Chapter 2

When Sarah finally worked up the courage to get hold of the Doctor, she was scared but surprisingly intrigued to see how he would react to the news. Would he he happy, content since losing Gallifrey, would he be ecstatic that he was no longer the last of his kind? She could only hope.

As she dialled the number the doctor gave her in case of severe emergencies and she urgently needed his help, she didn't know if this situation fell under they circumstances,.

although she thought this is probably one of the biggest emergencies in her life.

"Sarah!" he replied a little to happily when he answered.

"Hello doctor, I was wondering if you could pop round later so I could talk to you about something"she tried to keep her voice as neutral as she possibly could.

"Of course Sarah, is there something wrong?" he replied suspiciously, he could tell that her voice was too well controlled and that something was eating at her.

"No well yeah but its nothing to get worried about just come round later please?" she pleaded to him, she couldn't believe her self pleading to a man even though it was the doctor.

"Sure Sarah I'll be there soon!"

"Thanks doctor see you soon" she tried to sound cheery in the conversation till the very end.

About an hour later Sarah was woken from her trance, she'd been in since the phone call, by the sounds of the TARDIS materialising in her front room. She stood up trying to brace herself for his usual cheery, happy arrival.

He popped his head out of the TARDIS to check he had the correct house because you know what the TARDIS can be like, when he notice Sarah and her teary eyed expression ,that she'd had kept for the last 2 days, he destroyed the distance between them to take her in his embrace.

At first Sarah didn't even know she had started crying but now she couldn't stop, she cursed herself for being so weak in front of him.

"Sarah would you like to explain this to me?"

"eh … um mm" she said on a hiccup, still crying from his arrival and her nervousness.

"Sarah, you're scaring me what has happened?!" the doctor managed to say.

"Doctor I'm pregnant!"she said in a sob, he just lifted her off the chair she was occupying and just held her. He was shocked that Sarah had gotten so upset just because she had to tell him that, but at that moment he didn't care he just held her.

When he had calmed Sarah down, he didn't know what to say to her. He was so extactic that he could be a father again but was doubtful that he could be a good father with what he does, the child would be put in daily danger from people wanting to get to him.

"What should we do?" He was broke from his daze with the little whispering voice of Sarah.

"Well what do you want to do? After all its us that will have to carry it for 10 months" he answered trying to break the tension, which was increasingly growing in the room.

"Well I don't know, wait what?! 10 months!" she gasped.

"Yeah if you have a little time lord or lady it'll be in your womb for 10 months, its not that much off a human pregnancy" he was grinning now.

"Yeah but I am human!" now she was smiling, the first time she had smiled in 2 days.

He laughed at this, the tension which was there was nearly all away, but it still had to be discussed.

"No but seriously doctor what are we going to do?" she was back to the nervousness from before.

"Well I would love to be a father again and I know for certain you would be a fabulous mother but … " he stumbled the last part.

"But what doctor?" Sarah's face was full of curiosity for what he was about to say.

"But it would be put in danger most of time just because of me! And I couldn't lose another child Sarah I just couldn't" he said.

"I know doctor I know" this time she held him.

"But think you could go off in the TARDIS whenever your needed and I could stay with it, I couldn't ask you to walk away from what you do, I know the thrill you get from it, I remember the feeling." she finished reminiscing.

"I couldn't just leave without you, if I'd to go then you and my child would go to." he said.

"So we're going to do this?" she replied almost pleadingly.

"Yeah if you want to?" he answered.

"of course doctor, I'd love to have your baby" she said cuddling more into him, and that was the way they spent the rest of the night.
