Comment: Written for the [livejournal.com profile] summerofjaylee ficathon. A missing scene from Jaynestown, because I wanted to know what happened that night in the bar. It's very pre-Jaylee here...


Jayne dragged on his pants and staggered outta the head to the landing. He was eager to get back to the mudder woman waitin’ for him. She’d given him a good go round the first time and he was lookin’ forward to gettin’ a bit more before mornin’ came knockin’.

He turned toward the door of the room they was usin’ and paused, frownin’. Backin’ up a little – he looked again at what had stopped him.

Little Kaylee was sitting on the top step of the landing and lookin’ mighty down in the mouth. Jayne scowled. Last time he’d seen her she’d been real happy, all cuddled up next to the Doc and drinkin’ Milk like there was no tomorrow. She had no business sittin’ up here, where folks might get the wrong idea ‘bout her.

“Hey girl,” he left the door and went over to her. “What ya doin’ up here?”

“Oh hi Jayne,” Kaylee’s voice weren’t all happy like it usually was, and when she looked at him, he could see tears in her eyes. “I’m just sittin’.”

“Why?” he demanded as he sat down beside her. “Sittin’ up here ain’t a good idea.”

“I wanted a break from Simon is all.”

“How come? Usually folks can’t pry ya away from him.”

Kaylee didn’t answer for a moment and just sat starin’ at the Doc sittin’ down below them.

“It ain’t fair Jayne. Zoe ‘n’ Wash are probably back at Serenity, sexing. Yer getting sexed. The Captain would be too if he and ‘Nara stopped fighting long enough. How come I ain’t gettin’ any?”

“Could be the person you picked?” Jayne replied sourly. The Doc and his comments really got up his nose.

“No,” she shook her head. “How could it? Simon’s shiny. It’s gotta be me. He told me I was pretty and even let me sit on his lap, but it ain’t gone any further.”

“His notions are all proper,” Jayne patted the heavin’ shoulder awkwardly. He was pretty sure it weren’t her that was the problem. “Maybe you just gotta show him some skin. Peel off these,” his hand tugged at the top of her coveralls. “And let’s see that shirt you got under it.”

Kaylee sniffed and slid her arms out of the coverall’s top. “Do you think it’ll work?” she asked, tying the sleeves around her waist.

“Hell yeah,” Jayne surveyed the pretty sight in front of him. Underneath her mechanics clothes she had on a little red shirt that showed all the creamy skin on her neck and arms and highlighted her bosoms real good. The glimpse of stomach and back didn’t hurt any either. “Any man’d be interested in that there.”

She grinned at him, confidence restored. “You like my bosoms do ya?”

“Who wouldn’t girl?” he grinned back wolfishly. “Don’t ya be lettin’ no-one ‘cept the Doc get too close though hear?”

“I’ll be fine Jayne,” Kaylee smiled at him. “I’ll go straight back down and sit with Simon, see what happens.”

“Good,” he nodded and gestured behind him. “I gotta be getting back; she’ll be all rested for the next round.”

“Gonna keep goin’ all night are ya?”

Jayne leered companionably at her and nodded. “I’ll watch ya down the stairs first.”

“Thanks,” Kaylee stood on tiptoes and stunned the merc by kissing him on the cheek. “You been a real good friend Jayne. How ‘bout we swap stories later?”

“Sure,” he swatted her on the bottom and watched as she made her unsteady way down the stairs and across to the Doctor. “Doc better be sexin’ her up real good,” he muttered to himself.

Kaylee waved and settled down beside the hopeless medic and Jayne headed back to the room. “Hey honey,” he flung the door open and looked with appreciation at the figure sprawled all over the bed. “It’s yer own personal livin’ legend – here to sex ya!”

It's just such a Jayne line I thought and that girl looked pretty pleased when they came downstairs next morning!

Made me laugh so loud the cat jumped! This was wonderful.

Honestly, BA, our stories couldn't have been better intertwined if we'd planned it that way. Maybe we're both ruttin' psychics or something.

Check out my next post, "Combustion" and you'll see what happens on their next stopover!

That last line is freakin' brilliant! And I love how protective he is of her, making sure she got back to Simon before he went back into the room.

You do realize, don't you, that I just sat here and read Jaylee of my own free will. Jaylee that wasn't in Letters? *g*

I could see him being protective, in his own way of course, of the women on the boat.

I do and I'm amazed!! See it wasn't that bad :D

Oh yes - that last line is just perfect. Also, I do love platonic J, K fics. I always look forward to reading fics with that kind of relationship, too.

Good job!

Folks did enjoy that line!!

Platonic J/K is very them I think. You see the ease between them, even when arguing, through the series :)

Aw! This was really sweet to read! Sometimes my favorite Jaylee fics are the platonic ones. I like seeing Jayne motivated to be nice to Kaylee without a real sexual intention there. Seems more special somehow. Great, great job with this story! Especially that last line! :)

Platonic Jaylee is cool - I think because they could both be frank with each other! The last line was the first thing I thought of - then I had to write the rest!!!

You know, the first time I watched Firefly I liked Simon/Kaylee. Now I just think "hurry up and get over that". Each re-watch I notice more and more how Jayne stares at Kaylee...
That or LJ has warped me. ;)
