Gaming
The Doctor was reading. Well, he said reading, he was really watching Amy and Rory play a video game. He didn't know how Rory had got Amy to play, but he'd heard mention of Empresses and insubordinate Centurions. He didn't want to ask.
But watching the two of them play a game competitively was quite amusing. Rory was sitting, leaning forward and staring intently at the game. Amy, on the other hand, was sprawled on the settee. Her feet rested in Rory's lap and she was only half focused on the game at hand.
And she did it again. It was an odd thing. She would periodically just gently push the side of Rory's face with her foot. Not enough to hurt, but it would certainly be distracting. It seemed to be whenever Rory had Amy in his crosshairs Amy would do this. To be fair though, Rory was still winning. It was just enough to let Amy have a few kills.
Amy slipped over, closer to Rory. Just poking him obviously wasn't enough. Of course, she secretly enjoyed playing games with Rory. They were fun and Rory was always a good sport, on the very rare occasions he lost. However, getting favours out of him for doing something she enjoyed was great.
Ever so carefully, she rested her chest against his arm. Sliding her foot up and down his leg, she ever so slowly started kissing his ear. Suddenly, he was losing concentration. She racked up four kills in a row and she finally managed to grab some good weapons. A few more kills and he finally turned to her, looking slightly exasperated.
"Can you stop doing that?"
"Stop what" she replied, her face a mask of pure innocence… So as transparently guilty as a window.
"Stop being so… sexy"
"Well, Rory, that's quite hard to do…"
"We should never have let you meet yourself, I swear"
"So you want me to stop doing… This?" she asked, before planting another kiss on his cheek.
"Ye-yes, yes I do, Amy"
"Really?"
"Really"
"Well then, OK" and she moved back over. This time though, she sat up, straight.
A moment.
Two.
"OK, can you maybe be… a little more sexy?"
"Really, Rory? I thought you didn't want me to be so…" she stopped, grinned and lowered her voice alluringly. "Sexy?"
"Well, I've changed my mind" Another kill for Amy.
"Well, I may be able to see what I can-" Thump! The Doctor had thrown himself down between the two of them, holding a controller and grinning at the pair. A sigh of disappointment escaped her lips. "Do"
"Oh, I haven't played a game in ages" The Doctor said, looking thoroughly like a five year old allowed to play an age inappropriate game with his dad. "Well, a few years. Last time I did, it was really a front for using humans in a war between a race of porcupines and a race of preying mantises" He looked slightly saddened for a second, but then grinned again. "But this one isn't evil!" A serious look. "Is it?"
Sometimes it was hard to keep up with the Doctor. She knew there was something in there that she had to question, but it was currently buried under the general Doctor babble.
"Porcupines?" Rory asked from the Doctors other side. That had been it! As often as she put him down, Amy knew Rory was smart. And brave. And oddly sexy.
"Yes" Off of Rory's odd look, he continued. "Oh, giant porcupines. Giant, alien porcupines. Angry too. Worse than the Sontarans. Who took all their handbags anyway?"
"Doctor, why are you so hyper?"
"Hyper, me? I'm not hyper. I'm calm and relaxed. Cool, even"
Amy and Rory shared knowing looks over the Doctor. Amy turned to the Doctor. At this point she had given up. Between Rory's regained concentration and the Doctor's insane skills, she didn't see the point. Instead, she was just content to help Rory win.
"So, how did that goodbye with River go, Doctor?" The Doctor's controller hit the carpeted floor.
"Umm. Fine. Good. Great. Excellent, even, if you were feeling generous. Which I am. A little. A little generous. Quite. Quite generous" If the Doctor got any redder he might just explode.
"So, did she say -or do- anything… important?"
"Do! What would we do! We just talked! Talked about thing. Nothing going on there. Just friends. Kissing friends"
And the Doctor stopped, mortified.
"You kissed? Did you happen to… Sonic her, at all?"
"Sonic…?" A few seconds of silence. Then the Doctor slowly got up and left. Amy slipped back over to Rory, grinning. He looked surprisingly not happy about time to be intimate. He lent forward and turned the console off before wrapping an arm around her.
"What's up?"
"Maybe you shouldn't tease the Doctor about River."
"Why not, it's all in good fun. And anyway, he deserves it after dragging me around a ship in a wet nightie"
"I don't think he deserves- He did what?"
"It was nothing. Why don't you want me to tease him?"
"Because well, he seems to like River and we don't want him to give up on her because of some teasing"
"You don't want him single"
"What? Of course I don't mind-"
"Even after everything, there's still a tiny part of you that thinks it's him, isn't there?"
"No… Well, really tiny. Miniscule, I'd-" She cut him off with a long, long kiss. It somehow ended with them both lying on the settee, her on top of him, panting.
"It's you, you idiot."
"He's your raggedy Doctor"
"And you're my centurion. But even before that, before you were my centurion, you were my everything. Why do you still have to question that? Stupid"
"I don't know"
"Wanna go another round?"
"On the game?"
"For someone who wants to be a doctor, you can really be dense sometimes"
And she kissed him again.
