"OK...weeeellll it all began after we visited Agatha Christie," the Doctor began soon to be cut off by Wilf.
"Agatha Christie? As in THE Agatha Christie?" Wilf asked astonished as the Doctor nodded.
"Anyway...we had just solved a murder case and dropped her off in a hotel," he begun producing a book and handing it to Wilf as he pointed at it to indicate that was the book and the mystery that they solved. Wilf nodded before he begun listening to the Doctor begin to explain his story before he suddenly realised. "Why am I telling you this when I could show you...not everything," the Doctor said quickly as he blushed some more receiving a hearty chuckle from Wilf.
Standing up from the sofa the Doctor walked over to the fireplace, tapping the wall the TARDIS which produced a hologram in the middle of the room and then produced a glum hum as she rifled through the scenes the Doctor needed who thanked her. A wide-eyed Wilf leaned forward so his elbows rested on his knees, "oh wow." Nodding enthusiastically the Doctor sat down on the floor near to the hologram watching wistfully as the figures of him and Donna walking into the console room. Wilf smiled broadly as he watched his grand-daughter laugh along with the Time-lord next to her.
"I can't believe we just met AGATHA CHRISTIE!" Donna laughed as she sat on the jump seat watching the Doctor dance around the console.
"Aaaannnddd we solved the mystery of what happened to her," the Doctor explained listening to the laughter die down. Peering over to the now silent Donna the Doctor gave her a questioning look. Breaking into a huge grin Donna jumped off of her seat with a squeal.
"Oh my god and we did!" She laughed as she clung onto the railings as the Doctor put the TARDIS into the vortex. As the shaking stopped Donna bounded over to the Doctor grabbing onto his arm," just think we're the only two people...well person and alien to know what happened to Agatha Christie."
"Technically not..." The Doctor begun.
"Don't spoil it, spaceman!" Donna interrupted as the Doctor shut his gob.
"Fine, fine whatever you say! You were brilliant though!" He exclaimed as they walked into the kitchen.
"I wasn't..." Donna begun soon to be cut off by the Doctor who had gone and grabbed her hands. Taking her over to sit on one of the seats before kneeling in front of her.
"Yes you were. YOU Donna Noble, you are brilliant and don't let anyone tell you otherwise," he smiled a he tucked a strand of hair that had fallen out to be placed behind her ear.
"Thank you, spaceman," Donna whispered quietly, smiling a shy smile," how was I brilliant?" She asked cheekily as she once met the Doctor's gaze.
"Where do I begin?" He pondered as he wiped his thumbs over her knuckles," I'll give you three. One you helped Agatha Christie believe in herself, two you're Donna Noble, that should be enough and three," he whispered as he inched closer to look her in the eyes. His lips inches away from hers, unintentionally," and three you saved my life. I didn't really thank you so, thank you."
"You're welcome, Martian," she whispered as his gaze lowered to her lips.
"The shock wasn't you kissing me," he begun as he flickered his gaze back up to her eyes.
"Oh."
"The shock was that I realised," he swallowed the lump in his throat.
"Realised what?" Donna whispered near his lips.
"That...that I like you...a lot," he said finally as he pressed his lips to hers. Pulling back after a second to gage her reaction he smiled sheepishly.
"I like you a lot to, spaceman. Sod just 'mates'," Donna whispered back to him before she pulled him back to kiss him again. Smiling and giggling into the kiss, the Doctor pulled her closer.
The hologram fizzled out, revealing to Wilf a dreamy Time-lord sat like a child on the rug. Lifting his gaze up to meet Wilf's who's eyes were sparkling and who's smile was as wide as his face. Smiling sadly at Donna's grandfather the Doctor cleared his throat," not really planned more of a spur of the moment thing...I really think towards the end she started believing that she was brilliant. Still is but she doesn't realize it. I need you to do me a favour Wilf. Please?" The Doctor exclaimed as he looked expectantly at the looked up to the younger man.
"Sure. Anything for you," Wilf smiled reassuringly at the eager looking man sat on the floor.
"Tell Donna everyday at least once. Phone her if you have to just to tell her...Tell her that she's brilliant because I can't," he looked almost desperate as he gazed into Wilf's eyes, "please?" He was pleading now.
"Sure...Sure. Of course," Wilf exclaimed in a reassuring tone. Of course he'd tell his grand-daughter that she was brilliant, she wasn't anyting but brilliant and even Sylvia had been more tentative towards her," right what's the next part of the story?"
"Proposal."
