"You can't be serious," Oswin giggled and almost choked.
"Yes I am," the Doctor laughed as they stumbled into the TARDIS, laughing and giggling over a story the Doctor had just told and Oswin had to hold on to his arm tighter not to fall backwards down the stairs as they staggered to her room, laughing and panting. Oswin hiccupped and her cheeks flushed red even more.
"You look funny," the Doctor chuckled and Oswin looked in horror at him as she realized she must be red like a tomato and like this she had been out there on the street crowded with people. It wasn't such a good idea to go into this cocktail bar they had passed on their way back to the TARDIS. The margarita and sex on the beach combined with the champagne and wine she had before was a little too much for her. The Doctor wasn't quite sober either.
"Jesus," Oswin sighed, she felt a little dizzy and flopped back on her bed. Unfortunately she forgot to let go of the Doctors arm, he stumbled and fell down on the bed as well and half onto her.
"Ow," Oswin huffed and the doctor shifted quickly down from her and lay next to her. "Sorry," he mumbled. Oswin smiled at him.
"It's okay," she said. She reached out and put her hand on the back of his neck and pulled him into another kiss.
The Doctor responded immediately. Their lips and tongues were hungry for each other and their hands touched and caressed everything they could reach of the other.
"Best night ever," Oswin moaned into the kiss. The Doctor just nodded breathless and held her face in his palms, caressing her cheeks with his thumbs. He kissed her lips again, her nose, her cheeks, her forehead. "Clara Oswin Oswald, you are the best that could happen to me."
Oswin smiled happily and pulled him down onto her again.
"I can do even better," she smirked. "Let me show you the stars for once."
When Oswin woke up she felt still a little tired and a throbbing pain was forming in her head. She blinked, rubbed her eyes and sat up in her bed. Looking around she noticed a glass of water and some aspirin on the nightstand. "Oh, thank you," she sighed and reached for the pills and swallowed two of them down with a big swig of water. She took a deep breath and then she remembered what happened. Shocked, she fell back onto the bed and closed her eyes for a moment to let everything sink in.
Oh my god, I slept with an over 900 year old alien.
Then she burst out into laughter.
A split second later the Doctor bolted through the door inside her room. He didn't wear his suit, only the trousers, a shirt and socks.
"Oswin! What happened?"
Oswin, still giggling, wiped some tears of laughter from her face, stood up and threw herself at him.
"Nothing," she muttered. "Everything's fine."
"Okay." He said a bit confused. Oswin let go of him and grinned.
"You do know how to pleasure a woman; I didn't expect that from you." Now it was his turn to blush and he turned away to hide his flushed cheeks.
Oswin patted his chest and then held her belly.
"I'm so hungry," she groaned as she turned to leave for the bathroom.
"There's breakfast in the kitchen," the Doctor said. Oswin looked at him in surprise.
"You made breakfast?" He shrugged and grinned proudly. Oswin shook her head. "You're so sweet." She went to do her morning wash and got dressed.
In the kitchen, tea, coffee and plates with bacon, eggs, and pancakes and sandwiches were ready on the table. Oswin sat down on the opposite from the Doctor and poured herself some coffee. The Doctor drank tea. They sat and ate in silence for some time only glancing and smiling at each other every now and then.
"Tell me," he suddenly starts to talk. "In the future, are we…" he gestured with his hand between the two of them.
Oswin almost choked on her eggs. Then she shook her head slowly. "Not like that," she said and her cheeks flushed red again. "I have not had the guts to tell him, I mean you, yet."
He nodded slowly as he poked around in his food. "I get it. It's complicated right?"
"Yes," Oswin chuckled. "You were too busy figuring out who I am."
He raised an eyebrow at her. "I can already relate to that feeling." They both laughed and finished off their breakfast.
It was all too good to be true. Later that day Oswin got that strange feeling again that something was going to happen.
Oswin was circling the console while the Doctor has vanished in the depth of his spaceship as suddenly lights flashed randomly all over the console and it made high alarm sounds.
"What is wrong?" Oswin asked startled, hands up in the air. "I didn't do anything." She starts walking around the console again.
"Doctor? What is happening?" she shouted.
The Doctor came back and dashed to the panel.
"No, no, no, no. What is it?" He pressed some buttons and looked at the readings on the screen with a frown.
"She reacts to something. It seems like a distress signal. No, two signals." He scratched his head.
"Who sends them?" Oswin is at his side and looks confused at him and the screen.
"One comes from the TARDIS, the other one I'm trying to locate. But it's weak and fading, probably shielded by something like a force field." The Doctor took out his sonic screwdriver trying to trace the signal and after a minute or so he let out a frustrated sigh.
"What?" Oswin asked, although she already had a clue what was wrong.
"Lost it," he said disappointed. Oswin cursed. There might have been someone who needed their help and now they couldn't do anything.
The Doctor noted her expression and knew what she was thinking.
"Hey I won't give up. I'm going to let out a signal boost maybe someone else was able to find the origin of the signal. And you go and do whatever. Make soufflé or something, just don't worry."
Oswin laughed. The Doctor smiled at her and then suddenly stopped. His expression became serious. Oswin noticed that and her smile faded. Moreover not only her smile was fading.
"Oswin," the Doctor said voiceless and he went pale, as was Oswin.
