Hey guys, I decided to do a random one-shot, because I only have my laptop and all my stuff from my other Whouffle story are on my PC. I hope you enjoy, remember to review :)

The Big Question

The Doctor looked down at the Tardis' console unit. He felt nervous but excited at the same time. He didn't know if he should go now, or if he should wait until Clara came back to the console room. He wasn't even sure if he wanted to ask her.

He twiddled his thumbs as he thought about it. Would she let him do it? They'd been living together in the Tardis for some time now, and he thought it was about time they did.

He wouldn't be able to do it without her consent though, so he had to ask. He stood up and made his way towards Clara's bedroom. It was a bit of a walk, so he could think things over one last time. He really wanted to do it, and he was really scared that she wouldn't want to.

It was a pleasure for them to share together, so why not. The Doctor felt suddenly confident as he approached Clara's bedroom. He took a deep breath, then knocked and waited.

Clara opened the door a few seconds later. "Yes, Doctor," she said with a sweet smile.

"Can I ask you something?" he asked, leaning one arm against the door frame.

"Yeah, sure," she said curiously.

"Well, I've been thinking about this for some time now, and I can't wait any longer to ask you about it. It's a decision that may change our lives slightly and one that you might not necessarily want to agree on, which is perfectly fine. Clara-"

"Go on," she said. The Doctor could see excitement in her eyes and his face lit up.

"Clara, would you want… I mean, this is entirely your decision, but, do you think we should…"

Clara was nodding with a big smile on her face like she knew what was coming next.

"Do you think we should get a pet turtle?"

Clara's smile vanished suddenly. "What was that?" she asked.

"Can we get a pet turtle? I've always wanted one; I've just never really had the time. It's a responsibility, I know, but they're so cute!" the Doctor asked, beaming broadly.

"You know, I sort of need time to think about this. It's pretty big. I'll get back to you," Clara said smiling awkwardly. Then she slowly closed the door on him.

The Doctor felt hopeful as he strolled back to the console room.

I know this is so stupid, but I got bored :P Thanks for reading, please review :)
