A/N: just another thank you for all the reviews and also feel free to message me if you have any ideas :)
River woke up a few hours later ridiculously confused. She remembered reading that awful page on miscarriages and she also remembered The Doctor telling her everything was going to be fine; What she couldn't remember was how she had woken up in her and The Doctor's bed.
She turned over to turn on the small light which was on her bed-side cabinet when she saw a small note leant against a steaming hot cup of tea.
I'LL BE IN THE KITCHEN DEAR, TAKE YOUR TIME.
-THE DOCTOR XX
River propped herself up in bed using pillows as she smiled at the note sipping her tea. "That wonderful idiot." River muttered to herself realising that she must have fallen heavily asleep on him and that he must have carried her to their bed knowing she needed to rest.
She quickly finished off her drink feeling better than when she had gone to sleep and actually feeling excited about what the future may hold for them as she wondered off to find her wonderful idiot.
It didn't take her long to find the kitchen and there as promised was her husband. The Doctor didn't notice her at first as he had his back to her and River could tell that he was deep in thought. "Whatever is the matter sweetie?" River questioned making her presence known.
"Ah, oh, errmm, yes, good you're up!" The Doctor started nervously, "Why don't you come over and take a seat dear?" The Doctor asked mysteriously as he over-gestured with his hands for her to take a seat next to him. River's heart leapt and her stomach dropped; this didn't sound good.
"Listen River, You need to know that no one can ever replace you, your mum or even your dad for that matter," The Doctor started failing to notice how pale River had gone.
'Oh no, No way is he doing this to me, not after all I have been through with him, No he can't be, Not now I'm carrying his child, surely he can't be finishing with me!" River thought panicky.
"-But Clara, you know, she was there for me when I lost everything and everyone; she helped me see the good in the universe again and she never once judged me..." The Doctor rambled on staring into space not noticing how red River had gone through anger.
'I knew it! I just knew something was going on between those two. He is unbelievable; he gets his wife knocked up and then starts to tell her that he is trading her in for a younger model!' River thinks outraged. Not being able to contain herself any longer she abruptly stood up cutting The Doctor off, "I told you!" River shouted at The Doctor.
The Doctor completely taken back was speechless as he watched his wife rage on, "What you thought that I was going to be fine with this, hey, did you?" River shouted fire and furry in her eyes.
"Well, I feel bad about what you walked in on but I thought we talked about it, I thought it would be alright, I didn't think it would be that much of a big deal!" The Doctor said an octave higher than his normal voice. The Doctor honestly couldn't understand why she was so upset and angry he thought she might take a bit of persuading but he never thought she would react quite like this.
"Well, what about everything you said to me last night, how you promised to protect me and the baby forever, or were they just words?" River shouted although her voice was now tinged with hurt and betrayal.
"River, I meant every single word I said to you last night and more, I thought you would like this, I thought you would be for this." The Doctor told her with a confused look on his face.
That was it. That was when River really blew her top and lost her rag, "How could even you think I would want to be traded in for a younger model?" River shouted in disbelief.
"Wait, What?" The Doctor asked with a confused tone of voice which River took as him playing dumb.
"Well that's what you're doing isn't it?" River shouted although her eyes had started to betray her by leaking a few un-wanted tears, "You're abandoning me and our unborn child for that Clara, a younger, more attractive companion who doesn't have the baggage!" River turned away to hide her tears which were now free-falling down her face.
The Doctor leapt up from his seat and in one fluent motion spun his wife around and planted a smooth kiss on her lips. He broke the kiss off and held on to the sides of her face passionately, whilst looking her square in the face afraid of letting her go he finally told her, "my amazing, wonderful stupid Melody Pond!" The Doctor spoke quickly while kissing her several times once more, "How could you ever think I was ever going to abandon you?" The Doctor asked already knowing that she had got the wrong end of the stick about what he had been talking about.
"But with what you just said, I mean you said how no one could ever replace me, mum or dad but then you started talking about Clara and how she was there for you when I wasn't!" River said a little calmer but her voice and body still trembled.
"Oh River, I simply wanted to know whether you would be ok with us going to pick her up and her travelling with us for a while?" The Doctor asked half relieved he knew what caused her to be so upset and half nervous about what her verdict would be on Clara.
River takes a moment to reply which makes The Doctor even more anxious before river broke out into a wide eyed smile. "Oh, is that all?" River questioned, "Of course that's okay Doctor!" River told him relieved.
"Oh, right, erm okay then," The Doctor awkwardly scratched his cheek which wasn't missed by River.
"Well what's the matter sweetie?" River asked confused once again.
"Oh well nothing, it's just that, I thought you might need a bit more persuading, that's all!" The Doctor told her sincerely still not sure if what River was saying was a trap.
"Oh, you daft fool, when Clara first rang you to ask about the internet, who do you think that woman was in the shop that gave her your number?" River asked with an eye-roll as she wiped the last tear from her eyes.
The Doctor's eyes widened in surprise and astonishment; "Wait, what, that was you?" The Doctor asked barely believing his ears, "But why?" The Doctor questioned her as he sat back down on the chair needing a rest from the events of the last 10 minutes.
"Well of course it was sweetie!" River laughed, "I knew how upset you were when mum and dad had gone and we both needed some space as well, I came across Clara and saw she was something special and would attract your eyes so when she came to me asking about the internet I gave her your number!" River explained, "Rule number 3, doctor," River paused for effect, "Never travel alone."
The Doctor, still seemingly astonished spoke up quietly still unsure, "So it was you, all you?"
River walked over to him and crouched down so she was level with him before whispering "Spoilers!" very flirtatiously in to his ear which sent cold shivers down his spine.
River had just walked out through the door of the kitchen before turning back and resting against the doorframe with one arm stretching up showing off the best of her curves before saying; "Oh but don't think im leaving my gun behind, you know, just in case she steps out of line again!" River winked at the Doctor although he knew she was being deadly serious. The Doctor watched as she rolled her eyes and walked off in the direction of the console room swaying her hips from side-to-side outrageously.
