AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey. This is the seventh chapter of my Eleven/River fanfic. I hope you enjoyed the first six chapters. This is the shortest chapter I think, but it's quite an important one! Hopefully the next chapter should be up soon. And as always, constructive criticism is welcome! Enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: Unfortunately I do not own any of the characters mentioned in this fanfic, and I do not own Doctor Who. Doctor Who belongs to the BBC and this is purely for fun and non-profitable purposes!

CHAPTER SEVEN: Positive.

"Trust you" River huffed. "Trust you to get us in trouble with the Judoon!"

They were marched through the futuristic Judoon base, their equivalent to an Earth police station, escorted by two of the head Judoon. The corridor was dark and damp with various water droplets seeping in through cracks in the foundations. It reminded River very much of Stormcage as it even had the same eerie lighting too. The Judoon's black studded kilts swayed as they stomped through the lonely corridor, their hefty boots sending sound waves quaking through the ground. And with one almighty stamp, they came to a halt at a cell, shoving River and the Doctor inside. With one quick motion, the wrought iron cell door slammed shut. River shook her head solemnly as she took a seat on the small prison bed. The Doctor clasped his hands tightly on the bars of the cells, yelling at the Judoon who were ignoring him as they walked away.

"YOU CAN'T DO THIS!" He bellowed. "Under the laws of the Shadow Proclamation you can't do this!"

"It's no good sweetie, they're not listening" River replied quietly, wincing in pain as she ran her hand over her stomach.

The Doctor glanced over his shoulder at his wife, and seeing she was in pain, gave up trying to shout his way out of the cold prison cell, and wandered over to her, taking a seat next to her.

"River?" He asked gently, putting his arm around her shoulder. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing" She smiled weakly, but then a sharp pain hit her unexpectedly. "Oww!" She cried, clutching at her stomach, scrunching her face up and panting heavily.

"River seriously..." He asked worried. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, honestly, I swear I'm fine" She replied hastily, placing her hand on his cheek and caressing it with her thumb.

"If you're sure" He answered, obviously still not taking her word as the truth.

"I'm sure, just get us out of here sweetie" She said, avoiding his glare.

"I'm really sorry I got us into this" He murmured.

"Yeah, you should be" She grinned, raising her eyebrows. "Why did you steal that artefact anyway?"

"For the last time, I WASN'T STEALING IT!" He whined, flapping his arms about frantically as he stood up and started to pace around the cell.

"You walked out of the museum with it stuffed in your jacket pocket!" She exclaimed.

"I DID NOT!" He paused. "Ok...so I did. But it was an accident! I was gonna put it back!"

"Of course you were sweetie" She laughed patronisingly.

Suddenly the cry from the Judoon could be heard approaching the cell.

"They're coming back. Let's see if I can get them to release us" He muttered wandering up to the bars, but River wasn't listening.

River rose from her seat, clutching at her stomach again, her head was spinning and sickness was overwhelming her.

"Doctor..." She murmured, clasping her hand to her mouth, but the Doctor wasn't listening, he was busy screaming and shouting at the Judoon stood on the other side of the door. "Doctor..." She repeated anxiously. "I think I'm going...I'm going t..." She suddenly jerked forward and threw up. The Doctor spun on his heels and made a face, before moving to her side and putting his arm on her shoulder as she continued to vomit to the ground.

"CAN'T YOU SEE SHE'S NOT WELL?" The Doctor yelled to the Judoon. "Please, please just let us out, let me get her back into the TARDIS, let me care for her. I'm begging you!"

River stood up, grasping her head in agony. The Judoon took a moment to comprehend what the Doctor was asking of him, before nodding in agreement and moving to unlock the door. He ushered the Doctor and River out of the cell, ordering for another Judoon, who was standing nearby, to clean up the mess. He let them, but not before he issued a warning to them, along with a small fine for their release. The Doctor thanked him as he slowly helped River into the TARDIS.

"I'll go to the sick bay sweetie, you get the old girl going, we need to get out of here" River instructed weakly, wandering towards the stairs, her hand draped across her stomach.

"Are you sure you'll be ok on your own?" He asked, flicking various switches to start up the TARDIS's engines.

"Yes yes!" She replied through gritted teeth, trying to contain her agony so he wouldn't worry.

The Doctor watched as she stumbled out of sight, he shook his head in defeat, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. Then suddenly it hit him. He flicked the switches, kicked up the leavers, making sure to press the blue stabilizers to avoid causing River anymore sickness, and then he raced out of the control room and ran down the winding corridors towards the sick bay. He burst into the room to see River leant over the sink, tears brimming up in her eyes, about to roll daintily down her cheeks, she was running her hand over her stomach repeatedly as she inhaled vast amounts of oxygen and exhaled it all shakily. She turned round to face him when she spotted is reflection in the mirror.

"Hello sweetie" She whispered feebly, forging a smile.

"River..." He began, stepping closer to his wife.

"I think all this was probably caused by something I ate yesterday, and what with the Judoon's careless driving I wouldn't be surprised if yesterday's supper was churning in my stomach" She said unconvincingly, cutting him off. The Doctor raised his eyebrow at her lies.

"River..." He moved towards her, holding onto her arms so she couldn't escape, staring her down and intimidating her. "River, are you pregnant?"

She stared back at him, no expression on her face as her blue-green eyes gazed deep into his irresistible hazel ones. Then suddenly her face lit up, tears were welling up in her eyes again, and her mouth spread into a huge smile as she slowly guided his hand to her stomach and nodded her head indicating the answer to him.
