A/N: This is a short chapter, just to reconnect Rose and the Doctor. The next chapter will be longer than this, though, and will be posted tomorrow. Thank you for reading and please leave comments and reviews.

Chapter 4

Rose continued walking away, giving her bestfriend time to think. She knew Rory would arrive soon and knowing the man for as long as she knew Amy, she's sure Rory would be Amy's voice of reason and would be able to convince her to at least show up at Gelth Café even for a minute. She just wish she's right and that Rory has not changed drastically while she was gone.

Rose pulled her phone from her bag and started skimming through the latest Gossip Girl post. She and Amy were mentioned twice and a girl named Clara was mentioned for having 'daddy issues' because she was spotted in a shop with an old man. Rose snorted, finding Gossip Girl more ridiculous than ever. Rose still can't believe Gossip Girl is still ongoing and that more students (from Tardis Institution and other schools) are participating. She thought it would only last for a year, but they're in Year 12 now and there's no sign of Gossip Girl stopping anytime soon.

Being distracted with reading, Rose didn't notice the tall and skinny man standing right in front of her and crashed onto his back. Rose dropped her phone and clutched the back of the man's blazer for dear life so she won't fall as he tries not to lose balance and fall onto the person holding him.

Rose let go of the blazer, her face red in shame and demurely bent down to pick up her phone. While she's doing that, she didn't notice the man turn around, his face showing many emotions all at once. He tried to school his features but the smile that settled on his lips won't go away.

Rose stood up once again. "Sorry about that," she said sheepishly.

John could not believe his luck! Rose Tyler bumped into him! Early on a Monday morning, no less! His smile widens and shook his head. "No need to apologize! We all get the Monday morning clumsiness!"

Rose chuckled. "That's a thing, eh?"

"Yup," John responded enthusiastically, making the P pop.

Rose's face suddenly lit up in recognition that made John confused for a second. "I know you!" Rose exclaimed. "You're the boy who told me about Gelth Café!"

John winced at the mention of the word 'boy'. That won't do, he thought, I can't be just a 'boy'. "I'm a man now," John responded, making his voice deeper which made Rose smile wide. "And yep, that was me! Lil' old me! Can't believe you remembered, though, that was a long time ago."

"True, but you can never forget someone who knows amazing places," Rose replied, smiling wide with her tongue poking at the side of her mouth. "I'm Rose, by the way. What's your name?"

"I'm Joh—" John was about to introduce himself when he was interrupted by Donna.

"Doctor! There you are! Mum called and said you forgot your lunch!" Donna started shouting as she spot him from the end of the hall. John's face went red. Sometimes, Donna makes him want to dive into a fiery pit straight to hell.

Donna stopped just in time to see Rose stifle a laugh. She glanced at John and saw him glaring at her. Her mouth formed an O when she realized what she disrupted. "Oops," she whispered.

"This is Donna, my sister," John grumpily introduced. Donna and Rose shook hands. "And I'm John!"

"Hey, it's nice to bump into you again," Rose started. "It's nice to meet you too, Donna. Anyway, I really need to meet the Headmistress before class starts. See you around!" Rose wave them goodbye and left.

Donna looked at his brother sporting a lovesick look. "How the hell did that happen?"

John re-enacted what happened, his face lighting up even more as he tries to engrave that moment in his spacious head. "God, Donna, she's so beautiful! I'm so glad I went to school early today!"

Donna stopped walking, "By the way, what time did you leave the house? I woke up and you weren't there anymore."

"Early enough," John responded.

"You were up before Gramps weren't you?" Donna teased.

"Please, Donna! It was worth it!" And John left her sister shaking her head in amusement.
