Allons-y


He didn't touch his lips to hers yet- only looked at her. Her Doctor's face dropped closer to hers. Was this it? Was it finally going to happen?

His mouth lowered slowly. Why wasn't he…?

That's when Rose felt his tongue trace a lazy line over her lips. There were reasons why they had not done this yet, but they all seemed to disappear when he was doing the one thing she never thought he would do. And she was done trying to figure things out at this moment- she was just going to close her eyes and experience.

She'd never had known anyone to take such care with a kiss. Jimmy had been rough and greedy, Mickey sweet, but a bit like a puppy- all slobber. But her Doctor was taking his time and his lips had yet to touch hers. The tip of his tongue outlined and tested the fullness of her mouth, so tenderly, so slowly- it was like he was categorising every line on her lips. It was all sensation, all arousal. She never knew a mouth could feel so much, let alone her own mouth. It was like a thousand lightning bolts striking- and it was all centred on her lips. This was a kiss that was like no other she had ever had, a kiss that was not a kiss and it made her incapable of moving. She could not react at all- just sit there and memorise this moment. It could get no better than this.

That was when his mouth caught her lower lip and bit it gently. Her hands had somehow found the will to lift themselves to his head and her fingers tangled in his hair, pulling him closer- even though the logical part of her said to pull away. He nibbled on her lip before he drew it into his mouth to suck- until everything in her finally caved in.

His hand rubbed a smooth circle on the base of her neck. He still hadn't kissed her. His hand made its way up to her hair, and Rose felt herself moan in surrender, and his lips- her Doctor's lips- finally met hers. How she had waiting this long, she did not know. Time seemed to stop and speed up all at once. His hands were greedy in her hair and hers in his. Mouths opened and tongues met as years of pent up tension and passion came to a head.

He tasted like she had always imagined- of time, tea, bananas, books and a hint of cinnamon and peppermint. It was a taste as addictive as any drug. And she knew that she would never get sick of it, and she would always crave more.

He had known she would be responsive. He'd always known that when Rose was into something she gave it her whole attention. It had not been his plan to kiss her- it just happened- and it felt so right.

After all that she had been through- her fight to find her way back to him, the danger she had put herself through- he had just dropped her off in Norway with no goodbye. Something in him finally snapped. He could no longer hold back and her eyes gave him permission to take what, he had been craving since she had laid that kiss on him after the memory of New Earth. Now he couldn't remember why he'd been waiting so long.

He had taken his sweet time connecting their lips. Their first kiss was to be remembered- it had to be special. He thought he may have succeeded, with the way Rose was kissing him back. She tasted like nothing he could have ever imagine- but he could taste hints of chocolate, spearmint, popcorn, a taste that was Rose alone and just a hint of pear. He hated pears, but on her it was the most amazing taste.

He would never be able to stop doing this now that he had started; now that he had given in. Now that she had given in. He hoped that she would continue to get better and not stop now that they had reached this point. He felt her trace his teeth with her mouth and suck his lower lip before pulling back to take a gasp of air.

He could not help himself- his lips placed tender kisses along her neck and up her jaw before he gently kissed her again. He pulled away.

They sat there, both trying to regain breath. When Rose spoke all she could say was, "wow."

He beamed, knowing his smile was cocky as was his voice. "Good, eh? Told you I had the moves, Rose Tyler."

"You should have boasted more," she replied breathlessly. And- just like that- they were grinning like fools at each other.

"You don't regret it, do you?" she asked suddenly. "Because I swear if you tell me you're sor-"

Her words were cut off by his mouth on hers again. It was a brief kiss, but fierce. He pulled back, but kept her face in his hands. "The only thing I regret, Rose, is that I didn't do that sooner."

Her eyes filled with hope. "You wanted to do that before? Since when?"

He knew this was coming and he decided he'd be honest. "In my last body I thought about you a lot, but never really thought about kissing you- at least not until the end after Margaret in Cardiff. And even then I was not sure that was what I wanted. But then I regenerated and things became much more clear. I was born for you, Rose. This body was of your creation, though I denied it for a long time. I even sound a bit like you, haven't you noticed? I think the first time I thought about kissing you was werewolves and Scotland. You landed on the grating, laughing, and I looked over at you and- Rose, you were so beautiful and so happy, I wanted to reach over and kiss you. But I chickened out and pulled you up."

Her eyes were now full of wonder. "I wouldn't have minded, Doctor. I wanted you to kiss me since after the Slitheens in number 10," she admitted. "Mum said she would have to be nice to you now since I was smitten with you. I denied it, but then you called and I realized that I was- well, a bit smitten." He smiled that smile that made her go red in the face.

He sat there, smiling at Rose like a fool- then realized she had mentioned her mum. That surprised him. In all the weeks she had been with him again, her mum, Pete and little Tony had never come up. Not since the outburst she had experienced when she first got here. He did not know whether to mention her slip or let it slide for the time being. He decided to let it go for now. He really needed to get her to the med bay and run some scans. Not knowing what was going on with her was driving him crazy. He hated not knowing.

He leaned in again and brushed his lips lightly across hers. He pulled away before it could heat up. She mumbled as his lips left hers. He smiled at her before saying, "come along, Rose. We have some tests to run. Got to figure out what's happening with that wolf in you."

She nodded, grudgingly released her hold on him, and got up. He followed, taking her hand as they walked, stealing kisses every now and then. The TARDIS had conveniently made the walk to the med bay longer which meant more kisses in the halls. When they reached the door he gave her one last tender kiss before tucking a stray hair behind her ear. "Let's see what's going on with you, Rose Tyler."


YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT. PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR THOUGHTS. AND DON'T GO THINKING THINGS ARE GOING TO BE SIMPLE FOR THEM NOW THAT THIS HAPPEND.
