"Go on, then. What're you afraid of?" Rose elbowed the Doctor softly in the side to coax a reply from him.
"In this world or the universe?" he raised an eyebrow.
"Er... this world," she answered with a slight smile.
"Two things. Your mum's cooking. And--" he paused, a perturbed look on his face.
"And?" Rose motioned for him to continue.
"Apples." the Doctor replied quite sullenly.
"Apples?! Why's that, then?" Rose giggled, "Big bad apple monster try to eat you up?"
"No. No where close," he said, smiling just barely, "An apple a day keeps the Doctor away."
