Bella Hartley & Jayne Cobb
1-209 • Morning R (Language) • Complete |
Bella liked her roommate, she liked living with Mulan she was a lot of fun to live with and Bella was just starting to get used to having a roommate again when she woke up in a new room without a roommate and a completely different layout.
“Not again!” Bella muttered to herself as she got out of her bed and headed towards the joint door. Opening the door slowly she glanced around catching sight of the balcony, a door to another room that was partly open and a man with his head stuck in the fridge. Bella moved quietly as she headed in his direction. “Hey!” She said with an attempt at a bright smile. The only problem was, as he turned around the drink he’d been holding in his left hand spilt just enough to splash Bella. A horrified expression crossed her face. “Not again!” She let out a half grumble. Jayne Cobb seemed a bit thrown off by the horrified look on her face. His mouth full of sandwich he mumbled, “Sorry--” before being cut off. “Please don’t shoot me or try and dissect me or try and put me in a tank or something else horrible that someone might want to---” Her words cut off as magic swirled around her and she fell to the ground in her fill mermaid glory. If this had happened a few months ago when he’d arrived, Jayne would have certainly shot it. But, after having worked through the Narnia mission… magic was now just a nuisance. His upper lip curled in slight disgust and he stepped back from her new form. Taking another bite of his sandwich he leaned into the counter and looked her over, “So, what you supposed to be? A sexy magical fish?” Bella let out an annoyed huff. “I’m a mermaid and now I have to wait to dry to get my legs back.” She snapped at her new roommate. “I’m Bella by the way.” She added. “Jayne,” the man drank from his glass - not taking his eyes off the …. Mermaid. “So what powers do you have, then? Other than the ass of a salmon?” “I am not a salmon! Nor is my ass anything like a salmon!” Clearly annoyed at the comparison and Jayne’s chuckle of self-amusement. “And I,” she continued as she lifted her right hand turning it to control his drink. The liquid transformed into a jelly. “Can change the molecules in liquids.” Jayne immediately checked his person when her hand started actin’ funny. The consistency of his glass was made obvious and he frowned into it. “Well ain’t that just useful,” he mumbled sarcastically as he put the glass on the counter and he took a decorative kitchen towel in hand. “Actually it is.” Bella Muttered. “Look here fish, girl,” he stepped closer to Bella and knelt down to her level. “If we’re gonna be bunkin’ together - all you need to know is I make a livin’ shootin’ stuff. Don’t be something I’d be keen on shootin’ and we’ll be shiny.” He held out the dish towel for her. “That sound good to you?” It was impossible to move quickly or anywhere but Bella did move backwards a little when he knelt down towards her. “My name is Bella, so should I call you Shootin’Stuff?” She said taking the towel from him. Jayne considered the nickname with a glance to the ceiling for a beat. A nod followed, “Yeah… that’ll work. Good talk.” He stood and moved around her calling over his shoulder to added, “Holler’ if ya need me.” “Can you bring me a freaking blow dryer?” Bella called out as he started to walk away from her with a visible huff as she figured he wouldn’t. He didn’t. |
