Room 409: Friday Morning Early

[lovechildblair]

Blair had the door open and was meditating. Or trying to, at least. He had tried yoga and bouncing and playing video games and eating an entire box of pop tarts. He didn't know what would happen this weekend with his mom, but she was coming and that was enough to make him more than a little excited

"Blair?" River knocked on the door. Not for any important reason, but bertie had been playful and thrown things around so getting out of her room seemed like a good idea.

[lovechildblair]

"River!" Blair bounced up and immediately ushered her into the room with a hug. "Good morning! How are you? What's going on? You're up early!"

Yup, way too many pop tarts.

[moonbrain_tam]

River giggled. "Bertie woke me up. Perhpas it's his new diet. Makes him more energetic. I'm good. How are you?"

[lovechildblair]

"I'm good. Very good. Are you excited about this weekend?" Blair was going to ask what Bertie's new diet was, but he didn't want to make it sound like he was trying to test him. "How was your Thursday?"

[moonbrain_tam]

"Yes, I'm exited. Simon is coming. And Mal is visiting Kaylee." She sat down on the floor. "And Thursday was good. I danced with Pippi and taught Jack to make apple sculptures."

[lovechildblair]

"Who's Mal?" Blair asked, sitting across from her. "That's...I don't think I've ever seen an apple sculpture, but isn't Jack cool?"

"I missed seeing you dance?" He smiled at her teasingly. "Bummer."

[moonbrain_tam]

"Mal is Serenity's captain," River explained. "And yes, Jack is very nice. And apple sculptures are sculptures made of apples. You get to eat them afterwards."

"You should have joined the dance class," River teased back.

[lovechildblair]

"Did he flirt with you?" Blair asked. "Not the captain, I mean Jack. Awesome, artsy food. What'd you teach him to make a sculpture of?"

He reached out to hold River's hand. "If I had know it would mean dancing with you, I would have joined."

[moonbrain_tam]

"Yes, Jack did flirt with me. I believe he does that a lot. But in a nice way. He made a gremlin's head." River reached up to kiss Blair. "We can dance anytime."

[lovechildblair]

"Of course it's in a nice way, it's Jack." Blair grinned and kissed River back for a long moment.

"Mmmm, yeah, dancing good."

[moonbrain_tam]

"Miss Poppins talked to Bertie," River said between kisses, "and she says he needs healthier food."

[lovechildblair]

"More than just ice cream?" Blair asked teasingly. "I can't imagine why that's not healthy for him."

"I've got a ton of health food, if you want to try some sea kelp chips or sunflower seeds."

[moonbrain_tam]

"Bertie might like that," River said, slipping her arms around Blair. "How's your meditation going?" she teased him back. Of course, mind reading was an unfair advantage.

[lovechildblair]

Blair snuggled River and grinned. "I'm having much more fun now."

[moonbrain_tam]

River couldn't really object to that. She suddenly decided to make him laugh by tickling him.

[lovechildblair]

"River!" Blair flailed and fell backwards, pulling River with him. "No fair, I don't even know where you're ticklish!"

That didn't stop him from trying to find her spots.
