So you like Disney?
- Set after "The Christmas Invasion."
Disclaimers - don't own them. Just had an idea. Borrowed them, have sent them back in the post, promise!
AN: Ok really random idea. But I'm rather random some times and it was in my head and the only way to stop the thought is to write it down and publish it.
A few days after Christmas, we find our two favourite travelling companions lounging about in the TARDIS. The last few days had been very much calm and relaxed. The Doctor was getting bored. Unfortunately the TARDIS had decided to break down in the middle of no where. And no where in space is pretty remote. The Doctor was now trying his hardest to fix the TARDIS. At this exact moment in time (and space) we find the Doctor tinkering with the control panel. Rose was resting against the railings when a thought crossed her mind.
"So you like Disney?" The question sprung from her lips. A smile now crossed those very same lips.
The Doctor rouse his head up to look at Rose. His expression was one of confusion. Where this question had come from, only the king of the Slitheen's from Raxacoricofallapatorian would know.
"Where did that come from?" The Doctor asked inquisitively.
"I don't know, it's just be playing on my mind for days. You know, you started quoting the lion king in the Sycorax ship."
The Doctor stopped to think. He remembered, tea, blood, A-, ugly aliens, lots of them.
"Ah yes, i was still sick, probably had a fever and all, probably that tea too. Tasted a bit weird. You really need to teach your mum how to make a nice cuppa."
He lead back on his back and began to work on the TARDIS again. The sound of his sonic screw driver humming. Of course Rose wasn't going to let the matter drop that easily. She isn't that kind of person. She's going to delve deep until she gets a full answer.
"Come on you must have watched it if you can quote it," Rose said.
"I know everything Rose," The Doctor replied.
"Mr Modest."
"Do too, I'm sorry if you don't like it, but that's fact."
"Still, you must have watched it." Rose's voice was stubborn, she wasn't going to let it down. The Doctor sighed stood up and walked over. He placed his hands on her shoulders.
"I admit to watching it …once or twice, but that's it." He removed his hands and headed for his jacket. It was hanging over the rails of the TARDIS. He removed something that looked a bit like a tiny donut and took it over to the consol. Rose folded her arms. She hated to be beaten by a smart talking Doctor. There was more to this then the Doctor was willing to tell. Then something made her ears prick up and a large smile to spread across her lips.
"Tale as old as time," the Doctor began to sing.
"True as it can be," he carried on.
"Barely even friends
Then someone bends
Unexpectedly
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast."
"I hope I'm the Beauty," Rose smiled.
"Of course," he said with a wink of his deep, dark, brown eyes..
He carried on humming the tune as he stood up. He wiggled his index finger for Rose to follow. They went down the corridor to a small room.
"Now you promise not to laugh," The Doctor said. His hand was holding the door handle waiting until she promised.
"At what?" She asked. She was confused by the whole situation.
"Just promise, swear on the lives of all you stupid ape relatives."
"Hey!"
"Just promise."
"Ok, ok, I swear on my stupid ape like relatives."
The Doctor smiled and slowly opened the door.
They walked inside and Rose began to laugh.
"You promised not to laugh."
"Yeah but this is to much. How am I suppose not to laugh at an adult man with a room full of…"
"We'll when you live for 900 years you have to have some hobbies."
"Yeah, but the whole Disney collection on DVD."
