Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who.

This is my first DW fic...and it's just a really short oneshot. I hope it's good though. I mean it isn't horrible... but it's not great...

I'll shut up now and let you read it.


Ginger.
He still wasn't ginger.
He sighed and ran his long fingers through his non-ginger hair.
The Doctor was beginning to doubt that he would ever be ginger. Maybe the universe was trying to tell him something.
You see, the Doctor didn't want to be ginger just because it looked cool. Not that it didn't look cool. In fact it was very cool. Very very cool. Almost as cool as his bowtie.
The reason he wanted ginger hair, was because the colour reminded him of Gallifrey.
Oh his beloved Gallifrey... The magnificent Shining planet. The sky was a beautiful orange-golden colour. Kind of ginger actually.
The grass was a beautiful red. He remembered playing in those crimson fields with his friend Koschei. They would lie on their backs and stare at the sky, wondering about other planets. They'd dream and plan of travelling together, and seeing the universe. How simple things were back then. Back then he'd do anything to leave Gallifrey. Now, he'd do anything to go back.
He had loved the way the suns' light would reflect upon the snow and the silver trees, making the whole planet glow with a beautiful golden, gingery light.
He would probably never be ginger.
Maybe The universe was telling him he couldn't have that. He couldn't have that fiery, shining colour for himself, since he had burned his planet. For nothing.
As the Doctor stood there staring at his reflection, a loud crash sounded in another room. Snapping out of his thoughts, he quickly grabbed his trusty sonic screwdriver and dashed out the room to go fix whatever needed fixing.

~~~
What the Doctor doesn't know, is that the universe isn't denying him his preferred hair colour to punish him. Its to show him mercy. If he was ginger, every time he looked in the mirror, he'd be reminded of his lost home.
The universe loved him far too much to do that to him. And he already hated himself much more than he should. The universe felt he should at least like his reflection.
So the Doctor will not be ginger. At least... Not for now


I Hope you liked it a bit. Maybe you could review and tell me how I did, and how I could improve? :)
