Chapter Two: She Doesn't Like You

Jackie looked at her daughter - concern.

"What do you mean, love?" She asked.

"The Doctor," Rose's voice quivered. "He and that Martha woman…they seem to be…" she shook her head furiously, refusing to say what she was thinking out loud. "Maybe I'm seeing things," she sighed. "It has been a long day, and…" Rose felt someone standing behind her and turned around, it was the Human Doctor.

He grinned at her sheepishly as he rocked on the balls of his heels, very Doctor-esque-like, for a split second Rose thought he was the Doctor until she remembered the real Doctor was standing just a few yards away talking to that Martha person.

"Get. The. Hell. Away. From. Me." Rose said, with a tight smile on her face.

The Human Doctor's grin quickly faded away, he stuffed his hands into his blue trousers pockets and stared at her. "What did I do wrong?" He asked, meekly.

"Rose Marion Tyler." Jackie replied, raising her voice slightly. "You apologized to…er…um Handy at once."

Rose rolled her eyes and huffed, turning her nose up as if she was a six years old who didn't get the right breed of pony for her birthday.

Martha, who was observing the interaction between Rose and the Human Doctor, frowned and shook her head. "I don't think it's going to work, Doctor." She said, gesturing towards Rose and his clone.

The Doctor turned around and glanced at his former companion, she had her back turned towards his clone, pretending to be interested in the ceiling as his clone looked longingly at her. He rubbed the back on his neck and sighed.

"Well it sounded good on paper." He replied. "I thought if I gave him to Rose…"

"Doctor, you're making it sound like you're giving away a puppy," Martha interjected. "He is a real human being, with real feelings and a mind of his own, why don't you let him decide what he wants to do?" The Doctor looked at Martha and saw the tears of compassion threatened to spill from her eyes. "Will you do it for me…please?"

He nodded; wondering when was the last time he had said no to her.

"I promise to talk to him after the party," he vowed. "In the mean time, I want to see you eat another sandwich, or do I have to call Francine?"

"You wouldn't." She dared him.

He made a big production out of pulling his mobile out his pocket and raised his eyebrows as he flipped it opened, ready to press Francine's number on speed dial.

"Oh wouldn't I?"

Martha made a face and headed towards the table, to get another sandwich.

Rose watched as Martha passed by and quickly made her way to the Doctor's side.

"Rose," he smiled, at the young woman. "Isn't it great to see everyone?"

"I suppose." She said, shrugging her shoulders.

Rose was happy to learn that Jack was alive and still the biggest flirt on this side of the universe and seeing Sarah Jane was okay and Mickey…well they worked together at Torchwood, in the parallel universe, so seeing him was no biggie, besides it was the Doctor she had dreamed of seeing. The Doctor and his magnificent TARDIS, and the wonderful new exciting adventures they would have together, gallivanting across time and space – just the two of them.

Rose and her Doctor, the way it was meant to be.

"So how's life been treating you Rose?" He asked.

Before Rose had gotten a chance to tell him how lonely and miserable she was without him, Jack and Mickey pulled him away to settle a silly argument between them and the women. Donna and Sarah Jane wanted to the party to have a theme, where as Jack and Mickey didn't think it was necessary.

"Well…" the Doctor began, as they looked at him expectantly. "I guess having a theme isn't so bad…" Donna and Sarah Jane high fived each other, "but… just sitting around is nice…" he scratched the back of his head, and turned to Martha, for help. "Martha, what do you think?"

"I'm eating." She smirked, taking a huge bite out of her sandwich.

From across the room, the Human Doctor looked on feeling left out.

Martha piled several more sandwiches on her plate and walked over to him.

He looked at her with caution as she approached him with a friendly smile.

"Hello," Martha greeted. "Mind if I join you?"

He shrugged his shoulders. "It's his ship." He replied.

She nodded in agreement and offered him a sandwich. "You must be hungry."

He was about to lie, when his stomach answered for him. "What was that?" He asked in surprise. "I'd never…I mean…he never…"

"It's normal for a human's stomach to growl to remind us it's time to eat." Martha assured him.

He accepted a sandwich and took a bite and chewed it slowly, savoring the taste.

"I can't imagined how you are feeling right now," she said, "it must be strange to look like the Doctor, to know about everyone in this room yet you are a complete stranger to them."

"I don't know where I belong." He admitted, looking at her. "It's like how you felt being stuck in 1913…Martha, I am really sorry how the way I…um John Smith…" he sighed. "I'm not him, am I?"

"In a way you are, but you're not if you get my meaning."

"I do." He gave her a faint smile. "May I have another sandwich?" Martha held out the plate. "She doesn't like you, you know."

"Who?"

"Rose, she thinks you are trespassing on her property."

Martha glanced at the young woman, who was twirling her hair and gazing adoringly at the Doctor, and laughed – surprising the Human Doctor.

"I needed a good laugh after the day we have had." She explained, smiling brightly.

The Doctor heard Martha's laughed and quickly turned his head – he was not amused to see her talking to his clone.

Jack placed a hand on his shoulder. "Relax Doc, Martha's just being herself." He reminded the Time Lord. "Jealousy doesn't look good on you."

Rose hit her mother on the forearm. "That's it!" She squealed, jumping up and down. "That's it!"

"Rose what are you on about?" Jackie asked.

"Martha and the-the fake Doctor, oh mum why didn't I think of it sooner?" She beamed.

"Think of what, love?"

"If I could get them together…oh this is too perfect!" She giggled as the wheels in her brains began to churn.
