The Best Combination by luzdeestrellas (PG)

Fandom: FIREFLY
Pairing: Mal/Kaylee
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] luzdeestrellas
Author Website: Fic Index
Why this must be read:

After the movie, everyone seems to be recovering, except for Kaylee, who isn't sure she wants what she's got anymore, and her unhappiness troubles Mal, so he does something about it. This is warm and sweet and funny and sexy, and just a touch achy, all the things a good Mal/Kaylee story should be. In the interest of full disclosure, this story was written as a gift for me, and it really hits on all the reasons I ship Mal/Kaylee in the first place.

She wobbles most of the way back to Serenity, and Mal has to pull her close to keep her from falling. Not that Kaylee seems to mind much. Not that Mal really does, either, if he’s honest. She’s warm and comforting against him, and, when she smiles up at him, all innocent and pretty looking, he thinks he’d probably quite like to kiss that smile, to take her laughter and share it between them for a while, to know what it would be like to feel her hope and her joy as part of him. And then he curses her silently for making him think of her in ways that he’s sure he really oughtn’t.

He’d let her go, but he don’t want her to fall, and if his arm is a little tighter than it normally would be, well, it’s only because she’s a little drunker, too.
