Why this must be read:

I like the Mal/Kaylee relationship--whether it be friendship, or romance--but it isn’t often that I see fanfic centered around them, together. This is a beautiful example of what can be done with these two characters, wistful and hopeful all at once.

"What're you doing, Kaylee?" he asked. Reached out and straightened the fall of the cloth over her collarbone. Silky under his fingers, warmed by her skin right underneath it. A dress Inara had worn, once? Or had she just bought it for Kaylee?

She shrugged. Her shoulder bumped his hand. "Don't know," she said. "That kinda depends on what you're doing."

"You know what."

"Can't say as I do," she said cheerfully, but her hands were twisting together in front of her belly.

"I'm staying here," he said.

"Guess I am, too."
