Mitsy shuffles further into the room eyeing suspiciously river and the doctor. "Is it true?" she asks shakily as she sits down on the TARDIS blue sofa.
Both River and the Doctor slowly makes their way over, sitting on both sides of her. River nods her head slightly confirming to the small child that what she had heard was in fact true.
River put her arm around Mitsy and kissed her forehead, "I'm sorry we kept this from you Sweetie." River says softly.
"We did it only to protect you." The Doctor says just as softly.
There's a moment between the three of them where no one talks. The silence seems to last a decade but in actual fact only one tiny minute passes. Mitsy looks at her mother, then to the Doctor and then back to her mother, "Do you love each other?" Mitsy finally asks simply.
More silence follows.
The Doctor is the first to answer, "Very much so." It comes out more like a whisper as he locks eyes with River.
Tears prickle River's eyes but she manages to control them as she sees the sincerity in his eyes, after a long moment she very hesitantly nods her head.
As soon as Mitsy sees River nod her head she jumps up from the sofa laughing hysterically, "I knew it! He's your prince!" Misty shouts causing river and the doctor to share a quiet laugh.
"River...please...lets just give it a go?" The doctor asks quietly.
River shakes her head again, "could you ensure our daughter's safety?" River asks her voice just above a whisper.
"River, you know the answer but you also know that I will protect her with everything I have." he tells her honestly.
"Pleeeease Mummy?" Mitsy asks exaggeratedly catching on to what The Doctor had asked.
River lets out a long sigh, rolling her eyes, "What about school?" She asks desperately trying to keep up her side of the argument knowing that she's loosing.
The Doctor sighs, "River she's a Timelord... We can teach her everything she needs to know and as for the earthy things Clara can teach her... Please river, just give it a go..." The Doctor pleads enthusiastically.
River finally gives in with a slight nod of her head. She smiles quietly as she sees her husband and daughter jumping up and down together in an excited motion. River rolls her eyes but cant help letting out a small laugh seeing how happy they are.
River heads back to her bedroom leaving the Doctor to entertain Mitsy while she got together her few belongings. After ten minutes the Doctor wonders into River's bedroom leaving Mitsy playing with her dolls in the lounge. The Doctor wraps his arms around River and spins her around until she is facing him. He whisperers soft and slow, "Thank you..." before taking her breath away in a passion-filled kiss.
