Summary: firefly100 comm prompt - want - quaduple drabble
Mal ain't never been one much for wantin'. He got by with the bare minimum, and even then he ignored a whole lot of needs. There'd been a few women along the way that had him wonderin'. There was desire and need and a whole lot of ruttin' on his mind. But he ain't never let that get the best of him. He knew when to say when and above all else, top priority was his crew and his beloved Serenity. But this girl was different; a whole shiny bucket of different.
She heard the hum and felt the thrum and met the ship's needs like a momma to her babe. Now Mal knew better than to get into any kinda fraternizin' with the crew. He had his rules and even if nobody else was followin' ‘em, he was gorram gonna try. And he did; he kept his eyes to himself and his hands locked in fists at his sides. His mouth mighta strayed a time or two to kiss that flowin' brown hair of hers. But he pushed down that want and that need and that love that kept on buildin', ‘til one day he was about ready to burst.
He was fussin' over nothin', he knew. And she was takin' it like she always did, with a smile and a shake of her head. Probably thinkin' up some real shiny thing to say to make it all seem better than what it was. And he kept on yellin', all the while tellin' his eyes to stop staring at those lips curved up in a smile. Couldn't damn well think right.
And when he was all out of breath, just huffin' and trying to think of what else he could be hollerin', she looked right up at him and said, "You got some serious frustration need releasin', capt'n."
And he just about told her that all his frustration was because of her; her grease smudged hands workin' wonders on scraps or paintin' flowers on his ship, her dirty coveralls that only she could make look shiny, her bright smile that made the stars look dull. Had the words right there too but they didn't come out. Cause when he looked in her eyes, he saw all he needed to right there in her gaze. All he didn't think she had for him, all he thought he felt alone.
Want.
