Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an
orange sky.
The Doctor said he'd meet them back at the TARDIS later. Rose had been happy enough to drag Jack round the shops and markets, no doubt until Jack got distracted and wandered off. Though the planet was reasonably quiet and he'd know if those two got or made any trouble.
So he stood alone looking out to the horizon of the sky, he'd been here before. Possibly he'd even stood on that spot before, though not with this body he had now. It was familiar. Jack had given him a look, which of course had been dismissed.
"You know I think I may be wanted here." Jack laughed.
"You're not. Go have fun." He'd insisted.
The Doctor appreciated that. Jack for all his flaws was a good man at heart.
"It's pretty." Jack mused as he took in the surroundings, having eventually found the Doctor.
"I'm getting you a bell." The Doctor complained, he could only think of the human phrase. 'Talk of the devil.' Or in this case think. Though as he turned to Jack, he had to wonder how true that phrase was. But that would make Jack… Thankfully Jack spoke stopping that thought there.
"Little pink collar too?"
"Don't tempt me. But then Rose will get the wrong idea."
"She might want one too."
The Doctor frowned and gave Jack a look. "Where is she anyway? You haven't lost her have you?"
"No, she's back at the TARDIS trying to find places for everything she bought."
"Oh."
"Yeah." Jack nodded and hopped up to sit on the top of a rather weathered piece of wall. "Sky's orange." Jack commented joining the Doctor in gazing back out to the horizon, together they looked out in very comfortable silence, each of them lost to their own thoughts.
