"Are you quite sure you should be doing that?" Rory's hands were stuck in the pockets of his trousers as he glanced about, valiantly ignoring the sign nailed to a nearby fence imploring the customers not to climb the trees. He was just short of casual whistling.

Amy stretched her fingertips out and the parabolic curve of the apple, crimson red in the golden autumn sunlight, bobbed gently in the air just beyond her reach. "Yes," she said shortly, and blew back a bit of her hair which had come loose and was trying to stick itself to her mouth. "Of course I should be."

She dragged her body, hooked awkwardly around the branch, another scant inch forward, and the branch bowed gracefully under her, a little closer to the Earth.

"Oh, right, because I was thinking the sign said please climb our apple trees as much as possible, so what you're doing makes perfect sense ( ... )

Ahhhh that's so perfect! So very Amy and Rory, and such lovely writing! I can just hear them saying this especially:

"Oh, right, because I was thinking the sign said please climb our apple trees as much as possible, so what you're doing makes perfect sense."

"It's..." she bit her tongue as the skin of the apple brushed her fingers for the first time, "it's the perfect apple."

Thank you! :D

<3! I'm a sucker for a happy (or at least bittersweet) ending, so your comment means the world to me. :)

I also was pretty much sold by "parabolic," as I am a math student as well. :P
