My head banged against something hard as my body was thrown about like a rag doll.
I oppened my eyes and saw the docter sitting up and bouncing about just as i was.
He smiled when he noticed i was awake, "Morning Rose.
I sat up uncomfortably and realised we were on the back of a wooden cart, i spun around to see big brown
horse pulling us along and a not so big boy holding the reigns.
"Meet Taylor" the docter said, sounding as if they had been friends for yonks.
"Hello" said the young boy, turning around and smiling.
Taylor looked about 13, he had light brown hair down to his neck, a dazzling smile and almost fluro green eyes,
his olive skin was quite baby like and he wore a dusty brown cloak with the hood down.
I smiled back at the gorgous boy, "well hello there.
"He happened to catch our little performance back there and thought he should help" the docter explained.
"Wow you must be pretty strong to have lifted us both on to this cart by yourself, then again with your
looks, you probably charmed the laws of physics in to doing it for you" i practically vomited the words out.
I violently blushed not beliving what i just said to this poor boy i didn't even know.
He blushed to and turned back around.
"Thanks, i think your beautiful aswell" he replied with strain in his voice, sounding like he was trying to
controll his words.
"Well that was odd" the docter observed with a hint of humor in his face.
"Were here" Taylor announced, slowing the speed of his horse with a small pull of the reigns.
I had been so busy making a fool of myself i hadn't even noticed how thick the forest was now.
The place was surounded with the colourful tree's, it looked like big sploches of paint on a canvass and
you could just make out the blue sky above.
We came to a big village, almost like a small city but instead of sky scrapers, there were huts and houses that
wound up the side of tall tree's.
"Amazing" i breathed in awe.
We continued to go through the village till we got to a hut with a small stable next to it.
"CHARLOTE" Taylor called as the docter and myself jumped off the back.
He took the horse out of the reigns, put it in the stable and came back just as a women, who looked barely 16,
walked out of the house wearing a brown dress and a dirty white apron.
"Back already Taylor?" she said in a sweet voice.
"Yep, did ya make me lime cake like you promised?" he replied.
She giggled and nodded, then her eyes flicked across to us and she stopped smiling.
"Who are they" she enquired quite rudely.
"I found them unconcious in the forest" said Taylor as if we weren't there.
"Hello, im the docter" he said with a wide grin, taking a step forward to shake Charlotte's hand.
"Hi" she replied still eyeing us off and ignoring the docters out-stretched hand.
"You dont look like your from around here" she continued
"your clothes are... weird, who are you?" she looked at me.
I stepped forward and smiled, "Rose Tyler"
"Your very pretty, Rose" she replied witout smiling back.
"Um.. thankyou, im feeling incredibley uncomfortable.
"Please dont i will feel like a bad host and cant bare to recive that kind of reputation."
We both stared at each other embarrassed by our sudden outburst of conversation.
Taylor took a small step forward and it seemed as though he was going to say something, but then he looked down
and bit his lip till it went white.
"well that was certainly different" said the docter, breaking the silence.
I scowled at him but he didn't notice.
"I wonder, are you folk so honest that it is catching or did someone spike the water around here?" the docter asked.
He frowned and looked directly at Charlotte's face, she looked like her eyes would pop with strain.
"Shut up!" "i dont want to tell you" Charlotte half yelled.
"But you know your going to anyway, dont you". replied the docter calmly.
She looked at him with desperate and overpowered eyes and pushed her lips together tightly.
"I think you have some exlaining to do" the docter commented as though he were talking of the weather.
"We dont need to explain the secret, i think you should leave" said Charlotte .
"NO!" cried Taylor "Charlie, maybe they can help, i really like them.
"He's right" said he docter, "we can help.
She looked nervously at everyone and then gave a small sigh of defeat.
"Ok... come inside and i'll cut the lime cake" said Charlotte turning toward the house and muttering something
under her breath.
I looked at the docter feeling very confused, but my confusion was then replaced with excitment when i recalled
what she had just said.
The docter winked and we followed Charlote toward the house.
What secret had she been talking about?
