~*~*~(Two)~*~*~
The older gentleman sat, bow tie crooked and expression much like that of a frustrated three-year-old. He was trying to complete a rubik cube with one hand, and play his recorder with his other. This led to much unpleasant noise and little productive action.
"Oooh," The Doctor drew of the sound irritatedly as his face scrunched more dramatically. He had dropped the dratted cub and missed that high note again! He sat perched on a bench that held a feeling of déjà vu about it, and he had hoped that the tingling feeling in his brain might inspire him. So far it had not, and by now he was quite convinced that he should have tried for three hands in this regeneration.
He was about to stand to retrieve the infuriating cub from where it had bounced off to, when he found it thrust in his face by an unfamiliar hand.
"Missing this, mate?" it was a woman's voice and he looked up to meet the eyes of a young red-haired woman. Her expression was neutral, though her eyes sparkled curiously at him.
"Why thank you!" The Doctor's own expression quickly turned to a welcoming smile, glad to have a companion in conversation.
She shrugged, shifting her weight to one leg and crossing her arms. "That was a quite the racket you were making. Even the pigeons have been scared off."
The Doctor pouted at her, before being struck by a brilliant idea. "You could assist me!" he proclaimed. Seeing her eyebrows raise quickly and skeptically, he hurriedly added, "Only if you want, of course."
Glancing at her watch, she looked back up to nod, with a slowing growing conspiratorial smile playing on her lips. Grabbing the rubik cube back, she sat on the other side of the bench, hands quickly getting to work on it. The Doctor smiled and started up the song once more, getting it nearly all correct with both his hands free.
And while she didn't complete the cube, nor he perfect the song, they both had a wonderful moment before time pulled them back apart again, at least for now.
A/N: I have decided to continue this series of little stories until I have covered all the Doctors. Thank you to everyone who reviewed, favorited, or followed! You helped inspire me! I'd love more feedback or maybe even a prompt? :) Again, thanks for reading!
