Another firefly drabble

I don't normally go for shipping. But this little ficlet sprang upon me today so I had to write it

She’d seen many a man without his shirt on before that moment. Some were pleasant memories, others… well those were best left tucked away into the past.

But this was the first time she had seen him shirtless. She hadn’t expected her own reaction. The lean body, ripcord muscles firm under the skin, signs of a hard life, signs of struggle and survival etched over every inch of his exposed flesh.

Was it getting hot in here or was it just her? No it was the air. Definitely the air.

That was her story and she was sticking to it.
