The TARDIS shuddered to a stop and Allie looked at Theta expectantly.

"So...where are we?" She asked.

"We," Theta began, moving around the console, "are in the year 5,000."

Her eyes widened. "No way."

He smiles. "Yes way. We are on the passenger ship Zarfine, in the year 5,000. " He turned on the big screen to show people in cocktail dresses and tux's. "And by the looks of it we landed in the middle of a party."

Allie jumped up. "I gotta go get ready then." She ran out of the console room. Five seconds later she ran back in. "Come on, Theta."

"What? Why?"

"You are not wearing that to this kind of party. You need a tux. Luckily I saw a few in the wardrobe. Now come on!" She left the room.

Theta finally sighed and followed her.


They finally walked toward the entrance to the ballroom, where the party was being held. Allie was in a strapless red dress that flowed just above her knees and Theta was in a black tux with a matching black bow tie.

A middle aged man saw them and walked over to them. "Excuse me, but I don't believe I have seen you two before. Where are your tickets?"

"Oh..." Allie hadn't really thought about this. "Well...you see..."

"I have them right here." Theta interrupted her and reached in his coat pocket and pulled out what looked like a wallet. "You see? Right here. Theta and Allie. First class."

The man looked at the piece of paper and nodded. "Right of course. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Now if you'll excuse me..." The man walked off, mumbling to himself the whole way.

"What did you just show him?" Allie asked.

Theta held it out to her. "This is physic paper. It shows the person looking at it what they want to see."

Allie looked at it. "It just looks like a blank piece of paper to me."

"That's because you know what it is now. It doesn't work for you once you know what it is." Theta put it back in his coat pocket. "Now," he held out his arm to her, "shall we do this?"

She took his arm and smiled. "We shall."

They walked into the ballroom.

The whole floor was covered in dozens of couples dancing to the music. There was a small stage with a woman singing and a band playing behind her set up at the front of the room. A table full of hor dourves and refreshments was set up by the wall.

The song playing ended and everyone clapped. Theta and Allie made their way around the dance floor and toward the back of the room. A new song started.

Just a day, just an ordinary day.

Just trying to get by.

Just a boy, just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.

Allie looked over at Theta who was just happily watching everyone else dance.

And as he asked if I would come along,

I started to realize,

That everyday he finds just what he's looking for.

Like a shooting star he shines.

And he said "Take my hand,

live while you can.

Don't you see all your dreams lie right in the

palm of your hand?"

Allie finally turned to Theta. "Would you like to dance?" She asked.

Theta shook his head. "No I...I can't dance."

She pulled him out onto the dance floor anyway. "Well I think it's time you learned."

And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words,

Although they did not feel, no,

For I felt what I had not felt before,

and you swear, those words, could heal.

And as I looked up into those eyes,

his vision borrows mine.

And I know he's no stranger for I feel

I've held him for all of time.

Theta awkwardly tried to twirl her and she laughed when she finally managed to get all the way around. He finally started to relax and wasn't doing that bad.

And he said "Take my hand,

live while you can.

Don't you see all your dreams lie right in the

palm of your hand?"

Allie instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck and his wrapped around her waist. She realized that this was the closest they had ever been, and she didn't really mind being this close.

Please come with me.

See what I see.

Touch the stars for

time will not flee.

Time will not flee.

Can you see?

The song was starting to come to a close and they both slowed their dancing. Allie looked up at him and saw that he was looking at her. She could feel a blush start to creep up her neck. They just stood there looking at each other in the middle of the dance floor. Neither of them moving. They were so close, and Allie let herself wonder, just for a moment, what it would be like to kiss him.

Just a day, just an ordinary day.

Just trying to get by.

Just a boy, just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.

The song ended and Theta and Allie both stepped apart and clapped along with everyone else. Another song started but they both walked off of the dance floor. Neither knew what had just happened, or why they wanted it to happen again.


A/N: Why is it that all my stories, no matter how hard I try, always end up with a pairing? *sigh* Oh and if you guys want to see Allie's dress I have it up on my profile. And this song (this amazing song) is called Ordinary Day by: Vanessa Carlton. Make sure you look the song up as soon as you are done REVIEWING! XD
