The wind blew up in Rose's hair, the lightest of it flying in her face. The Doctor stood behind her, strangely not in his traditional pinstripe suit. His beard had grown out a bit and Rose loved it, though she'd never admit it. Just like the Doctor would never admit he loved the way she looked in her yellow jacket.
"So what are we doing today?" asked the Doctor, folding his hands behind the back as they walked. Rose swiveled her hips, turning around,
"Well, we could go…I dunno. Isn't that why I travel with you? Never wondering about whether I can find an adventure or not, since the adventure always finds us?" she said. The Doctor shrugged,
"Well, I'd say we should go to the crystal reflection pools of Sy'neton, but with the TARDIS charging…" the Doctor clicked his tongue, "that'll be a bit tough. Besides, this is your town. If you weren't traveling with me or at work, if you had a day off, what would you be doing?" asked the Doctor. Rose walked along in silence for a while, thinking. Finally, she answered,
"Well, I'd probably spend the day sleeping in 'til noon, since Shareen probably would have dragged me to a club or something last night. Then I'd get up, stumble to the kitchen and eat something, and…watch telly, I suppose. Maybe shop. Then Shareen would drag me to a club again later." The Doctor's eyebrows rose,
"Clubbing girl, eh?"
"Only when my mates drag me along." said Rose. The Doctor nodded,
"Alright. How about we do rock paper scissors. You win, we go clubbing."
"And if you win?" asked Rose, tongue poking at her teeth.
"We go to the zoo." he said with a grin. Rose shook her head,
"The zoo? Really?"
"Of course! Earth has some of the most varied animals and I want to meet some of them!" he said enthusiastically. Rose smiled,
"Alright, let's skip the clubbing and go to the zoo."
"Excellent plan! Allons-y!" he said. Rose looped her arm through his and they were off, arm in arm, on a grey cloudy day, Rose and her sunshiny coat the light in the Doctor's life.
