Chapter 2
It was 9am, Rose had been awake most of the night, the excitement had overtaken her mind. She was like a little kid getting excited about Santa Claus coming with the Christmas presents on Christmas Eve. As she was wide awake, she decided to make the Doctor breakfast.
She got out of bed and toddled along to the kitchen and prepared a banana smoothie and marmalade on toast. This is sure to make him happy Rose thought to herself. Once she had finished in the kitchen, she put the food on a tray and walked along to the Doctor's room. She knocked on the door before walking in to a sleeping Doctor who was curled up in a ball with his hair flying out in all directions. Smiling to herself, she placed the tray on the bedside table before gently waking the Doctor up.
"Doctor, wakey wakey rise and shine" She said in a chirpy yet quiet voice.
"Mm-hmm, I'll be up in a banana" He replied back in a muffled and sleepy tone of voice.
"In a what? Come on I've made you breakfast, a banana smoothie and some marmalade on toast, just the way you like it with no crusts on" She said back to him.
"Ooh smoothie, yummy!" He shouted as he shot up from his sleep.
She handed him the tray before saying: "So, sleep well?"
"Oh yes! Had a dream that I went swimming in marmalade, it was fantastic! You?" The Doctor said happily.
"I didn't sleep much to be honest; I'm too excited about decorating!" She said whilst the Doctor buried his head in his hands.
"Just as well somebody is" He murmured.
"What's that?" She said back to him
"Nothing, I was just saying that I'm excited too." He said, scratching his ear.
"Really! Well get a wriggle on, the sooner we get started the better! I'm just gonna have a shower and get dressed, I'll see you in a bit" She said as she was walking out of his bedroom.
The Doctor sighed before getting back to eating his breakfast. He quickly ate the toast and quickly drank the rest of the smoothie before getting changed into his infamous brown pinstripe suit. Once dressed he walked out of his room and down to the TARDIS control room.
Soon after, Rose came skipping down the corridor before enthusiastically shouting "Okay let's go!"
The Doctor then shouted: "Oh excrement! What would you know Rose, the TARDIS has lost the co-ordinates to get to the Powell Estate, looks like we might just have to go elsewhere for the paint. I'm sorry." The Doctor stood there whilst fiddling with his ear, trying not to make eye contact with Rose, he could tell she knew it was a lie but anything was worth a try to keep away from Jackie.
"You know what Doctor, you may be a genius but you're the most terrible liar know to man. Now if you don't get a move on, not only will you be getting a slap of my mum, but you'll get one off me too. Comprende?" Rose said forcefully.
The Doctor was gobsmacked... completely lost for words. He eventually replied "Err yes, of course."
15 minutes later
"Okay we're here, let's get this over with." He said
Rose glared at him before making her way to the doors. Pulling and pushing she said "What the hell is wrong with these doors? Doctor, why aren't they opening? Have you planned this, if I found out you have I will knock your block off!"
"Do I look as if I planned this, last thing I wanna be doing is repairing a bloody broken door. Do you really think I would stoop that low? I mean I hate your mother but God!"
Rose sighed before saying "No, I don't think you would stoop that low but you did try to lie to me earlier, can you blame me for thinking this?"
"I suppose not, but that was only a joke...Haha! I've got an idea! The TARDIS buys paint in bulk, we could look at the colours she has and use a few cans of her paint, she won't mind. I'm sure she has some pink and blue paint for my Rose" He said chirpily.
Rose smiled and went to hug him before muffling the words "Thank You" into his jacket.
He broke the hug before saying "But first, we need to get the place sorted out a bit, you know move the furniture out of the way, put dust sheets on it, that sort of stuff."
"Oh yeh didn't think of that, come on then!" She said before rushing off down to her bedroom.
1 hour later
"One, two, three" She said whilst trying to lift the mattress off the bed. They stumbled out of her bedroom and into the storage room where they dumped the mattress.
"Phew!" The Doctor said, looking at his hands in amazement. He didn't realise how strong he must have been, especially for his age!
He wandered back into her room, where he noticed a little pink book lying on the floor.
"Ooo what's this?" He said squeakily.
He picked the book up, noticing the words Rose's Diary on the front. Should I or shouldn't I he thought to himself. Temptation became too much and before he knew it he was reading the first page of her diary.
January 1st 2010
Well Hello again! Happy New Year!
Had a great day today, the Doctor took me to 34th Century Milan! God the amount of shopping malls there was just amazing! Now I know why they call it the fashion capital. Anyway we went into this shop and the Doctor bought me this lovely necklace, all different coloured flowers filled with diamantes on a gold neck let. Aww he was sweet! Everything was great, until we got chased by the some strange specie of monster called the Bravomangoes! But anyway, we got back to the TARDIS safe and sound and watched Shrek in 3D. OMG the Doctor looked lush in 3D glasses, I mean he looks lush anyway but in glasses... phwoar! I'm surprised I didn't fall of my chair! I was staring at him for ages I'm surprised he didn't notice, but you know him, loves the attention deep down. Anyway I'm now making a list of New Year's Resolutions and the first ones going on this page, even though I should be saying it to his face but give me time. Doctor, I love you.
The Doctor pondered over her last words, was she serious he thought to himself. Just as he was about to turn the page again, Rose walked in and saw him red handed with her diary.
"What do you think you're doing?" She shouted in a shocked and upset tone of voice.
The Doctor was speechless, how was he going to get himself out of this one.
