This an AU wherein Rose and the doctor, who's a human, live in Pete's world.


It was an early morning, the sun had just started rising and small beams of sunlight struggled to fight their way through the small crack in the sunscreen. Rose had fallen into bed only a few hours beforehand.

She wasn't completely at fault since she had in fact promised Jackie that she'd watch Tony but then again Jackie was the kind of person where sometimes as a normal person you had to tune out to ensure your own sanity.

Rose had awoken with a growl and had rolled to her other side to stare at her bedroom wall. Always, always at 5.15 sharp.

She could hear the scratching of tiny claws.

She lifted her head to hear the always chirpy: "Good morning, my wondrous Galli! How are you on this fine Monday morning?"

Rose buried her head under her warm, pink duvet. She laid there pondering for a few minutes when she decided that this was it. She threw her duvet off of her and slipped her feet into her soft bunny slippers. On her way out she grabbed her bathrobe and keys and slipped out of her apartment. Holding the door till it closed slowly (she hated it when people closed it with a slam; it always interrupted her sleep, much like the furry creature from next door.) She stalked over to the door and rapidly knocked 4 times.

She could hear a few startled sounds, including a sound of someone falling and a terrified meow and squeaky shoes, and then the door opened.

She took a large breath, before she lost her courage, and "Okay, I don't want to be that jerk but our building has a strict no pet policy and your cat will not stop meowing and scratching my wall and I will report you!"

As soon as she had finished her sentence she realized that her annoying neighbor was actually kind of cute. His hair was a downright mess, although she had to admit a fashionable downright mess, he was wearing a very tight suit and chucks.

"Oh, um, I'm sorry I didn't know that she was bothering you." He slipped through the door and closed it behind him, while holding the door so it closed softly (oh, bonus credits for him).

"Um, have you spoken to anyone about this. About my cat? Because if you did than that's fine but I was hoping that if anyone found out about this that I'd have the time to find a new home for her and-," He rattled on.

With every second that passed Rose was starting to feel worse and worse.

"No, no I haven't spoken to anyone about your cat, so don't worry. I only came to tell you to please make sure that she doesn't meow as much. So I'm sorry for being so prompt and rude, so um I'm just going to go and, um, see ya" Rose quickly scuffled away, feeling embarrassed and flustered.

"Rose! It's Rose right?" She turned around to see her even more flustered and embarrassed neighbor. "I think I just shut myself out. And I'm pretty sure that you can't call the landlord till 9 am. and I don't have a phone." He rushed out.

Rose turned her head, she could work with this.

"So, you want to come in and wait for 9 am to call the landlord?" He looked down at his shoe and then nodded yes. "Well come on then, mister. What's your name again? John or something right?" She walked ahead of him already at the door, she opened it and looked at him for his answer. "Um, yeah, John. John Smith. Doctor John Smith."

"Doctor huh?" She giggled at the use of his title. He blushed profusely. Oh, he's incredibly adorable.
