There was an awful caterwauling outside her window, River could hardly stand it. Simon clearly agreed, as he had his hands over his ears when he moved to the window.

It was strange how he smiled then and peered back at his sister, encouraging her over to his side.

River couldn't believe she hadn't seen it coming, and yet it was a shock to lean out and see her beloved Jayne-man down on the ground, half-heartedly strumming a guitar and serenading her with the most ridiculously sentimental song.

Still, she forgave him his crimes, because their's was a true love.
