Chapter 24: Rest, My Doctor.
A/N: The title sounds cliche, I know. But I thought the Doctor deserves a break after everything without any down time. So, here we go!
Rose woke up.
Her vision was blurry, but she could see a busy Doctor standing over her. When her vision cleared, she saw his chocolate eyes looking at her.
"Good morning, Rose. How are you feeling?" The Doctor asked.
"Like i've been spending my last few days with Lake Demons." She responded.
"Well, let's fix that, shall we? You hungry?"
"Starving." She responded.
"I'll be back then."
About twenty minutes later, the Doctor showed up with a sandwich and crisps with water for Rose. She took them and tucked in. But the Doctor's stomach liked the smell of the food and growled.
Rose giggled and set her food down for a minute.
"Hungry much?" Rose asked.
"I guess. I've been stressed out with saving you and I guess I forgot to eat." The Doctor responded.
"When was the last time you ate?"
"About four days ago."
"Doctor! Go and eat something! Don't worry about me!"
"But..."
"But nothing! Go eat!"
The Doctor left, beaten by his injured companion. But he had to admit, he was very hungry.
He got himself something and went back to Rose.
"So,what did I miss?" Rose said with a mouthful of sandwich.
"You're in for a story. But if you really want to know..."
The Doctor told Rose everything. But he was worried about telling her that Madame Pomfrey wanted to kill her. He didn't think that would end well.
After he told her, Rose fell asleep, but not before telling the Doctor to do the same. He put up a fight, but he, in the end, was neglecting his own personal needs and so he went to sleep in the end.
Harry came into the classroom and went into the TARDIS. He found the med-bay and saw Rose sleeping. He turned, and saw his teacher sleeping on a chair on a wall opposite Rose's bed.
Rest, Doctor. You deserve it. Harry thought.
A/N: We're almost there! One more chapter! I hope you all had a good thanksgiving if you're from America, and I hope you all had a good week!
