AN: When you've finished reading this you'll probably go 'oh my god, that was pants' because that's the look I gave myself in the mirror when I finished writing it, next part is better, here's hoping :P

"Alright so where have you landed us?"

The Master went to look at the screen but the Doctor blocked his view.

"No! You said you wanted a surprise."

The Master rolled his eyes and went to the TARDIS doors; he opened them and walked out onto the planet's surface. He didn't recognise the planet, but it was night time, splashes of colour lit the night sky up like exploding stars, clearly there was some kind of festival on, he walked from the TARDIS and from the alley they'd parked in, when he reached the street he was greeted with the sight of the planet's population, barely humanoid aliens, some green, some blue, purple, pink, red, all colours, streamers and banners decorated the streets, traditional music played, he rolled his eyes, was this the best the Doctor could do?

A teenage alien boy came up to him.

"We welcome you to our planet traveller."

He then put a garland around his neck, kissed him on the cheek and then ran off to join a group of his friends, the Master jumped when the Doctor crept up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't do that! You nearly frightened the life out of me."

"Sorry. Hey, looks like you've got an admirer." The Doctor said looking at the garland of flowers around the Master's neck.

"Hmm...He kissed me on the cheek; I'm not going to catch anything am I?"

"Don't be silly. Even if you do you're a Time Lord, you couldn't die from it."

The Doctor took the Master's hand and walked off, dragging the Master behind him.

"Hey! I'm not one of your companions you can just drag around."

"Who's dragging? You just can't keep up."

The Master yanked his hand from the Doctor's and stood there.

"Oh come on Master." The Doctor whined watching the Master cross his arms like a defiant child.

"I'm not moving another inch until you tell me what your hurry is."

"We'll miss it if you don't stop sulking."

"Miss what?"

"Miss what I brought you here to see, this festival goes on all week, we've got plenty of time to see that, what I want to show you is one night only."

"Well why didn't you say so?"

The Master followed the Doctor out of the Town and through a set of woods.

"Doctor for heavens sake, they have transporters for this."

"I know but they take you to the stands to watch the display, I don't want to be in the stands, I'd much rather a more romantic setting."

That made the Master stop again.

"What did you just say?"

The Doctor stopped and sighed, turning around.

"I said a nicer setting now come on."

"No you didn't, you said romantic."

"So what if I did?"

"So what everything, what is this?"

"What's what?"

"This. Bringing me here to see some alien firework display, is this a date?"

"Don't be silly."

"Doctor, you can lie to your companions, but you can't lie to me."

"Fine! I'd have liked this to be a date but clearly it isn't because you're all miserable and grumpy."

"Well you can hardly expect me to be happy."

"Why not?"

"Well you could have at least told me it was meant to be a date for starters."

"Master I have known you too long, if I had said 'oh by the way this is a date' you would have instantly stormed to your room like a child, locked yourself in and tried your hardest to tell me you're not gay and that you don't care for me even though I know they're both lies."

The Doctor sighed and sat down in the middle of the clearing they'd stopped in. The Master looked down at him and sighed.

"Now who's stalling, I thought you had something to show me."

"Pointless now. I think we've missed it."

"Doctor you have a time machine."

"Yeah but it's taken all the spontaneity out of it now, now you know where we're going."

"Is this all because you told me you love me."

"What?"

"Before you got my memories back, you told me you love me, I remember that."

"Great, go on, laugh at me."

"Why would I laugh at you?"

"Because you just can't love me back, I know you can't, well not really can't love me, more like won't love me."

The Master sighed and sat down next to the Doctor.

"If that's what you think." He replied flippantly and then lay down and looked up at the starry sky.

"Master don't joke, it's not funny."

"Whose joking? You cut me short you do Doctor. That's the problem with you, you think you know me but what you think you know is really what you expect."

The Doctor looked down at the Master who was now staring at him.

"Are you saying what I think you're saying?"

The Master smiled and stood up.

"Come on Doctor, we can still go and see what you wanted to see."

"It's finished."

"Yeah but if I'm correct in thinking that you've picked a hillside, we can still sit there."

The Master smiled at the Doctor again and ran in the direction they had been walking in the first place.

"Catch me if you can Doctor!"

The Doctor grinned and took off after the Master. They never made it to the Cliffside he'd picked out, they ended up playing a childish game of tag around the woods, with various natives wondering what was going on, in the end though the colourful natives determined it was some sort of mating ritual.

After their humiliating game of tag they returned to the Town, they were greeted by the boy who had placed the garland around the Master's neck, next to him was a man dressed in white robes, presumably the leader of the planet.

"My humble congratulations to you both."

The two Time Lords looked at each other and shrugged.

"Thanks."

"We insist that you stay here tonight, as a gesture of thanks for choosing our planet. My son who I believe you've met shall show you the way to your accommodation."

The Master and the Doctor followed the pink boy to their overnight room, which was fairly lavish considering they hadn't actually done anything.
