(Fair waring, this was somewhat just thrown together but bare with me. It is neccesary. Also I gave myself a bit of freedom, so dont worry it wont happen again, just wanted to do it. If you dont like a few of the scenes in this chapter, please stay with the story, its a one time thing.)
Sunlight filtered gently through the curtains, falling upon the rumpled blankets and sheets. Within the disarray lay myself, tangled up in Doctor's arms. Not just his arms though, our bodies were pressed and wound around eachother in a way that left no space between us,whatsoever. I had been drifting in and out of dreams for about an hour. Each time that my eyes fluttered open, even if just for an infintesimal moment, I was afraid that everthing had just been a wonderful dream. Getting my Doctor back, his proposal, months of preperation and anguish, our wedding, and last night, Oh, I hoped it wasnt all some beautiful wonderful dream. I would give anything for it to be real, absolutely anything.
The worst part of that was, it was a dream once, actually many times. All of it. Ever since that awful day, the worst of my life,when I couldnt hold on anymore and I was torn, kicking and screaming from Doctor, and flung here to this parallel world. Evers ince then I dramed of im coming back and taking me away in his beautiful blue box. In some dreams, we got married at some point, others we were simply together, that was all I really wanted. Like all dreams though, they had to end. I'd wake up with a pillow held tightly in my arms, or a fistful of sheets in my hand, where Doctor should have been.
For the next moment, and each time I hoped the moment would last longer, I would hold on to the memory of the dream. I could imagine that it was really his hand, or his body touching mine, I could feel his skin, and suit. Eventually I felt that it was just sheets, just a pillow, and the tears would flow, harder and harder, wracking me with sobs. It wasnt Doctor holding me tight, it was just a pillow, that I had to let go of, and get, to start a new day.
SO when I did have to let go, I did so as slowly and softly as possible, so I could imagine, just a moment longer that he was , I would have to get p, I had to go to work. Tears soaking my face as if drenched in water, the salt burned as it traveled down my cheeks. I would get ready, got o work and busy myself, not allowing a single moment to think of him, not until I got home again, because then I could dream, and for a while at least, be happy in memories. I lived for the end of each day, just to see him in my dreams once more.
I did try to date, but it didnt work. They each had one of his qualities, but too much, not enoug or something just wasnt quite right. So each had his turn, and I pretended I was happy, I didnt even have Mickey. I wanted Mickey in those days nearly as much as I wanted Doctor. Just smeone to tel me that it was alright. To hold me when I cried, but I was alone.
I was properly awake now, and forced myself to stop the erractic blinking that could make me see Doctor laying there next to me. THis time though, it wasnt my imagination. He was there, he was really there laying right next to me. Every agnozing moment with mum for the past few months, our glorious wedding and last night, it was all real. Gently I allowed my hand to trace his face, making my hair to his hair, each touch proving to me that he was really there. Finally I rested my hand on the back of my neck and just smiled at him.
Although I was content, knowing that Doctor was here, with me, forever, it being our honeymoon, I thought that I deserved more than that. He was still asleep, snoring softly, hardly loud enough to be heard, but his breath made his bangs flutter as if in a breeze. Keeping mdy hand on the back of his neck I leaned closer to him until our lips pressed together. I could feel his breath catch in his throat as I blocked his mouch so I moved my face away to allow him to breathe. His eyes were wide in shock from being jerked into consciousness in such a manner.
He sat up suddenly one hand on his neck, the other on his chest as he took fierce gulps of air. HE didnt seem to even notice me, and I worried that I hadnt woken up, that thsi wasnt even a dream, but that this was a nightmare. Where he was here, but I was gone. HE was panicking and i wanted to do something to let him know i was there, and although I was concerened about him he looked funny so I laughed at him, not harshly, just a laugh. Doctor looked at me and in that moment we both realized something, I realized that it wasnt a dream or a nightmare, and he realized how he had woken, by my kiss. His face going from one of utter fear and confusion to one of knowing, cleverness.
He smiled at me, clearly relaxing from his momentary fright of asphyxiation. IT was funny to him frightened by things like death, not in a serious manner, but in a moment like this where a human would know they were fine, but being so new to being human he didnt have any idea. Luckily, having a fear of death meant he was human enough to stay with me forever. As he smiled he wrapped an arm around me and pulled me down with him as he lay on the bed. My hand on his chest, head on his shoulder, I looked up at him, not with a morning greeting but a smile that I hoped expressed all the love I had ever felt for him converged into this moment. "Good morning Rose Tyler." He smirked, kissing my forehead,"Or Rose Smith as you are now." I thought for a moment"How about Rose Tyler-Smith?" I suggested. He nodded,"That works, but I still may be able to convince you otherwise." we both laughed at that. He turned slightly towards me, my head sliding to the pillow, hand still on his chest as he kissed me.
(INTERRUPTING AUTHOR LOL. Okay so I said that there would be a moment where I took some freedom that if you dont like dont worry its a one time thing? WEll that is right here right now, so be warned and enjoy! or not, but dont worry its not even all that long)
At first a gentle kiss, telling me he loved me, then it quickly became more passionate. He adjusted himself above me, supporting himself with arms on either side of my shoulders. My hands moved from his chest to his back, running my fingers along his skin. YOu would think fighting various monsters and aliens, along with all that running would make a man muscular, but Doctor was still so skinny! And had always been. I didnt mind, iknew he was strong, it just didnt show too much in his build.
AS my hands drifted up and down his back, Doctor began to shift the location of his lips. Abandoning my lips he moved to my jawline, slowly, agonizingly slowly moving down my neck. I felt my body heat furiously in excitement of what I knew was coming next.( i told ya it was short)
I felt my head practically slap my pillow whe I finally allowed myself to relax, while Doctor gently pulled me to him. I turned on my side, adjusted myself so that my head on on his chest. My mind drifted to the day before, or I think it was the day before that, our wedding day and smiled."You were right." I said. HE looked at me with both a curiosu and knowing expression."Oh yes? What about this time?" I laughed. "You said it would be worth the wait." I told him. Confusion gone he adopted a cleverly smug expression. He smiled saying."Shall we see what the more Barcelona has to offer?" he asked it the way he would anyother adventure on his TARDIS. Not only that but when we first met and he entranced me with ideas of what the galaxy had to offer. I smield and intertwined our fingers."Yes. LEts have an adventure." He squeezed my hand before we both got up to get dressed.
I went to my closet and picked out a simple tshirt, almost grabbed a jacket, but it was too warm outside. A pair of jeans, trainers and a hat. AS an after thought I exchanged the trainers for the flats I had worn last night. I could hear Doctor talking to someone, I assumed on his mobile.
(this is not finished! but i wantt o post it for you all to read. I will let you know when i post the rest of it)
I went back to the bedroom, as you had to go through it to reach the kitchen, front door or nearly anything in the house for that matter. As my gaze fell upon the bed, wiht its rumpled sheets and blankets thrown to far corners of the room, I leaned forward to pick things up from the floor and got to work tidying up. When I was finished I surveyed my work and nodded self satisfactorily.
Wanting to search for Doctor I turned on my heel then paused, the smell of burning butter and toast. At least I think that's what it was. The acrid smell was sweet like butter and doughy like bread but everything smelled like it was covered in a smokey tang. I followed the strange door to the kitchen and smiled trying not to laugh at the scene before me.
Doctor was carefully observing a skillet containing the strange door which looked like burnt bread and over cooked possibly also burnt butter. He looked so determined to figure it out how to stop the ingredients from burning. I stepped over and peeked into the skillet, at this point the bread seemed redeemable."Want some help with that?" I offered, he shook his head abruptly ,"I can do this. I can save a species from near extinction I can cook toast." I smiled thinking to myself of the proper way to toast bread and how far off Doctor was. He turned his head and saw me still standing there," go on and sit down its nearly ready." I nodded."Alright then" and took a place at the table.
Not long after Doctor slid a plate in front of me that was nothing like the near disaster I had witnessed earlier. There was still a piece of slightly charred toast drizzled with sugar and cinnamon topped with berries. I looked at Doctor incredulously ."you can cook?" He took a seat across from me at the table and smirked self importantly ."Course I can." I simply shook my head in amazement and ate. Not only could he cook but he was pretty good at it too. Breakfast was delicious. Being the perfect gentleman he took my plate from me when I finished. I went to the bathroom to make sure my hair looked alright before we went out then joined Doctor in the main room.
"Where to first?" He asked me holding out his hand, I took it happily and bit my lip as I thought."I have no idea." I answered."We'll than," he said opening the door and leading me out into the sunshine,"lets go exploring." I smiled and followed after him.
Wandering a new set of streets we window shopped, sometimes actually going in to buy our favourites before continuing on our way. Half way down a street that bustled with people I stopped at the sight of a little girl on the side of the road. She was sitting there with a box that stated"Puppies for sale". I turned to Doctor,"Lets go have a look." I said heading towards the girl. When we came over the little girl began a speech she must have said over and over that day."hello miss, hello mister. My dog had puppies and its not that we're poor or anything we just couldn't keep all of the puppies." Then she looked down and kind of shuffled her feet"All the good ones are gone though." I smiled at her."That's alright do you mind showin me the ones ya got?" Doctor whispered in my ear"Do you want a dog?" I turned to him."I might. I'll have to look." Turning back to the little girl I saw a scraggly little pup in her arms. Her sleeve hiding the little things face."I'm sorry miss. He's not too pretty to look at, her had a run in with papa's mower when he started walkin". Doctor now looked curious, I felt awful being glad the puppy had gotten hit by a mower but knowing my clever Doctor he'd want this one over the others."I'm sure he'd be just fine for us, can we see his face?" The little girl nodded and adjusted her hold on the puppy to show is his face. I let out an empathetic gasp, wanting to hold the puppy instantly. His little face had a mash up of scars where he had been hit miraculously his eyes were saved. His nose and part of the muzzle seemed to be chopped off though. Doctor held put his hands for the puppy and examined it carefully. He then held it out to me."what do you think?" He asked, gently I took the puppy and rubbed its head softly he whined softly and pressed himself against me. I smiled at Doctor."He's perfect." With his clever smile that made me wonder if I was missing something he spoke to the girl and paid for the puppy. She thanked him, grabbed her box and hurried off.
Doctor kept up his smile as we continued walking."okay what is it? You've been smiling like that since we got the little guy what is it?" He responded"Remember when we almost went to the planet Barcelona?" I nodded"Yeah so?" "So, " he continued"what did I say was special about Barcelona?" I gasped in realization "Noseless dogs!" He nodded, his smile turned to one of triumph. I kissed the little puppy's head "We were meant to find you then"
( tada! I did it! Comment below what the puppy should be named! I will choose from the comments my favorite! The chosen namer will have the next chapter dedicated to then!)
