He reluctantly turned around. Inara had to be wearing the most revealing outfit she owned. She only had on a tiny top that only covered part of her chest and a very see through skirt with open sides. "You can stop drooling now," she smiled as she gently lifted his jaw so his mouth was shut. He looked down at her, his heart pounding in his ears. "Come with me," she said, softly taking his hand.

"Okay..." his eyes hadn't let her. She smiled and started leading him away. He stopped suddenly. "No. No." She looked at him with her big dark eyes. He couldn't. He wouldn't. Oh he wanted to. No. He wouldn't.

"Why not? Don't you find me attractive?" she asked.

"I…yes…but-"

"Then what's the problem?"

"Well I…we…I don't wanna do nothin' to…take advantage or…we just…can't…" he rambled.

"It's not taking advantage. Why would that stop you anyway?" she asked.

"I ain't the shiniest guy, but I can be a gentleman. I don't wanna do nothin' we might regret."

"I won't regret this," she didn't waste any time. She pulled him into a kiss. He kissed her back. Things heated up quickly. She kissed him on the lips working her way down his face and neck. He forgot any apprehension he had. "Come with me," she said in between kisses.

"Anywhere." More kissing.

"Then let's go," she said happily. They started walking again. He stopped.

"Wait. We can't. We won't," he said sternly.

"We've been over this. Don't worry," she grinned as she wrapped her arms around his neck and wrapped her legs around him. She kept kissing him all over. He kissed her back, but then stopped again.

"Inara."

She kissed him.

"Inara."

She kissed him again.

"INARA."

"What?"

"Stop! I said no!" he cried, setting her down gently. "I don't feel like this is real. Kaylee was actin' just like this a few minutes ago. I don't know what's gotten into you girls, but this ain't genuine. Okay?" She looked at him sadly. There was a pause. She grabbed him and kissed him again. "What did I just say?" he snapped.

"I don't care. I want you. I want you now," she said as she ran her hand down his face. She started kissing him all over again. He picked her up and carried her to her shuttle. He carefully put her on her bed. "I knew you'd-"

He quickly left the shuttle and locked her in, just like he had to do to Kaylee. "What has gotten into those girls?" he growled. He went to the common area, where River was sketching. "Hey there little one. What are you up to?" she looked up at him and smiled. Something was different about her smile. It had a certain element of lust in it. "Not you too…" he sighed. She got up and walked towards him. Here we go again…
