Black wisps of hair clung to her face, adhering to her skin with the sweat that was all over her body. Hell, all over his,too. He pushed himself even more deeply into her, trying to make her forget. But he knew that she wouldn't. During sex was the only time that River couldn't look beyond herself. She could only find him and her, because they were two parts of the same whole. One being in two bodies, joined together for a short time. But she wouldn't, couldn't forget. You don't forget your first love, first loss. She wouldn't forget about Billy, and, he knew, a part of her didn't want to. It had taken her almost a week for her to own up to him that she was a psychic. She had been afraid that he would think less of her, somehow. But, it didn't bother him none at all.. She had tried to give all her heart to him, but she couldn't. No matter how hard she tried, a part of her heart would be locked away, locked away from him. Always, that part would belong to Billy. He had heard the story of how he had saved River, quite a few times. Again, it didn't bother him none. She could still give him all of her body and mind. Underneath him, she gasped as she reached a mind shattering release. Seconds later, so did he. Panting, he breathed in her heady scent. *** During sex was one of the few times that River was glad she was a psychic. She could not only feel her pleasure, which was immense, but also his, which just as immense as her's. It was a win-win type of thing. Panting after her release, she searched inside herself wearily, finally finding the little life that was growing inside her. Slowly, oh so slowly, by a few cells each day. It was barely more than an egg now. But, soon, it would grow into another being entirely. She didn't know exactly how she would be able to cope with it, but, then, she didn't know quite a few things. Genius or not, she wasn't totally infalliable. She didn't know why Simon was such an idiot when it came to talking to girls. Also, why Jayne was compensating by having such big guns. Afterall, anyone who wasn't in danger of being shot could see that he liked big guns for more than the reason that they were intimidating. It still eluded her as to why he even bothered. Men could be such boobs. She wiggled her hips seductively, practically begging Tommy to start the motions again. Grinning at her, he slowly, oh so slowly, worked his way down to her center, leaving a trail of kisses on the way... *** "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Mal quickly slammed the door to the cockpit, rubbing at his eyes, vainly trying to rid his brainpan of the image that now haunted it. Simon and Kaylee, both naked, with Simon with his head'twixt Kaylee's legs as she gripped his hair and moaned! Guh, he'd have to shoot himself to stop it from playing over and over in his head!!! And that s how Inara found him. She smiled. "Spying on the First Couple?" Thats what they had all started calling those two, for some reason or another. Mal frowned at her. "I do not spy! They should keep they're sexin' to their room, not MY cockpit!!!" She smiled all the wider. "Whatever you say, Mal." "I do not spy! 'Sides, why would I need to when I got the most beautiful woman in the whole wide 'verse for my wife?" She blushed. "Oh, c'mon, I'm not the most beautiful woman there is..." Mal pulled her into his strong arms. "Says you." *** Only Zoe and Jayne got to dinner on time that noght. The rest of them were conspicuously late. Jayne scowled at all six of them, and Zoe hid her smile. It was good to see her family getting on with life. Dinner that night: reconstituted protien mush. Yummy. Seriously. The couples sat next to eachother, whispering, and with Jayne still scowling at all of them. Weren't fair, he didn't have no one to rutt on!!! River leaned closer to her lover. "I have a secret!" He leaned into her. "What's 'at, bao-bei?" She took a deep breath. Now or never. "I'm-" Simon was listening in. Damn! She sighed. "Later." Tommy smiled at her. Oh, this oughta be fun! River playfully punched his shoulder.
