A/N : Thanks for reviewing, sorry if theres any mistakes or anything in this chapter that I've missed out.
The pair pulled apart after what felt like an eternity and stood there smiling at each other for a long time. Donna just watched them feeling very pleased with herself. Donna Noble, Matchmaker. Hmm, it had a kind of ring to it, Donna thought happily. But everybody's joy was short lived from a noise coming from the flat. "Oi what the hell are you doing back here?". Jackie stormed past Rose and glared stonily at the Doctor waiting for an explaination.
"Don't hit me please! I only came by to tell Rose I loved her" he said stepping away from the furious mother. Jackie softened slightly after he'd said that but was still angry with him.
"If you even think about leaving my daugher again, I'll hunt you down and give you a slap so hard, you'll never be able to smile ever again" she warned and the Doctor stepped behind Rose for protection."So, do you fancy a cuppa?" Jackie asked politely, as if nothing had happened between them. The Doctor gulped then nodded. Rose grinned at the Doctor's fear and Donna coughed to let her presence be known. Rose turned and looked at her.
"Oh hi Donna, I'm sorry I didn't notice you there, come in" she smiled warmly and Donna could see why the Doctor loved her so much. She was beautiful and seemed capable of looking after herself without a probelm. Judging from the Doctor's lifestyle, that was the kind of woman he needed. Donna followed Jackie, Rose and the Doctor into the living room and took a seat in an armchair next to the sofa which Rose and the Doctor were now sat on. Jackie went into the kitchen to make everyone a brew."So Donna how long have you known the Doctor?" Rose asked her and Donna smiled.
"We only met yesterday when I ended up on his ship. I was suppose to be getting married but it turned out that my fiance was an evil bastard and was poisioning me with huton particles which was how I got on space boys ship. In the end everything turned out alright, for me anyway, not so much for my fiance and when the Doctor asked me to come with him I couldn't say no. How could you go back to normal life after things like that? besides my mother would have just gone off on one as soon as I'd walked back into the house. Then his ship, did you know his ship talks ?" Rose nodded and continued to listen intently as Donna went on."Anyway it told me everything and I convinced him to see you. His pride got in the way of things, he wanted to really though, didn't you Doctor?".
"Yes" he admitted as Jackie walked back into the room, placing a tray with four cups of coffee on to the coffee table before sitting on the other armchair that was opposite Donna's.
"So what are you two going to do now with everything? I am not letting Rose go out and risk her life in the state that she's in" Jackie said pointing at Rose's swolllen stomach. Rose rolled her eyes.
"Do you reallly think I'm going to be stupid enough to let some red eyed, green, blobby alien eat me?".
"Yes I do and that's why I think you should stay here for now" Jackie said and the Doctor shot her an annoyed look.
"As long as Rose is with me I'm not going to let her or my child get hurt okay Jackie? she's going to be staying in the tardis from now on" he said firmly and both Rose and Jackie looked at him but for different reasons.
"How long will she be with you Doctor before you decide you don't want them anymore?".
"Mum!" Rose yelled at her mother who was glaring at him. The Doctor was glaring at her right back.
"That's not going to happen, Jackie, ever. It only happened this once, believe me this will be the last time, because I freaked out okay? I love Rose and I'm not leaving her again" Rose was starting to cry.
"Hormones bless her" Donna smiled.
"You better take care of her" Jackie said ignoring Donna's comment.
"He will mum" Rose said quietly.
"Do you promise to visit once the baby's born?"
"Of course" Rose smiled and walked over to her mother's armchair, knelt down beside her and took her hand."I love you mum so much". Jackie was crying now.
"My little girl isn't so little anymore" she sobbed and soon both of them were crying. The Doctor rolled his eyes and Donna glared at him. He could be so insensitive at times.
"Talk about domestic" he muttered.
"Oi, your girlfriends pregnant, you better get used to domestic" Donna pointed out.
"Well I love Rose as you can see and when it's my child, it's fine, it's brilliant. When it's Jackie Tyler, however, that's a different case entirely" he replied. Jackie let go off Rose and shot him a such an evil glare that if looks could kill, he'd have used up all of his remaining regenerations.
"I'll go pack my stuff and get dressed" Rose grinned before running off to her bedroom leaving Donna, Jackie and him alone.
"Please promise me you'll take her and the baby to visit me when it's born" Jackie pleaded.
"Of course I will. Your it's only grandparent" he smiled at Jackie for the first time in months.
"Oh god" her eyes widened."I'll be a grandmother! I'll be old " she gasped."I'm gonna kill you" she said but only half serious. Rose was happy, that's all that mattered to her now.
"Ready?" Rose said emerging from her bedroom. She had her blonde hair tied into plaits and wore a blue tracksuit, the only one that still fitted her. The Doctor, Donna and Jackie were all alarmed to see her carrying a very big duffel back. The Doctor and Jackie both leapt up and pratically raced each other to Roses side. Jackie pushed the Doctor into the doorway before grabbing the bag off Rose.
"No don't you be carrying that. I'll carry to the tardis for you" Jackie ignored Rose's protests and tossed it over her shoulder.
"Hey I could of done it!" the Doctor yelled, rubbing his arm.
"Let's just go" Rose said and the four of them walked back to the spaceship which was parked outside. Rose pratically ran to it, ignoring everybody's protests that she shouldn't be running in her condition. She wasn't a flippin invalid!. She stroked the outside of the tardis and grinned, "Did you miss me? I missed you but I'm back now for good". Everyone caught up with her and the Doctor took the duffel bag off Jackie before he and Donna walked into the ship, leaving mother and daughter alone to talk.
"Will you come home sooner rather than later?" Rose nodded.
"Of course I will. As soon it's born, you'll be the first one to know."
"If that man doesn't take good care of you I'll kill him " Jackie said glaring at the tardis, Rose smiled and hugged her.
"Love you mum, see you soon okay?"
"Bye sweetheart" the pair let go before Rose ran into the tardis. Jackie watched as the tardis faded away and thought how good it had been to have her little girl back for a while.
