Alright – more detailed description here. This is taking place right at the time when the Tenth Doctor is dropping everyone off after the huge dilemma in The End of Time (part two). Make sense? I'm really excited for this, please leave reviews!
The Doctor leaned back against the railing of the TARDIS, staring at the person across from him. The girl – no, the woman that had captured his heart. The warrior that had saved the world on multiple occasions. The beauty with yellow blonde hair and piercing brown eyes.
"What're you staring at?" she asked, grinning, her tongue poking between her teeth. Out of the corner of his eye, the Doctor could see Donna snickering.
"Nothing – absolutely nothing and yet everything at the same time. Funny how that works, when you can be doing two things that are completely different and make no sense to be done together at the same time-"
"Oi! Shut up, lover boy!" Donna called to him, hands cupped around her mouth. Rose laughed with her. The duplicate of the Doctor sat in the captain's chair sort of awkwardly. There were two of them, after all, and really any situation could be made awkward for him.
"Alright, sheesh! I don't know why I bring any of you along with me! Just give me a headache…" He flipped levers and pushed buttons, standing from his relaxed place.
"Where we goin'?" Rose asked, standing next to the Doctor. She played with a fraying string on the edge of his brown coat. He didn't answer, knowing it was a subject that probably would darken the mood. Instead he fired into a different topic.
"So, Rose, these-"
A loud bang erupted from the console of the TARDIS, lights popping and sparks flying. Everyone consecutively jumped back, grabbing onto something as the machine shook and creaked.
"Doctor?" Rose yelled uncertainly over the noise, her hands knotted around his waist, keeping her upright.
"Something is bringing us down!" He called. Or someone…
The shaking increasingly became more violent, and Donna took a tumble down across the grating of the room. "Oi! OI! Get it to – STOP SHAKING!" she yelled, grabbing the railing and curling around the bottom bar. Duplicate Doctor came to the console as well; turning knobs, talking to the other Doctor… blimey it was confusing.
Finally everything stopped with a shudder, the feeling of the TARDIS landing familiar to everyone in the room. Mostly. Smoke curled from the console, the monitor beeping and whirring.
"Where are we?" Rose asked, letting go of her support and instead looking at the screen.
"We were pulled out of the vortex, back down onto Earth… let's see, same exact time we were just at. But… we're in America now. California, USA!" The Doctor exclaimed, grinning at his passengers. And despite it, Rose smiled back, helping Donna to her feet. The redhead poked each doctor in the chest. "I swear, either of you do that again, throw me down like that there will be consequences."
They both nodded like children caught stealing candy, looking at the floor ashamed. Rose giggled behind her hand.
The actual Doctor walked to the door, rubbing his hands together excitedly, pulling on his brown suit.
"Alright! Let's see why we were brought here-"
The door flew open, and the Doctor stumbled back. Rose stared at the person standing there.
"Hi Dad!"
Everyone was silent before Donna squealed and ran up to the small blonde girl. "Jenny!"
"Donna!"
"You're alive!"
"Yes!"
Donna stared at the Doctor, who looked… not really shocked at all.
"Did you know she was alive?" she asked, poking him in the chest again.
"I, well – she kind of-"
"Doctor!"
"Yes! She contacted me. We've been comming for a little while now."
"And I finally found you! Pulled you right down!"
Finally, the Doctor smiled and pulled the girl in for a tight embrace, laughing into her golden blonde hair.
When the small reunion was over, the girl turned to Rose and stared for a moment, her mouth open like a fish, her eyes wide. Rose gave her a small smile.
"Um… hi? I'm Rose, and-"
"Mom!" she shrieked, running to Rose and squeezing her in an impossibly tight hug. Rose stood stock-still.
Everyone looked at the Doctor – well, the real Doctor, that is. His face was white, his hand running nervously through his hair.
"Rose, I can – um, heh I can explain."
"You said she was gone, Dad!" the girl cried, hugging Rose tighter. Donna burst into a loud fit of giggles, running away, grabbing duplicate Doctor by the hand and leaving Rose, the girl, and the Doctor alone.
"Jenny –" he started, and Jenny let go, turning and grinning at both of them. She had beautiful gray-blue eyes and long, golden hair. Rose blinked at her, still frozen in place.
The Doctor had a daughter?
And she had… called her mom?
"Rose, listen this, erm, it's a little complicated but-"
"Please explain!" she said. "And start from the beginning. Where did you get a daughter from then? Was it one of your companions? Just didn't wanna mention it to me, then?" she put as much ferocity she could into the words.
Jenny laughed a little. "Mom, why would you-"
"Jenny, now is really not a good time for the 'mom' thing, alright?" He said gently, and Jenny snapped her mouth closed, watching the two curiously.
"Rose, Jenny was genetically made. It wasn't reproductive – well it was, it was me, but not reproductive in the way you are thinking!" he finished quickly, his hair getting messier and messier every time he raked his fingers through it.
"Still waiting."
"Alright – oh boy…" he took a breath. "Jenny died. Back on another planet. We all thought she was dead, but she communicated with me via psychic paper, saying she had survived. We talked back and forth – normal conversations, you have to understand. And I mean, she was genetically made, not born really. She's a soldier. So normal father-daughter conversations, I suppose you could call them. And the topic of mothers came up-" he paused for a moment and gave Rose a pleading look. She listened expectantly.
"I told her about you. I tell everyone about you – my Rose, that got sealed away from me. So I told Jenny about you, your story. Somehow, it just kind of, sorta was established for you to be… say… motherly figure."
Rose was quiet, her eyes jumping from the Doctor to Jenny. Things rolled into place, one by one, clicking like a puzzle in her mind.
"You wanted me to – be your…"
"Wife."
"Mom."
Jenny and the Doctor spoke at the same time.
"Now, I completely realize this was a mistake on my part because I didn't consult you or anything… not that I could, you were in a parallel universe, but nonetheless-"
Rose cut him off with a kiss, grabbing his tie and pulling him down. Jenny grinned and looked down, her shoes suddenly fascinating.
When Rose had made her point, and was out of air, she broke away and smiled.
"All you had to do was ask."
"Yes, I – wait what?"
"Well, technically it's a little odd to have a child and not be together."
The Doctor grinned and Jenny hugged Rose again. This time, she returned the embrace.
Taking her hand, she led Jenny away after a minute and sat down with her, making her tell Rose everything. Favorite color – favorite food – favorite kind of ice cream. She said she had never had ice cream, and Rose was appalled.
"First order of business – ice cream. Now. Doctor! Take us for ice cream!"
