Chapter 14 - Rose's POV

Standing there in the TARDIS I just looked all around me with a very large grin on my face as I remembered all of my adventures with the Doctor. A minute or so later the Doctor asked Jack to watch Victoria and then he took me into one of the corridor that leads from the console room.

"What is it Doctor?"

"I just wanted us to talk alone for a few minutes"

"What about?"

"About Victoria"

"What about her?"

"What's she like, has she ever asked about me?

"She's a wonderful girl, very advanced though I'm guessing that's her time lord side enhancing her human one, anyway she's really sweet, loves reading and playing. And yes, she has asked about you, many times, I tell her bed time stories of our adventures"

"You do?"

"Yeah, I used to water down the more scary aspects and then she started talking and told me that she could handle it"

After a little silence I asked "Doctor, could you now answer one of my questions please?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"What was the end of that sentence?"

"I think you already know"

"I want to hear you say it, please"

"Sure, Rose Tyler I love you"

I then beamed up at him, looking him straight in the eye, then I grabbed the lapels of his jacket and kissed him, he was shocked at first I think but he soon joined in the kiss and when we broke apart I told him that I had wanted to do that for a long time, he replied with "So have I".

Then we were interrupted by Victoria who came running in saying that we had landed in Roald Dhal Plass so we followed her back into the console room where Gwen asked "So what do we do know?"

"Now Miss Cooper we get Vinegar, come on"

A few minutes later we were all stood outside of a cash point where the Doctor, pointed the sonic at the machine causing it to spill out a lot of money.

"Is that illegal?" asked Ianto

"I don't know, besides, no one would arrest me, otherwise the planet would be in jeopardy at some point, anywhere, everyone gets £50, go to different shops, get all the vinegar and pickled substances you can, meet back at the TARDIS in 30 minutes"

I went with Victoria and the Doctor to the nearest shop and we talked and talked about anything and everything to do with our adventures, with him telling Victoria his part of the stories I had told her. She was mesmerised by him, hanging on his every word and asking questions about all of the aliens he mentioned. Soon enough half an hour had passed and we went back to the TARDIS where everyone else was already waiting.

Inside the ancient ship the doctor told me to escort everyone to the kitchen where we would mix all of our vinegar and pickled products before putting them into weapons, back in the console the Doctor said "Let's do this" and then he pressed a button on the console and off we went again.
