Jayne, Zoe, Destiny, Mal and River are putting the cases of medicine onto the Hand truck carts, so that the cargo is easy to move off the ship and to Maidenhead Bar that Fanty and Mingo own and where Mal and his crew is meeting them to hand over the cargo and get payed. Mal puts the last case onto the hand truck cart that in front of him, as Destiny walks over to him looking at her watch. When she reaches him, Mal kisses his wife on her lips and at the sometime Wash comes over the loud speaker letting Inara know its safe for her to take off in her shuttle too head to her companion job. Then lets everyone else know they will be land on Beaumonde in a few minutes. Mal looks down at the four hand truck carts and then looks at River, Zoe, Destiny and Jayne. River smiles at Mal really big and starts walking toward the door that leads to the infirmary and common area, Mal opens his mouth to speck but River puts a finger in front of her mouth.
“I know Mal and Simon and I need to stay on the ship why we are on the planet.”
“It like you read my mind!”
“I did!”
River runs off leaving Zoe, Jayne and Mal standing there staring at River back as she goes through the door. Destiny Just looks at Jayne, Zoe and Mal with a look that says you should have seen that one coming. Just then Book walks through the door that River just went through and he walks over to the four of them. He stops in front of Mal and Destiny.
“Simon wants to see Mal and Destiny before they go into town to See Mingo and Fanty.”
“ Did Simon say why he wants to see us?“
“I believe that he wants to update the two of you on Kaylee conditions and ask Destiny to pick something up for River at the store.”
“Ok, Is he still in Kaylee room?”
“Yeah, Mal”
“Mal if you of with it let go to Kaylee room right now?“
Mal: I am fine with it, lets go!”
Mal and Destiny walk over to the staircase on the right-hand side and walk up the fore passage and walk past the free room and then the two of them then walk past they room and Wash and Zoe room that is across from their room. The reaches the pushes in door, which leads down into Kaylee room, which is the close room to the cockpit. Mal pushes the door in and then starts down the ladder. Destiny comes down right after him. Once both of Destiny’s feet have touched the floor. Mal’s wraps his right arm around Destiny’s waist and they stand across from Kaylee bed. Simon stands up from setting on the edge of Kaylee’s bed and walk over to the captain and his wife. Kaylee sets up in her bed and smiles at Mal and Destiny, who smile back at her.
“What did you want to see us for Simon?”
“I want to ask Destiny if she could go to the store and pick River up a few outfits of her own and some toothpaste, toothbrush and other personal items. I have written out a list of things that she needs.”
“That fine Zoe and I can go to the store after we help Mal and Jayne get the cargo to Mingo and Fanty.”
“Thanks Destiny and here is the list.”
Destiny takes the lists from Simon and looks down at the list. As she looking at the list Simon goes over to Kaylee and wipes her face off with a cool washcloth. Destiny then looks up and over at Mal.
“What up, Destiny?”
“I am going to go and change out of my black workout pants and into a pair of blue jeans. I will meet you in the cargo bay.”
“Ok”
Destiny walks over to the ladder and climbs up. When she reaches the top of the ladder, she opens the door and climbs out. Once the door is close Simon’s look over at Mal again with a worry look on his face. He then walks over to Mal and whispers in his ear.
“I think it would be best for Kaylee health if after you finish this job that we go to a planet that we could stay put for a week or so. That why she can relax and not have to worry about taking care of the ship engine and other mechanical parts.
“That fine after we finish this job we are heading to Persephone and we can stay they till Kaylee is better.
“ Can Wash land Serenity outside of town, so we are not drawing attention to all of us being there?”
“That fine, we only land Serenity in town when I want to take on passengers and I did not want to pick up anymore passengers when we are there.”
“I know that the two of you are talking about me.”
“ No I was just asks Mal, what the plan was after they hand the cargo over tonight.”
“ Sure, I am going to go to sleep now.”
“That a good Idea Kaylee I see you later.”
“OK Mal.”
Mal walks over to the ladder and climbs up to the door. Simon goes back to keeping an eye on Kaylee, as Mal push the door open and steps out into the Fore passage. He turns right and walks up the stairs and into the cockpit and Mal sees Zoe setting in the co-capital chair that is next to her husband who has just started lowing Serenity toward the ground. Mal takes a set in the chair behind Zoe, who turn around and look at him.
“What did Simon want to see Destiny and you for?“
“To ask that if Destiny and you would run to the store and buy some things for River after help deliver the cargo to Mingo and Fanty. To ask if we would go to a planet that we could stay for a week or so till Kaylee get better.
“So are we staying on Beaumonde till Kaylee better?”
“No, just long to make the drop the cargo and for Zoe and Destiny to picks some stuff up for River. Then we are going to head to Persephone to take care of a few things and we will stay there till Kaylee gets well.”
“Sounds like a good plan to me, how about you Zoe?”
“ Me too, we have been in space far to long. It will be enjoyable to be planet sides far a little while. Where Destiny at Mal?”
“She is changing into a pair of blue jeans. She will meet us in the cargo bay. Wash you are in charge of the ship while Destiny, Zoe, Jayne and I are off the ship. Simon is keeping an eye on Kaylee.”
“(As he lands the ship) Your ship is in safe hands, Mal.”
Wash put the ship into the park position then hits the off switch turning off the ship flying gear. Nevertheless, he keeps but keeps the intercom, radio and view screens and lights running. Down in the cargo bay Jayne has open the airlock doors, as Mal, Zoe and Destiny walk down the stairs into the cargo bay. Jayne looks up and sees Destiny, Mal and Zoe walking toward him. Jayne eyes get really big when he sees Destiny in her black tank top and favorite pair of blue jeans. Mal walk over and slaps Jayne head.
“Stop staring at my wife!”
“ Sorry, she looks so good Mal. Destiny has not been able to wear that pair of jeans in so long, because they were to lose on her. However now she fills these jeans out so well.”
Mal: She does look hot in that pair of jeans thou!
Jayne, Mal, Destiny and Zoe then go over and each of them grabs a hand truck chart. Then the four of them start to walk to the Maidenhead Bar.
