Looking up from the piece of Cyberman technology I was currently working on I saw my son talking to a young girl around his age with long black curls that seemed to stop at her middle back and bright blue eyes. The girl was taller than my son by few inches and he got his height from me. Taking a closer look I saw that the girl reminded me of someone I just couldn't place who at the moment
"Doctor? What's wrong?" Rory asks and I turn to face my husband smiling
"Nothing Rory! It's just that I think our son is making a friend!" I say cheerfully and he raises an eyebrow
"Really? Who?"
"Don't know just yet. They're too far away to hear, but she's a cute little kid."
"A girl eh?" I nod and let him see the two nine year olds. We watch them walk up and Nicholas grins at is his chocolate brown eyes glittering
"Mum, Dad, meet Annabeth! She's my new friend!" he says happily and Annabeth gives us a small smile
"Hello." She says her voice lacking any emotion besides slight intrigue. The way she was looking at me made me thinking she was trying to figure me out with just a look and I smile crouching slightly
"Hello Annabeth. Do you live around here?" I ask and she smirks
"Of course sir. My father would never let me out of perimeter of sight though I do reassure him that my uncle keeps a sufficient watch on me." She answers making me blink
"You're a smart one aren't you?"
"Daddy says I get my intelligence from Mum. My looks too." I stand up and Rory chuckles causing me to shoot him a playful glare. Annabeth stays talking to Nicholas until she gets a message causing her to run off. The girl was interesting and it seems that she's completely captured my son's attention. Rory and I share a look before getting back to what we were doing while Nick stared after her.
