He frowned slightly. "Penny? I don't think that's worth anything now. Why would you have one of them?"
"Simon, it's a figure of speech. You know, from the Earth-that-was."
"Oh. Well, I was just thinking about how I love you, Kaylee."
"I'm so happy," she gushed. "We sure have been through a lot to get to where we are, what with the people after you and all the adventures and such we've had. Not to mention Reavers."
"And we'll be through more hopefully."
She smiled at him, beaming her delight.
"Kaylee, can we talk for a moment?"
"About what, Simon?"
"The future."
"Ok."
He took a deep breath and slowly let it out. "Kaylee, will you marry me?"
She let out a ear-splitting squeal and jumped out of bed completely naked. "Ask me again!"
He laughed. "Marry me?"
She jumped back into the bed to plant kisses everywhere she could.
"Is that a yes?"
She answered without any words.
