"So that wasn't too bad was it, eh Doctor?" Donna said hesitantly as She stepped back into the TARDIS and turned back seeing the Doctor's's look of relief to be back in the TARDIS. She braced herself for the comments that the Doctor was clearly thinking, Donna could tell by the glare she was given. The Doctor closed the doors behind him, threw off his coat onto the railings and ran up to the console clicking a few buttons quickly with a look of deep thought on his face, I tentatively stepped closer.
"Doctor?" I asked slightly worried that my mother had gotten to him, After all she was very rude to him and I think the final straw for him was her threatening to break his TARDIS if she finds him bringing more trouble to Earth, After that comment it was my cue to wrap everything up even though only gramps deserved our goodbyes, I could tell gramps would tell my mother a thing or two when we left anyway so even more the reason to leave.
"Yes Donna?" The Doctor replied lightly, dashing around the console fiddling with switches and wires, Donna slowly moved next to him, sighing she gently touched his arm, stopping him and making him look at her, she ignored how simply touching his arm made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
"Doctor," she paused taking a breath. "I hope what my mother said isn't affecting you I know how she can be and I know the feelings you can get in result of those insults" Donna's voice was steady, calm and patient a mirror of the exact opposite of what was happening inside her right now, her heart was beating faster and she really,really didn't want the Doctor to be upset, not on her mothers behalf but on hers, her biggest fear is becoming her mother when she's older she didn't want the Doctor dumping her off on some alien planet for him to not return to her, She couldn't bare not travelling with him, She wasn't quite sure why or when she started feeling so attached to the Doctor, but she hoped it wouldn't slap her in the face in the end.
"No, Donna those insults are nothing but an occupational hazard when coming to greet parents of humans!" He grinned, "Alien spawn, Martian man, freak, psychopath, mad man with a box," He paused pretending to think before spurting out the most embarrassing insult her mother had shot at him, not embarrassing to him but to Donna, " Ohhhh what was that one thing she said now.. " Donna knew exactly what he was going to say and glared, blushing "No it all-good for nothing- smarty pants who stole my daughters heart with nothing but a plastic screwdriver and a little box to call home, practically a homeless person in a wooden crate"
"Y-you didn't steal my heart" Donna protested even though deep down she knew it was a lie, The last time she felt the way she did about the Doctor was, well never, no one male has ever been just a mate before anything else, all the men she'd got to know friend wise were either older men or gay men, all the others were wanting one thing and one thing only, sex, but the Doctor wasn't like that, he was her friend first, and probably the only thing he'd ever be really, I mean who would date her with her bright ginger hair, especially a high ranking Gallifreyan,Timelord like the Doctor.
The Doctor smiled, raising his eyebrows, pushing a red strand of hair from her face to behind her ear, "That stutter tells me otherwise" The Doctor stated quietly leaning down to press his lips onto her own, cupping her face, she instantly melted into the kiss by wrapping her arms around his neck effectively pressing them together, his hands rested lightly on her hips, when they broke apart the Doctor held her to him while getting his own breath back, which was quicker and easier for him having two hearts and a secondary bypass system, Donna closed her eyes with the feel of the Doctors arms around her, rubbing her back.
When Donna awoke she was laying in her bed, she blinked remembering what must have been a dream, a beautiful dream, saddened she threw back the covers only to find she was in her day to day clothes not her nightie she usually wears to sleep in, quickly she hopped out of bed and quietly went to find the Doctor hoping for the love of Daleks that what she remembers was not a dream but reality, she really hoped it happened.
She found the Doctor humming happily to a song that was playing on the TARDIS intercom, it sounded like an intergalactic space radio or something, when the Doctor saw her emerge he grinned and walked over to her, wrapping her in his arms and hugged her tightly.
"How are you feeling Earthgirl?" He whispered. She blinked, it wasn't a dream at all, she let out a big breath she didn't know she was holding in relief.
"Like I've just woken up from the best dream ever and my dream then became reality" The Doctor grinned again and kissed her forehead. "Seriously I woke up and I thought it was a dream before I threw back the covers and saw I was fully dressed,Even shoes." She looked to him raising her eyebrows.
"Well I didn't want to wake you up!" the Doctor protested.
"More like you didn't want to be slapped for undressing me!" she stuck her tongue out when the Doctor took on the thought and was speechless for a rare second.
"W-Well that too!, but you were so peaceful and you were already tired enough without being disturbed"
"Well, I wouldn't mind waking up to you undressing me" She said before she could stop herself, it was the truth but not for the Doctor to hear, at least not right now anyway.
"Oh really now, " The Doctor chuckled. "I'll keep that in mind for when the time approaches" The cheeky bastard winked, he winked. My most embarrassingmoment in the history of embarrassing moments so far and he winked.
"Oi, less of the winky face you'll get stuck like it, Where too spaceman?" Donna asked looking towards the console.
"Weeeellll, I was thinking Victorian England, summer, beach, fish and chips and ice cream mhmm" The Doctor was lost in his train of thought until Donna playfully hit him in his arm.
"Planets to spaceman, I said alright lets go" Donna sing song'd The Doctor playfully grinned and ran around the console pressing buttons and flicking levers, Donna watched on shaking her head.
"Victorian England, here we come, Allons-y!" The Doctor exclaimed, looking over to Donna who was laughing like a mad woman while holding on as the TARDIS was in flight.
Huh, that was a warming thought, The Doctor realised with a smile of realisation.
'A mad man with a blue box, A mad woman along side'
