Synopsis: Reader is Force-sensitive. As the First Order reigns Kylo Ren had captured her during one of the missions and tried to bring her to the dark side, yet he failed the first time. In fears that Kylo will hurt her and the ones, she loves Y/N breaks Cassian's heart and disappears. Two years down the path circumstances make them meet. Cassian is determined to get the reader back, but she has her own mind set to make sure he never wants to see her again.

Y/N trudged through the sandy dunes of Jakku. The wind had started to pick up and the storm which Poe and Y/N were warned about two days before their comms cut out finally had caught up to their region.

"Fucking sand," murmured Y/N as she pulled the shawl tighter across her face.

Poe's jovial voice brought her out of the brooding. "Oh, come on, Naili! It's not that bad. We're almost at the base. We'll spend the night there, let the storm pass and get back to D'Qar in no time."

"If by no time you mean three days later than we were supposed to get back, then yes, we shall."

Poe threw his hand around Y/N shoulders. "Don't be such a prissy princess, princess. We have Kylo to throw temper tantrums."

A snort escaped Y/N mouth and she rolled her eyes affectionately, but soon the somewhat elated feeling disappeared.

Kylo Ren. The new Supreme Leader. The one who had made her run away from the people she loved and the reason she now went by Naili. Only Leia knew the truth about her and her past. Not Poe, her best friend and the person Y/N knew she'd find a shoulder to rely on and have her back during a mission, not Finn, the defected Stormtrooper, that always knew how to cheer her up. Not Rey or Han or Chewie, no one else but Leia knew and Y/N was determined not to let the past resurface. After all Kylo and his knowledge of how Force-sensitive Y/N was promoted her to shatter the heart of Cassian Andor- the only person she has ever loved with her whole being.

It has been almost two years since then. There had been a few close encounters where Cassian had almost spotted her or where he'd been sent on a mission with the Rogue One team to the same planet, but as if willing the Force to conceal her, they never crossed paths.

The heavy bag slung across her shoulder started to slip, so Y/N readjusted, throwing it over her back and letting it swing by her other side.

"Would have thought that all the training you do made you able to carry one silly bag," Poe snickered next to her.

"It does," she retorted," I'm just letting the other shoulder rest when the inevitable time comes when I'll have to throw your unconscious body over my shoulder and save your ass."

Poe let out a breathy laugh, his own face half covered by a piece of cloth, but you could see the smile lines around his eyes. "Touché, my friend, touché."

They were supposed to retrieve not only intel on where the next First Order strike would be but also some medical supplies, the base was running dangerously low on. The first part was safely hidden in the BB unit rolling quietly next to them, the second one was in five bags- two across the bodies of the rebels, the three others on a sledge being dragged by Poe and Y/N.
