It starts with a girl. She's sitting in a classroom surrounded by people, all alone.

The professor comes in, people stop talking and the professor starts. She stares at him all through class, looking down only to write notes. Class ends and she exits the room, walks to her favorite study spot in the courtyard and begins to review her notes from the morning's class.

"Hullo." Says a cheery voice. She looks up from her notes to see an open tweed coat covering a light blue shirt whose collar is held together by a blue bowtie.

She scrunches her eyebrows together both from the sun and out of confusion. "Hello?"

"I was just wondering if you knew the way to the library, I'm a bit lost. Never been here before, so it's all a bit new. I love new things, don't you love new things?" He looks down at her, expectant. He runs his thumbs up and down his blue suspenders as he waits for her answer.

"Um, its over there." She points behind him.

"Oh, I see. Thank you…" He pauses, waiting for her name.

"Sandy."

"Sandy. That's a nice name. Reminds one of a beach. I'm the Doctor." He leans in close to her and bumps his cheek against either side of her face. "Is that how people in America greet each other nowadays? Or did I do something wrong," he pauses, "again?"

"Um, its fine, but no we don't really do that sort of thing here. We shake hands, usually."

"Oh, I see, then." He grabs her hand and shakes it. "I'm the Doctor. Got to have a proper introduction you know. Don't need anyone to get confused."

"Wait, Doctor what?"

"Pardon?"

"You said your name was the Doctor, I'm asking Doctor what."

"No, its Doctor who."

"Your name is Doctor Who?"

"No, no the question is Doctor who."

"Okay." He stares at her and she realizes what he wants. "Doctor who?" she asks.

"I do love it when people ask that." He chuckles to himself and looks off for a second, lost in his own world, then looks back at her, "It's just the Doctor."

"The Doctor."

"Yes."

"Does that mean you're the only one in the world?" He cocks his head. "I mean, you're called The Doctor. The usually meaning the one and only, so does that mean you're the only Doctor in the world?"

He smiles at her. "I have to go." He gestures behind him. "I have a thing. I can't miss the thing. Thing. Things. Ha, ha." He waves as he walks off towards the library.

She stares after him, watching as he enters the building.

"Sneaky fellow." she grins, "Didn't answer my question." She fully smiles now, and goes back to her studying.
