I'll Do The Same { Din Djarin x OC}

Chapter Thirty Three: Constellations

author's note: Wow. Here it is, ya'll. The last chapter of the first book that I have ever finished. I am beyond proud of it. It makes me so happy to know this book has touched so many of you. I am beyond thankful for all the support and love. I never expected to write a few chapters, no less an entire book longer than harry potter or the hobbit!! the epilogue and a lengthy thank you will be up soon!! :))

Anyways, here's some good "mood" songs to listen to while reading this, inspired by the ones I listened to while writing it!* "East" by Sleeping at Last* "Sparks" by Coldplay(any OTP's anthem... but this song is especially special to Thell/Din for me)* "To The Mountains" and "Apple Pie" by Lizzy McAlpine... Mountains is the song that gave me the inspiration to write this chapter and end it in the way that I did. It really sums up the mood and feel of this chapter for me, and where Thell ends up. :)

"You're really not going to tell me?"

"Nope."

"For real? I don't get any hints or anything?"

"Nothing."

Thell groaned, slumping back against her seat and keeping her hands over her eyes. Grogu sat in his usual seat beside her, strapped in and surrounded by a mass of blankets. She could hear him murmuring softly to himself, probably playing with that silver orb Din had given back to him as soon as they entered the Razor Crest.

They had been flying for hours through hyperspace, but the ship suddenly jerked, alerting Thell that they had entered some type of atmosphere. Din had been quiet ever since they left Nevarro, never sharing too much about where they were headed or what they were doing. All Thell knew was that they were finally together again, back in the Crest after all this time. Grogu in his seat, Din piloting the ship. The right way of things.

The ship lurched under Thell's feet, and she could hear Din fumbling in his seat beside her.

"Keep your eyes closed," Din told her as he unbuckled her from her seat, helping to her feet. She wandered blindly down into the cargo hold, one hand on Din's arm. She could hear Grogu babbling in his arms as she heard the drop of the telescopic ramp, and a light breeze flowed inside the cargo hold. The air tasted almost sweet on Thell's tongue, and outside, she could hear the soft sounds of birdsong, the distant rush of water.

"Any guesses?"

"Hmm," Thell murmured, chewing on her lip. "Probably not Trask, right? I don't smell any fish."

Din chuckled beside her, a sound that lifted her heart. "Open your eyes, kar'ta."

They were back on Naboo, months later. It looked as beautiful as Thell remembered it, but even more so. The green of the grass was more vivid, the distant waterfalls crystalline in the bright light. Overhead, flocks of birds flew above in the cloudless sky, squawking and disappearing into the forest around them. This was a different field than the last one, Din having landed the Razor Crest in a more densely forested area, like they were hiding out on purpose.

"Din...?" She questioned, already turning her head to see him stripping his helmet. His dark hair stuck to his head, but he shook it out, falling in gentle waves across his forehead and ears. Grogu made a small awed sound as he tilted his back to look at the Mandalorian, and Thell felt the same wonder wash over her. She would never tire of seeing his face; she hadn't seen him in fresh sunlight like this before, looking as healthy and confident as he did. He caught her staring, brown eyes flickering in her direction and making Thell blush and look away. Maybe they had confessed their love for each other, even slept beside each other for nights on end, but he still made her feel like everything was brand new. He still made her feel like a love struck teenager.
