A/N Thanks to my beta reader and twin Rhiannon. Very helpful she is.
Waiting for tea and thinking
Rose was laying down on her bed, thinking. She had been doing a lot of that recently, and it was no surprise why. The Doctor had changed. She had gotten so comfortable with the Doctor, and now he went and turned into something different. He had never really explained it until he was regenerating. Supposedly, he was the same but yet different. That made her head hurt. It was funny; she could accept that there were millions of different species of organism across the universe, many of which had mind blowing and incomprehensible powers, and yet she still couldn't get her mind around the fact that a being could radically change and yet be the same.
But what was the same about this Doctor, anyway? Well, he risked his life to save her and the planet from the Sycorax, even when he was still getting over the regeneration and the TARDIS being inside of him. He was just as mouthy as his previous incarnation, as intelligent, as brave, as confident…there seemed to be a lot.
Then, there were some real differences between the two too. This version was way cheekier than the other ever dared to be. He actually liked her mum and Mickey, he wasn't getting his name wrong for a start, and he seemed to have a different sense of humour, maybe more of one. He was also flirty, which she'd never really seen the previous Doctor be, not much anyway. He could give Jack a run for his money now. He also seemed warmer; he hugged and held hands more, which was enjoyable. He seemed pretty hyper too; there was more of an energy about him. He was certainly a fascinating character
His look was totally different. For a start, he had hair! It was fairly long, a lovely brown-y colour, which looked really soft. His eyes were an intense brown, like melted chocolate, to use that cliché. He was slightly shorter, but slimmer that the previous Doctor. His image was a big change too. The brown pinstripe suit, the coat, the fact he used glasses and the beige Converse All Stars. It was very modern yet retro, but still had a timeless feel to it. It really suited him.
She had to admit that she was more attracted to this Doctor on a superficial level. But what about the rest? She had totally fallen in love with the Doctor; she really couldn't imagine life without him. But this change, it had thrown her all into confusion. He still didn't know who he really was, so how was she to know whether he really was the same person, and whether or not she loved him?
She hoped that she could decide soon, so that it wouldn't weigh on her mind like this. She didn't want to become a liability.
She then heard a voice calling down from the hall.
"Tea's ready!" The Doctor yelled. Rose smiled. Maybe it would be sooner than she thought.
