Soz about the wait! Let's Kill Hitler was amazing… I am so glad that River and the Doctor kissed twice, even if once it was just to murder him! :P
Heres a short chapter to bridge the break between the actual action...
The Doctor's head popped back round the door a few minutes later, a worried expression on his face.
"River…" he started, his face looking ashamed. He pointed to his bow tie, which had somehow (River didn't want to ask) been burnt away in the middle. River rolled her eyes. You couldn't trust any Doctor to make tea properly.
"River… I know how you feel about bow ties, but…" the Doctor shifted his feet nervously. "I mean, you stole one of them yesterday, and… Do you still have it? Because I need one."
River sighed and reached inside her tracksuit pocket and pulled out a TARDIS blue bow tie, handing it to him.
The Doctor leaned towards her for a moment, and whispered, "Thank you," he pressed a quick kiss to her lips, his hands winding in her hair for a moment, completely oblivious of Rose who was watching with a wistful expression. Then he disappeared out of the door.
When the Doctors finally came back with the tea, River nearly laughed. They (well probably just her Doctor) had decorated the mugs with pictures of fezzes. River took the cup in her hand. It was ice cold.
"Ice tea!" the Doctor said proudly, and Pretty Boy nodded. River knew this was most probably just because they hadn't got the kettle working.
Everyone sat down, and as Rose and River began to take the first sips of their "ice tea", both Doctors froze. Her Doctor dropped his cup, spilling it all over River. She glared at him.
"Sweetie… You are so going to regret this," But before River could shoot his bow tie, they heard screams coming from outside.
"That's my call," the Doctor said, jumping up at the same time as Pretty Boy, while both tried to get out of the door at the same time, resulting in them getting stuck, which looked so comical that River almost would have laughed.
They ran to the door, closely followed by River and Rose. The Doctor fumbled with the door handle, somehow trying to the turn it sideways, before cursing and flipping out his sonic. He flung open the house door and they were all confronted with plastic people running around, their hands flapping open to reveal guns.
"Autons," Rose whispered. She had obviously encountered them before. River automatically took out her Alpha Blaster and aimed it, taking down at least ten of them before it ran out of power. She shook it uselessly.
"Hello, you plasticky plastic people," the Doctor said grandly, but they didn't pay any attention. People were running away, screaming, and as far as River could tell nobody was hurt yet. But then one of the Autons began walking towards them in that slow, stumbling way, its hand flipping open.
"Oops," Pretty Boy said, and slammed the door shut just as the first shot hit. The Doctor, meanwhile was looking at the readings on his sonic screwdriver.
"Basic plastic life form, animated by a larger consciousness…" the Doctor read out, and Pretty Boy grimaced, and then remembered something which made his mouth curve in an adorable lopsided grin.
"The last time we had these, Mickey got plastified!"Pretty Boy laughed, and so did Rose and the Doctor. River couldn't help feeling a little left out.
"His hand turned into a cheese spatula!" Rose burst out between giggles. River always forgot that the Doctor knew so many people, because there hadn't been many guests at their wedding. The Doctor didn't like looking back, since there was so much sadness in his life. River was glad she was there to help share the burden. One day, she thought, everybody will know what an amzing man he is.
The Doctor smiled fondly. "Mickey went and married Martha now. Two Smiths, hunting down aliens…"
"Mickey and Martha? That's brilliant!" Pretty Boy exclaimed, but another shot rang through the door he was stemming himself against and he whacked his head against the door annoyedly. "Think, brain, think! If we could get a reading on them-"
"We could trace the signal back to the main controller!" the Doctor finished gleefully. "I'm fantastic!"
"Yep, I am," Pretty Boy answered, hugging Rose.
"Don't get such a big head, Sweetie, it might explode," River teased. But the Doctor didn't reply, he was too busy waving his sonic screwdriver in the air.
"This way," the Doctor concluded, pointing at the back door. "The sonic will have a higher frequency when we're facing in the right direction." Nobody had moved, staring sceptically at the hailstorm of bullets and mad rush of people crowding around. "Come on, what are you waiting for?"
The Doctor grabbed River's hand and smiled at her affectionately. "You watch us run," he said, quoting her.
"Anything for you, honey," River replied simply and they ran out of the door, dodging bullets as they were closely followed by Pretty Boy and Rose. River couldn't help feeling a little smug that the Doctor was holding her hand and had kissed her in front of Rose. She didn't feel jealous anymore, though. She knew the Doctor would always love her the most. After all, he had forgiven her for killing him twice. She turned her mind away from the sad thoughts and grinned. It was just like always. Running with the Doctor.
