Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor Who, but really - is anyone shocked by this revelation? I think not!
AN - This is the first chapter in the story "Touch of Paradise" which is the sequel to "Til Death Do Us Part" which is the sequel to "To You I Belong", so if you havent read those, I highly recommend them!
There isn't any explicit content in this chapter or chapters to come (even though it's their honeymoon!) but it is implied and mentioned - just never described.
Apologies for teh excessive line-y-ness of this chapter - it was necessary in order to establish not only the plot but the setting, etc, so bear with me :)
This is fluff and romance mostly, but later on there shall be a bit of action, sadness, Gallifrey (yes, you heard right!) and a proper wedding. So stay tuned!! And Enjoy :)
Chapter 1 - Oh What A Night:
Back in the Tardis, the Doctor and Rose were desperately searching for a bedroom, but the Tardis was not helping them out.
"This really isn't funny!" said the Doctor sternly after having searched all the Eastern corridors (where their bedrooms were usually located) and finding nothing.
"Why won't she let us get to our rooms?" Rose moaned impatiently.
"Well," said the Doctor, grabbing Rose round the waist and pulling her backwards towards him, "Either there's some planet or other that we have to save urgently and she's trying to hint subtly at us to get to it, or she is being highly inappropriate and wants us to do it on the console"
"You want to have sex in full view of a voyeuristic time machine? Well I'm up for it, where do I start?" Rose grinned.
"What ever happened to good old fashioned foreplay? Or wedding traditions, for that matter? Not that I'm a human or set much store by antiquated traditions, but I was really looking forward to a) carrying you over the threshold, b) ravishing you on some beach somewhere exotic for our honeymoon, and c) sleeping in the same bed as you" he finished in vague annoyance.
"Considering you skipped the first two steps, what makes you think you'll get to number three?" she raised an eyebrow.
"I was really looking forward to step b actually, but I spose you're right. Come here" he scooped Rose up and kicked his way out of the Tardis door.
"Righty-oh then, over the threshold we go!" and he stepped slowly and with all due purpose through the doorway, to be met with a long passionate kiss from Rose.
"Now, what was that about step b?" she grinned, as the Tardis whirred into life of its own accord, no doubt taking them somewhere very special.
"The thing about foreplay" the Doctor said, tracing a hand across Rose's exposed collar bone, "Is that it has to focus on all the particularly delicate and sensitive areas of the body. For example, the neck", he licked the hollow of her neck, trailing kisses up her jaw line, to meet her on the mouth, as if to illustrate this point.
"No Doctor," Rose breathed, "the thing about foreplay is that it only really works when it's with someone you love" she whispered the word love, as though it was a big secret.
"You've got to stop that Rose Tyler or I'll get a big head"
"Too late," she grinned, leaning in for another lingering kiss. But the Doctor pulled away quickly, now intent on completing another task - the undoing of Rose Tyler's buttons…
Despite the fact that the Tardis had landed somewhere completely secluded and romantic - it was their honeymoon after all - Rose and the Doctor were too absorbed in one another to even notice. As a result, they spent the entire time in the Doctor's bedroom, missing out on the white sands and turquoise waters of the Clarabellas beach on the planet Neuvolima. Had they actually bothered to leave the Tardis, they might've noticed the amazing thunderstorms that threw purple and gold lightening across the skies or the year-round summery breeze that smelt like jasmine and rain. They may have even noticed the horde of ethereal golden-haired humanoids, crowded around the Tardis, trying to force entry…
"Doctor?" Rose asked, as she lay comfortably in his arms.
"Yeah?"
"I was wondering, when we're.. you know, done in here, do you want to go out and explore our honeymoon destination?" she asked, gazing up at him in order to gauge his response.
"Sure thing. But, and correct me if you feel differently, I'm far from done," he grinned.
"I was hoping you'd say that" replied Rose, who proceeded to explore the Doctor's mouth with her tongue instead.
Next Chapter: Shall involve an explanation of the strange aliens surrounding the Tardis, plus lots more romance and fluff, probably
