Here I am, spamming your updates again :D Just watch Alex Kingston the teaching awards and died from sheer pleasure so I'm in a good mood!
Right so, in regards to even more people wanting me to get Jack in the story, I thought of this: River could call him for back-up, feeling like Rose is getting to her and he could do some special Vortex Manipulatory thing and show up? Not the best idea but the only one I can think of. If you guys like it, I'll work that in.
Another relatively short one today cos I'm shattered out of my mind but please enjoy and review anyway, love you sweeties.
When River went back inside the Tyler house, following her husband, the minute she got in the door she practically tripped over her mother, listening with her ear pressed against Rose's living room door.
'Mum, what the hell are you doing?' hearing her daughter's voice Amy spun around sharply, a guilty expression on her face.
'Shh! They'll hear!' she gestured towards the closed door 'That blonde said she wanted 'a word' with the Doctor and she wouldn't let her boyfriend in either, so I'm trying to find out what's going on' Amy gave her daughter a defensive look and River rolled her eyes.
'Dear god, you're getting more neurotic as the days go on. Where's John?' Amy raised her eyebrows.
'Why do you want to know? You're not going to get off with him, are you? Cos that sort of crazy revenge thing just doesn't work!'
'No mum!' River intercepted her 'I just want to talk. I think he recognises me but I haven't seen that version of the Doctor before' she shrugged.
'Yeah, that sounds about right' there was a voice from the back of the hall and both women jumped around. John was standing in the kitchen doorway, smiling slightly 'You wanted to talk, Professor Song?'
'I did' the smile River gave him was slightly flirtatious and Amy rolled her eyes as her daughter walked into the kitchen and closed the door behind them. She turned back to the living room door and pressed her ear against it again.
When River got into the kitchen she smiled at the human Doctor.
'By the way, it's Doctor Song. Spoilers' she winked and he grinned back at her.
'Spoilers- beautiful word!' suddenly he gathered her up in a bone-crushing hug and she jumped slightly in surprise. When he pulled away, he could see the amusement flashing on her face.
'What was that for?' she laughed lightly and he reflected how he hadn't heard her properly laugh in the Library. It was nice. He could certainly see why his future self had fallen for this woman; she did have an incredibly gorgeous laugh.
'For being brilliant, absolutely brilliant!' he kissed her on the forehead and grinned jubilantly at her 'And incredibly brave. Well done you!' he squeezed her tightly in another hug and her laugh rang through the room again.
'Well sweetie, I'm always brilliant but I gather I was extremely brilliant' she smiled at him brightly and he couldn't help his grin widening just a little more.
'River Song, you were bloody fantastic!'
