Chapter 2

"It's only for the weekend, Doctor." Amy said reassuringly as she headed out the door. "Fighting giant squids does become tiring." Rory added.

And that was it. The Doctor was alone. Again. He exahaled slowly and began to make his way around the Tardis console pulling leavers and pushing buttons. "Where shall we go, Sexy? Should we pop in on River?" The ship hummed in agreement.

As the Tardis began to screech at its arrival, The Doctor could hear faint alarms sounding. He smiled and slightly shook his head. "Always up to trouble."

"Hello Sweetie." The woman said. She was illuminated by glowing light, those trademark luscious curls shaping her flushed cheeks, chest moving faster than usual and parting the gray shirt revealing a tad too much cleavage. All the man could do was stare.

"Back so soon?" The doors shut and The Doctor snapped out of his trance.

"How long has it been, River?"

"Well, for me it's only been a little more than ten minutes." She chuckled. He was usually months late. "Did you get the time wrong again, dear?"

"Your mother wanted to see you, and we all know never defy the wishes of mum." The timelord teased, patting the console.

"Oh, so only Sexy wanted to see me?" River smirked with a raised brow.

"No, no, no, it's not like that. At all!" He quickly corrected. "I- I wanted to see you as well but, um The Tardis, she wanted to see you more so- No! She didn't want to see you more, I did. Yes, I wanted to see, be with you very much." His gaze now glancing at her chest. When he looked up her grin was even larger. "Oh, you were just-"

"Just messing with you, sweetie." Oh, she drove him crazy, and River knew it.

"So," the tall figure questioned.

"Say no more, I've got the perfect adventure planned." Melody made her way around the console pulling leavers and pushing buttons just as The Doctor did, only with fewer mistakes.

"An adventure? "

"Well, if you'd prefer 'date' I wouldn't mind." She pauses to peer at his expression.

"Date it is. Lead the way, Professor Song!" The Doctor was happy for some change.

"Your letting me make a decision?"

"Oh, shut up."

She stepped towards him. "Make me."

"I just love the way you say that." He took one lanky step towards River.

"And I love-"

The Tardis shook violently throwing the two travelers on the ground.

The moment their eyes crossed the couple burst into laughter.

"Is that what normally happens when the brakes are left on?" River giggled.

"That is what happens when she's properly flown." The Doctor stood, River shortly joining him.

"Oh, please," she sighed straightening his bow tie. "Like you know how to pilot a spaceship." She sauntered away leaving the lesser man chasing after her.

"I'll have you know that I learned from the best."

"Yes, dear, so did I. But I actually listened."

The Doctor awoke, head hanging with a blurry mind. 'Where am I?' He thought. The brilliant man tried to recall all that happened that day. 'Right. First I dropped off the Ponds. Then, I talked to sexy and had a cup of earl grey tea. No, it was peppermint. No, no, I had peppermint yesterday. It was definitely chamomile tea. Yes, I had a cup of chamomile tea. And then River had boarded the Tardis. Oh, River. She looked absolutely gorgeous in that top and- River! Where is River?' The worried man desperately searched the large room with his eyes. Nowhere. He raised up only to be pulled back down again by the wrists. Looking downwards, he exclaimed. "SHACKLES?" Now, how had this happened? 'Ah, the Amazonian women.' The Doctor recalled.

"Hello sweetie!"

"River..." He growled. She was flanked by large, scarcly clothed women on either side.

"Not to worry, dear. You were becoming rather bothersome after the ladies here tried to take your bowtie," His eyes suddenly shot wide open as he checked, thankfully it was still there. "So I had then tuck you away safely while we had a nice chat and enjoyed some chamomile tea." She held up her cup as if for proof.

"I had some chamomile today, as well." He smirked.

"Did you really?" River's brow quirked slightly. "Well, you know what they say, great minds think a like."
