Pairing: Completely AU Jimmy/Brian
Summary: Drastic consquences for those who fall recklessly, hopelessly in love.

The pain of the light on his skin was immediate, but after the initial shock gradually escalated. The sting of UV against undead flesh as he blinked painfully against a million different shades of blues that he could have never imagined. The world was beautiful. Perfect. The way he would have liked it. Jethro had found this spot because it was the beach they had talked about walking on together night after night, the chance to swim naked together in the ocean, to dry out on the sand and make love under the stars on their own private island. To run and laugh, hold each other and simply feel whole the way none of their kind had before them.

His clothing was back under the tree, the sand burned his feet painfully and for a few irrational seconds he thought about going back for his shoes when he realized the pointlessness of anything such. Watching the sun come up, he swore he'd do it one day, only he had never planned on doing it alone. And yet he was gone, and the ache inside of Jethro was enough for him to open his eyes and tip his head to the side, the ball of fire glinting off the beautiful blue water and further intensifying the increasing redness on his skin.

The heat was not unlike the embrace of his lover, the flames of their passion warming their skin and raising their own body temperature to something akin to the heat blazing across the pale expanse and leaving it's irreversable burn. If he left now he'd gradually cool and chill back to the normal degrees, his skin slowly regenerating enough to return to it's frigid white, but healing was not what he sought.

Jethro stepped to the edge of the water, the warm salt tickling his toes as he lifted his head to the sky. To have lost so much...he had thought they could have made it together, to perhaps have had everything together. He'd been alone so long and that brief week of brilliant happiness, scintellating and perfect that he would have killed, maimed and fought, lost everything he had, to simply have held his lover a bit longer. And yet. The world was going to lose a pure-born for having taken him away from Jethro, for the world had lost so much more in the one he'd loved, the happiness, sweetness, the stable rock and cunning mind of the one he'd come to know and care so deeply about.

The pain was growing, the heat becoming unbearable and Jethro wondered absently if his blood would truly boil in his veins before his skin caught fire. The ends of his hair were charring, and he lifted one hand to slide his fingers through it's raven locks. He had always loved Jethro's hair, running his hands across it, kissing it, pushing it back from Jethro's face as he cradled him after they made love.

He fell to his knees, the fury of the sun beginning to turn the world white around him as he knelt on the beach, the skin of his back curling and sizzling; he could feel hot blood running down his spine as he clasped his hands together tightly.

"Lover..." The choked gasp from his lips, pure-born struggling to speak even a whisper for the first in his existence as he could feel the ability slowly slipping away. The world had failed him, and in return, he was going to fail the world.

The meme:
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do as many of these as you can, then post them.
