This is the end! The last chapter! I hope you all enjoyed my story; I appreciate everyone's reviews (I can't seem to say that enough!) So I hope you enjoy the end of this tale of friendship: "May I Have This Dance?"
The Doctor's eyes flashed open and his body shot up into the air, not realizing where he was. "Yowah!" He smacked his head on the TARDIS viewing screen hanging above his head. He appeared to have passed out on the TARDIS control console. He rubbed his head and moaned. "I should never say that again either…"
"Doctor?" A voice rose from around the center vacuum control tube. From around the cylinder in the center, the girl with red hair, green eyes and freckles came into his view. "Are you all right?" Amy Pond stood there, as plain as day. She looked the same way she had looked when she disappeared five days ago. When she was dead.
"Amy?" The Doctor gasped and ran over to her. "Is that really you?" He grabbed her hand with both of his.
She looked around like he was crazy. "Um, yes. I'm here. I've been here, you know, for a while." She laughed. "You must've have hit your head really hard. Rory?" She called down to the lower deck. "Come check out the Doctor, he's acting funny."
"Isn't he always acting funny?" Rory's voice came closer as his nose and he came into view.
"Oi! Just get up here," Rory came over and stood next to Amy, wrapping his arm around her waist. The Doctor just stood mouth agape and pale.
"He does look a bit funny," He waved his hand across the Doctor's vision. "Hello? Doctor? You okay?"
"Okay!" He took the couple and embraced them into a great bear hug. "I'm better than okay!" He kissed both their heads. "You were here, and then you were gone and now you're here! Woo-hoo!" He ran to the edge of the deck and yelled to the back of the TARDIS: "River Song! Get your sexy butt over here!" He turned around and flashed his impish grim at the couple, then he began to dance around the deck.
Amy and Rory just looked at each other like he was completely bonkers; He was just the famous mad man in his blue box. "What is going on out—"River came running onto the deck and before she could finish the Doctor grabbed her around the waist and kissed her straight on the lips. Rory rolled his eyes. "Goodness me! What's gotten into you?" The Doctor kissed her again after she finished, and River just stood there stunned.
"I'm great! Nothing wrong!"
Amy poked his side. "Hey, be careful what you do to my daughter in my sight," The Doctor winked. "And out of my sight for that matter." Rory gagged.
"So where to?" The Doctor ran over to the console and started punching in numbers and equations. "I'm thinking, New Saturn's Moon Amusent Park in 5441! What do you think?"
"Doctor?" Amy came over to his side and took his arm. "Are you really okay? You seem a bit jumpy and," She smirked. "Hormonal."
He stopped what he was doing and just smiled, pulling Amy into another huge hug. "Let's just say," He patted her back and leaned his head into her wonderful smelling hair. "I've learned the true value of friendships." He kissed her on the forehead and smiled. "Especially yours."
Amy went over to Rory and mouthed: What happened? Rory just shrugged and River stood by the Doctor's side, smiling and holding one of his hands. "New Saturn?" River asked and the Doctor pulled the lever that made the TARDIS go! They were all thrown back a bit, but the Doctor just laughed with excitement. The good days were back.
"What were we talking about?" The Doctor couldn't help smiling when he saw everyone standing together. His family back together. "Before I started acting funny?"
"Just Amy's senior year." Rory brushed Amy's hair behind her ear and Amy stuck her tongue out at him. "Remember, her prom?"
"Oh right, what a prom that was." The Doctor folded his arms matter-of-factly, and everyone just gave him a strange look. "What?" He held up his hands. "It was interesting!"
"How would you know?" Amy just stared at him strangely and squeezed Rory's hand. "All I said about it was I danced with Rory all night and I woke up in the hospital the next day from dehydration." Then she stopped. "That's all I remember anyway!" She looked curiously and then came closer to the Doctor. "Do you know anything about it?"
"No way!" The Doctor just turned back to the console and adjusted the navigation panel. River smirked; she knew her Doctor was lying. He was a sneaky one. "Speaking of dancing—"The Doctor hit a button on the TARDIS and a familiar song began to play:
Moving forward using all my breath…
The Doctor held out his hand to Amy: "May I have this dance?" Rory rolled his eyes, but let the two dance on across the TARDIS platform. Even River grabbed Rory to dance with someone.
I'll stop the world and melt with you…
"This is nice," Amy laughed and leaned her head into his chest. "It feels somewhat familiar." She frowned and looked up to the Doctor. "Why's that?"
"You're blushing Amelia." Amy grabbed her face, which was hot with a blush and smiled.
She then quickly went back to dancing normally and laughed. "Amy, remember?"
"I remember." The Doctor smirked and squeezed his arm around her waist. "Do you still promise to keep me with you forever in your heart and memories?"
Amy looked strangely at him as if she didn't understand what he said, yet a response still came from her soft lips: "I promise."
"May I cut in?" River grabbed the Doctor's arm suddenly and pulled him into a close embrace. "You are quite the dancer!"
He winked. "You know it 'Mrs. Robinson'." They both laughed.
All four people laughed as they danced together in this moment. In a time-traveling blue box, through the stars, to New Saturn. The Doctor adjusted the monitors of the TARDIS, but River still stayed close by. Amy and Rory danced along, and the Doctor gave her a thumbs up. Amy blushed.
True friendship never goes away. Even if someone dies, and you can't save them, friendship goes on. True love is strong, but true friendship is stronger. It will go on forever, past the stars, past time and always create a perfect Utopia for true friends to live in together.
"So 'Legs', 'Nose', and 'Sexy Number 2'? After New Saturn, where will our journeys take us next?" The Doctor smiled and the TARDIS materialized on a foreign planet with people who made every place he traveled home.
