[Part of Rey wonders if Cisco will brush off her question and simply reassure her that he wasn't afraid for her. Or maybe, he'll go into an in depth conversation to what the dangers she would face, and that is what makes him fearful for her. Not of her, but for her.
Two separate things, which had two completely different meanings. She was leaning more towards the first one. It would imply he trusted her or had faith that she would do the right thing, but his gaze goes downward and her heart sinks into her chest.
Cisco locks eyes with her and she can feel the Force wavering around him, twisting and turning with what he struggled to tell her. His uneasiness is something that's quite palpable to her and though he explains his position, it doesn't sting any less.
He's afraid that she could turn to the Dark Side. She's done it before. She gave in willingly, but she came out of it. But to Cisco, and to Luke, she already fell. There was too much of a chance she could do it again. Anger bubbled up inside of her, feeling as though she's been written off to one role--possibly the same way Ben had been, but he already showed his true colors, hadn't he?
In the same breath Cisco said he was afraid of what could happen for her, because he trusted her. A big contradiction, one she was trying to wrap her head around while trying to keep her feelings from showing on her face.]
I can appreciate the honesty. [Her words are distant, reigning back to the emotions rolling around in her being. She can't blame Cisco, she couldn't. This was who he was, but it still...hurt. Her eyes glance down at her drink, taking a deep breath.]
I've been disappointed before, it's nothing new to me. Getting hurt is nothing new to me. [He was honest, and she was trying to pay the same favor.] I get where you're coming from with this, but I can handle it. I don't have a choice in it but to handle it, and...make sure no one else gets hurt in the process.
