The Doctor landed the TARDIS smoothly, outside River's cell. He tightened his bow tie, and half-walked, half-ran, to the doors of his vehicle. He had planned a magical mystery tour of the galaxy for her. Taking a deep breath, he opened the blue doors. "River, sweetie, I'm here!" he grinned, excited to see her. It was great travelling with Amy and Rory, it really was, but sometimes...they were just a bit to much like a married couple, with their bickering and all. He reminded himself that he was now married to River, but her insults still made his two hearts miss a beat instead. "River?!" he asked, slightly concerned, stepping out. The Doctor peered into the dark cell, but he couldn't see anything. Maybe she'd finished her sentence...maybe...but he was sure he'd set the date for..."Looking for me, sweetie?". The Doctor turned round to see River Song, leaning against the doors of the TARDIS. She laughed, as he looked at her confused - how did she manage to get out? "Hello, my dear," he smiled.

"Hello, sweetie," she said. The Doctor offered his arm to her, and she gladly took it, as he led her inside. "So where are you?" she asked. He took his blue diary of one of the control panels, and they began comparing their diaries. They were both married (to each other), although River was closer to their wedding than he. He fiddled a few dials on the TARDIS, before turning back to his wife. "So, River, how about a magical mystery tour through time and space?" he beamed.

"Sounds like fun to me," she replied. Dramatically, he pulled one of the lever's to his right, expecting the engine to whir into action. The bright lights in the TARDIS were suddenly replaced with a purple glow from the bulbs. River bit back a laugh, whilst the doctor blushed and began searching for the mystery setting. She put her hand on his shoulder, leant in front of him and flicked a switch. "I knew that," he insisted, a little embarrassed.

"Course you did, honey,".She walked round to the other side of the centre of the TARDIS, fiddling with some of the buttons. The Doctor looked up and admired her. She was wearing skinny jeans, and a green blouse, which seemed to emphasise the sparkle in her eyes. She felt his eyes on her and looked up into his gaze. "What?" she asked.

"Nothing,". She raised her eyebrows. He was a rubbish liar. "Don't you think we should consummate our marriage?" she enquired, coolly.

"What do you mean?" he said sighed.

"Didn't your mother teach you about the birds and the bees?".

"Oh...Oh, that! You mean, you and me and..." he blabbered.

"Never mind. Just tell me when you're ready, sweetie," she said sadly, and kissed him on his cheek as she walked past. The Doctor nodded; a bit annoyed with himself. Abruptly, the TARDIS beeped, alerting him they were about to land. "Well, here we go, then..." he paused. He thought he heard a ringing. "Can you hear that?" he asked River. She nodded. He listened again, then hurried down the stairs, getting closer. The Doctor kicked around in the random items, until he found the phone. He paused a second before answering. "Hello,".

"Is that you, Doctor?" the voice challenged.

"Yes, it's me. What do I owe the pleasure?".

"I'll explain when you get here," they replied.

"Well, I'll see you soon...Martha," the Doctor answered, before rushing upstairs.

"What is it?" River asked.

"I'm afraid we're going to have to stop our little adventure tour, someone needs me. Somebody I used to travel with. Doctor turned alien hunter," he said excitedly.

"Well, we'd better go see why they need you then" she paused. "I'd quite like to meet one of your other companions,".

"You'll love Martha, don't worry!" he promised. He placed the phone in a slot and ordered the TARDIS to follow the signal. "That reminds me. I've got a present for you," River said. She put her hand in her pocket, and pulled out a small blue box - TARDIS blue obviously. He smirked. Getting presents was one of his favourite things, after fish custard. She handed it to him and he shook it, trying to guess what was inside. River rolled her eyes. Slowly, he opened it. His face fell."Don't you like it?" she joked.

"A normal tie? Really, River?" he said, unable to keep the disappointment from his voice. She sighed, and before he could do anything, removed his beloved bow tie. She replaced it with the tie she had brought him: which was red with small orange fishes on it. "No! Not my bow-tie, normal ties are boring, bow-ties are...".

"Bow-ties are cool, yes, I know sweetie," she finished for him. "Anyway, I think this looks hot," she purred.

"Really?".

"Really," she replied, before reaching up to kiss him. Although he was surprised, he responded shyly - he could never get used to this, he thought. As the TARDIS landed, River pulled back. "Come on," she smiled, noticing that he couldn't look her in the eye. She grabbed his hand, and pulled him over to the TARDIS doors...
