The rest of the evening essentially passed without incident. Jane finished her chores quickly so she would be able to guard her room. Luckily, when her brother came home, he headed straight for the laptop to check his Facebook page. Derek didn't really spend much time in the back of the house in the evening, and the same went for her parents. The occasional pop-in to say "Hello," should you be in your room retrieving something or were using the toilet that was back there. That was about it.

Still, when Jane's mum came home, she had to ask why there was a "knock plz" sign on the door, which she had noticed when going back to her room to change out of her work clothes. As she was very good at doing, Jae came up with an elaborate story involving keeping the heater turned up, not wasting energy, and a few other random factors.

Her mother stared at her for a minute, then said, 'O-kaaaaaay, Jane. Whatever,' and walked away.

So the night passed. Jane sat quietly at her desk, doing her chemistry homework and listening to "Ocean Eyes" by Owl City on earphones, so she wouldn't wake up the Doctor with her music. When she thought she heard a noise: a groan, a sharp intake of breath, she yanked the ear pods from her ears, whipping her head around to check on her "patient". But, as before, he slept on.

It was at this point that she stopped and looked at him, leaning on the back of her chair. Again and again she wondered who this Doctor really was, and what was wrong with him. He hadn't moved since she put him there, but he clearly wasn't dead. Yet this was more than just a case of really needing sleep. What she'd seen of his "Symptoms" had been random and mixed, matching nothing in her family's medical dictionary. What she wondered the most was why she was doing this.

Finally she just shook her head. She knew she had been wondering this since the moment she'd first helped him back in the woods on North Road. The wondering was redundant, really, as it wasn't doing anyone any good; in fact, it was actually distracting her from her homework. Turning around, Jane plugged herself back in to her music. She felt safe in her decision to help the Doctor. He didn't give off a bad vibe; in fact, it was the direct opposite.

She again dove into chemistry.

Finally Jane was done with all her homework and ready for bed. Admittedly, it was about 11.1o and everyone else had gone to bed already, but what had to be done had to be done, and now it was. Take that, AP European History!

But even after she was in her jimjams, teeth brushed and makeup washed off, there was still stuff to do. Quietly she snuck through the house to the garage door. Here was where the alarm system controls were housed. Silently she turned them off, allowing her to creep into the garage and retrieve her sleeping bag. After this mission was accomplished and the alarms were re-set, she ventured into the laundry room to steal a spare pillow. The last thing she did was, using the teakettle she'd kept warm on the stove, make a cup of tea in her favourite mug. Jane wasn't a fan of tea herself, but pretty much everyone else she knew always drank tea when they were sick, so she thought the Doctor would like some, too.

Preparations completed, Jane made sure her alarm clock was set. Before finally turning the light out, she stood in front of the bed, looking down at the Doctor. In his sleep he heaved in a deep breath and let it out slowly, stirring her hair just a little bit. She smiled and turned out the light.

Wearily, the girl climbed into her chilly sleeping bag, pushed as far to the other side of the room as she could go. 'Well, it's a bit late for you,' Jane began, 'but sleep good, anyway. See you in the morning.'

Sorry, very quick filler chapter. Just wanted to have something posted cos I haven't in so long. There will be more soon-ish, it just depends on what my schedule does. I've been so busy with drama and homework and falling in love and all that… XD

So, on re-reading, I thought this part was a tad boring. I had things I could have filled the evening-time with, but decided not to because I wanted to get the rest of the story out while it was in my head. But now, should y'all so choose, I can put that on hold, go back, and edit this part to make it longer, with a few mishaps and close encounters. But only if you want, cos otherwise I'm not going to waste my time on it. So please let me know! 8D

I promise it'll pick up soon. Pretty much right after this, actually. Up to now it's really almost all been just setting up for Jane and the Doctor's big adventure! And then I haven't written any more…

But way back at the beginning, when I said that if I had enough readers, I would try and finish this… I think I may have enough. I don't know. We'll see when I get to the end.

As per usual, thanks so much to everyone who reads, and especially everyone who reviews! I love it, love it, love it when you guys do, so thanks! In the meantime, have a good November, y'all. Marty out; PEACE. XD
