“Welcome aboard Serenity, the best damn ship in the verse, Miss Summers. It’s a real pleasure having you with us.”

As she stepped through the docking gate of the ship, a brilliant blue Chinese umbrella trailing behind her, I got a good look at her and had to catch my breath.

(not many beauty’s or females have graces this beat up ship)

“It is quite a wonderful ship, Captain Reynolds, and I’m glad it will be my vessel for a bit.”

Just like all the others who had spent their time on this ship that were female it was not long before they were being goggled by Jayne and all the others.

(I could hear him calling ‘dibs’ from here)

“You can call me Mal, Miss Summers, and I’m happy you enjoy her same as we do, she is a beauty.”

That umbrella had been hiding a whole other mess of wonderful things about her so when she finally shut it I got a peek of a smile that made even me weak in the knees and brought light into this dark place.

(my goal this trip was to keep that smile to myself)
“Then you can call me Buffy, Mal.”

And out it came again, it was clear that she could smile like an angel without even thinking about it, and it was just me there to take it in.

“Buffy? Quite a name you got yourself, but hey I’m not judging I once met a man named Jayne and unfortunately still know him today.”

(in the faint distance I could hear the buffoon saying ‘hey I heard that, Captain! But I don’t give a damn, because that dame sure sounds mighty pretty’)

“Yes, I believe he was the man saying he had ‘dibs’ on me as I came in, but unfortunately for him dibs does not work on this girl.”

Those words of hers brought out a smile of my own, later I would find out that she choose to like me because of that smile alone, because I knew that this one wasn’t just a pretty face but had it all.

(I would bite those words as she kicked my ass over and over again)

“Ready to meet the crew, Buffy?”

The cheesy old man that I am I placed out my arm for her to take, hoping she wouldn’t think me strange even if that’s just what I am, and she took it without thinking.

“As ready as anyone could be, Mal.”
