The Doctor picked up this little communicator thing in his pocket.
"What is that" I asked inspecting it?
"This is how we are going to contact Amy if I remembered to put the batteries in" the Doctor said looking at it. He turned it on.
"Earth to Pond, I repeat Earth to Pond" the Doctor tried to see if Amy would answer.
"DOCTOR" I heard Amy squeal.
"AMY" I squeaked back.
"DARCY, YOUR BOTH ALIVE THAT'S WONDERFUL" Amy said.
"Oi don't break my new earpiece" the Doctor said rubbing his ears that where getting irritated by Amy and I's high pitched voices.
"Sorry" I heard Amy retort on the other line.
"Give me that" I said ripping it out of his ear.
"So everything going ok for you" I asked?
"Well let's just say I'm not having the best of times" Amy said I could hear a weird rumbling noise in the Tardis. The Doctor grabbed it from me and we both argued about who should talk into it.
"Oi you two stop fighting like a bunch of five years olds and remember what's important right now me being stuck in the Tardis" Amy said. The Doctor won and spoke into it. The Doctor started to explain to Amy what the plan was now.
"And it is vitally important that whoever it is upstairs doesn't know who or what I am, so no sonicing" the Doctor said now jumping on the bed with this huge smile on his face. I just laughed at him.
"Also it's important we don't get kicked out either" I said glaring at him and he jumped off the bed.
"You know if anyone were hearing this right now they would think we were speaking complete gibberish. I guess the plan is for Darcy and I to lay low and try to be completely normal" the Doctor said trying to rub gel into his hair.
"Ha" Amy and I laughed in unison.
"What" the Doctor asked?
"Have you seen you" Amy told him.
"Oh so that's how it's going to be you two aren't going to help me at all" the Doctor asked?
"Well first thing bow tie get rid" Amy said.
"Bow ties are cool" I said defending the Doctor. I could totally sense that Amy just rolled her eyes at what I just said.
"Thank you. Now come on you two I'm a normal bloke what do normal blokes do" he asked?
"Drink, go to the pub" I told him in a fake British accent which made me laugh at myself.
"Watch telly and play football" Amy added.
"Okay I could do those things I'm not good at them but I could do them" the Doctor agreed. There was another loud noise that came from upstairs.
"What was that" I asked? The Doctor looked at me strange.
"What" I asked?
"You just said 'What was that' 4 times" the Doctor explained.
"I don't have a stutter problem if that's what you mean" I told him. He looked at his watch.
"Hmm interesting a localized time loop whatever is happening upstairs is affecting the Tardis" he said. I could hear Amy scream on the other line obviously things weren't going so well in the Tardis.
"So doesn't sound great but nothing to worry about" Amy lied.
"Just keep the zig zag plotter on 4 that will protect you" The Doctor told her.
"Now we are not sure how long we are going to be down here so I'll have to check in with you every once in awhile" the Doctor said hanging up.
"So now that, that is fixed we have to deal with one other problem" I told him.
"What" he asked? I pointed at the bed which obviously could fit only one person.
"Right you take it this night I'll take the floor" he offered.
"Are you sure" I asked even though I really did want to sleep in the bed.
"Yeah besides I have other things to do tonight" he said.
"Ok then goodnight" I told him getting in the bed.
"Night sweetie" he laughed at our cover and then kissed me on the forehead. And with that I fell asleep of course I was woken up a bit in the night by the Doctor working on something but just covered my head with the pillow to block out the noise. When I officially woke up the Doctor was gone. I stumbled out of the bedroom to find Craig waiting outside the bathroom door. I could hear the Doctor singing loudly in the shower.
"Hmmm the voice of an angel isn't it" I said sarcastically. Craig knocked on the door.
"How long are you going to be in there" he asked?
"I don't know I like a good long soak" the Doctor said.
"Don't drain out Venice with all the water your using" I told him. There was a thumping noise upstairs. Craig and I both looked up.
"I'm going to go check it out" Craig said to me. Of course since I was still half awake and like always didn't care about anything till I had breakfast. I walked back out into the hallway and the Doctor ran into me spilling my cereal all over me.
"Oh my god why are you in a towel" I shouted at him and thank god not seeing anything. Wow this was awkward
"Why did you let him go" the Doctor shouted running out to where Craig went still in the towel with a toothbrush in his hand. I looked into the bathroom and saw his sonic screwdriver which is what he had probably meant to grab in a toothbrush holder. I grabbed it and put it in my pants pocket then I followed him holding my now empty cereal bowl. The Doctor pointed the toothbrush upstairs.
"Is that my toothbrush" Craig asked?
"Yes, you talked to the man upstairs. What did he look like" the Doctor asked?
"More normal than you do" Craig said looking at the Doctor's wild hair.
"Sorry just thought you might be in danger" the Doctor apologized.
"Well next time I am you can come save me with my toothbrush" he said. The phone rang and Craig left.
"Looking for this" I said handing him his sonic screwdriver.
"Yes right um I meant to grab that" he said.
"Sure you did" I said nodding. I heard the front door open behind us.
"Oh um sorry is this a bad time" the person who just answered said. The Doctor and I turned around and saw this woman which I recognized as Sophie from Craig's fridge.
"No sorry I'm the Doctor" the Doctor said kissing Sophie on both cheeks then walking back into the living room.
"Hi I'm Darcy I'm his friend girl, I mean girlfriend I'm his girlfriend" I told her. She looked at me and then at the Doctor walking into the living room with this look that told me she thought we were both insane. And who could blame her the Doctor was wearing nothing but a towel, and I was wearing a wet shirt and an empty cereal bowl. Yeah I know we totally looked like a normal couple. Sophie and I both walked into the living room.
"Listen we are one down in our pub league could you take my mates spot" Craig asked the Doctor.
"Pub league a drinking game" the Doctor guessed.
"No football" Craig explained.
"Right yes, sure I'll do it I think I'm good at it" the Doctor said going to the fridge.
"You saved my life" Craig thanked him. I followed the Doctor to the fridge.
"So you play Sophie" the Doctor asked pouring some milk into a bowl.
"Oh no I just stand on the sidelines" she said.
"Yeah she's like my mascot" he said. Oh shouldn't have said that I thought to myself.
"Mascot" Sophie asked?
"Yeah because I can't take a date" he said.
"I didn't say I was your date" she said. The Doctor and I looked at each other probably thinking the same thing AWKWARD.
"Put some clothes on" I told the Doctor hitting him lightly on the stomach then taking the cereal box he was just about to use. He glared at me and obeyed by going to the room and putting some clothes on.
"So what do you think" Craig asked Sophie obviously thinking I wasn't listening because I looked like I was texting on my phone when actually I was just flipping through the pictures on it which is what I always did when I was bored.
"They're a bit odd but my is he gorgeous" she whispered.
"Ah hem" I coughed. I saw her look at me and I gave her a fake smile. I got up and knocked on the door to the Doctor and I's room.
"I'm dressed" he said. I opened the door and walked in. I could see he had a jersey on but it was well backwards.
"Hmm football very nice, totally normal" Amy said on the communicator.
"Hi Amy" I told her.
"Hi Darcy" she greeted.
"Right now football that's the one with the sticks right" he asked the both of us.
"No it's the one where you try and get the ball to the end zone and make a touchdown" I said but mentally kicked myself for forgetting I was in England.
"OH god you two are hopeless" I heard Amy huff out. Eventually after Amy explained the actual game of football to us we left and went to the park. And the Doctor awkwardly introduced himself to the team. Before he ran out onto the field he threw me his jacket.
"I guess I'll just wear it" I said to Sophie as we watched the game he was actually quite good well that's a lie he was really good. He is actually the reason why the team won.
"This is yours" I said handing him back the jacket.
"Thank you" he said putting it on.
"You were amazing next week we are so going to annihilate them" one of the players said handing the Doctor and I sodas.
"No violence do you hear me I'm the Doctor I'm the oncoming storm" the Doctor said in an angry tone.
"Didn't mean that way" I whispered.
"Oh you meant just beat them in a football match right lovely" he said smiling. While we were walking back I realized something weird was going on because it was way to quiet. Craig and Sophie were walking in front of me. I turned around to see the Doctor actually talking to the little girl that had been following me everywhere in time the last place I had seen her was before Rory died. The two of them looked really into the conversation. I started to walk towards them but the Doctor held a hand up stopping me. The little girl looked at me smiled and waved and continued talking to him. I couldn't decide whether to move on without him or not. They both looked at me and did this little shooing motion with their hands at exactly the same time. That's weird I thought to myself walking forward. I put my little headphones into my ears and when I got back to the flat I just hung out in the Doctor and I's room. Eventually he came back with all this junk in his hands.
"So what was that about" I asked him?
"What was what about" he said trying to change the conversation.
"You know the little girl. You're starting to see her now to" I said to him.
"Right yes now let's not focus on that let's focus on this" he said motioning to the stuff he was carrying.
"Okay" I questioned thinking to myself why he wanted to change the subject.
"So now what's this supposed to do" I asked watching him make the junk into I don't know what.
"Well if I've got it right this is going to save our lives" he said getting amazed at his work.
"Really you're going to save us with toilet plungers and traffic cones" I asked looking at the stuff. He glared at me.
"Oh yes this is looking beautiful" he said after awhile and the junk turned into like this huge pinwheel I guess. The Doctor and I stayed in our room doing nothing because Craig had told us he wanted privacy with Sophie.
"I can't stand it" the Doctor whined now tangled in wires.
"You're awfully impatient" I said to him enjoying watching Netflix on my ipod.
"Read a book or something" I told him. He picked up one of the few books the previous owner had left behind.
"Read it, girl dies" the Doctor said throwing the book across the room. He did the same with the rest of the books not holding back any spoilers for what happened in the ending.
"I'm going out there and asking him about this" he said getting up opening the door with a normal screwdriver in his hand. I peeked out and saw Craig and Sophie talking really intimately.
"Wait Doctor don't" I said but he kept going on. I jumped on his back and covered his mouth before he could say anything.
"First the Royal Wedding now this" he whispered.
"Shh" I said trying to eavesdrop on what Craig and Sophie were talking about.
"I think we should…" Craig pondered
"Oh my god he's about to say I love you to her and ask her out on a date" I whispered tightening my arms around the Doctors neck.
"Choking" he coughed out.
"Shh" I said straining my hearing.
"Sorry hello I just have one question" the Doctor said walking in with me still on his back and he dropped me on the ground.
"I thought you two were going out" Craig said a bit angry.
"We were but I can't find the on switch on this it needs to be more sonicky" the Doctor told him. I rolled my eyes.
"You two really should go now" Craig suggested.
"Yeah we will" I said trying to drag the Doctor out.
"Oh I don't mind they can stay have a couple of drinks with us" Sophie said.
"We can stay" the Doctor asked?
"No we can't" I said nodding my head towards the door.
"But I really think we should" the Doctor said sitting down on of the couches. I eventually followed him and sat down next to him. So Sophie decided to tell us about her dream job of working with animals and the Doctor of course encouraged her. He tried to drink the wine we had but immediately spit it back out.
"So if you want to go live with monkeys why not? I mean what's really keeping you here" the Doctor asked?
"I don't know" Sophie said looking at Craig. Oh dear god just go out with each other already I thought to myself.
"So how'd you two meet" Sophie kindly asked?
"High school" I said once the Doctor and I had one of those eye contact conversations deciding on what to say.
"Oh that's just where tell me how" Sophie urged on.
"Well um it's hard to explain. Basically we uh-"
"We saved her school" the Doctor admitted.
"By doing a charity drive that's adorable" Sophie guessed.
"Yeah let's go with that" I said. Technically he had saved my school from a bunch of Hidronians that tried to make my school commit mass suicide but you know that's about the same thing as a charity drive. Eventually Sophie went home and the Doctor and I went back to working on his thing.
"So is it working" Amy asked through the communicator.
"Hopefully" the Doctor answered twirling the pinwheel.
"Darcy you're awfully quiet" Amy said.
"I'm mad because the Doctor couldn't keep his big nose out our roommates business" I said.
"What" the Doctor said all surprised.
"Yes you did they were about to have a real life Oprah confession moment and you had to go interrupt it" I told him.
"You could have stopped me" he said.
"I did by jumping on you" I retorted. Amy was awkwardly silent while we argued.
"Well you need to be stronger" he said.
"You need to be less nosey" I told him.
"Why is it important that they get together" he said. Because they remind me of us I thought to myself. I totally got where Craig was coming from I mean I haven't told the Doctor how I felt about him yet.
"Because it is" I argued.
"What happened to getting back on the Tardis" he said.
"That's important to" I told him.
"Right but instead your playing matchmaker" the Doctor said. That was it I didn't feel like arguing anymore so I grabbed a pillow and some blankets and walked out of the room slamming the door behind me sleeping on the couch for the night. I hadn't realized till when I was in the living room that the Doctor was quite a noisy person. I could hear him almost all night working on that contraption. I eventually fell asleep. The next morning I woke up back in the bed in our bedroom. I looked over the side of the bed and saw the Doctor sleeping on the floor starting to wake up.
"Good morning" he said stretching. I smiled at him giving him a look saying sorry I sort of lost it last night.
"So did I sleep walk into here" I asked him? He laughed.
"No that couch was way too small so I carried you here" he told me.
"Thanks" I said lying my head back down on the pillow. I heard the Doctor open the door. When I woke up again I heard the Doctor running around.
"What's going on" I asked just standing in the hallway watching him run back and forth.
"Right our roommate may be dead" he said going into Craig's room stuffing something that looked very gross into his mouth. Craig eventually woke up. The Doctor and I walked out of the room. He grabbed my hand and started to drag me out the door.
"Where are we going" I asked half awake.
"We are going to do our friend a favor" he said. Apparently Craig had some big meeting and was going to miss it for almost dying so the Doctor toke his place instead at the meeting while I sat at a secretary's desk and doodle on a piece of paper. It was actually quite easy being a secretary though whoever called I would just put them on hold and forget about them. Eventually this very important looking man came out and walked up to me.
"Could you please explain to me why half of my clients have been on hold listening to 80's hit's for 3 hours" he asked me?
"Eh no hablo ingles signor lo siento adios" I said in Spanish getting up from the desk and running. I went down to the floor the Doctor was on and just hung out with him the rest of the day. Craig had figured out about what the Doctor did and wasn't too happy about it. When we got back to the flat we saw this cat walking down the stairs.
"Awww hello little kitty" I said picking it up and petting it.
"Have you been upstairs" the Doctor asked the cat? It meowed.
"Oh you've seen people go up there" the Doctor said. It meowed again.
"And they never came down oh that's bad that's very bad" he said now petting it also. I held in my laughter. It meowed again.
"What else did he say cat whisperer" I asked him? I heard a door open and the Doctor and I looked up from the cat and saw an angry Craig.
"Hello" the Doctor said.
"I can't take this anymore I want you two to go" he said.
"What" I asked?
"What did we do" the Doctor continued.
" You two talk to cats, everybody loves you two, he's better at football than me, and now Sophie's all like ohhh monkey's monkey's and then there is this" Craig said opening the door to the Doctor and I's room to show the little contraption.
"It's art" I lied.
"A statement on modern society and isn't it awful" the Doctor added.
"These have been the 3 weirdest days of my life" Craig whined.
"They'll get a lot weirder when we leave. You have to listen to me we can't leave. Now I'm about to do something I'm going to regret so keep your mouth shut. Right background info" the Doctor told Craig grabbing him by the shirt and then he head butted him the same way he did to me when he showed me how to drive the Tardis. It was much funnier to watch it happen to someone else.
"Shut up it is not funny it's painful" the Doctor grabbing his forehead.
"You're a….from….and you drive a Tardis" Craig gasped pointing at the sky.
"Yes I know now I'm gonna tell you why Darcy and I are here" the Doctor said head butting Craig again. I kept laughing.
"That's why you're here, and that's a scanner" Craig said pointing at the contraption.
"Oh that's what that is" I said realizing it. Craig kept rambling and eventually the Doctor covered his mouth and screamed.
"SHUT UP" The boys kept walking around the room rubbing their foreheads.
"Yeah I know it hurts" I told Craig.
"I am never, ever, ever, ever doing that again" the Doctor complained.
"Okay Amy what's the readouts on the building" he asked the communicator.
"Haven't found them yet" she said.
"That's okay I have a small idea from what the cat told me" the Doctor said.
"Excuse me cat" I asked?
"Yes his name is Jenkins he said that upstairs is a time engine and the owner of it has been trying to find someone to launch it" the Doctor explained. There was a loud noise. And the three of us ran upstairs. On our way up we saw Sophie's keys in the doors and realized that she was the one dying upstairs. This made us all increase our speeds.
"Wait Doctor, Darcy STOP" Amy shouted.
"Are you upstairs" she asked?
"Just about to go in" I told her.
"But you can't be" she said.
"But we are" the Doctor argued.
"There is no upstairs I've seen the plans it's a one story house" Amy said. The Doctor opened the door and I saw what looked like a badly made version of the Tardis.
"It's some ones attempt to build the Tardis" the Doctor said looking around the room.
"So it used a perception filter" I guessed correctly. We heard Sophie scream on the other side of the room. We saw she was being pulled towards one of the panels on the faux Tardis and the Doctor let the thing let her go.
"You will help me" An old man said appearing out of nowhere.
"Alright let's see. Hi I'm captain Troy Handsome of the national rescue society state your emergency" The Doctor asked?
"The ship has crashed and a pilot is required" the man said.
"So you're the emergency crash system and you've been luring people so you can try them out" the Doctor said pointing his sonic screwdriver at the man who then turned into a little girl and went in between forms.
"The correct pilot has been found" it finally said.
"Oh crap" I said figuring out it wanted the Doctor.
"I was afraid you would say that" the Doctor said. And then the panels started to pull him towards it. I helped in trying to pull him back but it was unsuccessfully working. The Doctor started to explain how if he touched it the whole solar system would explode.
"Wait Craig you could shut down the engine by putting your hand on another one of these it only seems to like you" the Doctor said. We were still trying to pull away from it.
"Will it work" Craig asked?
"Don't do it" Sophie said.
"Yes" the Doctor answered.
"Are you sure" Craig asked?
"Yes" I answered for the Doctor.
"Are you lying" he asked the Doctor?
"Of course I am" he said.
"Works for me Geronimo" Craig said putting his hand down on another steering wheel thing and the one that had control of the Doctor let go of him blasting us backwards.
"Craig come on now tell me why you want to stay here, why you won't leave" the Doctor asked him?
"I don't know" he sputtered out. I slapped him.
"Yes do" I shouted at him.
"Alright Sophie, I stay because of Sophie because I love her" he shouted.
"I do to" Sophie said all excited and then they had their little Oprah confession moment.
"Enough of talking for God sakes kiss the girl" the Doctor shouted.
"Kiss the girl" Amy and I shouted along with each other. The two kissed each other.
"Oh my god you did it" Amy said all happy on the other line. And the Doctor and I hugged each other jumping up and down. The room started to shake.
"Oh we've got to go. Come on you two lovebirds let's get out of here" I said grabbing the Doctors hand as we all ran out of the house. We went outside and the whole top floor turned into a spaceship and disappeared. The Doctor and I went and packed what little we had and told Amy how to get back to where were. We tried to sneak out while Craig and Sophie made out on the couch but the stopped us.
"Are you two trying to sneak out" Sophie asked?
"Yes didn't want to ruin the moment again" the Doctor said.
"Besides we have to go" I told her.
"Well I want you two to have these. I want you to keep them even though you won't come back" Craig said to the Doctor handing him our keys. We said our goodbyes and we saw Amy outside waiting for us leaning against the Tardis. I ran to her and hugged her.
"Oh my god I've missed you" I said hugging her tightly.
"Oh me to" she said. The Doctor walked in.
"It's good to be home" he sighed and was already starting up the Tardis.
"Right well we need to go back in time so you can send me that note" the Doctor pointed at Amy.
"You got a pen" Amy asked?
"Check in one of the pockets" he said placing his jacket on a chair walking off somewhere.
"Oh and make sure it's red" I told her leaning against the consul. She went into one of the pockets and grabbed out her engagement ring. I immediately snatched it out of her hands.
"Did something happen between you and the Doctor" she asked?
"No" I said stuffing it in my jeans pocket. She gave me a look of disbelief and grabbed the pen and wrote the note.
So I hoped you liked it. Review pretty please if you did like it. Also yay the next chapters are going to be about the Pandorica and trust me some big stuff is going to go down in those chapters :D.
