Chapter 7: Elena: Smaller on the Outside
"So" I stammered trying to find the right words. I played with the ice in my drink as I tried to figure this whole thing out, I could never look at Ashley, the same way twice now. Well now that she had told me her big secret, I hoped I would never have to share my own with her. My life just got a whole lot more complicated "you're an alien?" I asked her again, at this Ashley sighed in exasperation.
This was all too much for her, the weight off this big reveal had taken it out of her, that much I could tell. "I'm an alien" Ashley confirmed, as if it wasn't such a big surprise for her. Then again Ashley must go about this stuff every single day and not think about the consequences of telling the truth "does that surprise you?"
She leaned in forward and stared into the depths of my own eyes, we were close now, close then we had ever been before, just close enough to kiss. "You look human" I said voicing my own thoughts. Again I had no say in this matter, I wasn't entirely human myself to begin with.
"No" Ashley said still leaning in as if to kiss me. "You look Time Lady" she smiled and at this she chuckled "we came first" she leaned back and at this she took hold of my hand and led me out of the bar "what do we do now?" she asked me flirtatiously and I couldn't help it.
I gave in to her beauty. It was like something was drawing me to her, and now I knew she was an alien, things weren't that weird between us.
"Um" I stammered not really knowing what to say in these kinds of situations. I was kind of dissapointed that she didn't kiss me, but to be honest I kind of sensed she had another idea of what to do with me, especially seeing as it was now night any how. She led me back to her dorm room and I waited for her to do something.
She turned round and faced me and said "let me be clear. If you tell anyone else about this, you'll get yourself and them killed" I wasn't sure she was joking or not, but the look she gave me wasn't meant to imply that she was. It was then she opened the doors to her dorm room and I was shocked by what lay waiting for me inside.
The dorm room was bigger on the inside, with a vast control room marking it as the centre of the whole space. The console lay in the middle and was filled with many whimisicle gadgets and gizmos, the room itself however was bathed in a dark pink light and the walls were completly surrounded with round things.
I gasped in shock at what I saw and at this Ashley smiled and said "it's called The TARDIS, it can travel anywhere in time and space!" She gave a smile and said "it belonged to my brother and my father. But now" she gave a cocky smile and walked forward to face the console "it's mine" she pressed some buttons on the console and then the whole thing whirred to life.
The whole experience of watching this magical thing happens was quite astounding and astonishing at the same time, I had to keep gasping in order to breath and then when it all became too shocking for me, I ran out of the TARDIS and back to the entrence of Ashley's dorm room.
I stood facing the open doors that led into the console room and gaped opened mouthed at the entire thing. Ashley waved from inside smiling as she was witnnessed this happening before her. Without thinking I took the greatest discision of my life and ran back straight into the TARDIS.
I looked back and the doors closed from behind me "it's smaller on the outside" I said smiling and at this Ashley's face fell as if she expected to here something different.
"OK" she muttered to herself looking at the console room "that is a first" I wondered what that meant but I couldn't help myself I rushed towards Ashley and started kissing her. And then the strangest thing happened. She kissed me back. Something I wasn't expecting.
We continued kissing until we fell onto the floor of the TARDIS console room laughing, when we stopped kissing Ashkey looked up from me and said "I'd better think we'd take this somewhere else" I agreed with her and she led me up some stairs, to her own bedroom and I marvelled at the sight of it.
"You sure this isn't weird?" I said as soon as Ashley began taking off her tank top I smiled when she did so this and Ashley said
"No" Ashley said smiling, I looked at her as she stood there in her bra and trousers. She walked forward to me and began kissing me again, she helped me take off my own shirt as well "it's not weird at all" she said between kisses and at that as we we're done taking off each other's clothes we landed straight on the bed and continued kissing, which I was very happy with...
