Right and Wrong
By KaySky
Part Ten
Simon and Kaylee stepped outside the infirmary to see what Book had wanted. Before any words were spoken Mal came barreling down the hall with Anya in arms and Wash behind them. “Cargo bay, now. Book, get the others.”
Book nodded and made his way to Inara’s shuttle, first swinging by the holding room.
Slowly, Kaylee began moving in the direction of the cargo bay. She really needed rest, it hurt to walk. Simon, saw her discomfort and reached for her hand. “Kaylee, can you wait a second?”
“But Cap’n…”
He placed his index finger over her lips. “Mal can wait a minute. Besides, it’s going to take Book awhile to gather the crew.”
Kaylee kissed the tip of his finger as he pulled it away. “Guess if a few minutes is all…”
He now took both her hands in his, gazing deeply into her eyes. “There is something I wanted to say before Shepard interrupted us.” The moment they had in the infirmary had been lost. His brain was fighting its way back to the surface, but his heart hadn’t surrendered yet. He prayed he didn’t screw this up. “I…I don’t want there to ever not be an ‘us’.”
Kaylee blushed. He’d never referred to them as an ‘us’ before. She never even referred to them as an ‘us’ before. Hearing it come from Simon sent tingles running all along her body. It was sweet. “I’m not makin’ any plans to break ‘us’ up, Simon. I think we fit well together. It was just a matter of figuring out where ‘us’ plugged in. Serenity's easy, she has stuff labeled.

KaySky...this is very, very good storytelling. I enjoy it, and I want it to keep going. I have only one suggestion: Do you have it all in one place? There are samll, small things that suggest to me you might want to bring the whole story together for reference in writing more.
Thanks for the wonderful tale, and more soon!!
You can't take the sky from me
When I started writing this story I never expected it to be this long. Truth be told originally I had planned for Vincent to already be dead. Glad I didn't go that route. It's much more action packed this way. =o)
Oldfan45, I actually do have this story all in one place. I've already thought of another story I'd like to start writing that takes place months after this one. Hopefully if I start writing it after I finish 'Right and Wrong' it will be just as good. =o)
Once again, I apprecaite all the feedback. It's no fun critiquing myself!

~Shouldn't that be Simon into Kaylee :)
Zoe never did trust her.
~Yay for the Washburnes, being the BigDamnHeroes that they were in this series.
Good on you hope you make millions
