As the months until Rose's due date slowly passed, the Doctor became closer to Rose and their unborn baby. At every chance, he would be talking to Rose's belly or feeling it, just waiting for little John to kick. And every time he did, the Doctor would laugh gleefully and hug Rose tight. He was so happy, that Rose couldn't help but be happy as well. And she loved him for making her happy. She couldn't wait to be able to bring their son into the world.
One day, some time during her seventh month, the Doctor came up and sat beside her on the seat by the Tardi console, placing a hand on her large pregnant belly like he normally did.
"So, have you told Jackie yet?" The Doctor asked with a big smile on his face as Rose turned to look at him.
"Not yet." She answered. She felt ashamed that she hadn't told Jackie, but she was afraid. Afraid of the way she would react when she told her who the baby's father was. the Doctor smiled as he waved her phone in the air.
"You kow she's just dying to know." He said, the smile getting bigger. He laughed as Rose finally took the phone.
"Just wait until i tell her who the father is."
The Doctor's face automatically fell as he tried to grab the phone back off of Rose, but she jumped out of his reach and pressed the speed dial button. The Doctor quickly hid his face in his hands as Jackie picked up.
"Rose?" Jackie's voice called out from the phone, and the Doctor closed his eyes as tight as they would allow him. Jackie would eat him alive once she found out that he had gotten her daughter pregnant, honestly that woman had a vandetta against him.
"Yeah, its me mum." Rose said as she lounged against Tardis console, her hand resting against her pregnant belly. She gasped as she felt something and the Doctor looked up at her.
"He's kicking." Rose said out loud as the Doctor jumped to his feet.
"Who's kicking?" Jackie asked and both of them forgot that she was on loudspeaker.
"Really?" The Doctor asked as he ran over to her. "Let me feel."
"Feel what?" Jackie called again, but they ignored her as the Doctor reached down to feel her stomach, making Rose smile happily.
"Rose what is going on?" Jackie Tyler yelled at them.
"Shit. Sorry, Mum. Well, i have some great news. You're going to be a grandmother." Rose said excitedly as she smiled at the Doctor.
"Not me, I'm too young." Jackie cried, before she actually figured out what Rose had actually meant. "What?"
"Mum, I'm pregnant."
"How. How far along are you?" Jackie asked, still shocked.
"It just kind of happened. And i am about seven and a half months."
"But who is the father. It can't be Mickey."
Rose sighed as she tried to figure out a way to tell her mother that the Doctor was the father of her baby.
"No, mum, Mickey isn't the father. But you really aren't going to like who the father is." Rose said as she looked up at the Doctor, who had a look of fear on his face.
"Why won't i like it?" Jackie asked, clearly curious as to who the father of her grandchild was.
"Because, it's the Doctor." Rose said slowly.
"WHAT?" Jackie yelled as Rose held the phone away from her ear and the Doctor took several steps away. "You slept with him?"
"Mum, like i said, it just kind of happened. And i love him. And loves me and our baby boy." Rose tried to persuade her mother. The Doctor nodded slightly to no-one in perticular. Rose laughed quietly at him.
"Well, i know you love him. And so does Mickey." Now it was Rose's time to go into shock. She hadn't expected that, she didn't want to hurt Mickey but it had been a long time since she had actually loved Mickey. She kind of lost interest in him after she met the Doctor. And now she was with the Doctor, having his baby and Mickey had known that she loved the Doctor all this time? Rose sighed as she shook her head at the Doctor, who had given her a funny look.
"Mum, you can't choose the people i love. And if you want to act this way about the Doctor and our baby, then don't bother having anything else to do with us." Rose said as she closed her phone, hanging up on her mother, and dropped it on the console. A single tear fell down Rose's cheek, which the Doctor wiped away.
"Rose, you didn't have to do that." The Doctor said as he took her hand in his, the other gently stroking her stomach. Rose smiled as another tear slipped down her cheek.
"Yes, i did. If she can't accept you and our baby, then i can't have anything else to do with her. Because i love you both with all my heart." Rose whispered as she leant against the Doctor. The word heart hurt the Doctor more then he expected it to, proving to him that she was still human. But maybe, that would all change with their baby's birth. The Doctor hoped so, because a human woman had never carried a Time Lord's child. So he hoped that matters would change for the better, and that the Doctor could conitinue his life with Rose and their baby.
"I love you, Rose." The Doctor whispered to her, but when he got no answer, he looked down to see that she had fallen asleep. The Doctor smiled as he settled back to waitout her nap.
An hour later, Rose woke and looked around. The baby was kicking like a mad thing and she realised that she had fallen asleep on the Doctor's shoulder. Rose turned slightly and smiled up at the Doctor, before she realised that he too had fallen asleep. She shook him gently as she took his hand and placed on her stomach, right over the place where John was still kicking. The Doctor smiled as he stirred, his eyes opening slowly as Rose rested back against the seat cushion. His hand added a slight amount of pressure as he turned to look at her properly. The Doctor smiled gently at Rose, his eyes still hooded as he remained half asleep, but he continued to wake even more as he felt his son kick his hand. Rose placed her hand over the Doctors as she smiled back at him.
"Tired were you?" She whispered as he rubbed her stomach gently. The Doctor smiled slightly.
"I can say the same thing about you." The Doctor said, as his smile widened as he took her hand and jumped to his feet, pulling her to hers at the same time.
"So miss Rose Tyler, where should we go today?" The Doctor asked, as he walked over to the Tardis console.
"Well, seen as i am seven months pregnant with your child, how about staying in bed all day. Watching movies and eating chocolate?" Rose said as she pressed up close to the Doctor. The Doctor's face fell slightly, he always loved exploring with Rose, but staying in bed with her all day would suffice.
"Sound's like a good idea." The Doctor said as he smiled brightly down at her, took her hand in his and drew her towards his bedroom. Rose had only ever been in the Doctor's room once, when they had slept together, and she planned on being there more often. It made her feel happy and safe, just like when she was in the Doctor's arms. She loved the fact that it was soo brown. The walls were a dark timber and there was thick brown carpet covering the Tardis floor. Rose especially liked the dark brown, king sized bed covered in a Tardis blue doona. It reminded her on him, and as Rose breathed in, it also smelled like him. The Doctor pulled her to the bed, but Rose turned them around, so that he had his back to the bed. She smiled happily at the Doctor and pushed him onto the bed, falling ontop of him. Rose giggled as the Doctor looked up at her with hooded eyes, and she leaned down and kissed his on the lips. The Doctor opened his mouth in momentary shock and Rose took her chance to slip her tongue past his lips. The Doctor smiled against her lips as he started to kiss her back, passionately. The Doctor pushed himself up close to her as Rose gripped his shoulders and continued to kiss him. Just as the Doctor started to roll so that he was hovering over her, John kicked Rose right in the blatter. Rose bucked against the Doctor, in a place she really wished she hadn't. The Doctor lost almost all control as he pulled her to him and kissed her with all his might. Rose's hormones were raging, and she wanted to continue, but right now she really needed to pee.
"Doctor-" Rose tried to say, but the Doctor captured her lips again. Rose squirmed and wriggled, but again in the wrong spot, as her blatter threathened to burst.
"Doctor! If you don't get off of me, i am going to pee all over you." Rose yelled as the Doctor released her lips to breath, but he ended up on the bed beside her when he jumped in fright. Rose smiled as she jumped from the bed and ran from the room. The Doctor watched after her in shock, and pulled his tie from his kneck, as it seemed to have come loose while they had been having fun. The Doctor smiled as he climbed down from the bed and put Rose's favourite movie into the DVD player, which seemed to be a new one each week. The Doctor smiled to himself, she really was unpredictable.
Rose was washing her hands when the pain started. Rose yelled out in pain, as she pulled in on the pain. It was coming from the place where she least wanted, from her womb. She knew what they were when the pain started to fade. Rose straightened up as the Doctor burst through the door.
"Rose, what's the matter?" The Doctor all but yelled as he took her arm in his hand.
"Labour, the baby is coming." Rose said through another bout of pain. The Doctor watched her in shock before Rose grabbed him by the front of his jacket and shook him.
"Doctor, get me back to Earth." Rose yelled through gritted teeth. The Doctor nodded quickly. "But if you tell her, i will kill you."
The Doctor continued to nod as he ran from the bathroom, running from different corridors before he shook his head violently and raced in the right direction, towards the console room. The Doctor tried to think of a different to land, other then the usual. But no other place came to mind, so he locked the place and time in and flicked the lever and the Tardis started to materalize. He raced back to Rose, who was still in the bathroom on the floor. She seemed to be in pain again, so the Doctor dropped to his knees in front of her.
"Tell me whats happening." The Doctor asked Rose as he gripped her hands in his.
"Con-trac-tions!" Rose said through gritted teeth. "Aaggh!"
The Doctor watched in horror as Rose went through the pain, as he waited for the Tardis to arrive at their destination. The Doctor listened as he waited for it to land, and when it did he took Rose's hand and carefully pulled her to her feet. Together the walked slowly through the Tardis before the reached the Tardis door. Opening the door, the Doctor led Rose from the Tardis into the courtyard where they had landed so many times before.
"Rose!" A voice yelled from across the courtyard and the Rose looked up to see who it was, but seeing that it was Jackie and Mickey, she turned back and scowled at him.
"Why aren't we at the hospitable? Why are we here?" Rose all but yelled at him as she turned and walked slowly back to the Tardis. The Doctor looked back at Jackie and Mickey, shook his head and returned to the Tardis. As he closed the door of the Tardis behind him, he looked to see Rose sitting on Tardis floor.
"Doctor. I think we really need to get to the hospitable." Rose said simply as she looked down at the floor. The Doctor rushed to her and took her hand, not noticing the water in front of Rose.
"Why?" The Doctor asked, clearly confused. Rose looked at him like he was an idiot.
"My water just broke." Rose said as she pointed in front of her. The Doctor looked down at the ground, noticed the water on the ground and jumped to his feet and raced to the Tardis and flicked another switch, and of they went. The Doctor helped Rose to her feet as they landed, and the exited the Tardis into the middle of a busy hospitable.
The Doctor watched in shock as Rose yelled in pain again, and was rushed away by a nurse with a wheelchair after The Doctor had yelled that she was in labour. And for once, the Doctor walked slowly after them. He didn't know what was going to happen, but he hoped it would work out for the best.
