heard was his breathing I asked, "You get em all?" Smiling to myself.

"Yeah."

"It seems your presence has been detected." I heard Zero say from the cockpit.

"Yeah no shit." I said, rolling my eyes though no one was around to see it.

"Redirecting security alert away from your position." Zero continued to tell the group what he was doing.

"There were only supposed to be droids on this ship." Din said.

"Shit." I whispered to myself.

"Easy... Easy! Nobody had to get hurt here. Just calm down." Din was talking to someone.

I faintly heard some asking what something was.

"It's a tracking beacon." I heard Din answer whoever had asked the question.

Everything was going wrong, and I was sitting here fixing a cut on my arm. There was more talking that I couldn't quite distinguish.

Then I heard Din talking again. "Hey, hey, hey. List to me, okay? Look.... hey put it down........ put it down... what's your name... Davan.....we're not here for you, we're here for a prisoner. If you let us go about our job you can walk away with your life..... You realize what you're gonna bring down on us?.... we're not killing anybody. You understand?.... I can't do that."

I heard a blaster go off and I held my breath waiting to hear Din’s breathing from the coms. Once I did I sighed a little in relief.

"He's dead isn't he? And pressed the beacon?" I asked Din, although I already knew the answer.

"Yeah." Din said.

Zero told them they have 20 minutes. I suddenly felt like something was about to go seriously wrong. I had to go help. Din needed me to.

I wrapped my arm in a bandage, the blood still sleeping through some, then I made sure the kid was stashed and grabbed my weapons. Two blasters on either hip plus the knives two in my hands. I walked over to the ladder and before I climbed down I felt a kick to my left rib.

"Hey bean, if you could not do that right now. We gotta go save your dad's ass, again." I made sure the comlink wasn't on so he wouldn't know I was coming. I had a pretty good idea of where they were, so I followed my instincts.

It felt like I was walking down an endless tunnel of hallways but I knew I was getting closer. I could feel it. I heard a cell door open not too far from me, a couple of halls down.

"Qin" I heard Din say, I tried to pick up my pace some.

"Din get away from the door." I said into the comlink, but then I heard him grunt and it was too late.  

"You deserved this!" Xi’an yelled before running off and I came around the corner from where I had been hiding.

I popped up into one of the small openings on the door, "Need some help?" I quipped.

"What are you doing here?" Din asked it was hard to tell how he felt. It was a mix between relief and frustration, but I am just going to tell myself that it was more relief.

"Rescuing you, it felt like something was going wrong so I stashed the kid and came to find you, and good thing I did." I said.

He came up to the door too. "Your arm, it's still bleeding."

"I'm fine. How do we get you out?" I brushed him off and fried to focus on him.

He sighed "Get one of the security droids over here, one a silver one not the black ones. They can open the door, be careful though they have blasters."

"What you think I don't." I took mine and waved it up for him to see, "I'm on it."

I ran off to find one, it didn't take long. I saw one down the hall and waved my arms above my head when it looked over at me I shot once "Hey metal head, come get me!" It began running and aimed its blaster at me but I ducked back into the other hall before it hit me. I ran past where Din was. "Coming behind me!” I yelled and the rounded the next corner hiding from him and catching my breath.

Man this was harder than I thought it would be. I hear him running then some banging and blaster that make me flinch then finally the sound of a door opening.

Din rounded the corner and saw me leaning against the wall, "You okay?"

I nodded, "Catching my breath... let's go."

"We need to get to the control room." He said after looking me over a nodding to himself as if to confirm that I am in fact oaky.

"Why?"

"I have a plan." was all he said.

He grabbed my hand and we ran off to the control room, luckily not at his full speed. When we got there and he let go of my hand to find the right control, I realized what he was doing. Trapping the others.

"Smart" I commented.

"Thanks."

The lights suddenly went off and came back halfway but in red.

"Alright let's go, stay close." He said and took my hand once again.

I nodded. Din stopped to grab the beacon, I didn't ask questions.

We ran and I could hear hallways closing off.

"You know they'll be after you, probably already split up." I said to him.

"I know, so be ready." He said in a serious tone.

"Way ahead of ya, but one condition..." I said smirking.

"What?"

"I get Xi'an." I said.

"All yours." He agreed.

We split up slightly, Din trying to lure Burg to the control room and me waiting for the ruckus to begin to lure Xi'an closer so I could attack her. The thing with me and her though was we both favored knives. But nobody knew it but I had a trick up my sleeve. If I needed it.

I heard her yell in frustration, showtime.

"Ah, Xi'an." I called. She turned and immediately started throwing blade after blade at me, I dodged each on just barely as if it were magic. Until the last one, I caught that one.

"You done?" I taunted.

She ran and lunged at me but I stopped her, then had her pinned to the ground below me. She tried getting up but she couldn't even lift up her head.

"It's over, Xi'an." I said.

"No! No!" she yelled.

I only nodded. I got ready to deliver a heavy kick to her head to knock her out. We weren’t going to kill them, we weren’t like that. Just turn the tables a little.

"Wait, just tell me this." She stopped me before I could deliver the blow.

I nodded for her to continue.

"Was it nice?" She asked looking at my stomach, she had no clue it wasn't Din's kid, but I wasn't about to tell her that.

"Oh, Xi'an, don't you know, A lady never tells." I mocked her words from earlier. Then in one quick motion I kicked the side of her head. I drug her to the cell and dropped her before closing it.

"Xi'ans down." I said into my comlink to Din.

"I got Burg and Mayfeld. Can you get back to the ship?"

"Yeah. I'll see you there." I said before making my way back to where I had entered the ship.

I ended up meeting up with Din down the corridor that led to the ship. We both just barely caught a glimpse of Qui running to the ship.

"Qin." He called putting before telling me to wait as he stepped around the corner.

"You killed the others." He sounded almost sad.

"They got what they deserved."

Qin snarled and I heard the cock of a blaster and stepped out from around the corner with mine cocked and Din did the same to his.

"It's two against one." We both said at the same time.

"You kill me, you don't get your money." He shrugged "Whatever Ran promised, I'll make sure you get it, and more.... come on guys. Be reasonable." He tosses down his blaster "You were hired to do a job, right? So do it." He held up his wrist to be cuffed. "Isn't that you're code? Aren't you a man of honor?" he asked.

Din sighed and handed his blaster to me and stepped up to cuff him. After he was cuffed, we climbed the ladder up onto the crest. Din went first then Qin and lastly me. When we got onto the ship, Zero was at the door where the kid was stashed, he had a rifle ready to shoot. The panel door was open and just before he shot the poor thing, Din shot the hunk of metal and he collapsed onto the floor.

I watched as the kid lowered his hand and looked at it. I laughed to myself knowing he thought he had done that himself. I wasn't going to break it to him though.

Din shoved the droid out of the ship before closing the hatches and making it up to the cockpit with me in tow. The flight back to Ran was quick.

When we got there Din took off Qin’s cuffs and stood by the ramp door to deliver him to Ran. He ran down and greeted him with a hug.

Din and I followed behind him at a slower pace.

"Where's the others?" Ran asked us.

"No questions asked. that's the policy, right?" Din asked.

"Yeah," he nodded "That is the policy."

"We did the job." I spoke up.

"Yeah, you did." He reaches into his vest and pulled out a small pouch and tossed them to Din who easily fought them.

"Just like the good old days." Din said.

"Yeah. Just like the good old days." Ran agreed.

Din nodded goodbye and turned to walk back onto the ship and I followed after giving Ran a quick hug. "Take care, sweetheart."

"I will." I said and then turned to walk onto the Crest.

We wasted no time getting out there. Just as we were getting away three X-wings passed us. I realized as we were flying back to Ran why Din had grabbed the tracking beacon, to plant it on Ran’s station. While Ran had always been kind to me, he was by no means a nice or good person. He ran illegal operations and lied constantly. It hurt to know that he was going to die, but I knew it was for the best. And then we jumped to hyperspace. The three of us sat in the cockpit as the stars flew passed us. I stood carefully and unscrewed the small silver knob off one of the levers and handed it to the kid to keep him entertained in his chair.

"I told you that was a bad idea." I said to Din crossing my arms over my chest.

“I know, I should have listened to you.” He admitted turning to me. “Let me see your arm, why’d you stitch it?”

I began to unwrap my arm, “We’re out of any form of Bacta, we should try to get some soon. Would you mind restitching it? It’s in an awkward spot and I didn’t get closed very well, and I’m pretty sure it came open when I was getting that droid’s attention.” I said. And sure enough it was opened.

“Yeah, let’s go down to the kitchen so I can use the sink to clean it.” Din said grabbing the kid.

We made out way to the table and soon Din had taken out my poor stitches and redid them and wrapped my arm back up nicely. He made us all some food, the kid was given a bath, Din found us a place to stop for the night, and soon the kid was asleep in his bed.

We were laying in bed, his arm where it always is when we’re laying down together. I let the events of the day replay in my head. Even just thinking about it all, I felt exhausted. Running around trying to avoid people and droids that want to kill you while you’re this pregnant did not mix well.

“Hey Din?” I whispered into the dark. I wasn’t sure if he had fallen asleep yet, he was just as if not more tired than I was.

“Next time something like this happens, I’m not swooping in to save your ass until this baby is out of me, so please don’t get into trouble for at least another 4 months.” I said.

I heard him laugh lightly behind me, “I’ll try my best.” He said before he pressed a kiss to the top of my head. “Good night.”

“Good night.”

The last thing I remember is aiming at Moff Gideon, him aiming at me, him changing his aim last minute and shooting the fuel canister to the E-Web making it explode, getting thrown back, hearing Yn call my name before the world went deafly silent.

When my eyes opened again, I saw Yn and the kid blocking a wall of fire from reaching us, saving us all. I tried to call out to her but I couldn’t and my eyes slipped shut once again.

Everyone says that time slows down when you face disaster, but I guess that’s only if you live through it. The ones that die never get to say how it feels to them. It’s not the same. Nothing slows down. Nothing is there to hold off looking death in the eyes as it smiles down at you evilly knowing you will soon be at its mercy. Everything is moving faster. You know you’re running out of time and yet you can’t do anything to make it slow down.

I couldn’t help but wonder if this is what it felt like for my parents on the day of the attacks. For me it felt like that day lasted weeks. At the thought of my parents, I began to think about anything I could remember of them.

If there is one thing I remember about my mother it was how she always made these borderline insane analogies for things. One stuck out in my mind right now, Dying is like running a two-man race against Death itself.

She would always compare dying to running a race. She said from the moment you’re born, you and death are running the race. Sometimes the race lasts many, many years, and ends when you no longer have the stamina to keep running and death finally catches up to you. Sometimes the death has won the race before you even get a chance to start it. Sometimes you’re running smoothly, then you trip up and fall, and then death gets closer and closer as you try to pick yourself back up and keep running, sometimes he catches up sometimes he doesn’t and the race continues. Other times people end their race and allow death to catch up because they feel as though they aren’t strong enough. Sometimes you forget you're in the race until death is hot on your heels. Some people embrace the race and constantly try to outrun death as long as they can, others simply run their best and accept it when death catches them.

Me, though. I didn’t care much for the race. There had been plenty of times where death was gaining on me but I always managed to pull ahead and re-establish the distance between us. I had fallen into this pattern for so long, I never really thought about what would happen if I was ever unable to put a safe gap between and death. Not until now.

Maybe I subconsciously thought that death wouldn’t come for just yet because of how many races I had helped him win. I had ended so many races for other people. Perhaps death saw me as an ally. But now, knowing that I was leaving Yn, the kid, and our baby behind, I knew that wasn’t true. Death always wins the race, it doesn’t matter how much you think you can outrun him. You can’t. And my race was almost up.

I could feel death gaining on me from behind. I pushed myself to run harder, trying to put as much distance as I could between me and it. For her. I had to see and talk to her one last time.

I forced my eyes open again. The fire was gone. I knew Cara was beside me, the droid and Greef somewhere to my left, but my eyes could only focus on her. She was standing with the kid cradled to her shoulder, despite not being able to see her face under the helmet I somehow knew she was whispering.

“Yn.” Her name slipped out of my mouth without even a single thought to it.

She turned to me. Cara stood and the kid was shoved into her arms as Yn rushed over to me, nearly tripping over her own feet. She dropped to her knees beside me and tore her helmet off tossing it to the side.

“You’re okay, Din, you’re okay.” Her voice was shaking as she tried not to show how scared she was.

Though we both knew I wasn’t okay, this was her way of trying to convince the both of us that I would be fine. She reached forward and her hands found the back of my helmet getting ready to lift it off. But I stopped her.

I could feel the blood coming out of the cuts across my face and the gash on the back of my head. My face was beginning to swell in some places from hitting it against the inside of the helmet when the explosion happened. She didn’t deserve to have her last memory of my face be like this, bruised and bloody. I would much rather her temper the face of the boy she met all those years ago. And the image of me she had created in her mind of what I looked from the hands that roamed my body in the secure blanket of darkness.

I brought her hands down from my helmet. Within the few seconds, she had touched me, her hands became covered in blood. My blood. That’s when it finally hit both of us. I was dying.

“Din, let me do it. I can help you. Let me help you.” She pleaded with me as tears began to make tracks in the dirt and grime that had built up on it from the walk into town and all the smoke in the air from blasters and the fires that burned around us. Even now though, she was beautiful. Broken down as she may be, I still found her to be the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.

“Yn, you can’t. When you did it to Greef, it took you and the Kid, it drained both of you, the kid is already down, you just stopped that fire you would collapse if tried and that would make the rest of you too vulnerable.” I tried to reason with her though I knew she wouldn’t have it. I knew she had the capabilities to save me, but I couldn’t let her do it.

I heard a metal clank and knew that the grate was off without even looking over at it. I could feel death inching closer to me.

“Yn, go with them. You know those tunnels better than I do, they need you. Let me have an honorable death.” I begged her to go.

Truth be told I didn’t want her to go, I didn’t want to die alone here. But I also didn’t want her to have to sit here and watch me go through that. She has already been through so much in her life. She didn’t deserve this. Forcing her to leave me would hurt her and I knew that, but she was strong. But I just knew that her staying here with me as I died would be the one thing to finally break her once and for all. I couldn’t do that to her. There was still so much she was going to do in her life. Her race wasn’t ending, but mine was.

I reached up and under a few layers that blocked me from getting to my necklace. Once I had a grip on it I yanked it off. Before I could even hand it over to her, Yn was shaking her head. She knew exactly what it was and why I was giving it to her. I forced it into her hands and then closed her fingers around it.

“No Din, you’re not dying. I won’t let you. You are not going to die. You can’t die, you can’t! I can’t do this without you. We can’t do this without you.” She began sobbing as she clutched onto my chest. I brought one of my shaking hands to hold onto her back.

It took everything in me not to bend to her wishes. If I let her help me that would leave both of us extremely weak and someone would more than likely have to help us out of here, that would only leave the droid to defend us. From whatever we might face after getting down into the tunnels. It wasn’t worth the risk, one life versus all of ours, it wasn’t even a question for me.

“You can Yn, you’re strong. You can do this, for the Kid and the Bean. I know you can. It’ll be okay. You need to go.” I said gently, I tried to keep my voice as calm and steady as I could but I was shaking all over. I wasn’t sure if it was from fear or from the coldness that was slowly encircling me.

Death inched evermore closer.

I removed my hand from her back and brought it to her shoulder to gently urge her to get up and leave me. It hurt. It hurt more than the damn explosion. But the cry that came from her as I tried to push her way hurt more than anything I had ever experienced, mentally, emotionally, or physically.

“No!” She yelled, clinging to me even tighter. I couldn’t help wincing slightly in pain as her arms pressed into a newly formed bruise.

“There’s still so much you’re supposed to be a part of, Din. We haven’t even discussed names for him. You’re his father, you’re supposed to be involved in all of that.” She said as she continued to hiccup through her sobs.

She was right. There was so much more for us to do before the bean came. Things that we were supposed to do together. Things that we would never get to do. We would never get to discuss our ideas for names. Or put together his bed. I won’t be there to help her through labor like I promised her I would after she woke me up late one night saying that she couldn’t stop thinking about how scared she was for it. I promised her that night that everything would be fine when the time came. I would be right there beside her the whole time. I guess that’s just another promise I made to her that I was now braking.

It wasn’t just her though. It was the kid and the little bean too. There were things I had promised each of them that now I would never be able to give either one of them. I promised the kid that I would protect him until we either found where he belonged or decided that he would stay with me. But now that promise would be broken. I promised the bean that I would love and take care of him no matter what, I promised to give him the childhood that I had ripped away from me. But that too was a hollow promise that will never be for filled.

Death got even closer and I was struggling to breathe now.

“In the cockpit,” I began, “in one of the drawers on the left. There is a list of names I was going to show you-“

“Good. Show me when we get back to the ship then.” She quickly cut me off before I could finish what I was saying.

That’s one thing I have always loved about her she was stubborn as hell when it came to the ones she loved. Even now as lay in front of her dying, she refused to give up on me. It was her fatal flaw.

“Yn, you know-” I drew in a shaky breath, “you know that I won’t make it even halfway.” I could hear my voice getting weaker as I myself was also growing weaker with every moment that passed and every inch of distance I lost between me and death.

“You have to. You’re supposed to be there when he’s born. We were supposed to be a family, Din. You can’t leave now.” She sobbed and hugged onto me even tighter. I was sure her knuckles were stark white with how tightly she gripped the edges of my armor.  

“You’ll have Cara there with you, she’ll help you. I know she will.” I said, slightly turning my head to catch her looking at me. A slight exchange happened between the two of us. One that ensured what I had just told Yn was the truth, that Cara would help her through the rest of the pregnancy and some afterward even if that wasn’t her area of comfort.  

“I don’t want Cara to be there, I want- no, I need you to be there.”

I knew her words were meant with no offense to Cara. While having Cara there with her would be better than being alone, it wasn’t what she promised, it wasn’t what she wanted. She wanted me there for it all, and I couldn’t deliver that one request to her.

“I’m sorry, Yn.” I sighed, my chest was burning with lack of oxygen and I grew dizzy but I tried to fight it off by taking as deep of breaths that I could without wincing in pain.

“What am I even supposed to do without you? The Crest, the kid, everything. Nothing will ever be the same without you, Din.” Her voiced sound so broken and lost. The last and only other time I had heard her sound like this was after we were rescued by the Mandalorians. It sharted my soul into a million tiny shards.

Death got even closer, I could see him in my peripherals.

I was running out of steam in this race and there was still so much I wanted to tell Yn. But other things had to take priority, she had to know what to do once they got out of here.

I took a deep breath. “When you get back to the Crest, you’ll have to override everything into your command. You know all the codes to the weapon’s vault. You know how to fly it. She’s old, we both know that, but if you take care of her like I know you know how to, she’ll last you a long time.” I took another shaky breath, this one was much more shallow than the last one I took.

“Get off this planet, the Crest can’t be tracked. Take the kid to Avis, show him the ways of the Force-sensitive Mandalorians. And when the Bean gets here, do the same with him. Tell him I was his father, that I loved him despite never meeting him and I wished I could have been there. I’m sorry Yn.” Tears fell freely down my face under my helmet. The salt in them caused the cuts on my face to burn.

“No, don’t say that. Please, Din, don’t say that.” Yn begged, still refusing to let go of me.

I sighed and looked over to Cara again, “Cara,” I sighed and nodded to her slightly. I knew she wouldn’t go freely, and I hated that someone was literally having to pull her away from me but it was the only way I knew she would leave with the others and be safe.

Cara stepped up behind her and leaned down whispering, “I’m sorry Yn.”  before she gently grabbed Yn’s arms and carefully pulled her away from me.

“You son of bitch you promised me we’d make it out of this together. You promised me that everything would be okay. You son of bitch, you’re a liar!” Yn yelled down at me with hot tears streaming down her face as Cara pulled her away from me and held her back from being able to run back to me.

Little did she know that under my helmet the same tears were running down my face and I was cursing myself too. I made her feel this way all because I couldn’t keep running my own race and I was now leaving her to run her’s all alone.

I knew she angry at me for letting her save me, but it was for the better. She would be able to continue her own race and watch the kid and the Bean run theirs. I could only hope that I would able to watch them too somehow, and see Yn again in another life.

“Ret'urcye mhi, Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum.” “Goodbye (literally: "Maybe we'll meet again”), I love you.” I said weakly before her and Cara were gone.

I faintly heard their footsteps retreating. Death was stepping on my heels. My race would soon be over. I could feel my breathing get shorter. I looked up at the IG unit that stayed behind.

“Do it.” I said weakly. I was ready to stop running from death. I didn’t want to suffer or have and Imp come in to finish me off. Death by a droid seems to be my best option here given the circumstances.

“Do what?” IG-11 asked.

“Just get it over with. I’d rather you kill me than some Imp.”

“I told you, I am no longer a hunter. I am a nurse droid.” It said back to me.

I couldn’t help but think to myself that Yn would have either laughed rolled her eyes at the irony of a situation like this.

I turned my head more towards him, “Igs are all hunters.” I breathed out shakily.

“Not this one,” He argued back, “I was reprogrammed.”

I couldn’t believe I was spending my few minutes alive arguing with a droid. Block dots began to invade my vision. Death was nearly in step with me. Why he wouldn’t just lap me already was beyond me. It was like he was taunting me at this point. I had already resigned myself to the idea that this was it, why wasn’t he jumping at the opportunity to win yet another race.

“I need to remove your helmet if I am to save you.”

Had he not heard the entire conversation I had just had with Yn. I was dying and I wouldn’t let her remove my helmet. She was the woman I loved. The woman I was to be married to soon and yet I wouldn’t even let her take it off.

IG-11 reached a mechanical hand for the lip of my helmet but I pulled my blaster up and aimed it at him with a shaky grip.

“Try it and I’ll kill you.” I threatened.

He looked down at the blaster and then up at me again.

“It is… forbidden.” I sighed.

“No living thing has seen me without my helmet since I swore the Creed. Not even Yn has.” My shaking was becoming worse, I studdered nearly every other word.

“I am not a living thing.” The droid stated.

He gripped my helmet and began to lift it off of my head. I wasn’t sure if it was me being shocked at his revelation or me truly accepting what he had just said, but I didn’t stop him. He could now see my face, and yet no Creed had been broken because he was a droid. It was a life-saving loophole.

Maybe, just maybe all the promises I had made to my little family won’t be broken after all. Maybe I could still hold true to all of them.

“This is a bacta spray. It will heal you in a matter of hours.” He began spraying it onto my cuts its all too familiar burning sensation stung for just a moment as it met the raw skin of my wounds.

“You have suffered damage to your central processing unit.” He continued.

I gave him a confused, slightly dazed look, “You mean my brain?”

“That was a joke. It is meant to put you at ease.”

Stifled what sounded like a pitiful excuse of a laugh. I took a deep breath and groaned slightly as I tried to relax a little to let the bacta kick in.

It was only now that I realized Death had fallen behind once again and the distance between us was growing with every second. I was going to live. This whole time I had accepted my fate, but now I was getting a second chance. Only minutes ago death was stepping on my heels trying to get me to fall so he could run past me, but now he was far behind me as if he had never been close to me.

At the realization that I was in fact going to be there for my family, tears began to fall. All the emotions I was trying to hide from Yn for her sake all came to the surface as I let the tears fall down my face, I began to hiccup sightly through the tears as my nose became stopped up and it grew harder to breathe.

I used the back of my gloved hand to wipe my face off before turning to IG-11.

“Hand me my helmet. If we leave now, we can catch up to the others.” I said already pushing myself forward to sit up more.

“You should rest a little longer.” He suggested.

“No, I have to get to Yn. I made her a promise and I intend to keep it.” I said.

He handed me the helmet and I carefully put it on, then he helped me stand and get through the grate. It was pitch black in the tunnels and the only sound was the distant echo of water dripping. I turned on my visor, to see if their heat signatures were still lingering. Down one tunnel I saw three pairs of footprints leading away from us. It was them.

“That way.” I said pointing in the direction that the footprints lead.

I was still a little shaky on my legs, but I was getting to Yn one way or another. We began walking. The only thought in my head was of my family. We were still one, and we were going to get of here alive and together.

(I love that he’s holding a pillow as a stand-in for baby yoda)

“So how much did we get from Ran?” I asked Din as we ate breakfast together while the kid was still asleep.

“Not enough, I’m going to need to pick up at least two or three more decent jobs before the bean comes so I won’t have to leave you alone with both of them alone.” He said.

I only nodded. Bounty hunting could bring plenty of money when you are only supporting yourself and sometimes another person, especially if they are bounty hunting too and bringing in their own money. But add a kid and a newborn baby into the mix, the credits just don’t last as long as they once did.

“Any ideas on where to pick one up?” Din asked me.

I thought for a moment, “There’s that one lady who always tried to sell us Spice? I mean she always paid well, never asked any questions. It’s worth contacting her. She was always fond of you.” I said teasingly.

She was an older lady and was constantly flirting with any male employer she had. It was always quite amusing to watch.

“I could what’s her name again?” Din said as he stood to put our plates in the sink.

“Mel. I’ll keep thinking of others who you might be able to ask.” I said.

I heard him walk back over to the table to grab his helmet. “I’m going to turn the light back on.” He warned me.

After my eyes adjusted to the lights, I got up and went to get the kid up. While I was in the kitchen feeding the kid breakfast, Din went up into the cockpit to try and contact Mel. The kid ate his breakfast and was ready to go play the second he was done.

“You need to wait kiddo, your dad’s trying to contact someone.” I told him as I gently stroked one of his large ears.

I listened and waited for Din to finish the transmission. Once I was sure he was done I called out to him, “Hey can you come grab the kid so we can both come up?” I asked, for his help since it was now very difficult to climb the ladder and carry the kid. It wasn’t impossible just hard and if he’s here there no harm in asking for a little bit of help.

“Yeah, be right there.” He called back.

Once we were all back up in the cockpit, the kid went straight to his play corner causing me to smile.

“So, what’d she say?” I asked as I took a seat.

“She said she has a few small jobs and their mine if I want them I just have to let her know within three hours. Did you think of anyone else I could ask?”

“What about Trak or Dra? Are you still on good terms with either of them?” I asked.

“Trak, yes, I actually did a job for him a few months before I found you. Dra depends on how much that ship cost him to fix. A mission went wrong and a group of us had to jump ship and it crashed. It wasn’t my fault but we were working together so we all got blamed. You know how that always goes.” He said and I nodded in agreeance.

“It’s worth contacting them though.” I said.

He agreed and began to make a transmission to Dra first. Unfortunately he was still very upset with the last time Din did a job for him so even if he had a job, there was no way he was giving it to DIn.

Luckily he had more luck with Trak. He welcomed Din back to do a few easy jobs that he promised would pay well, nothing illegal, just a simple scout mission, and possibly a transport. Both of us always liked working for Track, especially after we had just finished up on a job that had either ended sloppily or was slightly illegal because he always had everything planned out to a tee. He was an older gentleman, constantly smoking a cigar, he used to do these missions on his own but he had gotten too old to keep doing them so he started hiring others to do them, that’s how Din and I met him.

“So Trak doesn’t need me there for another couple of days, I could go and do the odd jobs for Mel then head to Trak’s, or just skip Mel’s all together and go straight to Trak. His jobs would pay more than enough to get us through until after the baby is born.” Din said.

“Honestly, I wouldn’t bother with Mel’s. Her jobs are usually a little sketchy, I trust Trak more. He’s not going to scam us.” I said truthfully.

“Alright. Well, he doesn’t need me for a couple of days, but we can’t stay here. I saw some ships flying in while talking to Mel, I’m pretty sure they were carrying Imps in. I’ll try to find us somewhere to stop soon so I can make a supply run.” Din said, already working on firing up the ship.

I got up and carefully bent down to get the kid and put him into his seat while we took off. I would let him back down once we were safely cruising through space.

“You two ready?” Din asked once the ship was ready to take off.

“Let me finish strapping him in and sit down.” I said as I worked on making sure the kid was secure in his seat.

Soon we were flying through hyperspace. Din was sifting through a datapad trying to find a place to stop to refuel and go on the supply run.

“What about Tatooine? I know we were there just a while ago, but we could stop there for a bit.” Din suggested. I didn’t even need to see his face to know he had a smug look on it.

“Din, I will not hesitate to throw my data pad at you right now.” I said not even looking up from the pregnancy article I was reading.

“I’m kidding. We’re already heading for a planet that we can refuel on, it’s actually quite the opposite of Tatooine. We’re heading to Barin, it’s about 12 hours away, then from there it’s probably about another 6 in hyperspace to get to Traks. I figured depending on what time of day it is when we land, if it’s during the day, I can head out to one of the markets, and we can leave out that next morning or if it’s late when we get there I head out first thing in the morning and we could leave before night time.” Din said.

“I think that’s a great plan.” I agreed.

“Can you make sure the kid has an extra blanket tonight when he goes to bed, were getting to colder space and I don’t want him to get sick.” Din said, causing a small, soft smile to form on my lips at his concern.

“Are there still extras in the cabinet by the table?” I asked.

“There should be.” He said finally switching to autopilot and turning his chair to face mine as I set my holopad down.

“How’s your arm feeling?” He asked.

“It’s okay, a little sore but it’s fine. We should probably change the wrapping on it later.” I said.

“Okay, then once we get some bacta I can put that on it and it’ll heal quicker.” He offered.

I nodded, but my attention was soon caught by the kid making noise beside me. He was reaching out to Din and making grabby hands trying to tell him that he wanted to be held. I turned back to Din smiling.

“I think somebody wants their dad to hold them.” Teased with a small laugh.

“Alright, come to Papa.”

Din happily got up from his chair and took two long strides over to where the kid was. He picked up into his arms. I smiled and chuckled a little at the name he had given himself.

Once the child was in his arms he turned to look at me, “What’s so funny?” He asked.

“Nothing, Papa.” I said teasingly.

I could only imagine the blush he had creeping up onto his face as he paused for a moment, “Oh, that… I don’t really know where that came from.” He admitted before walking back over to sit down.

“I like it, it suits you. But why not dad or something like that?” I asked.

He was quiet for a moment, “It’s what I called my dad…”

“Well then I definitely like it, it’s really sweet.” I said.

“What about you, have you thought about what you’re going to be called?” He asked, wanting the attention off of him.

“Yes, it’s just I never felt like they were me, ya know. Like I can’t picture my baby coming up to me and calling me mommy. It just doesn’t seem right. But now I believe that if a kid has a Papa, then they’re going to need a Mama.” I said smiling widely at him.

“What do you think, kid? What do you think about Mama and Papa?” Din asked, looking down at the small green creature in his lap.

The child looked over at me and then up at Din as if he was making sure he understood who was Mama and who was Papa. After looking up at Din, he too began to smile widely at his, now appropriately named, Papa.

“I’m going to take that as yes.” Din said. I could practically hear his smile.

We continued to make small talk until my stomach grumbled fairly loudly, causing Din to laugh loudly.

“You hungry?” He asked through his laughter.

“Maybe a little.” I said, slightly embarrassed.

“I can stay with the kid up here if you want to make some food.” He suggested.

“Hold up. You must have forgotten, I won our bet. You have to cook.” I heard him playfully groan, “So, how about I stay here with the kid and you go make us some food.” I had a shit-eating grin on my face.

“Okay, okay, fair is fair. Have fun up here. The ship should be fine the coordinates are set, holler for me if something goes off on the panel.” He said standing up and handling the kid to me as he walked past.

Before he got to the ladder I heard him mumble, “You will be the death of me.”

“Oh, but you love me and you know it.” I called back as he decided into the main part of the ship.

“That I do.” I heard him say to himself just before he was out of earshot.

I couldn’t help the smile in my face as I thought to myself, “I love you too.”

NOT MY GIF 

I was sitting in the cockpit, reading to the kid while Din was outside fixing something on the landing gear. He had been meaning to fix it for some time, but it just was never a good time or place to do it. We were always either on the run or not somewhere safe, but here it was almost like we had no worries. But unfortunately, our time here was coming to an end here soon. We would stay for one more night, then tomorrow, we were set to fly to one of the medical facilities in the capital city so I could get a check-up. I was both excited and nervous.

I closed the book after finishing the chapter we were on and looked at the kid. “Do you have any idea that you’re going to be a big brother in a few months?” I asked him.

He cooed back, “I thought so.” I said laughing.

“Your dad has started to call your little brother or sister Bean, can you believe that? Despite his hard exterior, he’s a big softy you know. You and I have got him wrapped around our fingers. If you ask me, I’d say the two of us really lucked out with being here with him.” I said and gently stroked his ear, causing him to giggle.

I heard Din come back into the ship. Soon he was up in the cockpit with me and the kid.

“What are you two up to?” He asked, taking a seat in his chair.

“We just finished our chapter.” I said, pointing to the book.

“You know you could use the datapad to read to him, instead of actual books?” Din asked.

“Yes, I am fully aware of that, I just like the real deal better.” I said.

He shook his head. “You were talking when I came inside, what were you two having such an in-depth conversation about?”

“The Bean and you, who else?” I said, adding emphasis on the new nickname for the baby.

“Or really?”

“Yup,” I said popping the p at the end, “I was asking him if he knew that he’d be a big brother soon and if he knew how lucky we were to have you.”

“No, I think I’m the lucky one.” He said and rolled my eyes smiling.

This was somewhat new, we used to casually flirt with one another, but since being here on this planet everything has seemed to have taken on a much more serious tone, even when it was super cliche like it was right now.

“Did you get the landing gear fixed?” I asked.

“Yeah. There should be no more bumpy landings from now on.” He said.

I laughed hard at this, “Don’t blame faulty gear for your rough landings sir. You could have the smoothest gear in the galaxy and still land roughly.” I said.

“That is not true, and you know it. I am way better at landing the Crest than you are.” He said. I laughed even hard.

“Din, stop! I’m dying!” I continued to laugh.

“It’s true!” He argued back.

The kid was utterly confused by our playful banter. His wide eyes kept shifting from Din to me.

“Let me fly to the medical facility tomorrow and you’ll see. I can fly this better than you can, even after being out of practice for so long.” I said.

“You know what, you’re on. Loser cooks dinner for a week.” He said, holding his hand out for me to shake.

“Deal.” I said and grabbed his hand shaking it. “But, since that bet isn’t until tomorrow, and it’s your turn to cook diner, I suggest you get your butt into that kitchen.”

He shook his head and I could hear him laughing. He stood and began to make his way out of the cockpit. I stood as well, I had laundry drying out on some clothing lines that Din had set up for me right outside the ship that I needed to get. But before he was out of my range, I gave his butt a playful smack.

He stopped dead in his tracks and turned around to me, but my back was already to him as I was grabbing the child to take him with me.

“Did, you really just slap my ass?” He asked.

“Hey! Little ears!” I scolded him, “And if I did, what are you going to do about it?” I asked, smirking.

“Oh, you’ll see.” He said turning back around and descending the ladder. I followed him down, and met him where he was waiting to assist me if I needed it on my way down. I gave him what I hoped was a playful and flirty wink and not a wink that looked like I had something in my eye, before walking off.

It didn’t take long to collect the clothes from outside. Once I was back inside with a crate full of clean clothes, I went over to our drawers to begin putting them away. The door to the kitchenette was shut so I assumed Din had taken his helmet off to cook. But then I heard him speaking to someone. I didn’t want to be nosey, but my curiosity got the better of me.

“Why would you need me specifically?” I heard him ask.

I figured he was talking about being asked to do a job, but I wasn’t sure who it would be for. He had probably picked up hundreds of random jobs on his own. Any of the people that have hired him could have been contacting him now.

“Okay. I am in the Unknown Regions at the moment, but I won’t be able to leave until tomorrow. Send me the coordinates.” He said.

There was a muffled voice from whomever he was speaking with.

“It is none of your business, Ran, I have something I need to take care of here, then I’ll head for your station. You said the mission wouldn’t be for another few days, I’ll get there before it happens.”

The muffled voice returned.

“Send me the coordinates.” Din said.

Then silence ensued. I returned to folding and putting away the clothes when I heard the door slide open again.

“Dinner's ready, you can come feed the kid.” He said. “I need to go take care of something up in the cockpit, then I’ll come eat with you afterward.”

“Okay, is everything alright?” I asked, he seemed tense all of a sudden.

“Yeah, we can talk about it while we eat.” He said before making his way to the ladder.

I said nothing else as I walked into the kitchen to get the kid fed. Within no time, he was asleep in his cradle.

I sat at the table waiting for Din to come down. When he finally did, he seemed even tenser. I stood to make our plates, while he got us some water.

I set the plates down and he sat down with the waters as I stepped over to the door to close it and shut off the light. I heard him remove his helmet. Then I slid into my seat across from him.

“So, Ran called you to do a job?” I asked before taking a bite of feed.

“You heard?”

“Yeah.”

“He wants me there tomorrow, but you were going to go to the medical facility to get the bean checked up on. So I told him I would take the job, but I couldn’t leave until tomorrow. I didn’t tell him why I couldn’t leave now, just that I had something to take care of, which isn’t far from the truth. You, the kid, and the Bean come first right now.” He said.

“I appreciate it, but you didn’t have to. Is he reducing your pay at all for being late?” I asked.

“No, he didn’t even tell me how much it was, I only get paid if it goes well. It’s just a rescue mission from what I understand.”

I hummed in response.

“He asked about you, always does when he contacts me for a job. I didn’t tell him you were here with me. I wasn’t sure if you would want him to know.” He said as we both continued to eat.

“I don’t know how I feel about that yet. I’ll decide before we get there.” I said.

After we were finished eating, we decided to tag-team washing dishes. I washed them and Din dried them and put them away.

“So, do you know what’s going to happen at the appointment tomorrow?” He asked suddenly. I was sure it was partly from genuine curiosity and trying to fill the silence.

“I’d imagine some routine doctor visit things like weight, blood pressure, maybe even some bloodwork, which will be oh so fun,” I sarcastically said, rolling my eyes, “But as for things pertaining to the Bean, they’ll probably check it’s heartbeat, hopefully, we can get a scan, and maybe even find out if it’s a boy or girl.”

“Do you want to know what it is, or do you want to be surprised?” He asked, reaching up to put the last plate away.

“I don’t know yet. On one hand I want to wait a little bit longer, but on the other hand I don’t know when I’ll be able to get to a doctor again.” I said, shaking my hands to get the water off.

“Maybe you could ask the doctor to write it down, and put it in an envelope. That way you have it and can open it when you want to.” He suggested, using the towel to dry his hands.

“That’s not a bad idea.” I commented, I went to go sit back at the table but I felt something hit my butt.

I turned around to see Din holding the towel, only now it was twisted up. He had used it to smack me in the butt.

“Okay, I deserve that for earlier.” I said laughing lightly and shaking my head.

“Yeah you did, and I told you I’d get you back…” he laughed some as well before he said, “it’s late, we should probably get to bed. Your appointment is early.” Din said, draping the towel over the edge of the sink.

“You’re right. Hopefully, I can be in out quickly and get back before the kid wakes up, so I can grab a few extra minutes of sleep when I get home.” I said. I had become comfortable with the fact that, at least for now, the Razor Crest was home.

“You mean we.” Din said quietly as we both grabbed our clothes to change for bed.

“What?” I asked, slipping my shirt off.

“You didn’t think I was letting you go alone.” He said. He was waiting for me to get changed so I could get in bed and he’d be able to remove his armor and helmet to change and shut off all the lights before getting in with me.

“What about the kid? And are you really just going to stand there and watch me change?” I asked teasingly.

“My eyes are closed under here.” He quipped.

“Yeah sure.” I mumbled, then I continued to get ready for bed by taking off the pants I had been wearing and putting on a pair of sleep shorts as I said, “But seriously, what about the kid? Will he be safe here alone?”

“He’ll be fine. He shouldn’t wake up before we’re back, I’ll lock up everything, set all the security measures and I was going to put a comlink on his cradle so I could hear him. I’ll be able to hear and see everything, don’t worry.” He reassured.

“I’ll try not to.” I said getting into bed and waiting for him.

The lights turned off and I heard the familiar sound of armor being removed. Only now it brought a much different feeling than it had before. It used to make me feel appreciative of the fact that it was coming off for me to get some rest after doing a hard job, but now it signified Din coming to bed with me. It made me realize that he was comfortable with being vulnerable around me. It made me feel loved.

I felt him slip in behind me. His hand went right to where it always does, on the lower side of my stomach.

“Woah, someone’s up late.” His normal voice brought a smile to my face as he mentioned how active the baby was at the moment.

“Yeah, they’ve been moving around since about halfway through dinner.” I said, bringing my hand to join his, right beside it.

“Well, they better settle down. They’ve got a big day starting early.” He said. He began to rub his thumb in light circles. And as if it were magical, the baby began to settle.

“How do you do that?” I asked.

“Well as you like to say, magic.” He teased.

I did say that quite often, and I couldn’t help but laugh a little.

“Good night Din.” I said, snuggling my head into the pillow.

“Good night, Yn. Good night Bean.” I heard him say. He gently pulled me a little closer to him. And I felt his lips press against the back of my head just briefly, but nonetheless it brought a smile to my face.  

It was very early the next morning when Din began gently shaking me awake. He was already up, showered, and had his armor on.

“Get up and go get in the shower, I’m going to go get the ship ready to fly us to the medical facility. It shouldn’t take more than thirty minutes, so be quick. And quite, the kid’s still asleep.” He said from where he stood at the foot of the bed.

I groaned slightly as I opened my eyes and stretched a little. “Not even a good morning?” I mumbled, sitting up.

“Good morning, now start getting ready.” He said shaking his head slightly at me.

“Good morning to you too. I’ll shower and get dressed then meet you up in the cockpit, don’t forget I’m flying us today.” I reminded him as I got out of bed.

I went to the small refresher after grabbing my clothes and began to get into the shower. Din was making sure everything was secure before we took off and was going to get the ship ready and warmed up, it got colder than usual here at night.

Once I was done, I threw my fair up into a bun, so it wouldn’t be dripping water on my back, then I made my way up to the cockpit where Din was waiting for me.

“Everything ready?” I asked.

“Yes, did you eat something?” He asked. He stood from the pilot's seat.

“No, I was trying to hurry so we wouldn’t be late.” I said walking over to sit down.

“Here,” he said, handing a piece of fruit he had gotten from the kitchen, “You sure you want to fly?”

“Yup,” I said, taking the fruit and biting into it, “Sit down and let’s go.”

The flight went super well and the landing was like butter. The smoothest landing we had had since Din had taken me in.

“And you said that you were better than I was at landing the Crest.” I said after shutting down the ship.

“Yeah, yeah. You just got lucky.” Din grumbled.

“So, what will we be having for dinner this week?” I asked as we made our way to the ladder.

We were both silent as we crept through the hull of the ship and over to the door. Din checked on the kid one last time before he came over and opened the hatch. I held my breath as the door slightly creaked, but thankfully the kid stayed asleep.

The facility had a docking area for patients that were locked and monitored, so I felt fairly okay with leaving the kid there. We were told that no one would be let into the docking pod that our ship was in until we got back.

I was grateful to find that there weren’t that many people near the main entrance. We followed the signs that lead to where we needed to go. When we got there, there were a few other women there with their partners. Me and Did did draw some attention. It wasn’t every day that you see a Mandalorian, especially one traveling with a pregnant woman.

We went to the little desk to check-in. There was an older lady, her hair beginning to grey, sitting behind the desk with a holopad in her hand. She welcomed us with a warm smile.

“Hello, you two, what brings you in today?” She asked.

“Check up for me, and our Bean.” I said smiling, placing a hand on my stomach.

She laughed at the little nickname. “Ah, of course, what’s the name it’s under?” She asked.

“Yn.” I said.

“Last name?”

I didn’t know what to say, I was still a wanted person if she put my name in the system there would be a bounty hunter here for me within the hour.

“Djarin, Yn Djarin. Sorry, we’re newly married, she's still getting used to her new last name.” Din said, coming to my rescue while simultaneously shocking me.

Had he really just said I was his wife? Granted it was a lie, probably made up on the spot but still, it made me smile even wider.

“Ah, yes, here she is. You’re actually the first patient of the day, these other ladies just got here early for theirs, the nurse should be out in just a minute. Feel free to take a seat while you wait.” She said.

I nodded, and before I could even move, Din’s hand slipped into mine and he gently led me over to a seat far away from the others waiting.

It wasn’t long before a nurse called for a “Yn Djarin.” And we stood, still hand in hand as we followed her to a small room.

“Alright so I’m just going to go through what the doctor will be doing today, as well as running a few small tests to check a few things and ask you some questions. Is that alright?” She asked.

“Of course.” I said from where I sat.

“Okay so, once the doctor gets here, she will be doing a scan, so you will be able to see your baby and hear it’s heartbeat. You’re around five months so I’m assuming you know the gender if you wanted to find out what it was before having the baby. If you are looking to be surprised just tell the doctor beforehand so she doesn’t accidentally ruin the surprise. She may do some blood work or additional tests if she sees anything that is of concern.” She said as she took my blood pressure. I nodded along as she spoke.

“So when was the last time you had an appointment?” She asked.

I was embarrassed to admit it. “It was actually right after I found out that I was pregnant.” I said.

“Oh, wow.” She was clearly shocked at how long it’s been.

“It’s just hard sometimes to keep track of the days when you’re always moving from planet to planet, spending a lot of time in hyperspeed.” I said in an attempt to defend myself, even though I had no real reason to.

The nurse nodded, “Yeah, it happens to a lot of women, but I will tell you as it gets closer to when the baby is due, you need to try and keep a better track of the time.” She said, taking off the blood pressure cuff, “Well your blood pressure looks good. If you could come with me real quick, we need to get your weight.”

I nodded and got up to follow her to the other side of the room.

“So why are you always traveling, is it part of your job?” She asked.

“Yeah, we’re transporters.” Din said from where he was standing by the table.

“Oh that’s a relief, I was honestly you’d say something like smugglers or bounty hunters, that’s a lot more dangerous than transporters. I think it goes without saying that you shouldn’t be doing any heavy lifting.” She said as we walked back and I took a seat back on the table.

“Don’t worry, I don’t let her do anything that puts either of them at risk. She’s stubborn though.” Din said, jokingly causing the nurse to laugh.

“Well keep it up, just a few more months.” She joked back.

We both laughed.

“Okay, I’m going to get everything put into our system when you leave be sure to get a copy of it so you can bring it with you next time you go to a medical facility. The doctor will be in shortly.” She said before leaving the room.

“Din?” I whispered just loud enough for him to hear.

“Yeah?”

“Can I hold your hand? I’m nervous.” I asked. I knew it sounded childish but I needed this right now.

“Of course,” he took my hand into his gloved one, “but why are you nervous?”

“What if something’s wrong with the baby because I waited so long to see a doctor.” Deep down I knew that the baby was fine, if it wasn’t I would’ve felt it, but my brain wouldn’t accept that thought.

“Yn, I’m sure the baby is fine. And if for some reason it’s not, I’m here for you, whatever you need. I promise.” He said squeezing my hand.

The doctor came in just as he finished talking.

“Hello Mrs.Djarin, Mr.Djarin.” She greeted with a smile causing some of my nerves to dwindle. “So my nurse notified me that it's been a while since you’ve seen a doctor. I’m sure everything is fine with both mom and baby, but if you’re okay with it I’d like to do some blood work. It won’t take long. The tests would be done by this evening, but if you have to be off-planet before then they can be sent to you on a holopad. Is that alright with you?”

I looked at Din just long enough for him to nod at me. “Yes, that’s fine. Will we also get a scan today?” I asked.

“Yes. Well take care of everything for the bloodwork and send it to the lab then the two of you can see your baby.” She said.

I smiled when she called it “our baby” it made me almost giddy to think of Din and me having a baby together. I guess in a way we were, but we had yet to put a label on us.

The doctor stepped out for a moment and came back with everything she needed to draw some blood. I held Din’s hand the whole time and didn’t look when the needle went in. Then once she was done she left once again to hand it off to one of the lab workers and to bring in the ultrasound machine.

“Okay so just lay back and lift your shirt up please. You may need to fold your leggings down as well.”

I did as she said. My hand was shaking with both excitement and nerves, Din squeezed my shaking hand to try and calm me some.

“Okay this may be a bit cold.” She said before putting the gel on my stomach I flinched slightly but it wasn’t nearly as bad as the first time I had this done.

She moved the probe around for a moment before peeking out from behind the monitor. “So I am assuming you don’t know the sex of the baby yet?”

“No, not yet.” I said.

“Would you like to?” She smiled.

I looked to Din, “It’s up to you.” He said gently.

I thought about it for a moment before deciding to go with what he had suggested the night before.

“Would it be possible for you to write it down somewhere and seal it up so we can open it when we’re ready?” I asked.

“Of course. I’ll do that once we’re finished. Are you ready to see your baby?” She asked.

I nodded vigorously. She turned the monitor and there it was. Then she pressed a few buttons and its heartbeat could be heard through the monitor's speakers.

“I’ll give you two a moment.” She said, handing me a wipe to clean off my stomach. She left the heartbeat playing and the image up on the monitor.

“Wow, it doesn’t look like a bean anymore.” Din said, his voice sounded more airy than usual.

“Are you okay Din? Are you crying?” I asked wiping some of my own tears they built up in my eyes.

“No, you know you can’t cry under these things.” He jokingly lied.

“It’s just… I guess it just really hit me that there’s a baby in there. It’s kind of crazy.” He said. I hadn’t even noticed he took off one of his gloves until his now bare hand was on my stomach. It was much warmer than the gel, which I appreciated.

I used my free hand to rest on top of his. “Thank you.” I had said it to him before but I felt as though I could never say it enough to him.

Before he got the chance to say anything the doctor came back in.

“Okay so here’s your scans, an envelope with the gender inside and see the front desk to give a proper holopad address so you can be sent a recording of the heartbeat and the results from the bloodwork.” She said.

Din took the things from her as I fixed my shirt. We both thanked her on the way out. In the hall my hand found its way back into Din’s. He took care of all the holopad information and then we were off.

Nothing was said on our walk back to the ship, it was a comfortable silence. When we got back we were surprised to find the kid still asleep. I yawned seeing him peacefully asleep.

After closing the kid’s pod Din turned to me, “We need to start heading to Ran’s. Why don’t you go get a little bit more sleep and I’ll get the ship into hyperspeed.” He suggested.

“Don’t need to tell me twice.” I said, I let go of his hand reluctantly and went to sit on the edge of the bed to slip my shoes off.

But before I could even sit down Din grabbed my arm and spun me around. I didn’t get a chance to ask him what he was doing. His head dipped down and he rested his forehead against mine. A Keldabe kiss.

It wasn’t a real kiss, but a Mandalorian form of kissing, and it held on the emotions any other kids would have. My eyes even fluttered shut. We stood there for what felt like forever, but it wasn’t long enough.

It was amazing, but it still left me confused as to why he had done it. He still was holding onto me gently by the arm.

“Din?” I whispered.

“Ssshhh…Yn, I love you. It’s been obvious for so long, but I guess it took everything that just happened for me to say it. I love you, and I have since we were kids.”’ He confessed.

My eyes went wide. I used to hope that he felt the same, and these last months proved that he did, but hearing him say it was so a lot more different than knowing it.

“Din, I love you too, and I have for so long.” I said. I heard him let out a breath of air he had been holding in.

He wrapped his arms around me and held me for a moment. Then when he let go, he looked down at me.

“Get some rest, you and the Bean deserve it since you had to get up so early. I’ll get the ship up and going.” He said.

“Okay.” I whispered.

He slowly let go and then turned to go up to the cockpit as I began climbing onto the bed. I couldn’t help the smile on my face as I allowed myself to slowly fall back asleep for a little while.

I hope you enjoyed this part!!!

While we were waiting for the ship to refuel, Din brought up the idea of going to pick up Cara and someone named Kuiil to help up on Navarro. My answers to him were short responses like “Okay,” “Sure,” and “Alright.”

It was actually a good plan, it was well thought out, but I wasn’t in the mood to talk to him right now. He got his time to vent when he was angry, and I’ll get mine when we get back on the ship and head to Sorgon.

“I’m flying to Sorgon.” I announced as we walked back on.

“I can do it.” He offered kindly, too kindly for me at the moment.

“That’s great Din, so can I and I will, you can stay down here with the kid.” I sassed already removing the pieces of armor I had on.

“I’m going to take this off, put it in the crate, and then I don’t really care what you do with it.” I said going to the kitchen where the crate still sat.

I took off the remaining pieces and haphazardly tossed them in. I should have been more careful with them but I just wanted it off right now.

Once I was done I walked out and went straight to the cockpit to warm the ship up to get her ready to take off.

Within no time we were cruising through hyperspace. The blue hue of space filled the cockpit. I turned to the side and saw it sitting there. The helmet.

If only he knew that my Creed wasn’t the same. There was a special group of Mandalorians that were force users. We have our own secret clan and we all take a different creed than the rest of the Mandalorians. The beginning of it is the same but ours is slightly longer.

“Strength is Life: for the strong have the right to rule. Honor is Life: for with no honor, one may as well be dead. Loyalty is Life: for without one’s clan, one has no purpose. Death is Life: one should die as they have lived. Force is Life: For it connects all things living and dead and we shall live on within it. Balance is Life: For it is us who maintain the balance. This is the way.”

The Force-sensitive Mandalorians have been around just as long as the Mandalorian culture has. They were granted special protection under Mandalore The Great, despite his conflicts with the Jedi Order. He saw them as a potential secret weapon. They lived amongst all the other Mandalorians, and no one ever questioned it. When the Jedi and Mandalorian war began, they were seen as saviors by many and traders by others. Nonetheless, they still lived beside one another with only a little conflict between the two groups. At least until the Pacific era began. The lead Elder of the time saw what was to become of Mandalore, he knew it would destroy what they had built for the Force-sensitive Mandalorians so he made the decision to scatter the ones left across the galaxy. They were to remove their armor and live like regular citizens, make a life for themselves that gave no indication that they were Mandalorians, or that they could use the Force. If they had children they would be raised to know the ways of the Mandalorian and needed to be prepared to jump back into it at the drop of a pen.

And they were. When the great purge happened they were all called to return to a secret base where the Elders had remained. They came together, regrouped, and decided to distribute themselves across the different clans that were establishing themselves across the galaxy as both an extra form of protection and to help guide any foundlings who are Force-sensitive.

They helped train them in the ways of the Force and taught them the history of being the ones that came before them. Once they take the Creed they are taken to the planet, Avis to meet the Elders and become a member of the Clan. There they are given a place of shelter and a place where they can remove their helmets without possibly breaking their Creed.

We saw the rules surrounding the helmets differently than everyone else does. We are allowed to remove them in the presence of other members of Clan Genet because we see one another like family. If there is ever a time when our helmet is removed in front of some else, then it is up to a council of Elders to decide if we broke our Creed.

I had yet to get the chance to stand before them. That’s actually where I was trying to go when Din found me. There was still a possibility that I was still a Mandalorian but I wouldn’t know until I gave my testimony before them.

I knew I had to tell Din about all of this, but I was scared of how he’d react. He is very passionate about the Creed and how important it is to him and finding out that there’s a group of us who live by a different one might not go over well with him. I couldn’t lose him again.

It had maybe been thirty minutes when I heard him outside the door to the cockpit. I pressed a button to my right and the door slid open. He walked in quietly.

“I’m sorry, Yn.” He sighed, even through his helmet I could tell his voice sounded broken.

“It’s fine, Din.” I said gently.

I knew I had had enough time sulking over it and it was time to forgive one another.

“No, it’s not. I was way out of line with what I said, I took it too far. I can only imagine how hard all of this is for you, and I just had to go and make it even worse. I know you didn’t choose to leave, and I just threw it back in your face like an asshole. I’m so sorry.” I heard him sniffle once he was finished speaking.

I stood and turned around to face him.

“It’s okay Din. I shouldn’t have said what I did about The Way, either. We were both in the wrong. I’m sorry.” I reached out for him and pulling him into a hug.

He did not hesitate to wrap his strong arms around me and hold me as close as he possibly could.

“Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum, cyar'ika.” He whispered. (I love you, darling)

We both were fluent in Mando’a, but rarely spoke in it since both of our original tongues were Galactic Basic. The rare moments that we did were special, it was almost always during a moment of intense feelings and the words were always filled with emotion.

I looked up at him and smiled, “Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum sa pirusti.” (I love you as well)

I rested my head onto the cool metal of his chest plate that he had yet to take off. We stood there for a few moments just enjoying being back in each other’s arms. I felt a sudden boost of courage and turned back up to look at him.

“Din, I need to tell you something, something very important.” I admitted with a shaky tone.

“Hhm?” He hummed in question.

“I-”

I was cut off by the alarm on the dash going off signaling we needed to drop out of hyperspace.

“Can it wait? I didn’t realize how close we were to Sorgon already.” He said.

“Yeah, yeah. That’s fine.” I brushed it off, “Do you want to go down and make sure the kid is good to drop out of hyperspace. I can get us landed.” I offered.

“Okay. I’ll be back once we’ve dropped before we land.” He promised before hesitantly letting me go and turning to leave the cockpit.

I went back to the pilot’s seat and sat down. I waited a minute to make sure DIn had enough time to get to the kid and make sure he was secured.

“Are you two good, am I safe to drop?” I hollered down to him.

“Yes, we are both ready.” He hollered back.

“Okay, dropping in three, two, dropping now.” I announced.

I had learned a trick years ago, where if you have the ship going at a certain speed when coming out of hyperspace, it won’t jerk as bad. If you got perfectly it wouldn’t jerk at all. I did it and the jump out was as smooth as glass.

“And that’s how it’s done.” I whispered smugly to myself.

“Yn? Are you going to make the jump out?” Din called up to me.

“I did already. Come on up.” I hollered.

I heard him grumble something like, “How the hell does she do that?” As he climbed back up with the kid.

He took a seat behind me, “No matter how many times I’ve tried to, I can never make the jumps as smooth as you can. How do you do it?”

“Practice and patience, you really have to feel for the sweet spot in the engines. You’ll learn one of these days.” I joked as the ship flew through the upper atmosphere of the planet.

“Do you know where we need to go?” I asked as we got closer to the surface.

“I should have saved the coordinates of where we landed last time in the ship's data.” He said getting up to look at the dash.

He pressed a few buttons, “There, just follow the path on there.” He noded down to the screen.

Within ten minutes we had landed. I found a small pouch and dropped the credits in them for Cara before handing it over to Din.

“Hey, what were you going to tell me earlier?” He asked just as he was about to walk out.

“It can wait. Go find Cara, me and the kid will stay here.” I said as the ramp dropped.

“Are you sure?” He asked looking down at me as I held the kid in one of my arms.

I nodded, looking up at him. He lightly grabbed one of my upper arms and pulled me slightly closer to rest the top of his helmet on my forehead causing me to smile slightly.

“I’ll be back soon.” He promised before straightening back up.

“Hopefully with some backup.” I added while the kid and I watched him walk down the ramp.

“Hopefully.” He agreed from where he stood at the bottom looking back up at us.

“Wave bye-bye  to your poppa.” I said to the kid trying to get him to wave. He raised his hand a little and did his best to wave it.

Din waved back before turning and walking away to find our old friend. I walked over to the panel on the wall and closed the ramp.

“Hey, buddy, I want to show you something.” I looked down at him briefly as I walked us over to the drawer that held my lightsaber.

Maybe I could practice telling him before telling Din. I took out the wooden box and opened it.

“You see this little guy? This is called a lightsaber. Others that are like us, use them. My dad gave me this one when I was little. Maybe one day, when you’re older, you’ll have one of your own too. You know, there are others just like us all across the galaxy. I know quite a few in fact. Hopefully one day you’ll get to meet them. Perhaps they know where you’re from.” I mused, gently running the back of my knuckle across the top of his ear.

I told him more about the lightsaber and my past, leaving out the darker parts of it.

Eventually, I set the lightsaber down out of the way and placed the now empty box down in front of me and the kid. Very carefully I shifted from sitting back on my knees to all the way down on the ground.

“So I heard that you lifted up a Mudhorn. Those things are really big, this box is nothing compared to one of those things. Here, watch me first, then I want you to try it.” I explained to him. I knew he could understand more than it seemed he would be able to.

Closing my eyes, I took a few deep breaths, and slowly the box began to lift up off the ground a few inches. I carefully set it back down.

“Okay, your turn bud.” I looked down at the kid who was now sitting beside me.

He looked up at me confused. “Close your eyes.” I instructed calmly.

He slowly closed his big, bright eyes.

“Good now try to lift the box, just like you did the Mudhorn.” I coaxed.

It took a few moments but the box lifted up off the ground. He held it there for a couple of seconds before dropping it roughly onto the ground. His eyes piped open and he looked up at me scared from the loud clatter.

“It’s okay, good job. You’re small but strong, little one. You are going to have to learn how to use the Force better, but don’t worry I’ll be here to show you the way. I promise.” I said and picked him up to give him a kiss onto the top of his head.

“Now let’s put this away before your poppa gets back.” I said and reached for the lightsaber to put it away.

It was perfect timing too because the ramp was losing signaling Din’s return. He came walking up the ramp with Cara in tow. Once he was in front of where I sat he looked down at me.

“What are you doing on the ground?” He asked. I could only imagine the amused smile he had on under the helmet.

“I was playing with the kid. But seeing as you are back, mind giving me a hand up?” I asked, reaching a hand up to him.

“What would you do without me?” He teased quietly as he helped me up.

I went over to Cara, “So he roped you in to helping?” I asked, smirking.

“Yeah, the credits really helped tilt the scales.” She joked.

“We appreciate it.” I said truthfully.

“Don’t mention it, I think Mando needs some extra back up since his normal partner in crime is taking a break, I would hope at least.” She said, eyeing my stomach.

“Well, you know I got passed six months and decided that was enough. Now I just stay here with the kid.” I joked.

“Six months?” She asked incredulously.

I only shrugged.

“Yeah, she’s stubborn.” Din interjected causing Cara to laugh.

“Yeah, I had gathered that much from the last time you were here.” She joked.

“It doesn’t take long for you to find that out about me.” I shrugged.

We all shared a small laugh before I turned to look at Din.

“Hey, why don’t you go punch in the coordinates to Kuiil’s, and I’ll get us there while you go over the plan for when we get to Navarro?” I suggested.

“Are you sure, you flew all the way here to Sorgon? I can do it while you rest, you’ll need to before we get to Navarro.” Din said, concerned.

“Yes, Din, I’ll be fine.” I reassured.

He reluctantly turned and went up to the cockpit to put in the coordinates, leaving Cara and me alone.

“Why did you fly to Sorgon?” Cara asked me.

“We had a bit of an argument.” I admitted.

“Oh, about what?” She wasn’t being nosey, more just concerned for her friends.

“We both just got a bit too hot-headed and we said some things to one another that we shouldn’t have. It started with me accidentally leaving the main engines on overnight while we were on world, it drained some fuel and the closest refuel stop was a sketchy moon. Din was pissed about it, and we had one small blowout. He ended up locking himself up in the cockpit until we got there to cool off. Then when we went to refuel he revealed to me that he had armor made for me in case we ever needed it. He didn’t give me the helmet though, which prompted another argument. It was my turn to cool off so I took over the cockpit.” I explained.

“Oh, is everything alright now?” She asked confused after seeing us interact as if nothing had happened just a few moments ago.

“Yeah, we’ve always been pretty quick to forgive one another after blowouts like this.”

“Good, that would have put a huge damper on this mission.” She joked, causing me to let out a light laugh.

“Yeah, I’m glad it’s past us.” I said. My gaze shifted downwards, a habit I had when I would tell a small lie. When I realized that I had done it I snapped my eyes back up to Cara and swallowed nervously.

I was relieved to see that she wasn’t even looking in my direction, she was looking around the ship. I sighed. The only thing on my mind was how I still hadn’t told Din, he’s given me plenty of opportunities to but I keep brushing it off.

Before I could spiral once again into my self-destructive thoughts, Din came back.

“Everything is set. Are you sure you don’t want me to fly?” He asked.

I only nodded.

“Okay, if you want to switch off in a little bit, just let me know.” He offered, grabbing my hand and giving it a light squeeze.

“I will.” I cringed at how small my voice sounded.

He stood behind me, making sure I got up the ladder okay. Once I was up in the cockpit, I sat down and took some deep breaths. This was not the time to start freaking out.

I shook my head and tried to regain my focus on the task at hand, getting to Kuiil’s. Din had started the engine already and we were ready to take off.

“We’re about to lift off.” I hollered down to them.

The engines thrusted a few times and we were up off the ground and rising above the treeline. Once we were a safe distance above them I began to fly forward and lifted the ship up through Sorgon’s atmosphere.

I continued flying, leaving the peaceful planet behind. Finally, we were far enough to make the jump.

“Making the jump to hyperspace, hold onto something.” I advised. I could make a smooth transition out but in was much harder.

I double-checked that we were on the right course still and then switched to autopilot. I slouched back in my chair trying to relax some. I lifted my hand and closed the door to the cockpit without leaving my seat. No matter how much I tried not to think about it, the thoughts of how Din would react consumed my mind. None of them were pleasant reactions.

I was on a downward spiral into self-destructive thoughts with no way to stop. I knew these thoughts would eat away at me until I told him, but the fear of telling was eating away at me too.

I spent a decent amount of time replaying different scenarios over and over and over again in my mind. A knock on the wall outside the cockpit finally pulled me out of the pit I dug myself.

“Yn, can I come in?” It was Din.

I stood up and walked over to the door, pressed a few buttons and it slid open.

“I thought you weren’t mad at me anymore?” He asked. I could tell he was hurt.

“I’m not.” I tried to sound as genuine as possible because I really wasn’t mad at him.

“Then what are you stressed about? You only ever lock yourself up here if you’re mad or stressed. If you’re not mad, you’re stressed.” He inquired.

He was right. Sometimes I hated how well he knew me.

All I could do was stare at him blankly as if he wasn’t even there. I was zoning out and shutting down. The only thing that could be heard was the hum of the ship's engine and my steady breathing.

“Yn? Are you still with me?” He asked.

Nothing. My mind was yelling at me to say something, anything. No words came out, I just continued to look right through him. It was like my body froze in time while the rest of me was completely aware of everything and wanted to react but my body wouldn’t cooperate.

He reached for my hand and gently took it in his.

“Is this okay, Yn?” He asked.

I still couldn’t form any words, but somehow I managed to nod my head yes. He continued to hold onto my hand, running his thumb over my knuckles. We stayed silent for a moment and I could feel the concern radiating off of him.

“Is this about what you needed to tell me?” He asked carefully.

I nodded slowly once again.

“Are you- are you nervous to tell me?” Although I couldn’t see them, I could feel his eyes boring into my own.

I took a deep breath and slowly nodded once. I felt all the feeling in my body returning as I began to hyperventilate.

“K'olar, bic's jate.” He whispered, opening his arms for me. (Come here, it's okay.)

I stepped forward and rested my head against his chest as he wrapped his arms around me.

“Cyar'ika, bic's jate. Ni liser ke'pare. Bic cuyir not a ori koor.” He whispered. (Darling, it's okay.  I can wait.  It is not a big deal.)

“Ni’m ceta.” I said looking up at him. (I’m sorry)

He shook his head. “Please don’t be, it’s okay. It can wait, it’s not worth you stressing yourself out over. I promise.”

Once again I could only bring myself to nod at his words.

“You’ve been up for nearly twenty hours, why do we get you something to eat and then go to bed?” He asked.

“Okay.” I said weakly, becoming hyper-aware just of how tired I was.

He tapped a few buttons on his wrist guard, syncing it up with the dash so he would be alerted of anything going wrong. Then we went down to the kitchen. Cara had already eaten and had gone to bed in the spare cot that used to be mine before Din and I started sharing. The Kid was also fast asleep in his pod.

Din had made diner, he really just reheated some stew I had made a few days ago that I made way too much of. But I wasn’t complaining. Once I was done, he helped me change out of the clothes I was wearing and into one of his old shirts then into bed.

We had been laying in silence for some time in the same position that we always do. I was sure he had fallen asleep, but none the less I began to talk to him.

“Din, I promise that I’ll tell you everything soon. I’m just not ready yet.” I whispered not wanting to wake him.

I was surprised when I felt a kiss being placed on my shoulder. “Take your time, cyar'ika, I will wait as long as you need me to. Take your time.”

I took his hand off of my stomach just long enough to press a kiss to his knuckles before returning it to where it had been.

“Vor entye, din.  Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum.” I said. (Thank you, Din. I love you.)

“Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum sa pirusti, Yn.  Jii slanar at nuhoy.” He whispered back. (I love you too, Yn.  Now get some sleep.)

I felt his thumb rubbing small circles where his hand was and slowly began to feel myself drifting off to sleep. I knew I had to tell him soon, and I would, but I just needed to take it slow and do it on my own time when I was ready.

A/n: I really hope the whole history of the force sensative Mandalorians made sense. THat was like my 5th take on it. I was struggling to come up with something that made some sense while still conecting into what is cannon with out changing it a whole bunch. 

A/N number two: I just wanted to say sorry for how long this one took me to write. I’ll be honest I didn’t have my meds for a few days, and being off them makes it very hard and tiring to focuss on something so I had to put writing on the back burner for a few days. So I’m just really sorry for how much time it took me to get this one up. I already have the next few all planed and mapped out mentally all I have to do is get it into writing. THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!

Also this part is completely in Din’s point of view. 

Tag list is open 

GIf is not mine 

Din’s PoV 

We arrived on Barin just as the sun was going down, I made us some dinner and then we all went to sleep. The frigid air of the planet had already crept its way into the ship by the time we went to bed.

Yn gave the kid two extra blankets in his pod and put an extra quilt on our shared bed. I had no idea where that one had come from but I was grateful for it by the time we were drifting off to sleep. She had insisted on wearing shorts once again along with one of my long sleeve shirts, but I wasn’t complaining about her sleep attire one bit. For one she looked perfect in it, wearing my shirt just seemed so right on her. But her bare legs being exposed to the coldness made her subconsciously scoot closer to me in her sleep and I welcomed it wholeheartedly.

I hated it when the morning came back around. She was still fast asleep beside me. One of her hands was under her face and her other arm was by her side, lazily draped over my own arm that was in its spot so my hand was on her stomach where it always is when we sleep. I wanted to stay in this moment forever. It was perfect, but I knew that if I was going to get in and out of the market place quickly I had to get moving.

I pressed a featherlight kiss to the back of Yn’s head before I carefully snaked my arm out from under hers minding the bandaged wound on it and then slowly got off the bed so I didn’t wake her.

As I was getting ready to leave, the kid woke up. I knew he wouldn’t go back to sleep and I wanted Yn to get as much sleep as she could right now, she needed it. So I decided it wouldn’t hurt to take him with me.

I left a note for Yn, in case she woke up. Then I wrapped a warm blanket around the kid before we headed out. The market was about two miles out so it wouldn’t take long to get there.

Once I was there I made quick work on finding some of the food supplies we were low on as well as a few odds and ends that Yn had offhandedly mentioned she’d been craving.

As I passed a smaller shop I noticed they had some books displayed in the back. I knew that Yn had recently finished the one she had. I decided to pop in real quick to see if they had anything that Yn may like. After looking at a few I found one that seemed to be right up her alley. As I was walking back to the front to pay with the kid and book in my arms, he made a small squealing sound and wriggled one of his hands out of the blanket and made grabby hands for something. I followed my eyes to where he was reaching, and of course, it was a toy.

To my left was a stuffed frog that was nearly the size of him. I knew if I bought it I would never hear the end of it from Yn who I’ve told many times that the kid doesn’t need every toy he wanted. But I figured one more wouldn’t harm anything. I stepped closer and grabbed the frog then handed it to him and he quickly snuggled right up to it.

Just as I was about to walk off another small stuffed animal caught my eye. It was a simple brown teddy bear. Though simple, I knew it was perfect for the bean. I couldn’t resist grabbing it before heading to the counter. I knew we were trying to make the credits stretch but a few extra spent on the children wouldn’t hurt anything.

When I finally got to a store that had medical supplies I quickly located bacta spray and patches.

“How can I help you?” A short man with a potbelly sauntered up to me.

“I need some bacta spray and patches.”

“I’ll get them for you and meet you at the counter.” He said.

I nodded a thanks and began walking back to the counter. When he got there he set the two items on the counter as I dug out the credits.

“You know what, since you’re getting both, I’ll do a two for one special.” He offered.

I thanked him and then he smirked, “It’s the least I can do, trust me you’ll need it.”

The way he said it made shivers run down my spine. I left the store and began the short journey back to the ship docking area. The whole time I was on edge. What had the storekeeper meant that I’d need the bacta?

I convinced myself that it was because he assumed I was a bounty hunter and he knew it was a dangerous job. I was almost completely satisfied with that conclusion. But there was still a part of me that felt like he knew something I didn’t. Was there going to be someone at our dock waiting for me to return so he could take the kid? Is there an attack planned for once we leave the planet? Had something happened to Yn and the bean?

The moment those thoughts crossed my mind I picked up my pace and ran the rest of the way to bay four where the Crest was sitting. When I got there the ramp was opened. I knew I had closed it when I left. I ran up it, I found that the kid’s pod was flipped over on its side. The door to mine and Yn bed was closed as well as the doorway to the kitchen. I hoped that maybe Yn had just opened the ramp to let some fresh air in and the pod had somehow gotten hit and flipped over, but I knew that was wishful thinking.

I knew that someone had broken into the ship. I hoped that they had only been looking for the kid and upon not finishing him simply left and Yn was fine. But I knew that those chances were slim. Any reputable bounty hunter at this point knew that both the kid and Yn were traveling with me, so if they were going for one, they were going for both.

The bags containing the items I had gotten on the supply run had been dropped at the mouth of the ramp, the only thing left in my arms was the kid who was still clinging to his stuffed toy. I walked over to the door to mine and Yn bed. Best case scenario she was still asleep, worst-case scenario… I didn’t want to admit what the worst-case scenario could be. Regardless though, I tucked the kid towards my chest and made sure he wouldn’t be able to see anything just in case.

It felt like it took the door ages to slide open, but once it was open I found that Yn wasn’t there. I couldn’t decide if that was a relief that she wasn’t there dead or that she wasn’t there at all. I put the kid on the cot and told him I’d be right back. I tried to keep my voice level and void of worry through the modulator, I didn’t want to scare him. I shit the panel to the bed and walked over to the one that led to the kitchen.

Before the door slid open I heard a painful whimper come from the other side.

“Hello, Yn?” I called out trying to get the door to open, my shaking hands made this simple task much more difficult.

"Din?... Co-Come to the kitchen, some-something's wrong." I heard Yn cry out.

“I’m coming!” I said just as the door began to slide open.

As soon as it was wide enough for me to slide in through sideways I was already coming through. My eyes scanned the room. The first thing I saw was a bloody handprint on the wall beside the door. Then my eyes fell onto her.

She was on her knees trying to reach up to the small sink to pull herself up from where she was on the floor. Blood was pooling below her. The baby.

"Din, I don't want to lose our baby." She cried.

I froze in fear to where I stood like an idiot at her crying on the floor. It took another whimper of pain from her to snap me out of it.

Within a second I was on my knees beside her, holding her in my arms.

"Yn, you're not going to lose the baby. Everything's going to be fine. We need to get you to a hospital. Okay? Everything's going to be okay. I promise." I said as tears were falling from my eyes under my helmet.

Her breathing was becoming more jagged as she kept losing blood.

"He did it." She mumbled, putting a hand on her stomach.

The shirt she had been wearing, my shirt, was soaked in blood. There was so much of it that I couldn’t even see where the blood was actually coming from. It had caused the fabric of the shirt to stick to her stomach and to itself so I couldn’t even see if there was a cut on the shirt that would indicate where she was bleeding out from.

"Who did what?" I asked. Obviously she had been attacked but I didn’t know how she was injured only that it was bad.

"Bounty hunter," she said, grabbing blindly for the hem of her shirt. When she finally grabbed it she pulled it up revealing a gash across her stomach. It was a horrific sight, one that would haunt my dreams forever. It hurt to even realize it but there was no way that the baby would be okay. My hand was shaking as I grabbed on to hers that was also shaking and gently helped her pull her shirt back down. I kept her hand with mine as I gently placed it on her stomach. I knew there was no way to apply enough pressure on it to stop the bleeding without causing her a lot more pain. So I made sure that it was resting there as lightly as it could so I wouldn’t hurt her.

I couldn’t even speak. The only sounds that could be heard were her labored breathing and both of our cries.

I looked at her face and saw that her eyes were beginning to gloss over some. I was losing her.

"Where's the kid?" She asked, voice shaking and breathy.

“He’s on our bed, with the door closed.” I said, my voice cracking through the modulator as more tears fell down my face.

“Good,” she sighed in relief but grimaced in pain just as quickly, “He’s still here. The bounty hunter. Go get the kid. Protect him.” Her sentence came out one short breath at a time.

“Yn, I can’t leave you here.” I tried to reason. I knew that if I left her it would mean two things. One it would mean that I was accepting that she was going to die, and although I knew it was coming, I wasn’t ready to fully accept that. It also meant that she’d be alone, and I couldn’t do that. She had always been so kind to those who deserved it. She always helped others. She was the perfect person in my eyes and she did not deserve to die alone.

“Din, please. We both know that I’m not going to make it. I’m going to bleed to death right here. Me and the baby are going to die. But that kid out there is still alive. Protect him… please.” She begged me, reaching her other hand over to mine which I instantly grabbed and held onto as if it would keep her from dying.

“Okay, but one condition…” I said. This isn’t how I wanted it to happen.

“Okay.” She breathed out and nodded slightly.

“Marry me.” I said.

“What?”

“Please. Right now, we can just say the vows and we’ll be married.” I begged.

She nodded. We both recited the Mandalorian wedding vows, her voice getting weaker with each word.

As soon as the last syllable of as said, I ripped my helmet off and tossed it aside. My lips were gently on hers. Her lips were perfect. Her hand came shakingly to the side of my face and mine carefully held the back of her head. I savored every moment of this short kiss knowing that I would never be able to do it again. It was perfect. It was soft. It was full of love.

When she pulled away she had a weak and sad smile on her lips. I was sure my face was mirroring the same look.

"I love you." She breathed out before going limp.

“I love you too.” My voice cracked as all my pent up emotions broke free and I cried into the crook of her neck as I held her in my arms.

I was sure I could feel my heart shattering. I sat there for a while until I heard something coming up the ramp. I gently set her body down off my lap and got up. When I got to the main part of the ship I saw him. The bounty hunter that killed Yn.

“I see you found the little gift in the kitchen. She wouldn’t give up the location of the kid, and since her bounty is ‘dead or alive’ I decided dead it is.” He said with a smug look of satisfaction on his face.

My fist whipped that look right off his face. I had him pinned under my body weight. I didn’t even bother with my blaster as rage and grief flooded my mind. I just continued to deliver blow after blow to his face with my hands. Even after I heard the snap of his neck breaking I kept throwing punches at his lifeless face.

When my adrenaline finally ran out, he was nothing more than an unidentifiable mass on the floor. I pushed myself off of him and slumped against the wall.

I yanked both of my gloves off my hands. They were ruined by being stained with both Yn’s and the bounty hunter’s blood. I buried my face into my hands and sobbed. I hadn’t cried this hard since losing my parents. I remember knowing the moment my father shut the doors that I was alone. I felt the same way that I felt back then as I do right now. Completely and utterly alone with no idea how to continue on from here. I haad the Mandalorians to save me back then but who could save me now? It felt like I was back to being a small and scared young boy who had just lost everything.

I’m not sure how long I sat there crying into my hands. I wasn’t even sure how I had that many tears.

Eventually, everything around me began to fade as I became completely numb to everything. I couldn’t even process the cries of the kid from behind the door.

Soon there was nothing to the world around me except blackness.

I’m so sorry about this one... IT IS NOT THE LAST PART, THERE IS MORE TO COME I PROMISE!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you enjoy!!! 

Posted on: April 10th 2020

The tag list IS open so if you want to know when the next part comes out let me know!! 

not my gif 

I had already picked up and dropped off the other bounty's I had. It's been about a week and I still didn't know what to do about the girl. She still hasn't told me her name, which I can respect. Mandalorians don't share personal information like that. She may not be one anymore but I can understand that she is still holding onto the customs that she can.

I also still couldn't shake the familiarity that she gave off. It consumed most of my thoughts over the past few days. The way she talks to the kid, I've seen it before. Speaking of the kid, he really likes her. I caught her the other day showing him how she can do the weird hand thing too. He seemed really excited about it.

"Hey, Mando?" Her voice pulled me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah?" I asked from the pilot's seat, not looking in her direction. I was trying to find a secluded planet that we could use to lay low for a while. I had a run-in with a few bounty hunters looking for the kid.

"When are you dropping me off? You've just dropped off your last bounty..."

I didn't have to look at her to see her anxiety. I could hear it in her voice. I sighed but stayed quiet.

"I don't know..." I said after a moment of silence, I sighed again. I knew I had made my decision a few nights ago when I heard her having a nightmare. It was late and after she had woken up she had moved from her cot to the cockpit and eventually fell asleep there. I found her there the next morning. I felt the urge to check on her when I heard her get up but I didn't want to overstep and make her uncomfortable. She told me what had happened the next morning, it was about the guy who got her pregnant. I'd be lying to myself if I said I didn't want to see him pay for what he did to her.

"I don't think I'm going to drop you off." I said.

"What?" She asked quickly, clearly shocked.

"You don't deserve to be forced to go back to that man. I can't let you." I said. Just the thought of her going back made me feel an odd sensation in my gut. It made it twist and contort into knots.

"I don't have anywhere to go though..." she said quietly as if she was speaking to herself.

"Stay." I said simply. With my voice modulator, it made it sound much harsher than I meant to, I hoped she could understand that it wasn't meant to be harsh. She used to wear one too so she may be used to how certain tones get masked.

"I couldn't. I wouldn't want to be a burden. You already have the child to support." She insisted.

"You wouldn't be. The kid likes you. Plus you and I both know that if you didn't stay you won't be able to fight off the other bounty hunters that are going to be after you for much longer." At this point the ship was on autopilot and I was turned around to face her.

She placed a hand on her stomach. "You sure we won't be a bother?" She asked.

"I'm positive." I said with a short nod.

She smiled, "Thank you, Mando."

I decided that in that moment if she was going to be staying, that she deserved to know my real name, even if I didn't know hers yet.

"My name is Din. Din Djaren." I said, she smiled once again.

"Thank you Din." She said, I smiled under my helmet bowing my head slightly. Hearing her say my name brought a feeling of peace over me.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner but... my name is Yn." She said after taking an audible deep breath.

My head snapped up at her name. "Yn?" I said standing up.

She nodded and stood as well, I could see tears brimming her eyes.

"I'm sorry, I should have told you sooner. But I didn't want it to affect your bounty. If you don't want me to stay anymore, I understand." She said trying to keep her tears from falling.

"Please don't cry." I said swiftly taking one of her hands in mine as sh eused her other one to wipe away her tears. 

She sniffled and tried to regain control of her breathing. "Now you know why I never came back." She said, wiping her eyes again.

"You could have found me, they probably would have let you back in if you explained what had happened." I said.

"I was ashamed. I allowed someone else to break my creed because I failed." She said.

I hated hearing her talk down about herself.

"No, don't ever say that. It wasn't your fault. It was that bastard's fault." I said harshness evident even with the modulator.

"I've missed you, Din." She said looking up at me giving me a sad smile. She was looking right into my eyes whether she knew it or not.

"I've missed you too, Yn." I said, screwing my eyes shut to stop my own tears.

Yn was one of the first people I met after the Mandalorians took me in. She had been rescued from another planet that had also been attacked and was being trained as well. We were the closest thing each other had to a friend. She was only a little bit younger than I was. After we had both taken the creed, we agreed to work together whenever we could. We were a great duo honestly. We worked so naturally together. That was years ago though. We began picking up solo missions more often and drifted apart. We'd still see each other every now and then just passing in the tunnels, but I hadn't seen her since before I found the kid. It's been probably about 5-6 years since we've actually gone on a mission together.

I knew I had feelings for her back then, but because of our line of work I didn't say anything about them. I didn't know they were still there. Seeing her without her helmet for the first time since we both took the creed and put them on, I was blown away. She was so beautiful. We were still very much kids when we took the creed, but now I was looking at a woman, a beautiful woman that I still loved.

A beeping from the console brought me out of my memories.

"We will be at the planet we're staying at soon." I said.

"Okay." She said softly with a nod.

I went back to my seat as she did the same and prepared to land.

"So why Sorgan?" She asked as we approached the planet.

"Well, it has no starport, no industrial centers and no population density. Making it perfect for all three of us to lie low for a while." I said, continuing to fly us closer.

Yn had brought the kid had come in a little bit ago and was now in my lap, making it a bit hard to steer since he insisted on wanting to touch everything.

"Hey kid, if you keep touching everything you're going to have to go sit back in the bunks." I said to him and he just stared up at me and reached out to touch something else.

"Don't." I warned, he continued to reach for the switch.

"Don't test it." Just as the words left my mouth he flipped the switch, I quickly flipped it back and heard laughter coming from behind me.

"Would you like some help with him?" I heard Yn ask through her light laughter.

"What?" I asked not quite understanding what she meant by help.

"I can hold him in my lap while you find us somewhere to land." She said, already standing from her seat.

"Um, yeah that would be helpful." I said moving my arm so she could pick up the kid. He looked up at me questioningly.

"It's okay, she's nice. Most of the time." I joked. We had always had an easygoing atmosphere around us when we worked, and seemed to come back naturally. 

The kid seemed to be convinced because he reached up to her and she picked him up.

"It's not like your dad's a ray of sunshine all the time." She said to the kid.

"Did you really just call me his dad?" I asked as I continued to land the ship.

"Yes, I've been here long enough to conclude that you are indeed his dad." She said matter of factly.

I was quiet for a moment while I finally put the ship down on the ground. Once we were completely stopped I turned to face her.

"Well if I'm his dad, and you're going to be staying with us, you're going to have to become his mom." I shot back at her.

"That's not fair." She said.

"Why not?"

"Because I'm already going to be a mom, and besides I'd never want to do that to you. Replace you as his favorite parent." She teased.

As much as I wanted to tell her it would be fair, I couldn't. I knew that if she needed me to and gave me the chance I would be more than willing to be a father for her baby. Even if we hadn’t seen each other in years, I still loved her. And even though I just found out it was her, I already found myself thinking about loving her baby.

"You wouldn't be his favorite." I said shaking my head, both to add emphasis on what I had said and to clear my head. I had no clue if she would ever feel the same way about me.

"Oh yeah? Give it a week, you'll see." She said, smirking.

She couldn't see it but I was smiling. This is how our missions used to go. Just the two of us shooting back smart remarks. I've missed it more than I realized.

"Alright I'm going to go have a look around. Find someplace to stay, I'll be back. You two stay here. And don't let the kid touch anything." I said, after landing the ship and began getting ready to head out.

"Alrighty." Yn a bit too fast.

I got to the ramp and just as it hit the ground I looked down to see the kid beside me. I turned to my other side to see Yn standing the smiling brightly at the trees in front of us.

"Did you really expect us to listen?" She said not looking at me still.

"The kid I had hoped would, but you not at all." I said with a sigh. I was really just giving her a hard time, she had always been like this. If nothing was seriously wrong in that moment, she was all jokes and sarcasm.

"When have I ever listened to what you said?" She asked.

"Never."

"Exactly, so are we going or what?" She asked.

I rolled my eyes and sighed knowing there was no way of keeping her here, "Oh what the hell, let's go. Stay close." I said.

We walked through some trees for about half a mile before I saw a hut in the distance. It was a tavern. When we walked in we got quite a few looks from the people there. It was understandable though, we were an odd bunch that you don't expect to see. I led us over to a small table and picked the kid up to sit in a stool.

Yn POV

A tavern worker was quick to come over to us once we had sat down. "Welcome travelers, can I get you anything." She asked enthusiastically.

"Bone broth for the little one..." Din said before looking at me as if to ask if I wanted anything.

"I'm fine." I said shaking my head.

Din asked about a woman that was sat on the other side of the tavern. The worker didn't know much about her so he nodded and pulled out some credits, more than enough to cover the small bowl of broth. The worker’s eyes went wide for a moment.

"I'll have that broth out for you right away. And I'll throw in a flagon of spotchka just for good measure." She said and glanced over at me for a split second. I had absentmindedly places a hand on my stomach, I had recently started doing it when I began to feel uneasy about something and something about this planet was making me feel cautious.

"And some water." She said giving me a kind smile. I nodded in thanks.

"What's wrong?" Din asked me. He had always been able to read my body language, even after all these years apart he still could.

I shook my head, "Something feels off about this planet."

"It's safe, I promise." He said grabbing my hand under the table for a split second before letting it go.

"I know, I guess I'm just a lot more paranoid than I used to be." I said.

He nodded and shifted his gaze. "She's gone." he said.

"What?" I asked before looking to where he was.

Instead of answering me though he was already up and making his way out of the tavern. I followed behind him. As I passed the bar I dig into my pocket and found a few rouge crudités and tossed them to her.

"Keep an eye on the kid." I said and followed the armor-clad man out of the tavern.

When I had gotten out he was nowhere to be seen, but I knew where he was. And even if I didn't the sounds of punches, kicking and grunting gave me a good indication of where he was. I was in no rush to get to him, I wasn't about to help him finish a fight he picked with someone. I only sped up my pace when I heard his fire blaster ignite.  

I rounded a corner just in time to see the girl flip him off of her. They were each gripping on to each other’s wrist as they rolled over a couple of times. They each pulled a blaster out ready to shoot the other.

"Hey, why don't you go pick a fight you actually have a shot at winning." I called out to them causing both of them to look at me. The girl looked like I had offended her slightly.

"Oh not you, the dingus in the helmet." I clarified, causing her smirk a little.

"Where's the kid?" Din asked.

"Don't worry he's fine, see?" I said nodding over my shoulder knowing he was rounding it with his small bowl of broth.

The two of them got up off the ground as if nothing had happened and we all went back into the tavern. The girl, who we had learned was named Cara, came to join us at our table.

"I saw most of my action mopping up after Endor, mostly Ex-imperial Warlords. They wanted it fast and quite. They'd send us in on dropships. No support, just us. Then when the imps were gone the politics started. We were peacekeepers, protecting delegate suppressing riots. Not what I had signed up for."

"How'd you end up here?" Din asked her.

"Let's just call it an early retirement." She shrugged before taking another sip of her soup.

"Look I knew you were from the guild. I figured you had a fob on me. That's why I came at you so hard."

"Yeah that's what I figured." Din said with a slight nod.

"Well this has been a real treat." She said standing to leave, "but unless you want to go another round, one of us is gonna have to move on and I was here first." She said before walking off.

"So looks like this planet’s taken. What now?" I asked him.

"I guess we find a new one." He shrugged standing up.

I followed him. We began to slowly make our way back to the Razor Crest. By the time we got there the sun was setting.

"I have to look at a few things on the landing gear. You and kid go on in." Din said and I nodded before picking the small green creature up.

He let out a yawn, it had been a long walk for the little guy. I put him in his little sleeping pod and made sure he was tucked in. Then I sat and waited for him to fall asleep before heading back out to Din. I still felt very uneasy about this place. I walked out and sat on the ground over by where he had set up a light. He was over by one of the 'legs' of the ship. Upon hearing my footsteps he turned to me.

"I got it out here, you can go get some sleep. You need it." He said, and even with his voice slightly altered I could hear the sincerity in his voice.

I leaned my head against the leg of the ship I was sat next to and sighed. "I'm sure you do, but I'm not tired. Plus I still feel very uneasy about this place. I just want to make sure you're okay."

"No offense, but you're not what I would consider intimidating." He said causing me to laugh a little.

Before I said anything my attention snapped over to the tree line and I stood up quickly.

"Someone's coming." I muttered just loud enough for him to hear me. Now he was also looking at the free line just in time to see two men come through with a small floating platform ship.

The two men approached us and Din stepped closer to me, slightly in front of me, with his hand hovering over his blaster.

"Is there something I can help you with?" He asked coldly.

"Uh, yes." One began.

"Raiders." The other added.

"We have money." The one from before added.

"So you think I'm so kind of mercenary?" Din asked he was still being, I wouldn’t say rude but he wasn't being nice either just cold.

I gently placed my hand on his arm closest to me. "How much money do you have?"

Everyone's eyes went to me, even Din turned to look at me.

"Everything we have." The First guy that had spoken said.

"Our whole harvest was stolen." The other said.

"We're krill farmers." The First said holding up a small bag of coins.

"It's not enough." Din said simply.

"Are you sure? You don't even know what the job is." The man pleaded.

"I know it's not enough. Good luck." Din said gently grabbing my hand and leading us to the door. He opened it without even telling the men to watch out.

I was giving him an incredulous look. He wasn't really about to say no to them. He walked up the ramp, "Come on." He said as I fell into step beside him, I knew there was no arguing with him on this. As we walked the two men began to grumble about how it took them all day to get here and about how now they'd have to go back, without protection. This caused Din to stop and turn back to them as he let go of my hand.

"Where do you live?" He asked sighing.

"On a farm, weren't you listening?" The man asked.

"In the middle of nowhere?" Din asked, and I realized why he had changed his mind.

"Yes."

"You have lodging?" Din asked.

"Yeah. Absolutely." The man said gaining hope.

"Good. Come up and help." Din said turning to walk into the hull of the ship.

I stood with a small smile on my lips and watched the two stunned men standing before me.

"Come on, he doesn't bite. Even if he wanted to he can't with the helmet." I joked and nodded for them to follow me. They did.

We had loaded up the small platform ship, if you could even call it a ship, with what we'd need. I walked carrying the kid and spoke to Din, "You know we may need some help against those raiders..."

"Yeah. You thinking what I'm thinking?" He asked and I nodded.

He got the credits from the men and we found Cara on our way and gave them to her. The three of us, plus the kid were sat on the back of the platform. Din and Cara were talking, I was zoned out too busy constantly looking ahead at the trees, or checking over my shoulder. My leg closest to Din was shaking with my nervousness. The bouncing must have annoyed him enough or he was worried because he placed a hand on my knee to stop my ticking. I gave him an apologetic look before resting my head on the shoulder panel of his armor, the cold Beskar was not a good mix with the chill of the night, but I was getting tired and it was better than letting my head fall at a weird angle and waking up with a crick in my neck.

I let my eyes slowly close and a small yawn came out. I felt Din shift a little to look at me.

"Here sit up for a moment." He said and I did as he said in my half-asleep state.

He reached over and began to remove that piece of his armor. I tried to stop but he didn't listen.

"There, that'll be more comfortable." He said setting the pice in his lap. I nodded in both thanks and in agreement before laying my head back down on his shoulder. Instead of being greeted with a cold chill, I was welcomed by his warmth.

Mando's POV

Yn had drifted off to sleep a while ago. The night had gotten colder and she had pressed herself closely against me. I didn't mind in all honesty, I liked it in fact, but I'd never tell her that. I could feel my leg falling asleep from where I was sitting but I was refusing to move, I didn't want to wake her.

"How long have the two of you been together?" Cara asked suddenly.

I was slightly taken back by the question, "We're not together." I said with a sigh.

"Oh really?" She asked clearly not convinced.

I said nothing.

"Well then how long have you been in love with her?" She pressed and once again I stayed quiet. I didn't know this woman and I wasn't about to tell her that I was in love with Yn since the day I met her.

"Isn't taking off your armor a big deal for you guys? And yet you took off part of yours to let her sleep on your shoulder without her even asking. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that counts as an act of love for a Mandalorian." Cara pressed further she was clearly having fun with this.

"She's pregnant and needs proper rest or the closest thing to it. I did it as a favor." I said in a lame attempt to defend my actions.

Suddenly Yn shifted in her sleep beside. I realized I had tensed up quite a bit at Cara's questions. I let my body relax some,  This gave Yn enough room to, in her unconscious state, wrap her arm around mine and nudge herself even closer to me. A soft, sleepy smile made its way onto her face, and I couldn't help the similar one that made its way to my helmet covered one. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Cara shaking her head and smirking.

"Whatever you say." She with a slight laugh leaning her head back as she tried to find a somewhat comfortable position to sleep in.

Taglist is still open let me know if you’d like to be added to it!! 

gif is not mine

It was raining. I never really slept well when it rained at night. Not because I’m scared of the storm but because it reminds me of my parents. After laying on my cot for over an hour, just staring at the ceiling in the darkness, I decided to get up and go watch the storm pass from the cockpit. I had been there for maybe fifteen minutes when Din came up. He didn't have his armor on, just the helmet with a long sleeve white shirt and some sweatpants, his usual sleep attire.

"Hey." He said gently.

"Did I wake you up?" I asked turning around in the pilot’s seat to face him.

"No, I was still up when I heard you get up. I figured you were going to the bathroom but when I didn't hear you come back I got a little worried." He said stepping closer and taking a seat beside me.

"Oh."

"What are you doing up?" He asked.

"I never really sleep well when it rains. I was just going to stay on my cot and wait it out but then I got restless so I came up here to watch the storm pass." I said turning back and looking up as rain pelted the ship's window.

"Why?" He asked.

"It's dumb really." I shook my head slightly.

"I'm sure it's not." He too was now slightly leaned back in his chair looking up at the rain and the lightning through the upper windshield on the ship.

I hesitated for a moment, "Din, do you remember anything about your parents?" I asked suddenly.

He nodded, "A few things, I was a couple of years older than you were when the attacks happened, so I remember a little bit more. What about you?"

"Not much, it's all fuzzy mostly. I honestly struggle to remember their faces sometimes. But I remember one thing clearly." he hummed for me to continue.

"My mother was scared when it stormed at night, so anytime it did my father would take her to the living room and turn on some slow music and slow dance with her until either the storm passed or she became tired enough to go to sleep. I remember one night about a month before the attack, there was a storm. I got woken up by a clap of thunder. Usually I'd roll over and go back to sleep, storms were fairly common on our part of the planet. But then I heard the music and got curious. I went out to the living room and saw them dancing. My father saw me and stopped. Then he scooped me up in his arms without a second thought and we all danced together... it's the only solid memory I have of them. Ever since then, if it rains at night I don't really sleep. It just brings back memories of them, I guess." I said. I refused to let myself look over at him because I knew that if I did then the tears I could feel building behind my eyes would fall.

Din didn't say a word just stood up and made his way to the back of the cockpit. For a moment I all but through he was just going to leave me sitting there. He pulled something out of a storage unit and hooked it up to a panel.

"What are you doing?" I asked. In all the time I had lived on this ship in the past, I can’t remember a time in which he ever got anything out of that cabinet or hooked anything up to that panel.

Din said nothing as he did. I was really confused at this point but then I was greeted with the sound of soft music playing.

I gave him a questioning look.

"I'm not the best dancer but I at least know how to sway to music." He shrugged and held his hand out to me.

I was skeptical but still stood up and took his hand.

"You don't have to." I said looking up into his visor.

"I want to." He said.

I reached up and hooked my arms around his neck as his came to rest on my waist. At first it felt like his hands were just barely ghosting over my waist, but after a moment of hesitation the fell into place.

We slowly swayed to the music. This was the closest we’d ever been, by choice. Sure we have had to share a cot before or take cover in a cramped alleyway while on a bounty hunt, but in those cases we didn’t really have a choice but to be so close. But neither of us seemed to care.

Suddenly I felt a light push against the inside of my stomach, Din had felt it too since my stomach was pressed slightly against him and he didn’t have his armor on. I stopped swaying as Din did too.

"What was that?" He asked.

"I-I think it was the baby kicking." I said stunned looking up at him. Then as if to confirm it was that, the baby kicked again. As if on instinct he moved his hand from my waist to my stomach and felt another kick against his palm.

"Wow." Din sighed in awe.

It suddenly felt difficult to breathe and I swallowed thickly to bite back my sudden urge to cry. I brought my hands down off of Din’s shoulders to wipe my eyes. It was no use, I felt the tears coming and on instinct, I wrapped my arms around Din’s torso and buried my face into his chest.

"Hey...hey it's okay." Din said holding me and rubbing my back trying to comfort me.

In the short months I had been here with him on the ship, he had quickly gotten used to and adapted to my hormones and mood swings.

I continued to cry and Din held me. When I finally gained control of my crying to bring it down to a sniffle and pulled back.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just never realized how much not being able to share all these little moments with my mother was going to hurt..." I took a deep breath and sighed, "Damn, I just miss them so much."

"I know, and I know it's not even remotely close but I'm here. And you can share all those moments with me, it's not the same but it's something, I guess." Din said trying to comfort me but the way he said it made him sound like he was uncertain and like he felt like he may have overstepped a boundary.

"Thank you Din, that actually really helps. Knowing I'm not alone. It's been hard. So hard." I said hugging him once again and nuzzling my face into his chest.

We slowly began swaying again to the music. We stayed like this for a while before I let out a yawn. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t getting tired.

"Tired?" Din asked.  

I shook my head but yawned again despite my efforts to not to.

"Let's get you back to your cot." Din said stepping away from me but I grabbed his arm.

"Please don't leave me." I said in a sudden panic.

Only now did Din seem to notice the dark circles under my eyes.

"Yn you need to get some sleep." He said stepping back in front of me to look me over.

I nodded but made no attempt to start moving to head back down to my cot.

"Can… Can I stay with you? Just for the night. I promise. I…  I just don't want to be alone right now." I said and tears fell again. My hormones getting the better of me since I was so tired.

"Of course. Come on." Din said holding his hand out to me. This time I took and allowed him to guide me to the ladder. He climbed down first and then held a gentle hand against me hip to hide me down. Then he lead me to his cot. It was a little bigger than mine and we would have plenty of space for us both.

It wasn't the first time we’d slept together but usually, we would keep to ourselves but I really needed the comfort. I laid on my side with my back to Din. Then I took his arm and wrapped it around my torso and brought his hand to my chest where lased my fingers with his and held it tightly.

Din had slipped off his helmet once we were closed off in the pod and the light couldn't pour in. He kept whispering things to me like,

“It's okay, I'm here for you. I'm never going anywhere. I'll always be here for you."

Eventually his soft-spoken words lulled me to sleep.

Din’s Pov

Her grip on my hand had loosened and so I let it slip down to her waist. There, my thumbs began to rub gentle circles on the slightly exposed skin from where her shirt had moved a little.

"You know, I really love your mom. I should let you know this sooner rather than later, but you're going to be born into a pretty odd family. You'll have a mother who loves you like there's no tomorrow, you'll have me too. And even though I'm not your real dad, I'll always be there for you. You'll also have an older brother, who's going to look like he's younger than you in a couple of years. He's actually older than me and your mom. That's another crazy thing about this life. There are so many different living things out there that all live their own unique life. Most of them keep to themselves or are peaceful with others, but some aren't. If there's ever a time where things get scary for you, I promise I will not let anyone or anything hurt you. I've loved you since the first time I saw your little picture where you looked like a bean, and I will love you until the end of time, I'll love you, your mom and your brother until then. Our little makeshift family." I whispered to her baby.

It was at that moment that it hit me, we already have the kid, and soon there would be another tiny baby here. It was going to get a little confusing having the child or the kid plus the baby. In the one picture Yn had of the baby, it looked like a bean. I know it didn’t look like that anymore, the picture was from a while ago. But that did not matter, the baby’s nickname was going to be Bean. At least until she finds out if it’s a boy or a girl, or until it’s born which ever she decides.

Eventually I slowly began to fall asleep. I was just falling asleep when I heard the soft whimpers of the child, I knew they would soon become cries and I didn't want them to wale Yn. So I carefully slipped off the cot after putting on my helmet, a task that was much easier said than done. Then I walked over to the kid’s little pod.

"Hey, buddy, what's wrong?"

The child cooed upon seeing me, then a rumble of thunder shook the ship a little and he began whimpering again. I looked over to Yn to make sure she hadn't been woken up.

"Oh, are you scared of the thunder?" I asked as I took him in my arms and began to gently bounce the child to calm him.

"I'll make you a one time offer. Yn already sleeping in my cot with me, why don't you join us and we'll ride out this storm together?"

The child cooed and made grabby hands for his blanket. I grabbed it and draped it over the kid.

"Din?" A groggy half-awake voice called out to me from the cot.

"Right here. The kid got scared, you mind if he joins us?"

"Mm mm" she hummed shaking her head.

The kid was now reaching out to her and she gladly took him.

She laid back down on her side and the child cuddle to her chest with his blanket still draped over him. I found his way back to my former spot behind her and after the door slid shut my helmet was removed and I laid backs down, My hand finding its way back to her stomach. Yn absentmindedly gently ran the back of her finger over the child's head effectively lulling him to sleep. Soon our small family was all peacefully sleeping.
