"Rose, where are you?", I singsonged from the console room.
"Here", she said appearing from a corridor.
Her hair was pulled back into a messy bun. There were a couple of the golden strands sticking to the sweat on the edges of her flushed face, which she wiped gently with a towel. She looked comfortable in her grey tracksuit bottoms and loose white shirt. I quickly noted that she had been to the gym, trying my best to ignore how her open neck looked when she drank from her bottle of water.
What I would do to leave the lightest of pecks on that neck, I thought, Maybe I'd have a go at it sometime. Perhaps when she is tired and won't register it, possibly as they hugged.
I shook my head slightly smiling, "I see you found the gym. Want some lunch?"
"Chips?", she asked hopefully.
"What you, chips?", I said in a mocking tone with a smirk on my face.
She scowled at me before cracking a smile and asking, "What's fifty-nine times thirty-five?"
"Two thousand and sixty five", we said at the same time seriously before both laugh.
A couple moments of laugher followed.
"Chips it is then. You can fetch then", she said giving me a beautiful smile.
I whipped around the console flipping switches and toggling levers, a smile plastered on my face. I calculated when and where to land. The TARDIS bounced about and we both held on, knowing full well we would regret it if we didn't. After a moment we landed and I went tot he door and suck my head out. As expected 2006, July the 8th. It was a warm day in London with a chance of rain. I was not sure why but I had a distinct impression that something was about to happen, it was like the still before the storm. I brushed the feeling away with a scowl and looked at Rose, what ever the feeling was it could wait.
"Alright. I'll fetch", I said then warned jokingly, "but if you throw a fit about them I won't hesitate to toss you into the vortex".
"Deal. Now get to fetching", she said practically tossing me out the doors.
Twelve and a half minutes later we were knee deep in chips.
"These are amazing", Rose murmured though the chips in her mouth.
"Agreed", I said finishing my last chip well before Rose had even finished half her portion.
"What do you want to do now?", Rose asked as she bit into another chip.
"Film marathon?", I suggested running a hand though my fantastic hair.
Rose coughed, almost choked on her chips, "Film marathon?"
"Yeah, unless you wanted to do something else", I said stretching my legs out with a grunt, before laying back in my chair.
"Film marathon?", She looked at me as if I had just said that I wanted to marry a Dalek, "You watch telly?"
"Why wouldn't I watch telly?", I asked slightly offended at what she had asked.
"I don't know. You're an alien and all", she started to look slightly uncomfortable, "I mean, you always poke fun at us humans for being domestic and I guess I just assumed that was too domestic for you."
"I do watch telly and you are right. You humans are extremely domestic", I smiled at her and threw in a wink for good measure.
"Are not", Rose said in defence, sticking her tongue out between her lips.
"Anyway", I said trying to avoid thinking about what her lips would feel like against mine.
Stop it, I told myself as I watched Rose eat the last of her chips.
"What would you like to watch?", I asked as I got up from my chair.
"How about Casanova", she suggested.
"Uh… okay", I said not really knowing the show.
"Right then", she said as she stood up with the most terrifying smile, "Casanova it is".
Half an hour relative time later I sat next to Rose in a comfy chair. My hands were folded in my lap, not by choice but by necessity.
Rose was curled into a ball in the seat of her chair and her head was resting gracefully on the armrest of her chair. She looked beautiful with her sleepy eyes. The only problem was that the chair sat a little too close to his and her head was slightly resting on his lower thigh, not that she had noticed.
Blimey, I thought trying to watching the show, but it only making matters worse.
I supposed I would have thoroughly enjoyed it had I watched it with a different seating arrangement, but with Rose's head on my lap I couldn't very well think of much else.
