Confinding in the Doctor

When Eloise first stepped into the Tardis, she was quite amazed at how the Doctor managed to fit a large room into a smal wooden box.

"How did you manage to fit a large room into such a small blue box?" she asked as she wiped her eyes with the tissue that he gave her.

"Well let's just say I can do magic" he chuckled which made Eloise smile a bit. The Doctor took her hand and sat her down on the Tardis seat and he knelt down in front of her.

"Now, you are going to tell me what all this hoo-haa is about and I'm going to make you a hot chocolate, agree?". Eloise nodded and sniffled. The doctor patted her head and headed of to the Tardis kitchen. Ten minutes later he arived with a steaming mug of Hot chocolate and handed it to the little girl.

"So, what's brought all this on hmm?" he asked.

"Well, I told my mum about those Daleks coming after me and she just assumed that I wasn't right in the head" she replied then taking a sip from her Hot Chocolate which seemed to taste quite fine.

"You didn't tell her about the Diamand did you?" the doctor asked with a worried look on his face. "No, I just told her that I found something really valuable that the Daleks are after me and they're coming after me so they can get their hands on it, but she said I wasn't right and she took me to see the nutcase Doctor" and she began sobbing a little bit.

"A nutcase doctor?" the Doctor asked, confused. "You know, those type of Doctors who help out people who arn't right in the head, people who are completly insane" Eloise retaliatted. The doctor put a hand on Eloise's shoulder to reassure her that everything was going to be ok as long as she kept the Diomand safelt hidden.

"But what do I do if I do get taken away by them Daleks, Mum doesn't believe me. You're the only one who can convince her that it's true. You have to come back to mine to tell her the whole story" she begged before breaking down. The doctor gave her a hug and reassured that he won't let anything bad happen to her.

"It's going to be ok, I won't let the Daleks take you, if they start chasing you with that spaceship of theirs you come running to me, ok? I'll stop them from taking you or the Diamond". Eloise looked at the Doctor with tears flowing down her cheeks. "You promise?". The doctor smiled to show that he wasn't lying. "Come on, we better get you home, I think your mum will be worried about you" and he lifted her off the seat and they both walked hand in hand back to Eloise's house.

"Did you ever get bullied when you was at school?" she asked as they walked down the street. "I cannot remember, it was a very long time since I was a kid"the doctor replied.

"Grownups always say that it was a very long time since they were kids, guess it's because they they have alot of things going on during their childhood and when they get older it seems like an eternity to them" Eloise spoke.

"Well, for me it was a very long time" the doctor replied. Pretty soon they reached Eloise's house and the doctor dropped her off just at the end of the road from her house.

"Will you be ok from here?" he asked. Eloise nodded and turned to walk up to her house. When she entered through the front door, the first thing that happened was Janice runnig from the kitchen to embrace her in a hug.

"Oh my god, it's you. Oh Eloise where have you been? I've been so worried about you" she cried hystericly. "I'm ok mum, I just went for a walk to clear my head" Eloise replied.

"But Don't you ever run off like that again, I was so worried about you sweetie. Oh Ellie I'm so sorry about earlier, I guess your imaginary was just running wild. I used to get that when I was little and my mum would assumed that I was insane, oh my god I think I'm becoming just like her to think that about you" Janice said rather quickly.

"I'm sorry for yelling at you this morning, I Guess the whole thing about this UFO on the news has just scared me to think that it's Aliens who have come for me" Eloise explained. Janice kissed her daughter and stroked her face. "You better get to bed baby, you've got school tomorrow". Eloise nodded and headed up the stairs.
