A/n: Hey guys! This is my first story so I hope you like it!
Disclaimers: I, sadly, don't own Doctor Who, The Doctor or the TARDIS. But I do own the characters.
Character descriptions;
Amy Smith: Amy is 20. She has strawberry blonde hair. 5'7" in height. She has blue eyes and very pale complexion. Slightly Geordie accent. She is Charlie's girlfriend. (She isn't Amy Pond btw) She is generally shy around new people (especially boys) but she warmed to Charlie very quickly. She is a massive Doctor Who fan. She is also very bookish (this means she loves to read)
Charlie McDonnell: Charlie is 25. He has mouse/brown hair. 5'11" in height. He has blue eyes and a fair complexion. He has a light London/Bath accent. Amy's boyfriend. Charlie is very shy around new people (especially girls) but quickly warmed to Amy when they first met. He, like Amy, is a massive Doctor Who fan.
They share a flat in East London with their friend Alex who is also Amy's twin.
It was a beautiful day in East London as Amy, Charlie and Alex (Amy and Charlie holding hands) walked along to go and visit their friends Tom and Ed who lived about 20 minutes away from the flat the three of them shared.
As they went to cross the road Amy looked round to make sure there was no traffic before letting her boyfriend and her brother walk out into the road.
'Typical boys, not looking where they're going. Walking right into danger.'
As she looked to her left her heart skipped a beat.
'No. It can't be... It isn't real; it's only a figment of your imagination Amy.' Amy thought, still staring looking left.
"What you staring at Amy?" Charlie asked looking down at her.
"Oh, nothing. I just thought I saw something… But it can't be."
"What do you think you saw Ams?" Alex asked jokily, knowing how much Amy detested the nickname he had christened her with.
"This is going to sound really weird but I could've sworn I just saw the TARDIS."
"No way!" Said Alex in a sarcastic manner.
"Ignore him Amy. I believe you," Charlie said reassuringly pulling Amy into a hug and looking over the top of her head to look in the direction she had been staring. "oh my god. Alex. She's right you know! The TARDIS really is right over there!"
"You don't have to play along just because she your girlfr-" Said Alex turning to face them, looking round them and then Alex saw it too. "I'm never taking the mick out of you ever again Amy!" he said bounding up to the TARDIS, far too excited to say anything else but "Oh. My. God! Oh. My. God!" repeatedly.
"What did I tell you Alex?" Said Amy smugly pulling out a bit of memorabilia she'd bought a few years before in Cardiff out from under her shirt. It was a necklace in the shape of a key, the TARDIS key to be precise, and unlocked the doors.
And there he stood. The 11th incarnation of The Doctor. In his suit, complete with bow tie and flying goggles perched on his head.
"Oh. Wasn't expecting visitors." He said, turning to face the three shocked looking twenty-somethings.
"Sorry. I'm Amy. This is my boyfriend Charlie and my brother Alex." Amy said walking forward with her hand outstretched, pointing to the boys as she said their names.
"Pleasure to meet you all." The Doctor said, shaking Amy's hand. "But I need to get on with fixing this so…" he continued pointing back at the console with his wrench.
"Oh, I can help with that if you want!" offered Charlie. Talking at last.
"Are you sure umm... Charlie wasn't it?"
"Yes it is Charlie and I'm perfectly sure. I'm pretty good with technology. Aren't I Alex?" he said, gingerly walking up to the console to stand alongside The Doctor.
"Hm? Oh yeah, Charlie fixed the telly in our flat when it bust the other week." Said Alex. Not concentrating properly as he was too fascinated with all the levers and flashing lights on the central console. "I'm gonna go to Tom's guys, see you around!" he said turning and walking out the doors.
And with that it was just Amy, Charlie and The Doctor left standing in the TARDIS. With Charlie and The Doctor babbling on about circuits and switches, Amy was getting a little bored. So she went off to explore the lower floors of the TARDIS. The first door she came to was the library.
'Surprise, surprise. This would be the first place I'd go to.' she found herself thinking as she walked in. She walked along every bookshelf, not understanding any of the book titles as they were all in Gallifreyan, a language only The Doctor understood. She was just getting fed up of wandering through the never-ending shelves of Gallifreyan books when she finally found the books that were in English.
'At last!' she thought. She found her way down to the 'R' books and then looked for 'Rowling' Amy had always loved the work of J. K. Rowling. Just as she was settling down to read her book in a big, comfy arm-chair Charlie and The Doctor walked through the door,
"Thought I'd find you in here," Charlie said walking over to her and taking her hands in his, pulling her up out of her chair into an embrace. "What did I tell you Doctor? That's £5 you owe me now." He said cheekily.
"You put a bet on whether or not I'd be in the library Charlie?" Amy said, now a bit miffed with herself that she hadn't been somewhere else, just to annoy her boyfriend.
"No of course not…" Charlie said wary that he'd get a punch off Amy; she was small but surprisingly strong for it.
"Actually, can I just point out that it was my fault Charlie bet on your position in the TARDIS. I asked him where he thought you'd be and he said that you'd be in here. Then he said 'I'll bet you £5 that she's in the library'. So now I owe him money. Which I don't have."
"It's ok though mate, you don't have to. It was just a game."
"THE GAME!" Amy yelled [a.n sorry readers]
"Damn. Why must you do that every time I mention games?"
"It's funny to see your face drop every time you lose The Game."
"'The Game'? Sorry, is this a joke you two share or something?" The Doctor asked looking slightly confused at why Amy had yelled 'The Game' and Charlie had been disappointed about this. The two twenty-somethings stood staring at The Doctor with looks on their faces that told the confused Time Lord that this 'game' wasn't a joke between the two of them.
"The Game, Doctor, began when you were born and it ends when you die. You are always playing The Game. So you, unfortunately, have been playing it for 904 years. And luckily for you, you've only lost it once in 904 years." Explained Amy. She was getting good at explaining The Game she realised.
"Hang on Amy, you just said it twice. Surely I've lost it three times now?"
"No, you see. Once you lose or think about The Game you cannot lose it for another thirty minutes."
"Ahh, I see! Well, make sure never to say it again!"
