A/N: I don't own Doctor Who. :(
Also, I have changed this from 2nd person to 1st and from present tense to past b/c it sounded weird. Sorry if I missed anything. Thanks a bunch to Loki's Aela Winchester Stark!
Chapter One: Fired
I walked to work at the department store on a busy Monday morning. I'm surprised how beautiful it is today, I thought to myself, and it was indeed a quite beautiful day to be in San Francisco. Finally I reached the store, after grabbing a cup of coffee and a muffin, of course. I headed to the second floor, the bedding department. For the first few hours my day was completely normal, customers asking where this is and dissatisfied customers angrily returning to give someone a piece of their mind. I was busy thinking about quitting your job and traveling, though you could never afford that, when a man, about 30, in a tweed jacket and bow tie hopped up on one of the display beds and jumped and jumped and jumped.
"Hey!" I called, "Sir can you please get of the display?"
"Well of course I can," the man said wittily, "but I won't. I haven't done this in ages."
"Please, sir, I'm going to have to call security." I replied seriously.
"Oh, c'mon!" the man reached out his hand, a mischievous look in his eye, "You know you want to."
Truth is I really did want to. I had wanted to since I was a kid and for some reason when I looked at the man, all grown-up thoughts slipped from my mind and I was a child again. Cautiously, I took his hand and stepped onto the newly crinkled bedding. And I jumped. It was a thrilling jump and I didn't stop jumping and laughing and giggling until my manager appeared and said angrily, "You're fired!"
I stopped mid-jump and land, legs buckling under my weight and the weight of this new problem. The man stopped too and leaped off the bed. He took my arm and helped me up.
I stood for a minute in silence. Then he said "let's go" I nodded absentmindedly. Once outside, I took a deep breath and cleared my head. I sat on the steps of the store, next to the strange man. Finally, I thought to ask, "Who are you?"
"I'm the Doctor."
A/N: please comment to help me out! was it good? should i keep it going?
