A/N Hello! This was inspired by Stardust when Yvaine is talking to Tristan and also the new episode because she thought he couldn't hear her, it's a one shot but if asked I might continue it. Enjoy!
River sighed as she walked into the newly made nursery which had placed itself upon the TARDIS. In her arms she held the Doctor, as a six month old baby, not what she had expected when the old girl turned up on her doorstep. River smiled down to the baby as he looked around the room in awe.
"Yes she is a good decorator isn't she?" She teased gently rocking him as she looked around the room herself. "You know I'm sure I did warn you about annoying her too much, and really Doctor going in a huff and telling her 'if you're going to treat me like a child then I'm going to act like one'? In honesty I agree with her on this one. You deserve to be turned into one." She smiled before walking to a cot and lying him down before sitting down in the rocking chair which was also there. "Can you even understand me Sweetie?" She asked and was answered with a yawn as he reached up to try and grab her hair. She chuckled softly moving her hand to rest on his chest. That settled him and he held onto her finger. "I'll take that as a no." She said softly watching him.
"I've never done this before, look after a baby I mean, I've spoken to you many times as you've gotten yourself into trouble and can't hear me," she chuckled. "It's something I've thought of though, I thought that maybe once I was out of Stormcage we could have had children, I use to imagine you and me in the TARDIS. A little girl maybe running around the console with you. She'd have your eyes, those amazing green eyes and my hair, maybe a slightly darker shade though, a bit more like you, and then maybe a wee boy on my hip as we watched you, he'd look more like his grandparents. Ginger almost definitely, he'd look like a female Amy but his personality, well that would be all Rory." She smiled at the thought chuckling when she looked down and saw him staring up to her.
"I'd never tell you that though, it just wouldn't work with our timelines not to mention the danger. No point in thinking of old wishes." She said biting her lip looking back up to look around the room. "If there's one thing I've learnt from you Doctor, one truly amazing thing, it's that family matters. And families do anything for each other... I know I don't say it enough sweetie, but I do love you. When I'm with you my heart in my chest just, I know it will sound strange and corny but it skips a beat. Seeing you makes me grin like an idiot and my heart feels as if it will burst because it cannot be contained." She smiled brightly moving to pick him up as he started to whimper and she held him against her chest rocking him gently.
"My Doctor, my mad man, I don't even know why I'm telling you this, maybe it's because I never would otherwise." She shrugged sighing as she saw his eyes began to droop with tiredness and he slowly fell asleep.
River stayed with him beside the cot and when she awoke was unsurprised to find The Doctor now his usually appearance lying on a proper bed he sat awake and cross legged watching her and she chuckled softly.
"What?" She asked smiling but he only blinked his face serious as he said.
"Did you mean what you said last night?" River paled looking at him before rushing out of the room.
