Chapter 25-Gazing Into Each Other's Eyes

Rose held back her blinking. The Doctor was not beating her at this staring contest, not in a million years.
"Come on, Rose," the Doctor said. "How long can you keep this up?"
"Why? Got some dust in your eye?" Rose replied.
"Don't get snarky with me."
"Don't try and make me lose."
They both smiled, and the Doctor's smile made Rose smile wider. Their staring contest turned more into her staring into his eyes, not just trying not to blink.
The Doctor, however, caught Rose blink and jumped up.
"I win! Now, can we stop this silly game and move onto something funner?"
"I-I suppose," Rose replied, standing up slowly.
