In chapter 17 (Cersei IV) of AFFC we can read (about High Septon's death): No man can ask for more than to die peacefully in his sleep, full of years. I couldn't find any more details in the book, but in the internet summaries I found two different explanations of his death.
My dream ending for Jaime/Cersei would involve Cersei realizing that Dany/Jon/(maybe Aegon in the books?) is coming for her, that she won't make it out alive, and that she'd rather take control of her own death rather than allowing her enemies to execute her on their terms.
Cersei meets with her new handpicked Small Council who blithely make momentous decisions with huge ramifications. Simon and Mackelly watch on in despair. Chapter Review: Queen Cersei is, not...

I got the impression Cersei was mostly upset by her death because it proved Maggy's prophecies came true. Which shows another kind of coldness, since she's more worried by her own fate than her friend's death.

The Mad King
During Robert's Rebellion, in which several noble houses rose up in rebellion against King Aerys II Targaryen, the Mad King commissioned the Alchemists' Guild to place caches of wildfire underneath King's Landing. In the event that the rebels were to take the city, he intended to burn it down, killing all of its inhabitants in the process. House Lannister eventually did sack the city in the name of Robert Baratheon. Aerys II then gave the order to his Hand, Wisdom Rossart. However, before the...
Rise of the Sparrows
After Robert's death, the War of the Five Kings saw destruction and death all across the country. In response to this, a cult of the Faith of the Seven forms, the Sparrows, led by a man known as the High Sparrow. Following the death of Lord Tywin Lannister, the Sparrows find their way into King's Landing, preaching their extreme beliefs. Cersei plots to shrink the power of House Tyrell, which has gained considerable influence over the Iron Throne due to their military support at the Battle of...
Cersei's revenge
Cersei loses her power as a result of her arrest, and Kevan is called back to King's Landing by Pycelle to serve as Hand of the Kingfor Tommen. Cersei begins to plot her revenge against the Sparrows. As she has yet to confess to all of her crimes, a formal trial is to be held for her. Cersei intends to use the revived Gregor Clegane, her new Kingsguard, to serve as her champion in a trial by combat. However, she also wants to smooth relations between the Lannisters and the Tyrells. She and Ja...
On the day of the trials of Loras and Cersei, Cersei fails to appear at the Great Sept. Having learned of the caches of wildfire that were placed in the tunnels beneath the Sept (by the orders of the Mad King during Robert's Rebellion), she plans to set them alight and destroy the Sept, subsequently killing the High Sparrow and the rest of the Spar...
The destruction of the Great Sept had many far-reaching consequences. House Lannister has been pushed further to the brink of collapse with the deaths of Kevan and his sole remaining son Lancel in the explosion. The deaths of Mace Tyrell and Pycelle wiped out the remainder of the Small Council that were not Cersei's allies or sycophants. In additio...
When Osney arrives, Cersei butters him up with an offer to join the Kingsguard and a chance to bed her again, provided he accomplishes a couple of tasks. First, Cersei wants him to seduce, and hopefully bed, Queen Margaery; this will enable Cersei to execute her lawfully.
