Screw it I'm gonna write it cause I can.
It had been a few years, she knew that much. So many wonderful years with the madman in the blue box. Usagi recounted her many memories throughout the past few years of their adventures. Of how close they'd gotten as... friends.
She sighed. Of course he was only just a friend. Turning over onto her stomach on her bed, she looked over at the other bed across from her and smiled.
"She's really sleeping tonight. I'm glad." Chibi-usa had been having a lot of nightmares lately. She seemed to be doing so good so far.
"I ought to do somthing... I'm not sleepy.. Oddly enough." Usagi mumbled to herself as she quietly got off of her bed, grabbed her mp3 player and headphones, and walked out the door to her room. Walking out into the TARDIS hallway, she still couldn't help but still be in awe of it. The TARDIS was truly a beautiful machine.
She plugged her headphones in and went through her song list and she let play on shuffle. She didn't really pay much attention to the songs that played as she walked through the halls.
She ended up visiting the library and walked around, observing all the knickknacks that the Doctor had everywhere. She found a lot of the recent ones that he took from their adventures together.
Usagi had to admit, the strange man had clouded her thoughts more often than she liked to admit to herself. She shook her head, "There I go again."
It was wasn't until she sat down in a chair across from all the cute little trinkets did she notice the new song that was playing. She'd loved it the first time she heard it back when she was with...
"Stop it, Usa." She thought.
"I've been awake for a while now...
You've got me feeling like a child now...
Cause everytime I see your bubbly face, I get the tinglies in a silly place. It starts in my toes and I crinkle my nose, wherever it goes, I always know..."
She thought about how funny the Doctor could be with his little rants. He always made her nervous as of recently, and she figured that even the little five year old Chibi-usa knew.
Usagi never really thought much about how she herself felt, but she could tell it was begining to become more obvious, yet, the Doctor hasn't said anything to her about it, that is, if he did notice.
"...But you make me smile, please stay for a while now. Just take your time, wherever you go..."
He had all the time in the world and he always did make her smile, she thought. It made her giggle. The song continued as she looked up, for she could see the stars as the TARDIS was drifting through space at the moment.
"Does it rain in space...?" Usagi wondered as the lyrics played on.
"You give me feelings that I adore, that start in my toes, make me crinkle my nose, wherever it goes, I always know. Yeah, you make me smile, please stay for a while now, just take your time, wherever you go."
Usagi closed her eyes and fully relaxed in the chair and just let the song continue and consume her for this moment.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0
The Doctor was busy working on the TARDIS' lower deck, where her engine mainly is. Feeling accomplished in his work for now, he went up to the stairs to the console and then he heard the door to Usagi's room close.
"One of the girls appears to be up." He figured maybe for a midnight snack. "Like mother, like daughter." He chuckled at the thought.
The only thing that still shocked him was how long she had been his traveling companion. Most barely made it past two or three years because it either became too much for them, or they...
He sighed, but he didn't let it get to him. It's best to just leave it in the past, but he promised he'd never forget. He may do so often, but he will always remember.
Moving the brown hair out of his green eyes a bit, he began typing coordinates into the TARDIS console. Though he was a little curious because they are both usually heavy sleepers who slept when they got a chance.
He wasn't sure before about letting Usagi raise her child in the TARDIS because she may be well protected, but the TARDIS was still a bit dangerous. Something could happen to the machine while she was inside, and that happening to both Usagi and the pink one was the last thing he wanted. He'd had kids visit the TARDIS before, of course, but never had raised any kids. Well, his own, yes, but not actually in the TARDIS.
She was a warm welcome though. Young and very similar to her mother in looks and attitude. She looked up to him in some ways considering she really doesn't have a father figure in her life to talk to.
He finished with the coordinates and decides to tidy up. All that working had made him a little messy.
Walking fown the hall, he could see that the Library door was open. Curious, like always, he walked over and peeked through the door to see Usagi laying in one of the leather chairs, asleep, but not really, it appeared.
He chuckled as he realised she looked so at peace with everything and so content. Turning on his heel, he walked back to his room and went to change.
Usagi had felt the presence of someone familiar, so she'd opened her eyes and took one of her headphones out of her ears and heard footsteps walking away. "Doctor?" She thought, getting up. When she got to the Library door, she saw his room door close behind him. "Is he finally going to sleep?" She asked herself, but shook her head.
Sighing, she walked down the hall towards the console room. She remembered her first time in here, with her sitting and cradling Chibi-usa. Him comforting her the best way he knew how. The memory was both painful and wonderful.
She then remembered she switched the song onto replay.
"What can I say... When you make me feel this way... I just... Mmm..."
She blushed a bit as her eyes moved to the console. Checking behind her, she sat in the chair by the console.
"I've been asleep fo a while now... You tuck me in just like a child now... Cause every time you hold me in your arms... I'm comfortable enough to feel your warmth.
It starts in my soul, and I lose all control when you kiss my nose, the feeling shows cause you make me smile, baby, just take your time now, holding me tight..."
Usagi sighed as she glanced at the control panels before closing her eyes. She remembered how whenever she got scared, he'd hug her or kiss her forehead and that one time he missed her forehead and kissed her on the nose. It happened a lot, especially after they got seperated from each other and were later reunited. He was always so worried about her as she was about him.
"Wherever, wherever... Wherever you go... Wherever, wherever, wherever you go... Oh wherever you go... I always know... Cause you make me smile, even just for a while..."
Usagi had always just wanted to hope she thought of him as only her best friend, but clearly her heart was telling her otherwise.
She could feel her smile forming as well as she could feel her cheeks heating up. Then she felt something touch her nose. When she opened her eyes, she was met with green eyes that held a confused look in them.
She took her headphones out. "What?" She asked.
"Your face is growing really red and you're smiling. Are you okay?" The Doctor asked placing his hands on both sides of her face.
She just giggled and got up from the chair. "Yeah, I'm fine. I just couldn't sleep and I wanted to leave Chibi-usa to sleep peacefully." She looked down at her hands as she fiddled with her fingernails.
"Well, if that's the case, this might be a good time..." The Doctor walked over and opened the TARDIS doors. "To say Happy Birthday."
"What...?" She was a little confused. Her birthday?
"Yep. Today, on Earth, is officially June thirtieth. I have a different gift for Chibi-usa, but I had to plan this one out carefully. Since you've been asking for so long..." He motioned to outside.
Usagi walked over next to him and she could see the bright light of the star in front of her. "Oh wow... It's beautiful, Doctor..."
He put his arm around her to make sure she would try to walk out and touch it. "Hold on..." He whispered to her ear.
The star soon went out and pieces broke off of it, scattering into space as bright lights shot out.
"That, dear Usa, is the death and birth of stars. Much like a Phoenix, new stars rise from the rubble of dead stars immediately after death." He explained. Usagi watched as the new stars soon setteled into their own little areas. "Of course, this was a different type of star from the ones that surround Earth. There are different kinds. This was a Multilayered Star. When they get twelve inches large, they die then split."
"That's amazing." She leaned onto him a little, making him turn a little red. "Thanks a lot, Doctor. I appreciate this, all that you do for me, despite the fact of how crazy I can be." She tilted her head to look up at him.
"I'm a madman in a box, Usa. I'm stranger than however crazy you think you are." He smiled down at her.
"Oh jeez, could you two be anymore obvious...?" They heard a sleepy voice say. Usagi jumped away from the Doctor and turned to see Chibi-usa. "What? We can all see it. You're just both really oblivious to each other. I'm pretty sure Auntie Mina would say something inappropriate about it." She shrugged walked to the kitchen.
Usagi and the Doctor glanced at each other momentarily before both looking away, Usagi turning red and the Doctor scratching the back of his head.
"Still just the little brat, always trying to ruin my moments..." Usagi sighed, a little sad.
"Uh... Pluto, called me earlier... saying... saying that she wants to spend your birthday at their house with everyone... everyone else..." He stuttered a bit. Usagi smiled.
"Okay. I'll go get ready and then I'll get Chibi-usa ready." She said, quickly glancing over at the Doctor. He was not looking at her, but he nodded his head.
She smiled again before going over and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek before running back to her room.
"OI YOU SNEAKY LITTLE RABBIT!" She heard him yell from the console room while she giggled, dead locking the door so he couldn't get in.
Pfff Yay. Though, for a split second, or a few, maybe turn the covers on just so you can see the art picture for this Songfic. And the song was "Bubbly" by Colbie Caillat. GERONIMO!
