Hey guys! So, this is my first prompt, hope I do them justice. The prompt, as you can see from the chapter title, was Doctor Who, Cookies and Dreams, 10th Doctor. They also requested slight angst, not sure how it's going to work out though. Enjoy!
Imagine yourself sitting down at your dinning room table, late at night, with a glass of warm milk and a plate of your favorite cookies. You're tired, but you can't get to sleep. Something woke you up, a nightmare, a strange noise, you don't know. As you munch you stare out of the window, watching the lights of cars as they pass you by. There's something calming about it, the sound of the car rushing past and the blinding light moving past your window.
Your eyes are just starting to close when you hear it. The sound you've been waiting for practically your whole life. Instantly you're out of your chair and rushing to the door. You don't even pause once it's unlocked, you simply rush out of the door and into the yard. Glancing around you into the dark you see it, the light from the lantern flashing as it materializes. You run, only stopping when you reach the door. Your hand shakes as you reach up to knock, not out of fear, but excitement. You knock three times, tempted to knock once more, but figuring it'd be best if you didn't. After all, you don't know which Doctor you'll be facing. The TARDIS door opens and a wild mop of brown hair pops out, a confused look on his face. Your face stretches into a grin.
"What?" He asks, his brows furrowing. You hold back a laugh.
"Oh, this is brilliant!" You exclaim, jumping up in joy.
"What?!" He asks, louder. You know how this conversation will continue, so you decide to speed it up.
"Your name's the Doctor, you're a Time Lord, the last one at that. You're from the planet Gallifrey in the system of Kasterboros, and that blue box behind you is the TARDIS. It stands for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, a name your granddaughter Susan made up. It's bigger on the inside, or smaller on the outside, both are acceptable, and is a fully sentient being. Now, you're going to say 'what' one more time after this, so you might as well get it out." You pause, and, as predicted, the alien in front of you says 'what'. You smile and laugh.
"How- how do you know that?" He asks. You laugh again.
"It's wibbily wobbily, timey wimey. The big question is, where are you? I mean, in your timeline." You try to glance behind him, but he's blocking the entrance. "Where's Rose?" You ask, knowing that you'll be able to tell something about where he is by the way he reacts. His body stiffens and his brown eyes sadden. You know he's lost her, but which time?
"I don't know who you are, or how you know these things about me, but don't you ever mention Rose ever again." He says, practically growling. The first time then. He probably just left Donna then. Or he hasn't said goodbye yet. Looking over his brown suit, you come to the conclusion that he hasn't found the crack. You rest your hand on his shoulder.
"I'm sorry. I really am. But you will see her again, very soon. And when you do, you have to tell her how you feel. You have to, no matter what." Your eyes lock with his and you see both guilt and understanding in them. You rest your hand on his arm and squeeze lightly.
"Thank you." He whispers. You smile and turn, knowing that it's not your time yet. The TARDIS dematerializes as you walk toward your house. You enter and lock the door behind you. You head to your bed, not cleaning up your cookies. You lay back in bed and relax. As soon as your eyes close you hear the sound of your alarm clock. They snap open again, and suddenly it's morning. You get out of bed and head to the dinning room, expecting your dishes to be out. When they're not, you walk into the kitchen, expecting them to be there instead. They're not there either. You sag as you realize that it was just a dream.
Hope that lived up to your expectations! Not sure how well I did on the angst, it's not something I usually write. Sorry if I disappointed you! Next prompt I need is one for Sherlock! As soon as I get the review, I'll write it and post it as soon so possible!
