A/N: Okay, here comes the next chapter. Just because my little Kimmi McDonald wanted me to hurry up and write it. So Kim this is for you. Enjoy!
The rain was starting to pour down upon the town. Screams could be heard from the old house on the hill. People hurried inside, to their houses. Desperate to take shelter, for none of them wanted to be around the streets when strange things could be witnessed at the old house. Strange things that would often lead into the town, sightings of two people. A mother and son looking for their long lost family members. It was said that if it rained on the 19th day of August, then that night the Parker ghosts would leave their family home and join the people there. Searching, simply searching and letting nothing escape their anger. For the pair of them still believed that it was the town's people whom separated them from their family, all of one hundred years ago, one cold and rainy night on August 19th .
One particular young man had resulted to simply sitting on the inside window sill, staring out into the dark streets, determined to see if the whole story was true. Would there really be ghosts around? That much he doubted. If there was one thing he wasn't convinced about was the stupid stories that the townsfolk made up about that house. All because it had been empty for a hundred years after the family living there, or what was left of them, disappeared in the middle of the night.
Both the Doctor and Amy, still hand in hand, came across the small town. The Doctor seemed rather amused by the fact that the town was deserted and didn't even seem to have noticed it had started to rain, never mind the fact that it was lashing down almost drowning both himself and Amelia Pond.
"Doctor! I'm cold and I'm wet. Can we please go somewhere else" Amy complained to him as her hazel eyes scanned the area around her. There seemed to be nothing here. Nothing at all. It was then that her eyes fell upon the old house on the hill. It looked rather creepy, like it hadn't been lived in for years. For a few seconds Amy was sure that she saw a face of a little boy peering out of the window upstairs, yet once she blinked he had gone.
The Doctor simply turned his head to look at her, about to ask her what she was going on about being all cold and wet, when he noticed her dripping wet from head to foot. It was only then that he realised that he too was soaked to the skin. He felt both his hearts triple in speed. A wet Amy Pond, she just looked amazing. He couldn't tear his eyes away from her. It took all the strength in him to refrain from grabbing hold of her, pulling her towards him and kissing her forcefully on the lips. Those soft, beautiful pale lips of the gorgeous, wet Amy Pond were calling to him.
Amy just widened her eyes and stared at him. "Doctor? You listening to me?" Amy questioned him, almost certain that she wouldn't get an answer from him.
"Yes, course I am listening you want to... to... sorry what did you say I wasn't listening" the Doctor grinned. How could he listen to her when she looked that gorgeous. Just standing there next him in the rain, holding onto his hand with hers. Holding onto his hand! The Doctor glanced down at their hands for a mere seconds before looking back at her face. He could see her lips moving, probably repeating what she was saying. Only he couldn't focus. This was not a good thing. He had to stop thinking about her like this. If he wasn't careful it would get him into serious trouble. One again his mouth opened to say something, something he only hoped would answer her question.
"What are you two doing out there. Get inside! You are going to get yourselves killed if you don't get inside. Come on in" came a female voice from behind him.
The Doctor spun around and noticed a woman gesturing for them to both enter her home. Deciding that he needed to find out what she had meant by it all, plus Amy really had to get changed out of those wet clothes before he lost all control.
The two of them hurried over and entered the house of the woman. It was so warm and cosy. The Doctor instantly felt welcomed by the house, which was rather strange. He sat down upon the chair nearest the fire, in order to warm himself up. Since he had now realised just how cold he really was.
"Don't you want get changed from those wet clothes, sir. My husband has plenty of clothes for you to change into" came the reply of the woman
The Doctor simply shook his head slightly "No, really I am fine. Don't worry about me. I'm the Doctor by the way, not sir. Please don't call me sir! Although if you don't mind she could do with a change of clothes. Don't want to have her turning into an ice warrior" he said gesturing over to Amy. He could see her standing there shivering.
"Yes, yes of course. The bathroom is first on the right and I will lay out some clothes for you on my bed which is the next room along. You go on up ahead dear. Feel free to use the shower. There is a towel on the side of the bath that you can use"
"Thank you" came Amy's reply as she hurried up the stairs of the house. The bathroom was almost immaculate. She reached out and turned the shower on. The water that flowed out was nice and warm. The read head quickly removed her wet clothes and jumped into the warm shower. The heat of the water almost instantly warmed up her skin and she felt so much warmer. The young red headed girl was sure that if she stayed in it forever it most defiantly wouldn't be long enough.
She heard faint footsteps coming up the stairs, which then seemed to die out a disappear into the room next door. Something that Amy could only assume was the kind woman who had let them into her home to change and all that. After all she did say she would set out some clothes for her. Yet just a few moments later another set of footsteps came up the stairs. Amy spun her head around to look at the door before leaping out of the shower and grabbing the towel to wrap it around her. The door handle turned and Amy swallowed. What if it was that woman's husband? It was only when she heard voice outside the door that her suspicions were cleared and she found the courage to get back into the shower again.
"What are you doing, Doctor? If that is even you name. That red head is still in there. Sorry I don't know her name" came the voice of the woman again. She must have left the room next door and noticed the Doctor about to walk into the bathroom.
"Its Amy. Amy Pond and I only need to speak to her for a moment. She..." now what did he say to her. How did he get into the bathroom without her questioning him and thinking well the Doctor wasn't sure exactly. The it struck him, after all she was wearing her engagement ring on her finger, or even if she wasn't it wouldn't make much of a difference he could always say it was back in the house. "...she is my fiancé. So I think that permits me to enter. Don't you!"
Amy swallowed. Did he just call himself her fiancé? Surely she had miss heard him. She glanced down at her hand. The engagement ring glistening on her ring finger. The one time she had decided to actually put the ring on. The first time since travelling with the Doctor and he went and said that. Was it coincidence? She didn't know, maybe he genuinely needed an excuse and had previously noticed that she was wearing an engagement ring? Amy couldn't be sure. Still there was no use pondering on it all. It wasn't like he could see anything but her silhouette through the shower curtain.
The Doctor knocked upon the door, opening it a crack as he did so. "Can I come in?" he enquired.
"Yeah, sure" came the reply from inside.
He swallowed and walked inside closing the door behind him, he could see her silhouette behind the curtain and couldn't help staring at her. It was strange how you could stare at just a black shape of a person for so long and know exactly what she looked like, picture every single one of her features. Her head soon popped out around the side of the curtain. "Was there anything in particular that you wanted?"
"Yes, sorry. I was just thinking. You what I get like when I am thinking. Anyway, basically yes, what I was I saying? Yes that is right. Firstly if anyone around here asks I am your fiancé, weird yes I know but still its something we are going to have to live with I will explain later if you need me to, but for now just go along with it. Back to the point. There is something strange going on around here. Something I think we are being kept from. You haven't noticed anything strange have you?"
"Doctor! I have seen what you have seen, the only different thing that my eyes have looked at are the inside of this shower and there nothing out of the ordinary about that"
"I guess I will see you downstairs then. Don't be to long. I get bored talking to that woman one my own. Besides it will save me having to explain things to you later" with those words the Doctor left the bathroom, leaving Amy to her own devices.
A/N: Okay so I noticed a few mistakes in my last chapter after I had loaded it up and now I am sure all the ones in here have been corrected I apologise for any that I have missed.
