Clara's POV
I entered the TARDIS and placed my hands on the console, the TARDIS hummed in response as if to ask "What's wrong?"
"I don't know. I just feel like he's gonna replace me once I leave or die. He's replaced all of his previous 'companions'." I said with sadness and anger.
"Clara!" I heard Jenny call.
"Yea, I'm in here!" I shouted. Jenny then slowly entered the TARDIS and she looked shocked as she looked around,
"Wow." She whispered. "It's bigger on the inside."
"Wait. You've never been in the Tardis before?" I asked.
"N-no. I only ever saw the outside of it." She said as she walked up next to me and placed her hand on the console. "So this is the ship that flies in time and space huh?" I nodded. "How long have you been travelling with The Doctor?"
"Hard to tell. What with all the different times we've been to. But I hope I can continue to travel until the day that I die."
"So you plan on never leaving The Doctor and the Tardis then?"
"Never. Even though he doesn't want me to travel with him anymore." I stated.
"Why doesn't he want you to travel with him anymore?!" She questioned.
"He's worried about me. He's always talking about 'losing me'."
"Wow. He's my dad and he's not that protective with me." Jenny said.
"I wish he wasn't so protective." I said as I walked away from the console and then I headed towards one of the corridors. "I'm gonna head off to bed, anyways." I looked at my phone to see the time, The Doctor set it so it changed to whatever time we were in, it read: 11:34pm.
"Night, Clara." Jenny said.
"Night."
The Doctor's POV
"Hey, Missy. Jack." I said.
"Yes, Doctor?" Jack asked.
"Where's Clara and Jenny?" I questioned.
"I think they both went to the Tardis." Missy said. I nodded,
"Thanks." I mumbled. After getting directions from one of the vikings I finally found the TARDIS. I walked in and saw Jenny standing there, "Hey, Jenny."
"Hey, dad." I then walked over to her and said,
"It's pretty late. You going to bed?" She shrugged, "Well, I can show you to your room if you want."
"I have a room? On the Tardis?" She asked.
"Yea. I had the Tardis make one for you straight after you 'died'." He said.
"Thanks, dad." She wrapped her arms around me and I returned the hug. She pulled away and I took her down one of the corridors, we passed the door marked 'Clara' on the way. "That Clara's room?" she asked.
"Yea. Is she in there?" I questioned as we continued to walk. She nodded.
"You need to talk to her." Jenny said.
"Why's that?" I asked.
"She's... worried."
"About what?"
Jenny sighed, "She thinks that you're gonna forget about her when she dies and she thinks your gonna just replace her with another companion." I sighed and looked down,
"Yeah. I'll... talk to her." She smiled.
"Good."
About seven doors down we reached the one that was marked 'Jenny'. "Here we are." I pushed the door opened and Jenny entered. There was a double bed in the middle with TARDIS blue covers.
"Wow." She said as she looked around. There were stars on the ceiling and a projector projected outer-space onto one of the walls, "It's amazing. The best bedroom I have ever had." She turned to look at me and once again surprised me with a hug, once we pulled away I pulled a futuristic watch out of my pocket and handed it to her.
"What's this for?"
"Whatever time you are in, the watch will automatically set to that time." I placed it around her wrist and read it, "There. It's 11:42pm now. And when we travel again it will change."
"Wa-wait, you mean you'll take me with you?" She asked.
"Yea. If you want to come and see time and space with us, you can join our strange little group." She nodded in response.
"Night, dad. Thanks again." I nodded as I left her room, shutting the door behind me. I then headed back towards the console room. I stopped outside of Clara's door, I decided to check up on her. I knocked on her door and I heard her say,
"Yea?"
"It's me, Clara!" I shouted back.
"Oh, come in." I opened the door, walked in, and closed it behind me. She was sitting on her bed, wearing a black shirt and some gray bottoms. She was also flicking through the pages of a book.
"Hey. I was just coming to see how you were doing."
"Not like you." She replied as she continued to look at her book. She then looked over the top of the book and said, "Don't just stand there. Sit next to me." She demanded,
"Pfft. Control freak." I said as I walked to the other side of the bed and lay next to her,
"I am not a control freak." She warned.
"Yes Ma'am." I said with a smile as I looked up at the ceiling.
"Doctor. I'm having trouble sleeping." She said. "Will you read to me? It sometimes helps." I looked at her, she gave me a pleading look. I sighed,
"Alright, alright. Stop it with those eyes of yours!" I took the book and she moved closer to me, leaning her head on my chest.
Clara's POV
I lied about having trouble sleeping. I know I said that we shouldn't lie to each other anymore, but this can be a one-off right? I just wanted to hear The Doctor's heartbeats. Two of them. It was oddly soothing. After about 2 minutes of him reading, I closed my eyes slowly. Suddenly, I felt him shift a bit before a soft blanket covered me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his head in my hair.
"Night, Clara." he whispered.
"Night, Doctor." There was silence for moment before he said one more thing,
"I'll never forget you Clara. When and if you ever leave me. You are literally irreplaceable. My Impossible Girl." I had the biggest smile on my face I think I have ever had.
Missy's POV
"What time is it?" Jack asked.
"Er," I looked down at my vortex manipulator which just so happened to be able to tell the time, what a coincidence! "twenty minutes past twelve."
"And what time are the Mire coming tomorrow?" He questioned as he looked up at the night sky.
"Around 6pm I think. Hopefully The Doctor has a plan."
"Knowing him he probably does. What do you think he's doing now?" He asked with a smirk.
"What he's doing now? Probably Clara."
"ha ha. Wow." Jack responded.
"People who are reading this fanfiction are probably loving the Whouffaldi moments." I said.
"Fanfiction? Whouffaldi? What are you talking about?"
"Woops! Nothing! Slip of the tongue!" I said.
"Right ok. Let's head back to the Tardis for rest of the night." I nodded in agreement. "I'm surprised we haven't tried to kill each other yet."
"Well... let's not deny that we both have thoughts about killing each other."
"Agreed." Jack said. "But I guess we keep ourselves occupied!"
"With what?" I questioned as we reached the TARDIS doors and opened them.
"We constantly babble on about Clara and The Doctor's relationship." He smirked.
"So we do." I closed the doors behind us. "Wait... do we even have bedrooms on the Tardis?" I questioned.
"I'm... not sure. Hey, Sexy!" Jack called to the TARDIS. The TARDIS hummed, "We have rooms, right?" He asked. A set of lights then illuminated one of the corridors.
"Our rooms must be down there, I guess." I said as I started to walk towards the corridor, followed by Jack.
"Thanks, Sexy!" Jack said. The TARDIS hummed, happily.
"Right! Come on!" I said.
After walking for about twenty minutes we both finally found our rooms.
Clara's POV
I slowly opened my eyes and yawned.
"Morning." The Doctor said.
"How long have you been awake?" I asked as I picked up my phone from the bedside table. It read: 8:47am.
"Oh. About 6 hours." he replied.
"6 hours?!" I questioned, "You've been here for awake for 6 hours?!"
"Yea."
"Didn't you get bored?" I asked as I lay the other way so I could see his face.
"Not really. I just go through everything that I've ever done in my mind and it soon passes the time. I could also hear your heartbeat, that also helped pass the time." He smiled.
"I can never tell if you try to flirt." I raised my eyebrow as I sat up. "Doctor... can I ask you something?"
"Sure. What is it?" He asked as he sat up aswell.
"What are we?"
"Er... I'm not sure I understand, Clara." He asked. I turned my head so I could see him and I held his hand in my lap.
"What are we? Relationship wise." I questioned.
"I... Don't know. Never really been good with this kind of stuff!" He exclaimed. I smiled as he leaned forward and placed his lips on mine, only briefly before removing them again,
"Well... I wouldn't say that you are terrible with relationships." I said, "You've got the 'kissing' part sorted out." He turned a light shade of red before removing his hand from mine and standing up from the bed. He pulled back his sleeve and looked at his watch.
"It's almost 9. And we still have to think of a plan." He said. I removed the cover from myself and stood up.
"Okay. I'll get dressed." I said. And a few seconds of silence. "Doctor."
"Huh?"
"Stop staring at me and leave." I smirked. He sighed before leaving the room and closing the door behind him.
The Doctor's POV
I closed the door to Clara's room. I then headed down the corridor towards Jenny's room. I knocked on the door and shouted,
"Jenny?!"
"Yea?" She replied.
"You know the way back to the console room, right?"
"Er... not really, no!"
I sighed, "Alright alright. I'll have the Tardis guide you back when you're ready."
"Thanks, dad!" I smiled. I still can't believe that Jenny is alive. I started to walk back to the console room. Once I reached it, Jack and Missy were standing there looking at a mobile phone.
"Doctor! We have some great news!" Missy shouted.
"Has it got anything to do with the Mire?" I asked.
"Well... no. Not really." Missy replied.
"It's something that you might like though." Jack said, "You see... we used my phone to set up a Facebook account for you."
"Facebook? Isn't that that awful social media site where everyone disagrees with what everyone else says? Clara showed it me once." I paused, "Wait! Why have you set a up a Facebook account for me?!"
"So we could set your relationship status to: In a relationship!" Missy said. I looked at them in disappointment.
"Right. You guys SERIOUSLY need to get a hobby."
