Author's Note: This is a prequel for my "A Timeless Love" fanfic (a crossover between Les Miserables and Doctor Who with Mickey Smith and Eponine as the main characters) and is set a year before that story - it would be awesome if you could read both stories and tell me what you think in your reviews.

For those of you for have been following ATL, Clyde and Luke are officially a couple and have been together for several months (I didn't really think much of it when I wrote them as a couple, but I read in a Doctor Who fanfic that had the series of Sarah Jane Adventures continued, Luke would have come out as gay which I thought was really interesting) and I enjoyed writing them - so this story will be about how they fell in love, why Maria dislikes Clyde for being with Luke, some new characters (my OCs, but if this story receives a good response I may start an OC submission for you guys to send in characters for this story) and some alien madness lol :)

Hope you like the first chapter :)

P.S. I just wanna confirm the ages of the teenage characters in this story: Clyde and Maria are 18, Luke and Rani are 17 and Sky is 13 (nearly 14)

:)


One:

Luke

My first term at Oxford University has been amazing, I have pretty much enjoyed every minute of it and I found each and every one of my lectures fascinating - I remembered everything from Physics and Philosophy to History of Arts. I was mainly studying Science and Physics, but I was also taking Art so that I can talk to Clyde about it and that was something he was seriously passionate about. I had even made some really good friends in my uni flat - Sanjay, Rachel, Jess and Heath all were great to hang out with and they didn't even mind that I didn't always want to go out every Friday and preferred to read a good book or catch up on my studies.

Now it was the Christmas Holidays and I had just finished packing my room to head home for the holidays, everything was pack and I even managed to convince K9 to come home - although he loved it here in Oxford as much as I did and needed some serious persuading. I slung my rucksack over my shoulder as I heard a knock on my bedroom door and Sanjay popped his head in with a small smile. Sanjay was a really good-looking Indian guy that had a muscular build and short black hair. He was the first friend I made at Uni and we had a lot of classes together, but despite being so popular he always seemed to like only hanging out with a few people.

"Hey, you heading off now?" Sanjay asked as he entered the room and I nodded.

"Yeah, I've just packed the last of my stuff." I said with a grin, really excited now at the thought I was going to be seeing Mum, Clyde, Rani and Sky in just a few hours "you got any plans for Christmas?"

"Nah, my family aren't really big on Christmas," Sanjay shrugged, but I couldn't help but notice him glancing at his feet for a moment and I look of nervousness crossed his face "have you got any plans for New Years Eve?"

"No," I said simply, wondering why he was biting his lip nervously "why?"

"Would you, I mean-" Sanjay began, but stopped whatever he was about to say when his girlfriend Mia walked in and he quickly grinned at her too widely - this was really confusing me now "baby! What's up?"

Mia tossed her blonde hair over her shoulder and entwined her fingers with his, her brown eyes turning to me and frowned at me. I really didn't like Mia. She was mean and constantly teased Rachel for being in a wheelchair and Jess for being a lesbian, even though none of us cared and loved them anyway and yet Mia was always a bitch to everyone who was different.

"Sorry nerd boy," Mia smirked, but I simply rolled my eyes at her pathetic cuss and grabbed my suitcase which was lying on my bed "I'm stealing my boyfriend before you bore him to death with that bullshit science you think is SO interesting."

I felt like pointing out Sanjay came into my room without invitation to talk and he liked talking to me about things such as the Solar Eclipse happening from 2 to fives times a year - I had actually explained to him how almost identical eclipses occur after 18 years and 11 days, which is known as the Saros Cycle, but I wasn't going to let her ruin my good mood.

"No worries, I was leaving anyway." I gave Sanjay a small grin and patted his shoulder as I walked past "I'll see you later."

I thought I saw a look of disappointment on Sanjay's face as I left, but as I reached my car and shoved my suitcase into the boot I just point it down to Sanjay wanting a friend to save him from his obsessive girlfriend.

I got into the driver's seat and grinned at K9 who was seated next to me, Mum would be happy to see her trusted robotic dog again - probably more than me.

"Ready to go home, Master Luke?" K9 asked and I nodded as I started the ignition, pulling the car out of the driving space.

"Too right," I said, thinking about how much I missed everyone at home for different reasons, but I think the person I was missing the most was Clyde.

I had to run. My feet were carrying me as fast as I could go, but it wasn't fast enough and my whole body was shaking from fear. I can't stop, if I did they'll get me and dragged me back to UNIT... Do all those experiments on me.

I can't stop!

The streets of London were filled with the crowded people, I had no idea where I was going... but I knew who I was looking for. There was something wrong with me, I can't touch anyone's skin without turning them into...

I shuddered at the thought and kept on running, keeping my head low to avoid eye contact with anyone and pulled the hood of my jacket over my long brown hair. The blue gloves on my hands kept them warm, but they also protected any human who may accidently brush against my hands. This was something I've been trying to control for nineteen years and my condition was just getting worse.

I needed somewhere safe,

I needed help,

I needed someone I could trust,

I needed Sarah Jane Smith.
