A Christmas On Gallifrey

Enjoy!


Today was Christmas Eve. River and the Doctor were spending their first Christmas together.

"So where do you want to go? Any where through space and time continuous! ! !"

"Sweetie I want to go back! Back to where you were..."

"Where? ?" asked the Doctor as River came and sat on his lap on the couch.

"I want to go somewhere you've been! Please!" she begged as she put her head on his shoulder. Honestly the Doctor's kinda freaked out because this was new. He knew it was bribery from the beautiful woman he called his own.

"Ohh you mean you want to go to the constellation Skythra! Oh that was a beautiful constellation! I would love to go there again! Or the planet Vulopan?"

"No you beautiful idiot! I'm talking about Gallifrey! ! !" she laughed as the woman sat up and looked the strange man in the eyes.

"Now honey, you know I can't go back in my own time stream."

"Please only for a few minutes! I wont cause any trouble!" The archeologist ran over to the TARDIS console and typed something in. As the Doctor followed up behind, he noticed that it sounded like the TARDIS was laughing although he wasn't entirely sure.

"Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please! !" she beged, giving the Doctor that smile that he can't ignore.

"Well," the Doctor began.

River went over to the Doctor whom she loves very much. She stared into that splendorous man's eyes, those beautiful green eyes that reminded her of that strange but wonderful planet...with the red sky and the big dome that would help you see clearly through to those almost gorgeous suns. Oh how she wanted to go so much. She wanted to go to that planet...that planet that was a stranger for her. She wished the Doctor would give her the chance to see the planet and get to know it better. So that she would no longer be the shy one in the corner of the empty room. She wanted to know this planet as much as the Doctor did.

"River are you alright?" the Doctor said in that very cute British accent.

"Please! Please, please, please, please!" That was all she could say staring into the depths of nothingness.

"Alright, but if I get in..." he was going to finish when River pulled him up to the TARDIS console. She kissed him. She didn't know why but she did. Then the thought came to her - she kissed him because she loved him. She loved him with her two hearts or she suspected. So did the Doctor...he loved her with his full two hearts and nothing could change his mind. Nothing.

They arrived at Gallifrey when it was still beautiful. Before the Time War. The Doctor was uneasy about this but it was Christmas morn and the yellow redish suns had still not risen.

Soon, River was asleep on his shoulder. They were on the highest mountain on Gallifrey and were lying down there to have a small picnic. The Doctor slightly shook River's shoulder just as the Christmas morning suns of Gallifrey arose. River shot up but suddenly, like it was an instinct, rested her head back on his shoulder. As the suns rose and looked as though they were coming toward them, The Doctor kissed her forehead. The Time Lord remembered how much he missed this place. But, of course, he didn't miss the poor decisions of the high council. He missed most his old love...and his children and the time he used to spend with them...together...happy. But never again. Because now he is with his new love...River.
