Panting for breath, for a moment he lay motionless, every inch of his skin pressed to hers, his head beside hers turned to her, one hand gently grasping her shoulder, the other tangled in her hair; chests breathing together, hearts thudding in time.
At last, he raised his shoulders and pulled back his head enough to look in her eyes again. For the first time in years, he wasn't sure what his face was doing. But fine: let her see him artless, genuine, even if he looked like an idiot—which he probably did, staring, drinking her in. He was… trembling… no, vibrating, at how amazing it felt in her… physically yes, muscles and tissues and nerves, but mainly because it was Jyn; Jyn with him, around him…
He couldn't gather enough voice even to ask Okay? so just raised an eyebrow.
