Chapter 59 - Dreaming of the TARDIS

The Doctor popped back into the closet inside of their flat. He was extremely lightheaded from all of the beer he had drank.

He rubbed his face and moaned. "Ugh. Drinking games. I hate that Jack. Damn him." he complained.

He undressed and got into the shower. It was 5:32 am. As he washed himself, he got a good look at his arm that had mysteriously healed. He got out and put on his pajama pants and a t-shirt. He brushed his teeth to get the beer taste out of his mouth.

He turned out the bathroom light and walked down the hall to check the diamond. It was still showing green, blue and white. Satisfied, he looked in on Genie, Tony and Zeus. They all seemed to be sleeping peacefully. Zeus lifted his head and asked where he had been.

The Doctor whispered, "Dealing with some stuff. How have things been here?"

Zeus barked quietly.

The Doctor laughed, "Yeah, I told Jackie to come home and sleep. Go to sleep, Zeus. I'll give you an extra biscuit in the morning."

Zeus rolled over and wagged his tail.

The Doctor went back into his bedroom and found Rose sleeping. She was laying on her side with her head on a pillow as if it was his chest. He smiled as he lay down next to her and covered himself up with the duvet. He lay there with his head propped up on his fist, and watched her sleep for a while. She looked so beautiful. He ran his hand across her hair. She slept on. He lay his head on the pillow, and put his hand on her cheek.

The Doctor was back on the TARDIS in the control room. He rubbed his head. "Rose is dreaming about the TARDIS?"

He looked around and didn't see her. "Rose?" he called.

He started down the staircase and walked down the hallway to where her room used to be. He knocked on the door. "Rose?"

She opened the door and looked at him. "Are you really here? Or am I dreaming you?"

He smiled as he took both of her hands and pushed her gently into the wall. He held her hands next to her head as he kissed her.

'I could kiss you all the time. Even in your dreams. I'm so glad you let me kiss you. It's so intoxicating to all of my senses.' he told her.

'Oh, this is really you! You've not been in my dreams in a while.'

'It's really me, sweetheart. You told me to wake you up, but you are so beautiful sleeping. I just had to watch you for a while. I hope that's alright.'

She smiled as they continued their snog. 'You know it is. You make me feel so special when you tell me stuff like that.'

'Sweetheart, you are the most important. I think I'm getting high off just kissing you.'

'Is that the reason you have me pressed against the wall?'

He smiled, "That, is to keep you from running away."

She giggled at him. "You know I'm not going to run away from you."

He smiled as he cupped her face with his hands. "Right. Forgive me." He told her as he leaned back in and continued to snog her. She could feel his love, enjoyment, and his lust.

Rose told him, 'Press me in the wall anytime and kiss me. It's so hot.'

He smiled and he continued to kiss her, 'Oh, I'll never say no to you. Not even in your dreams.'

She ran her hands through his hair. "Oh, I love that." He moaned.

'I'm still sleeping. Can we take this any further?' Rose asked him.

He stopped kissing her and looked at her in surprise. He bit his bottom lip. "Well, sortof. We could, but it will...just make us...um... more... I'm sorry I can't think tonight."

Rose laughed at him. "Frustrated! We'll be frustrated."

He laughed. "Yes! That's it. It's not real. It's just a dream. Although, I won't lie. I've dreamed about it."

He started kissing her neck and chest.

Rose laughed, "Was I any good in your dreams?"

His muffled voice from between her breasts said, "Oh my woman, you have no idea. A goddess. Just like in real life."

Rose laughed, "Okay, you are drunk or something. A goddess? I'm sleeping so I can't tell clearly, but you seem a bit...off."

He raised up and smiled at her. "Damn. You are good!"

She pointed at him. "What in the hell? Where have you been?"

"This is getting to be a pattern with me, isn't it?" he gritted his teeth. "I think I'm going to blame this one on Jack."

"Jack?" Rose asked him.

"Yeah, the damn drinking game was his idea. Or maybe it was Tony's. Not sure."

"You are drinking with my brother?"

"What? No! That damn weapons developer from New York. He came and helped us out tonight at the hospital. He's not too terrible. He sure does think a lot of you."

Rose was confused. "You played a drinking game with Jack and Tony?"

"Yes and Jake. And don't believe anything they might tell you in the morning!" he demanded.

Rose laughed at him. "You are so funny. I don't even want to know."

"You're right. You don't." he told her as he stepped back and rubbed his face. "Although, I think Jack and Jake went home together."

Rose woke up. "They did what?!"

The Doctor rubbed his head as he lay back on the pillow. "Aww, shit. Don't do that."

Rose raised up and looked at him. "Jack and Jake? Are you kidding me right now?"

He laughed and rubbed his head. "I'm not! You know how Jack Harkness is! I debated about even bothering when Michelle ordered him those clothes this afternoon! Did they ever even get here?"

Rose waved her hand and shook her head. "Yeah, when you were asleep. Don't change the subject."

He ran his hand through his hair and looked at her. "Jake's a grown man. Let them be happy. I could honestly care less."

Rose laughed as she lay down on his chest. He held her and rubbed her back. "Your friends."

"Hell, those are your friends!" the Doctor told her.

He rubbed her back as they lay there. "Pete's fine. Still sleeping. I doubt he will even know we moved him. Everything went smoothly. Howie has Marines guarding Pete, and I have Quauhtin on duty there. He's safer than Howie at the moment."

Rose smiled. "Thank you. How about mum?"

"She's asleep in the other room. Pete asked me to make her come here and rest. I can't believe I talked her into so easily. She is so exhausted. And worried."

Rose raised up and looked at him. "I love you. You know that, right?"

He raised an eyebrow. "Yeah. What are you on about?"

"Nothing. I just needed to tell you that. I really do."

He smiled. "I know you do, sweetheart. I can feel it. Just as you can feel my love for you."

Rose smiled. "I love being joined. It's so much better than you described."

"I love it, too. That it creeps Jake out is a lovely bonus."

Rose smacked him playfully.

He looked at her. "You are wearing my t-shirt."

She smiled at him with her tongue in her teeth. "It smells like you."

"I'm sorry I wasn't here when you fell asleep. I hate that. I know you are used to me being here with you. I know it helps you sleep. I'll try to be here with you as much as I can from now on." he told her.

"I could feel you. I knew you were with me, even though you wasn't with me." Rose explained. "Wow. That's hard to explain."

He smiled as he rubbed his face. "See! I've been telling you for weeks! English is a very limited language. Most of these damn Earth languages are."

Rose rubbed his chest. "I suppose your language has a lot more pronouns."

"Has to. Otherwise, we would have had no damn clue what we were talking about." he said as he lay his arm across his eyes.

Rose leaned down and kissed his lips. He moaned under her kisses. 'Oh, I love kissing you.'

Rose smiled and sat up. 'You are tired?'

He smiled at her and sat up. "Seems a waste to have these silk sheets on this bed and still wear clothes."

She took off the t-shirt she wore and pulled off her knickers and tossed them in the floor. She pointed at her breasts. "You want some of this, Old Man? You can have it."

He bit his lip and smiled. "Damn. What a woman! I want all of it."

He took off his shirt and pulled off his pajama pants quickly and tossed them next to the bed.

He rolled over to face her and rub her breasts with one of his hands.

She leaned in and rubbed her nose to his. She whispered, "The doors are locked, right?"

He whispered back. "Yes, ma'am. Children are asleep. Everyone is safe. And do you know what?"

She smiled and asked, "What?"

"I've looked forward to this all day." he told her as he lay his hand on her cheek and kissed her. She ran her hands through his hair making it stand up in every direction. He rolled over and lay on top of her.

'Oh this silk is wonderful. Feels like your skin.' He told her as he ran his hands up and down her body.

He raised his head up. "Wait! Forgetting something!" He told her.

She looked at him as he closed his eyes tight in thought. "Remind me, Rose. I said silk sheets, music, what else?"

Rose smiled, "Candles. But don't get up."

He looked down at her. "Hang on. Let me see if I can still do this. I used to be able to."

He closed his eyes tight and whistled quietly. Candles lit all around the room. Rose looked around and smiled. "How did you do that?"

"A little trick I learned somewhere. Believe it or not, not a Time Lord thing." he smiled as he leaned down to kiss her.

He remembered and raised his head back up. "Oh! Music!" He said as he took the remote he had laying in the bed and turned on the stereo quietly.

"Shhh...I don't want to wake anyone up. So, no screaming." he teased Rose as 'Remind Me' from Royksopp played.

He looked surprised. "That's not my music."

Rose laughed, "That's mine. I made a shagging playlist. We always listen to your crazy music. We're going to listen to mine tonight."

He smiled as he leaned down to kiss her. 'Fine with me.'

She ran her hands through his hair as they kissed. He moved his hand between her legs and dipped his fingers inside her.

'Oh my, you are so wet.' he told her. 'Have you been dreaming about me while I was gone?'

'Of course I have. As much as you have postponed this today, I couldn't help it!'

He put himself inside of her and thrust deeply. Rose moaned as he kissed her neck and chest.

"Oh, that's amazing." she whispered to him.

'Tell me. What did we do in your dreams? What would you like me to do?'

Rose sent him an image in his head. He raised up and smiled at her. "Oh, I love that. Is that what you want?"

Rose giggled, "I know you love that. Go ahead. You're so good at it."

"A professional, woman!" he told her as he smiled.

He kissed her and pushed her hands above her head. He kissed down to her waist and spread her legs. He whispered something without Rose hearing it. He ran his thumbs around the outside of her to open her up more. He dove his mouth into her and slid his tongue inside of her. He bit her clit gently and rolled his tongue around it. Rose moaned.

'Don't get loud, woman!' he told her.

She panted and put her hands on her face.

'So much better than I dreamed.' Rose told him as she panted and moaned.

He continued his work. Nibbling the side of her opening and running his fingers inside of her. Then he put his mouth completely over her opening and sucked. She moaned and threw the pillow over her face to muffle her screams.

'Oh, all of this sweet candy is flowing here. I love this.' he told her.

She continued to pant out of control. 'Oh, please.'

'Begging me for more?' he asked her as he continued to lick her.

She moaned into the pillow.

He looked up at her and laughed. He whispered something quietly.

"Sweetheart." he told her as he took the pillow off of her face. "You're there."

She panted as he leaned down to kiss her. He slipped back inside of her and stroked deeply.

He moaned as she ran her nails down his back. He pulled her leg up behind his back and held it. He moaned as he continued to stroke. 'Is this alright?' He asked.

'Oh yes. Oh, that's so good.' Rose told him. He could feel her pleasure. She could feel his.

He kissed her neck and whispered to her, "I don't want to ever take this for granted that I can touch you. We've almost lost one another so many times. What we have is so amazing. I love you so much."

Rose felt herself get warm as he finished inside of her. She held him as he lay on her chest panting. "You say the most wonderful things to me. I love it. I love you."

He raised up and looked in her eyes. "I promised myself that I would tell you everyday how much I love you. What you mean to me. I remember what it was like when I thought we couldn't be together. And then we were together, but I was losing you. I don't want to take this for granted. I want to do this right. I don't want there to ever be any question in your mind how I feel about you."

Rose smiled, "Sweetheart, there's no question. You know I feel the same way."

He smiled, "Oh, I do know. I can feel it. It's the most amazing feeling I've ever experienced. I don't think I could ever go back to the way I was before. How sweet it is to be loved by you."
