Donna POV
"So, where are we headed today?" I asked as I walked in to the kitchen, planning on getting some breakfast for myself.
"Well I know it doesn't sound very interesting but I've been detecting alien life signs at St. Hopes hospital in London, I wanted to go and check it out and it'll give you a day on the TARDIS if you don't want to come with me." Giving me the option to do either, does he want me to come? I asked myself, knowing I'd get an answer from the TARDIS; of course he does.
"No, I'll come with you if you don't mind. I'd prefer to get out of here, I can't stay inside for a very long time without getting bored." Stating the honest fact that I wasn't an indoors person.
"Me neither, we're gonna get on like a house on fire!" We were already landed somewhere, I could tell, she felt too calm to be in the vortex.
After eating and getting ready we met in the control room, him in the same clothes as yesterday, me in jeans and a top.
"Let's go." He said and stretched out a hand to me, after last night, after he supported me while I cried, I felt like I could trust this man with my life. "So how are we gonna play this? We need to go undercover but since there's two of us and I don't want us getting separated we're going to have to go with patient and visitor rather than both patients. So do you want to be visiting me, or me visiting you?" I could tell from the look in his eye that he favoured one of the options but I couldn't tell which so I went with the logical option.
"You can be the visitor, I mean at least they can take my blood, you're not human remember?" I stated sarcastically as we walked out of the doors of the TARDIS, I thought we would have looked like right weirdos but we didn't get a second look from anyone.
"Yes, I know." He replied snarkily, tugging on my hand and pulling me further to the right.
Doctor POV
As we walked through the doors of the hospital I still had Donna's hand in mine, but squeezing it a little tighter. I looked up at her and saw her with her hand at her head, wincing in faux pain, I got my hand free to put it around her waist protectively. She looked up at me but didn't let the act slip, she smiled through the 'agony' and then bent over crippled, very convincingly.
We were soon assisted by a nurse, bombarding me with questions. I answered them all, as well as I could and said she had woken up from her sleep like this. I was posing as her husband John Smith and she was my wife Donna Smith, suffering from terrible migraines. I acted as if I was distraught, and refused to leave her while she continued her charade. I sat with her the whole time they were checking her over holding her hand, reassuring her, and then suddenly everyone went crazy and they told me I had to leave.
"No, please don't go John, stay with me." She begged as they insisted that I leave, I tried to fight my case but it was no good.
"I promise, I'll be right outside the door Donna, I'm not going anywhere." I told her matter-of-factly as I rose to leave, just as I was about to let go of her hand, she tugged on it and looked in to my eyes. The fear in them was real, she wasn't acting now, she was actually scared for some reason, then the light bulb went off, she was scared I'd leave her in there. "I promise." I let the sincerity of my words show before turning away and walking away, as soon as I was outside I looked back through the window beside the door, and refused to come away from it.
When a nurse told me I should go and get a coffee, I got a little angry.
"I promised I would stay within a few feet of her, I don't know about you, but I'm a man of my word, especially where my wife is involved." He nodded at me before walking off in another direction, and I turned back to watch as Donna was attached to lots of different wires and tubes, I couldn't tell what for from here. I didn't know why I was so worried about her, this woman I'd only just met, I shouldn't care about her this much when we'd known each other for only a few days. There wasn't actually anything wrong with her as far as I knew although I didn't understand why they hadn't just kept her in for observation, like the plan was.
I stood outside that room for almost another hour, watching her lie there with doctors and nurses hurrying around her, then I felt something strange happen, it was like an earthquake and there was a very loud crash of thunder outside. Everyone was running around confused, then they all gathered around the windows and I couldn't see past everyone so I asked the nearest person to me what was going on.
"We..We seem to be on the moon." The woman who had answered me ran off in another direction, calling someone's name - probably a relative - through the crowd of people.
