Disclaimer: Doctor – Well, Hi there, Julie! [Grins that adorable, wild grin of his]

Me – [Swoons]

Donna – Get yourself together, girl! You have a fanfiction to write!

Me - [Sighs and looks solemnly at the fanfiction readers] I, sadly, do not own Doctor Who. Sadly.

I love Doctor Who.

The Doctor had been sulking around the TARDIS for days, now. Ever since Rose had left, he had no one to talk to, and he really didn't feel like going off to save the world. He was 905 years old for Heaven's sake! He had some sort of right to be tired. He was in a serious need of a good, long break.

The Doctor sat with his head in his hands as the TARDIS hummed softly. He heard a soft beeping that was slowly becoming louder. Doctor groaned and stood up to see what it was. He shuffled his feet to the console and peered at the screen. The screen showed a newspaper add for a teaching job. English to be specific. He took in the information on the screen. The job was offered in Chiswick in 1996.

He tried not to cross his arms and glare at the TARDIS. He didn't try hard enough. "Seriously?" Doctor said out loud to her. He groaned.

The TARDIS always knew best, he supposed. He printed out the information on the screen and started pushing and popping knobs and spinning thingies. 'Well,' The Doctor thought, 'At least I've never been an English teacher before.'

I love Doctor Who.

Donna Noble, freshly turned a proud 18 years old, was getting ready for the new school year. Her senior year. Oh, she was so excited. It was the day before the first day of school, and she was stuffing her notebooks and pencils in her new bright red backpack that all of her friends insisted she buy because it was a perfect match for her ginger hair.

She hassled around her room until she had made sure she was completely ready for the day. She had laid out the perfect outfit, and all of her supplies were in perfect order. All she had to do now was get in bed and go to sleep.

The "Donna Noble, if your not in bed in the next five minutes, your going to severely regret it!" from her mother was right on que.

Donna crawled into bed and turned off her lamp. She prayed the next day would come soon.

I love Doctor Who.

The students in the English class room bustled about their business. Talking and leaning back in their chairs in the usual teenage fashion. Their new teacher had not yet arrived.

Donna Noble leaned over her desk to talk to her best friend. "What do you think he's like?" Donna asked her friend. Her friend, Lisa, had dark brown hair and gorgeous green eyes. Her face was slim in a way that it made her look a couple of years older than she really was. Lisa stretched her short, thin body as she replied, "What 'he'?"

Donna gave Lisa a look of disbelief. "Our new teacher! Blimey, focus, would you?"

Lisa gave a half hearted glare and said, "Well, you should 'ave clarified who you were talking about first, you dunce!" Donna crossed her arms and looked at her friend pointedly, "Oi! Well, back to more important matters, what do you think he'll be-"

Donna was cut off by the sound of the door crashing open and a tall, gorgeous man with slightly untamed brown hair stumbled into the room. The students looked up at him as he rubbed the back of his neck and gave a crooked grin. "Well, allons-y! Lets take our seats then!" Some of the students gave him a funny look as they made their way to their desks.

He glanced around the room with his big, excited eyes, and made a grab for some chalk. He bounced towards the board and wrote in large letters, "The Doctor" and underlined it. He grinned at the class again and said, "You may call me 'The Doctor" or just "Doctor". It makes no difference to me, whatever you like."

Donna held back a snicker as she leaned over towards Lisa and whispered, "Egotistical, much? The Doctor. Ha!"

Doctor made a beeline for his desk and settled himself on the edge of it, pulling out a book from inside of his coat and flipped it open. "Well, then, lets open these dandy little books to page twenty-four, shall we?"

Donna watched as the girls in his class seemingly held drool back from running out of their mouths as they excitedly opened their books with high hopes of pleasing the Doctor. She tried not groan. Sure, he was cute, but that didn't mean all the girls had to turn into sodding brain dead fan girls, did it?

Donna glanced to her right as one of those sodding brain dead fan girls raised her hand in a bouncing fashion.

Doctor stopped mid sentence and flashed her a smile and said, "Yes, Ms.-?"

"Lauren Taylor, sir. Could you read that last line that Romeo said to Juliet, please? I didn't quite catch that."

He glanced down at the paragraph he'd been reading and said, "I love you?" Lauren Taylor swooned. He continued on with, "Is that what you wanted me to repeat?"

She got her bearings back quickly as she said, with a brilliant love glazed smile, "Oh, yes, Doctor. Thank you."

Donna very reluctantly held back a sneer. She was starting to think that this would be a very, very long year.

Thanks for reading! Chapter 2 will be written and up ASAP. :)
