Summary: You can't dance on crutches. For [livejournal.com profile] fic_on_demand.



"Can't dance when you're on crutches," River says, when she's already halfway down the ladder, by way of announcing her presence. "But you don't dance that much even when your legs aren't broken. Are you feeling better?"

"Just fine," Kaylee says, brightly, struggling to sit up a bit more, to see. "Your brother fixed me up real good."

"Didn't kiss you better," River says, reprovingly. She breaks into a smile: it's like the sun rising in that tiny little room. "That's my job."

"River," Kaylee started, before the smile, and then she had to stop and smile too. "C'mere, then."
