Well, jeez,reviews make me want to write chapters, and you certainly delivered! Alright so here we go! Chapter 5 of this emotional train of FEELS. It should be noted I do NOT under any circumstances ship doctor/rose however there is mentions of her in this chapter but only to make certain readers understand just how much the doctor cares about all his companions especially Rory.
Rory blinked and bit his lip, best to lie in this situation. "Sure am, looks like I was right about Amy being so satisfying." Lie Lie Lie, I am far from satisfied, I want to get under those clothe Doctor.
"Good to hear; now maybe things can get back to normal."
With you nothing is ever normal. Rory complained within his head.
It felt like months had gone by in the TARDIS, when in reality it had only been a few days. Though after an accident on a interspecies planet Amy had decided to take a leave of absence on the big blue box for just a few days and had told Rory to stay on, considering that the Doctor needed his companions to keep him out of trouble. Though, to be more accurate, she probably just wanted to keep them both out of trouble. Amelia Pond just didn't know they were more trouble together then apart.
William's was half asleep on the couch in the control room when the Doctor strolled in from one of the many areas on the bigger on the inside ship and peered at the sleeping roman for a few seconds putting his hands on his suspender straps an d sighing quietly. This, was not the situation he wanted to be in right now, it felt, it felt like he was repeating Rose all over again. They both even had R names. He gritted his teeth and shifted moving to mess with the controls. This is ridiculous. I can't possibly be having feelings for another human like this AGAIN. His eyes shifted gradually back over to the two thousand yea old male as he seemed to mumble in his sleep.
What had he just said? The Doctor's curious nature was overriding his intelligence and he wobbled a little closer making his way around the control panel like a penguin. He leaned a bit closer flicking dials as if he wasn't paying all his attention to the sleeping male.
"Doctor.." The nurse mumbled again and Eleven face ignited blushing furiously. This happened a few more times, every time the nurse said his name it seemed to get more vivid. After a moment eleven couldn't stand it any longer and shifted tossing a bobble at Rory's head waking him with a start."Ah! Whoa! What?' He nearly flopped off the couch and Eleven simply returned to his work. Williams however was slightly dazed and his eyes fell on the man's back his face flushing a little as the images he'd been picturing before came swirling into his head and he scrambled up."Ah.." He was about to say something but instead awkwardly hobbled for the steps clearly not in the right frame of mind to say anything to the time lord.
This back and forth awkwardness went on for two days before Rory found himself avoiding them man in the ship, when they went out to look at mostly calm planets he'd comment on a few things but overall he'd stay away from him, worried if he got to close he'd smash him into the control console and have him there. Or some absurd thought like that.
Finally, not having anyone to talk to the Doctor got extremely frustrated and slammed his hands on the control consle."Roman!" He snapped and Rory dropped the bobble he'd been playing with making a small yelp noise as it rolled across the floor to the time lord's feet. Eleven shifted down to pick it up and sat it on the console."Rory...how long is this going to keep up?"
"How long is what going to keep up?" Rory asked his fingers twitching, the man was looking at him seriously, and not something he did much of, meant he meant business. Though Rory couldn't help but think he looked so much sexier like ,stop it Williams, Amy,think,Amy, wonderful ginger headed Amy.
"Rory..do I smell or something? Why aren't you talking to me now? Or at least arguing with me about a theory?" he can't be serious, just a few days ago we were snogging under the engine, what AM I suppose to say to him?
"N-no..I..um." He scratched the back of his head feeling awkward again. I doubt myself again. I love Amy, I love him, I just, want to travel the stars for the rest of my life. She wants to be a model and live at home for a few months at a time. I can't tell him that though, he loves her to death. I am just extra baggage. "So where we headed to next?" He changed the subject coming to the control panel and leaning on it his hand falling on the Doctor's by accident.
Eleven glanced down at the hand on top of his and looked off then at the screen. "I was thinking of taking you to see the outer planets, there's one that has flowers more beautiful than any flower anywhere else." He's taking me to a planet of flowers? Oh Lord.
Rory finally noticed his hand was on the others and removed it sheepishly sticking it in his pocket instead. Instantly the Doctor found himself missing the human touch, at least with most of his companions they were always hanging on him, but with these two, it was so strange how it worked. "How do you know it's the planet with the most beautiful? What if, it could only be the second?' Rory commented trying to egg on some conversation so they didn't fall into the awkward hole again.
"I've been to a lot of planets Rory, trust me, this planet..is beautiful." The Doctor explained looking at him. Rory glanced at the man.
"And…why are you taking me? Not Amy…?" He questioned lightly, flowers, flowers seemed like an Amy excuse. There was dead silence now, even the TARDIS seemed unusually .Complete Silence." Doctor there something you're not telling me?"
Eleven shifted seeming to ignore the question.
"Doctor?"
Silence.
"Doctor…wha-
"I am running…."
"From…what?"
The Doctor shifted moving for the door and opened it absently and Rory followed wanting an answer when he was grabbed and shoved out and he stumbled realizing he was on his apartment street corner. Williams whipped around as the Doctor started closing the door.
"You." The Doctor finally said as the door closed completely and he locked it. He heard a bang as Rory started jiggling at it.
"Doctor! Don't be ridiculous! Let me in! Amy said I am, supposed to keep you out of trouble!"
"You are trouble Rory! A billboard of dangerous, gorgeous, trouble!" did he just say I am gorgeous?
"Doctor…let me in." Rory didn't hear an answer and continued to struggle with the door only to begin to hear the sound of the TARDIS engine. Amy must have heard it too because she came scrambling out of the apartment to stand with Rory.
"I thought you were supposed to keep an eye on him?" She asked not understanding what had just transpired as the blue box disappeared.
"..I..did too."
