What a lovely response I've gotten from you lot – so kind!
Anyway, enjoy part two and same disclaimer applies.
The sun beat through the window of the suite that Donna, Jenny and herself were sharing, waking Rose gently. She had not spoken to The Doctor since supper the night before and that was simply 'pass the butter please' and nothing else. Jenny had caused upset with the two of them, they knew that the attraction was there but both were a little gun shy after being hurt so badly in their previous relationships. Rose's ex boyfriend Jimmy had slept with her friend and ran off; whereas The Doctor had enjoyed a short lived relationship a year ago with a French woman named Reinette who had decided that seeing as The Doctor was monogamous – was not the love she was looking for.
Bitch.
Rose almost drew back under the covers but quickly remembered where she was. She sat up; allowing her blanket to drop to her waist exposing her bright orange bra. "Fuck yeah Disneyland!"
"That's the spirit Rose!" Jenny stood there with a tray of croissants and some tea – a sheepish grin on her face. "I'm so sorry about yesterday, my mum has a new boyfriend – and I know it's not an excuse- but he's around the same age as you and I just assumed. I'm so sorry I embarrassed you."
Rose's cold features melted as Jenny set the tray on her lap. "I'm sorry too; I didn't mean to seem so cold – I'm not usually like that but your question threw me off kilter a little. I honestly didn't know how to respond; anyway what's done is done and cannot be undone."
She shrugged and took a bite from her croissant. "Happy birthday by the way! The Doctor didn't tell me until right before we left last night; so I thought we'd do something fun. I heard that every day at two you can go and get a princess makeover – now I wasn't sure if you'd be too old for it or not but I've always fancied being Cinderella for a day. They had dresses you can take picture in too."
Jenny grinned. "Actually, I'd love to be Rapunzel, is Auntie Donna gonna join us too?"
"Bloody well right I am." Donna replied, emerging from the bathroom. "Got this gorgeous mop of ginger that would go well with a mermaid fin don't ya think?"
Rose laughed as the phone rang; Jenny answering it. He watched as a surprised grin spread across her face and she gasped with excitement. Saying thank you she hung up and squealed. "That was Goofy wishing me a happy birthday! Goofy – can you believe it!"
Rose got up from her bed and stretched. She wandered over to the door to the room; snagging a shirt from her open suitcase before answering it. "Morning Doctor."
"Morning Rose." His ears tinged red as he smiled; avoiding her eyes as he walked in and embraced his daughter. "Morning darling, happy birthday!"
"Thanks dad." Jenny smiled. "Hey Goofy called me this morning and wished me a happy birthday."
"So I'm guessing that you already ate breakfast so what ride did you want to do first?" He let go of Jenny and sat on the small couch in the room. "Or did you want to go shopping?"
"I want to go and see Cinderella's Castle first!"

The girls had split away from Jack and The Doctor at one; heading back to Cinderella's Castle to get their Princess makeovers. Rose paid for the sessions (including outright purchasing Jenny's Rapunzel dress) and walked into the hallway. Each of them got into their respective princess' line and waited. Rose pulled out her mobile and logged onto Facebook. "I am so logging it at Disneyland!" She muttered. She scrolled through her newsfeed; finding something curious.
Doctor Noble: I'm doing it tonight under the fireworks. Wish me luck!
Frowning she put her phone in her pocket, there was only two girls left now. He must have gotten something special for her birthday. Finally her turn. She sat down in front of a Cinderella and smiled. "Hello."
"Hello princess, what's your name?" Cinderella replied, pulling her makeup brushes back into her lap.
"Erm, Rose." She said, closing her eyes and allowing the artist to do her work.
Fifteen minute later her hair was pinned up with a sky blue ribbon and her makeup was the most gorgeous she had ever seen it. She hurried over to 'Belle's Closet' where she handed over her ticket and took her rented dress into the fitting rooms. She slipped out of her soft pink Tommy Bahamas dress and stepped into the rippling blue silk Cinderella dress. Giggling, Rose twirled in from of the mirror all the while wondering idly what The Doctor would say. She snapped a quick picture in the mirror and uploaded it to her Facebook. She left her dress with the attend and outside the dressing room and walked up to meet Donna and Jenny, both of whom were giggling. Donna looked gorgeous with a sparkling green fin, seashell top and starfish in her hair; Jenny looked fresh out of a fairy tale. In place of her short blonde hair a golden braid pinned with flowers fell large down her back, a lilac dress and soft purple slippers on her feet. She ran to Rose and hugged her clear around the middle. "Thank you so much Rose! I will treasure it forever."
Rose hugged her with equal affection. "I thought maybe we'd go to Louis Vuitton and buy you a handbag too. Unless of course you wanna come with Donna and me to Hermes?'
Her brown eyes sparkled and she nodded enthusiastically. "Yes please!"
Donna waved at The Doctor and Jack as they approached. "Over here guys!"
"Wow Ariel you look fantastic." Jack said with a laugh. "Jenny darling you look wonderful."
"Thanks Uncle Jack." Jenny replied, fingering the fine silk of her dress. "You like it daddy?"
"Gorgeous sweetheart." The Doctor nodded his eyes yet to stray from Rose."Rose, you look... incredible."
"Thanks." She murmured. "I feel like a princess."
"Well, we only have the dresses for two hours so let's go and make the most of it." Donna said, taking Jack's hand and running off toward Pixie Hollow, Jenny close behind.
Rose – feeling bold – took The Doctors hand. "Shall we?"
"My princess I would follow you anywhere." He replied – also feeling bold and placed a delicate kiss on her hand. He looked back up to her face; smiling softly and pulling her into his embrace. He grinned into her hair. "Thank you Rose."
"For what?" She looked up. "You brought me here."
"For being you." He swiftly pecked her lips and turned away before she could see the spatter of crimson on his cheeks.
Still holding her hand, he led her toward the rest of the group.

"That was an amazing meal." Jack said patting his stomach. "Thanks Doc."
The Doctor had taken everyone out for a meal at a lovely local restaurant, a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower from their table. "Yes it was. We should be back in time for the fireworks."
Oh right, that's when he was going to give Jenny her gift. "Did you want to change out of your Rapunzel dress?"
"Not really." Jenny replied quietly. "Can I keep it on?"
"Of course, you don't have to change." Rose smiled. She really loved that dress.
The group walked toward the centre of the park where a large crowd had gathered, eagerly awaiting the late night display. Donna stopped and wrapped her arms around Jenny's shoulders. She knew what this night was for her brother. She looked over to him and smiled as he stopped with Rose; his hand not leaving hers. Donna had watched the couple fall steadily and obliviously in love with each other over the last few months, seeing how her eyes followed his back as he walked away and the way that his hand lingered on her hip whenever he had the chance.
Tonight was the night he would do it. Tonight he would tell Rose Tyler that he was hopelessly in love with her and hoped that she would feel the same. Donna was always telling him that he should go for it; that she knew Rose reciprocated. He pulled her close as the first rocket exploded, sending sparkles like stars cascading across the sky. "Rose, there's something I need to tell you."
Rose turned her head; her eyes alit with wonder. "Yes Doctor?"
"Rose I..." He ran his hand through his hair with his right hand, and then fiddled with the string on his Hollister hoodie. "See the thing is that about two months ago I realized that I was in love with you and I really mfph-"
Rose would hear no more. She spun toward him, burying her free hand in his luscious chocolate hair and pulling him in for a kiss right out of a fairytale. The whole world stopped around them; time slowing and all noise ceased as the couple embraced, lips touching tenderly and love shining in both their eyes. They pulled away slowly grinning at each other as their breath mingled from the closeness.
Rose giggled a little pulling them back to reality. "Wow."
The Doctor nodded. "I know. So can we... you know... be a thing?"
"Of course you silly man! I'd love nothing more." Rose replied, blushing. "I love you Doctor."
"I love you too Rose." The Doctor replied. "And my real name's Danny. Danny Noble."
"Danny Noble." Rose tried out. "Mind if I still call you Doctor?"
His response was to kiss her again.
