She’d woken late that morning, later than she’d meant to, and the sounds of an active crew could already be heard through out the ship as she exited her shuttle, Mal’s coat folded over her arms neatly. She hesitated on the catwalk, and then took the back stairs up to the front hallway, avoiding the mess. She wasn’t sure she wanted to create a spectacle out of returning the coat, certain that there would be speculation amongst the crew soon enough.
She turned down the hall to the crew quarters, glancing over her shoulder into the mess where she could see Kaylee, River and Simon talking animatedly over breakfast, and she smiled softly, before making her way quietly to Mal’s bunk. The hatch was closed, and she was on the verge of knocking when she heard Zoe and Mal’s voices coming down from the bridge. She turned towards them hesitantly as they came down the stairs into the hall, Zoe’s eyes quickly taking note of what she held, and then the first mate gave a brief nod and continued on to the kitchen, leaving her and Mal alone.
