Disclaimer: Don't own anything...Except a Doctor Who poster, a model TARDIS and a VERY cute David/Doctor model...And I bought them with my own money!
Well I apologise for this fic which has come from ramblings with Lar - a fellow DW fan (reddwarfaddict) on MSN, and just generally just being too hyper. Anyway, read on and review if you want. Other chapters to come soon...
Rose's Birthday
The Doctor walked casually along the walkway, about 10 paces behind Rose who was running ahead excitedly towards her mum's flat.
"Mum!" She called as she opened the door and ran in, only to be also immediately caught in a hug by Jackie.
"Oh it's so good to see you!" She said, finally releasing her daughter and turning to The Doctor who was closing the door behind him.
"Oh no, no, no, no!" The doctor protested uselessly as he was trapped by Jackie too – He had battled Daleks, Cybermen, Ice Warriors, Slytheen, and maybe even the Devil itself, yet he still couldn't stop getting hugged and kissed by Rose's bloody mother!
Finally The Doctor managed to escape and he slinked off into the sitting room and sat down on the settee putting his feet up on the coffee table as he reached over for the remote.
"Oi! Feet!" Jackie barked over at him before turning back to chat excitedly with Rose.
The Doctor sighed and moved his feet as he flicked through the channels.
"Look at this cute little present I got you mum from a market on Alterdom!" Rose said as she reached over and grabbed a little landscape dome from a pocket in her rucksack.
"…It's a desert snow globe!" Jackie replied incredulously as she took the present from her daughter and put it on a shelf.
"Yeah, well it snows in the desert there." Rose retorted as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
Suddenly Jackie pulled her into another tight hug. "Happy birthday darling!"
"Mum! My birthday isn't till tomorrow." Rose said as she glanced at the calendar on the wall and struggled out of her mothers grip.
"Yeah, well I don't know if you and him are going to stay that long before you go swanning off again to God knows where!" Jackie retorted in a hurt tone causing her to be then hugged by Rose.
"Oh mum of course we'll stay!"
"We will?" The Doctor asked, looking up from an episode of Neighbours where some people were arguing over affairs and kids and crap.
"Yes." Rose said firmly, even though she knew she would really prefer to be 'swanning off' with The Doctor having adventures than hanging round with here – But it wouldn't be fair to her mum…And it would be fun to be here for her birthday.
"Great!" Jackie said excitedly. "I'll go ring round everyone – Gotta have a party!"
"No, mum-" Rose protested half heartedly, but it was no use as Jackie picked up the phone and began dialling.
"This should be fun." The Doctor sighed.
"You think?" Rose asked as she sat down next to him.
"No!"
"Well what was I supposed to say? Sorry mum but I have a prior engagement with adventure and possible death!?" Rose hissed
"…It was an option!...Gah! Why is there never an alien invasion when you need it!?" He added as he turned off the TV in defeat…
