A/N: Vignette I wrote for Jayne Gang Challenge. Figured I'd post it since I've been forced to abstain from writing for the past month...now gotta feed the bunnies before they cooperate I guess...Not beta-d, so probably a few errors.

Disclaimer: Don't belong to me sadly....and as an indentured servant, I promise i have no money...got plenty of angst to go around though.

Hidden Treasures by Jebbypal

Discreetly, Jayne hurried to his bunk. The ship was currently in queue for landing at Newton, so Wash would be busy for a while. If the little man ever found out what Jayne had squirreled away, he'd never hear the end of it.

Jayne nodded to Kaylee as he passed her outside of his bunk. Really was too bad that doctor came on board. He and Kaylee had really been getting on before that. Jayne almost thought about showing her his treasures; it would have been nice to have someone else to play with them again. The doc had ruined that though.

Locking the door to his bunk once he reached the floor, Jayne turned towards his bed with unbridled joy. That loony lurking around, he hadn't dared to bring his shiny objects out into the light of day. Crazy girl would probably smell them on him. Yeah, he'd definitely shower afterward just to make sure.

Kneeling down, he dragged out the battered shoebox and lifted the lid. Gazing on his precious belongings, he allowed himself to remember being a kid and playing with his sister. These had been passed down through his family all the way from Earth That Was. Even in the hardest times, no Cobb had considered selling these treasures. No, they were always cherished and given to the children. They might not have any other toys in the house, but there were always these.

Carefully, he lifted the ancient figurines out of the box and lined them up as he considered which episode to reenact tonight. Han Solo, Princess Leia, the robots, and even the sissy boy Luke Skywalker. Unfortunately, he didn't have Darth Vader, just a few storm troopers. But his family had made due by coloring one of evil white soldiers black. Sitting down on his bed against the wall, Jayne prepared to enjoy himself.
