Burn Through

She didn’t know how to handle him. Couldn’t put him in an equation and make him work. Couldn’t feel him out, made a promise - no touching guns. And yet she want to touch, feel, explore the living weapons that were them both. She blurred, blinked and could feel his corded muscles beneath her fingers.

“Already broke that promise, before Miranda.” River’s eyes blinked rapidly as she could feel every molecule of him drift over her and weigh her down. “He’s a weapon, a gun and she shouldn’t touch. She’ll bruise and break and forget how to be.”

“I ain’t gonna touch you, River. Ain’t gonna bruise or break you none,” Jayne said roughly, his hands enveloping her shaking shoulders.

“Not her. She’ll bruise you.”

“You ain’t nothing, just a little girl.”

“Not so little,” River dug her fingers into his shoulder, trying to balance herself. His senses overwhelmed her, pulling her in deeper. Images of her naked, bloody and in battle swamped her mind.

She pushed him back against the weapons locker. Jayne glared down at her, still trying to balance her. She whimpered against him, feeling his blood pound through his veins. She rolled her hips against his, trying to calm the rumble of emotions that flooded her.

“I’ll just hurt you. I’m not delicate, but I’m not strong. I don’t know -”

“Yer a mind readin’ genius, and there’s somethin’ you don’t know?” Jayne groaned, clenching his jaw.

“Never had to, never felt this.” River whimpered. “Need to feel you, need to see you.”

“River -”

“Nobility doesn’t suit you. Don’t want noble grapes. Want you.” River hooked her leg around his knee, jerking him forward.
