F: Too Late

Fandom: Firefly
Pairing: Wash/Zoe, Wash/Simon
Warnings: None
Rating: G
Summary: If he'd met Simon a few years earlier... For [livejournal.com profile] 5sentence_fics.



Wash loves Zoe, really does, heart and soul and, heck, even his kidneys and intestines and all of that -- especially, come to think of it, his intestines, which still knot up sometimes when she smiles. But sometimes, well, she's a bit much for him and then, surprisingly enough, it's the awkward and socially inept Simon he goes to.

It's soothing to sit in the infirmary with him, somehow -- maybe it's watching a professional at work, watching him make the place his own with just a few touches. Maybe it's just that when he's not saying the wrong thing he's an incredibly sympathetic person.

Maybe it's that if he'd met him just a few years earlier, he'd've fallen in love with him -- not that he regrets marrying Zoe in the slightest.
