He was in a massive garden. On one side was a big maze made out of large green bushes. Next to it was a flower bed. On the other side was a jungle gym, slides, monkey bars, swings, everything. And next to it was an outdoor swimming pool.
He grinned when he saw the house that went with the garden. It was a mansion, absolutely gigantic. "Fantastic," He cried. He ran round the side of the house (he thought it was better to knock on the front door rather than the back). Strangely, he didn't meet any gardeners on the way. He thought that a garden this big would have to have hundreds of gardeners keeping it lush and green.
He knocked enthusiastically on the front door. A smart butler in a black suit answered the front door.
"Excuse me sir, can I help you?" He asked in a posh English accent.
The Doctor grinned again, "Can you tell me who lives here?"
"I'm sorry sir, but I am not authorised to give you this information."
"Oh," The doctor smile dropped. He looked at the butler pleadingly, "Please! I promise I won't tell anyone!"
"If that's all you came here to say will you please leave." The butler shut the door but the doctor stuck his foot in so it wouldn't close.
"Look," He said, very matter-of-factly, "Is the owner of this house home at the moment. Can I see him or her?"
"I'm sorry the lady of the house is very busy at the moment and my master is out at work. Will you please leave!"
It was obvious that the doctor was trying his patience so he sighed and said, "Fine."
He strode back to the TARDIS, pressed a few buttons, pulled a few levers and…nothing happened. "God! What is so amazing about his place, eh? Why won't you move? There's nothing here to see or do, they won't even let me in!"
Thankfully the familiar noise of the TARDIS moving and the bump of it warming up came. The doctor grinned. He typed something on the main console. "Great, so we'll just float around in space for a few days." He said.
He sat down in the big comfy armchair, put his feet up, and grabbed the nearest magazine, which happened to be one of Rose's girly ones. 'Comso' The title was and on the front it said things like, 'How to win a hot guy over' and 'the top 50 ways to do your hair'. (A/N this is not meant to be offensive to anyone who reads cosmo!) The doctor sighed and threw it into the nearest bin. He thought he'd got rid of everything to do with her. He reached over and picked up another magazine, this one was about machinery. It was more his type of thing.
Suddenly he felt a jolt which he knew must be the TARDIS landing. He out the magazine down and went over to the double doors. He smiled when he opened them. Not because he was happy or that he found something funny, it was just so ironic! They were right in-front of the mansion. The TARDIS really wanted him to be here.
The doctor sighed and patted the doors. "I'll try once more, but this is the last time. If I'm shooed away again, we're leaving!"
He strolled towards the door and rang the doorbell this time. The same butler answered again. "Excuse me sir…" he started but stopped when he saw who it was. "Oh, it's you," he muttered.
"Yep," The doctor grinned.
"What do you want this time?"
"I want to know who lives here."
"I'm not authorised to give you this information, just go!"
"God, sorry," The doctor muttered and turned to go.
"Charles!" A woman's shrill voice rung through the whole house. "Will you please come and help, the toilets not working!"
The doctor paused when he heard this. He turned very slowly and stared at the butler (who he guessed was probably called Charles) who rolled his eyes and called back, "Ma'am that's what you've got plumbers for."
"Yes, ok, sorry Charles. Oh, and also, who's at the door?"
"Jackie," The doctor whispered.
"How do you know her name?" Charles asked.
"Jackie!" He shouted and pushed past Charles. He ran up the stairs and into the room with the door open. And not to his surprise, Jackie was standing in the middle of it.
"Jackie!" He cried again and lifted her into the air and spun her around.
When he had put her down and she had had long enough to work out who he was she gasped. "Oh, doctor," She whispered. He grinned and hugged her again.
"H…h…how?" Jackie managed to get out.
"No idea," The doctor said, still grinning, "There must have still been a hole in the universe or something. The TARDIS managed to bring me here. How long has it been?"
"It's been half a year since the incident on the beach. So that's 1½ years overall. How long has it been for you?"
"Only 1½ days."
"Poor Rose has been in agony ever since!"
"So she still lives with you?"
"Of course, who wouldn't want to live in a house like this?" She smiled.
"And is there anyone else, I mean, is she with someone else?"
"No, you're the only on for her apparently. I told her to move on, that you weren't coming back. Obviously I was wrong."
"Where is she now?"
"At work with her father, she now works at torchwood."
"And Mickey?"
"All these questions! Mickey went to look after his grandmother and live with her."
"Oh," The doctor mocked disappointment.
"I bet inside you're bursting with joy."
"You got me there! So when will she get back?"
"In a few hours."
"Oh, so what shall I do until then?"
"You can help! Come and meet Jack."
"Jack? Captain Jack? I didn't realise he was living with you!"
"He's not quite a captain yet!"
The Doctor followed her into another room and smiled. It was a baby's room with a cot, a changing table and toys all over the floor. Jackie put a finger to her lips and pointed at the crib. The Doctor walked over to it and saw a sleeping baby boy inside. Suddenly his eyes opened and he stared at the Doctor. He opened his mouth in a smile and then scrunched up his eyes and started to scream.
"Oh no," Jackie whispered. She ran over to him and held him in her arms. She cooed and kissed him and he quietened down. She started to hum hush-a-bye-baby. Suddenly the doctor got the overwhelming need to use the loo. He asked Jackie where it was. "It's just down the corridor," she started and then Jack started screaming again.
"I'll find it," He said and started down the corridor. He looked in all the rooms. One was a TV and games room. The other, he guessed, was Pete and Jackie's room. Another was a neat and tidy spare room. He finally got to the toilet but next door to it was a door that had a piece of card with 'Rose' stuck on it.
He rushed into the loo and relieved himself then rushed out again. He stood in front of Rose's room and finally decided to go in. The first thing he thought when he stepped in was that it was very blue and completely different to the one in the TARDIS, she obviously wanted to forget about both him and the TARDIS. However, his thoughts changed when he saw that on one of the walls was painted a big blue TARDIS. On the opposite wall, above her bed was a big collage of pictures of him, the TARDIS, and him and Rose together. They brought tears to his eyes.
"Doctor!" He heard Jackie shout and rushed to Jack's room.
"Yep," He said.
She was standing in the middle of the room, with a sleeping Jack in her arms.
"Sorry, I was just wondering where you'd got to." She paused and then asked, very slowly, "Do you want to hold him?"
"Me? Are you sure?"
"Yeah," She handed Jack to him. He cradled him and smiled at Jack's peaceful face.
"He's beautiful," He muttered, "He looks so much like Rose."
"I know! The resemblance is uncanny!"
The doctor lowered Jack in to the cot and jumped when he heard the door bell ring.
"Who's that?" He asked Jackie.
"I dunno, it's too early to be Pete and Rose, shall we go and she?"
"Sure."
They started to walk down the stairs and Charles opened the front door. "Good evening sir and ma'am. Why are you home so early?"
"We got the afternoon off." The doctor instantly recognised the deep booming voice of Pete Tyler.
Jackie ran down the rest of the stairs and embraced Pete in a large hug.
"Mum!" The doctor felt his hearts beat extra quickly at Rose's voice.
"Rose dear, there's a visitor for you, he's waiting upstairs."
"Oh," Rose said.
The Doctor hid in the bathroom and left the door a bit ajar. Rose slowly walked up the atairs and looked around her. When she walked past the bathroom the doctor quietly opened the door and said, "Rose Tyler, I love you."
A/N Basically I have loads more of this chapter left so I thought I would be to long to do it as one chapter so I'm doing it in 2 parts. The next part will probably be shorter. Hope you like it. Please R&R!
