Prompt request: The life of the Metacrisis Doctor and Rose Tyler in Pete's World after "Journey's End"
Worthwhile
The Doctor woke suddenly…and wondered why…until the uncomfortable pressure on his bladder provided the answer. He sighed at the still-unaccustomed feeling…and at the increasingly obvious need to remove himself from the warmth and comfort that surrounded him. Grudgingly, he gently disentangled his limbs from those of the woman who slept soundly beside him and climbed carefully out of bed in order not to disturb her.
Despite his irritation at the quirks of his new fragile human body, though, he couldn't help but to smile as he gazed down at Rose and remembered that she had always enjoyed sleeping in…and how much his previous incarnations used to tease her back in the TARDIS for spending a third of every day in hibernation when there were so many more interesting things that she could be doing…with him!
Now look at me, though. His pleasant thoughts turned a bit morose as he headed into the ensuite to take care of some of the more inconvenient business that went along with being human. After all, there was no doubt that his old Time Lord physiology had been far easier to regulate.
Nevertheless, as he returned to the bed that he now shared with the woman he had loved ever since he sported large ears and wore leather, he had to admit that not every human biological experience was unsatisfactory. In fact, when the pair of slim arms reached up to pull him down and the long lean runner's legs wrapped around him while the soft plump lips found his own, his new extra sensitive anatomy reacted instantly.
During the pleasurable interlude that followed, the Doctor concluded...yet again...that even though being a human wasn't always easy, finally being able to be with his Rose made it all worthwhile!
