Here you go. The next chapter. :)
The Doctor and Amy had been at Hermione's apartment for around a week, much longer than they had thought they would stay. Even the Doctor didn't mind staying in one place for so long. Hermione had transfigured her double bed. In the one week the Doctor had been there, he had been banned from Gringotts because he tried to sonic the door to one of the vaults. He was also banned from Honeydukes by Amy, Hermione and Harry due to the 'episode' he had after one to many chocolate frogs.
Flashback
"Doctor, I think you've had enough sweets for tonight. STOP CLIMBING ON THE TABLE!" Yelled Hermione who had given up trying to stop the Doctor from eating chocolate due to the sugar high he was now experiencing.
"Nope, can't do that, can't do what, I don't know. Come along Hermy, ooh I like that. I should call you that from now on. It has quite a nice ring to it. Doesn't it?" The Doctor was jumping on the table, leapt to the couch and back to the table again and again.
"Hermy is a horrible nickname, don't you even think about calling me that." She had her wand pointed at his face, stared at him, brought her hand down and retreated out of the main chaos.
"Ughh! Doctor! CALM DOWN!" Amy was exhausted. The Doctor was acting like a 4-year-old child. If this was what a child was like, Amy was sure that she didn't want children. But than again, he was a 900 year old alien so a normal child would probably not act like this.
"Pond, Amelia, Amy. Come along!" The Doctor grabbed her hand and dragged her around the room only to fling her straight into Harry's chest. Unfortunately for Harry, Amy had found his arm, grabbed it and refused to let too was flung around the room. The Doctor pulled out a can of TARDIS blue silly string and began to spray it around Hermione's apartment. Five minutes later the couch, table, TV, mirror most of the celling and most of the walls had been covered with the silly string. The Doctor then began on covering Amy and Harry with the blue string from the seemingly never-ending , who was tired of all the noise the Doctor was making, decided to put up a silencing charm and make some tea. Harry and Amy had both run into the kitchen several times; looking worse each time she had seen either of them. Both Amy and Harry were still covered in the blue string but Amy looked like she had run into and fallen out of several trees. Harry on the other hand ended up looking like he had fallen in a ditch and mud was poured on to due to the Doctor taking the soil from Hermione's plants on the balcony and smeared it all around his face. When Hermione emerged from the safety of the kitchen she saw that the Doctor was still pouring mud on Harry and trying, rather badly, to plait Amy's hair only to get it tangled into a massive knot. Hermione was fed up of all of this so she decided that she would have to stun him though it was mainly for the sanity of Harry and Amy. But due to him being a Time Lord, the spell didn't work on him. It only knocked him out for a couple of minutes. Unfortunately this caused Hermione to be yanked from her haven that was the kitchen by the Doctor, which, due to the sudden movement, caused Hermione to drop her mug. She waved her wand and all of the pieces zoomed into the kitchen and repaired themselves to form a mug.
They decided it would be best for them to just leave the Doctor alone and go to sleep. Eventually the Doctor came off his sugar high and just collapsed on the floorfast asleep. They walked into the living area only to find the Doctor draped across the table, with his upper body lying on the couch. Hermione, Amy and Harry had all tried to wake him but all attempts seemed to fail. After al their efforts the Doctor had moved over slightly and had some how ended up on the floor between the couch and the table after Amy had been a bit too violent trying to shake him awake.
End Flashback
"As lovely as it is here, I think we ought to be going now, don't you?" The Doctor said standing up to head to the door.
"Do you really have to leave now? Asked Hermione.
"I thought that you would come along with me."
"I can't leave Harry here Doctor, he only arrived a week ago. I really can't leave him, after all him being alone brought him here in the first place."
"I thought he could come with us."
"Doctor, I can't go with you now. I've just settled down into normal life, I'm not ready for the adventure and I don't think Harry is either. Come back in a couple months or so. I'll have made my mind up by then."
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why where you so excited to do this before but not now? Was it something I did?"
"No it wasn't. It's just that after hearing the stories of the adventures you both had I realized that despite me wanting to learn about the universe, I'm not ready to take the step."
"A couple months then."
"A couple months."
Hermione and Harry had both walked down with the Doctor and Amy to see them off before they departed. As they saw the blue box dematerialize they waved as if they could see them and vice versa.
Hermione apparated back to her apartment made her self a cup of tea and settled down on the couch. Harry had gone to his room to sleep due to the long day. It was quiet, something that she had not experienced for a while. Normally she didn't mind it but all she could think about was the fun she had with the Doctor and Amy. Maybe it was a mistake not to take him up on his offer to see the universe. She gave up the universe to stay her, in her apartment, drinking a cup of tea in silence.
The Doctor leant against the console staring at the black monitor deep in thought. Amy had gone to sleep in her room after wishing the Doctor goodnight and it left him standing alone. He missed her smile, her laugh and the way she was so eager to learn about everything. He hoped that she would want to travel with him but now all he could do was wait. He just had to see how accurate he could really be.
