Another Fic Meme (I must be crazy! lol)

[ultra_fic]

Okay, so its the fault of goddessofbirth , basched , and cedelede  that I am picking up ANOTHER fic meme, right when I just finished the last one! lol 
 
Here's how it works...

Pick a fanfic I've written and I will write you a comment fic following it/taking place in that universe. 

The second permanent post on my journal [here] shows you all the fics I've written for the Firefly-verse and the Leverage-verse (some are here and some are at FF.net) plus a few others for different fandoms posted here at LJ... Choose what you will and I'll get to your request as soon as I can :-)

Oopsie, just saw GOB requested "A" is for Alibi. So, let's go with "Before The End." :)

Better Off Dead

[ultra_fic]

River was hovering outside of the infirmary long after the others had gone. She was waiting; waiting and wondering and wanting to know.

“Was he afraid?” she asked, just as soon as Jayne exited the medical room and had no option but to face her.

He looked sideways at her then back towards the Captain and the Doc, making an easy decision to close the door before he answered the girl.

“Not afraid o’ nothin’” he told her, “Oughta know that” he added as he turned to leave, though she knew he wouldn’t.

“He can blame incense smells and lack of loyalty, but she knows his fear” said River from behind him, her voice too light and airy and clever - made Jayne’s blood boil up.

“Now you listen here, girly” he told her, turning and advancing like a wild cat threatening to pounce on her, his voice low and quiet so only she would hear the threats he planned on making, “I gotta let you be on this ship, Cap’n’s orders and all, ‘cause he done gone and got it in his head you’re crew now, but I don’t have to like ya nor nothin’ and if I had a choice, you’d be offa this boat just as fast as...”

“Hiding fear with threats does not work” she shook her head, sighing as if she were almost disappointed in him somehow, “He can try but she remains unmoved” she shrugged, sitting herself down on the seat that was now directly behind her without ever breaking eye contact.

The trouble Jayne was having was knowing she was right. The look in her eyes weren’t so very clear, never gorram was, but even an ape like him had an idea what she was getting at.

Afore they left this boat and flew away in them shuttles, she had him kiss her, her last request before she died. Now she was here, all alive and such, and she knew, somehow she ruttin’ well knew that things had changed, that he saw her different, that the real reason they’d been late getting back here for the Captain was ‘cause his mind was all distracted remembering kissing her and wondering on what else he could get.

Muttering curses and obscenities that even River couldn’t hear as he turned and stormed away, Jayne almost wished he had seen the end of his days tonight, because living with the little witch after this might just be the death of him anyhow.

Yay, (clap, clap, clap,) that was fun. She's got him all twisted up now. If you have time (yeah, right....) you should consider writing more of this little diddy as it's set up perfectly to roll into a huge Rayney snowball. Thanks, Ultra, I enjoyed it very much. :)Ali

This was the easiest one to write so far, and yeah, I probably could throw some more at it, but right now I don't have the energy for more 'full-length' stories! My head is fit to explode already its so full of plots and such. Still, glad you liked this as it was :)
