PART 1
"Ice cream."
"Ice cream?" asked Mal incredulously. River nodded, smiling, "Chocolate mint." He laughed at that, "You're a hard one to please, little albatross." "But worth it." she purred. Mal playfully ruffled her hair, as they walked off the ship. He turned to the others. "We're here for a week, so enjoy yourselves." He looked at Zoe. "We all need a break." River gave him a slight push in her direction.
"Zoe, you allright?" He asked carefully. She looked at him, her eyes dead. "I'll be fine, sir." She replied tersely. He let her be at that, and jogged to catch up to River. "You're worried." she stated. "Can't hide anything from you." He smiled, putting his arm around her waist, and giving her a light kiss on the lips. "She'll be fine, you'll see." She said, returning the kiss. Suddenly, something hit him in the shoulder, and he saw Kaylee and Simon walking by. Simon cleared his throat, but before he could say anything, Mal flipped him the bird, sayin, "Blow it, doctor." And deepened the kiss, making River see stars.
