"Jenny!" Rose yelled the next morning as she got the twins ready for school, "We're going to be late...again." She murmured, it was like this every morning, last minute and rushed. She sighed as The Doctor finally approached down the stairs, Jenny in tow.

"We're ready!" The Doctor rushed as he rushed to his shoes and grabbed Jenny's, "Well, almost ready."

Rose smiled as she watched The Doctor and Jenny together, they were so much alike, especially the way they behaved and appearances, Jenny had the same messy brown hair as The Doctor, no matter how many times Rose plaited Jenny's hair in to a neat plait, it seemed moments later it'd be half out. They always seemed so in sync with one another, like they were connected, Rose had always wondered, with The Doctor still being part Time-Lord; he could still be linked to his family, maybe even without realising. Connection or not, it always gave Rose a reason to smile watching them together. Finally everyone seemed to ready to go to school and work.

"Right, come on!" Rose yelled, grabbing some toast and quickly giving it to the kids. "Eat up." She smiled and couldn't help but giggle, she always saw rushed families on TV shows, she never thought it was actually like that.

"Right! Jenny is at her friend Lucy's house and the twins are happily playing," Rose sighed happily as she lay next to The Doctor on the sofa, taking a five minute breather from the kids and chaos.

"Good," The Doctor smiled as Rose leant against him, the radio was playing in the background, despite none of them ever sat down and listened to it, Rose had to admit, whenever she was alone she'd turn it up to full volume and have a little dance to herself, though once The Doctor walked in and joined her.

"I could just sit here all night," She smiled to herself and relaxed.

"Me too," The Doctor whispered in to her hair and planted a kiss on her, smiling, "But we've got to go to your Mother's tonight." He reminded her, hearing her mumbled groan next to him, "Babysitters coming at eight."

"Do we have to go?" Rose whined, sitting up and staring at him, her pleading to him, "We can say I'm sick, I mean I am feeling pretty sick as it happens."

"Oh really?" The Doctor raised his eyebrows at her, smirking, "Good job you've got a Doctor then isn't it?"

"That's a nickname; it isn't your real name."

"That's because I prefer my nickname, besides it sounds weird you calling me 'John Smith'."

"I know, now...I'm feeling really ill," Rose emphasised, she knew The Doctor wouldn't buy it for one second, she could see it in his eyes, she still thought it was worth a shot, "We should just call tonight off, we can always go another time? Like next week? Or maybe next month...or next year?"

"Rose," The Doctor looked down at her gently, he could see she didn't want to accept the fact her Mother had tried to move on from Pete and found a new man, he could tell it hurt her, and he could understand, but he knew one day she would have to face it, "I know you don't want to meet this bloke of your Mum's," He whispered, "But you've got to, you know you do, but I'll be there, I'll crack some of my hilarious jokes if things get weird, and creep him out with all my excellent knowledge."

Rose giggled slightly. "Was that a smile?" The Doctor grinned down at he and she decided to go along with it for once and nodded.

"Yes it was, and I know you're right," Rose sighed, "As much as it pains me to say, I don't want your ego getting any bigger, but you are right, I guess I'd just rather face it later rather than sooner."

"I know," The Doctor, "But it does get us out of the house for the night? Away from the kids?"

"Yeah only to go and listen to my Mother natter on for three hours about things that no-one in the real world even cares about but for some unknown reason she finds very important for everyone to know about."

"Ok, it's not the ideal night out," The Doctor agreed, "But next week we'll have a date night? A full night away from the kids, and just use all alone. I'll take you to a romantic meal, then we can go see a show? Or just take a walk down the river and talk?" He smiled.

"Then we can come back home and go to bed?"Rose raised her eyebrows and bit her lip at him and he nodded.

"Yes, then bed, love that part," He grinned like a child and paused for a moment, "Rose?" He whispered, his voice gentle, yet sounding more serious.

"Yeah?"

"I was wondering...we've always wanted more kids, and a large family, do you think we could maybe...try for another one?"He asked gently, and felt Rose tense slightly as she paused. He knew it was difficult for her, they had always wanted a larger family, but after losing the baby, it had knocked Rose back, she'd been scared of getting pregnant again in case anything happened, she couldn't face the pain of having to lose another baby. Finally Rose spoke up and said something.

"Maybe," She whispered and gave The Doctor a gentle smile and nodded, "Maybe."
