I stick by it! I'm trying to do as many updates as possible before Christmas! :D


27

Nick stood with a shopping bag in his hand staring bluntly at the street magician in front of him and the small crowd. "What a scammer," he muttered when he made something disappear. Sighing and walking down the street. "Whereas you two are brilliant at vanishing," he eyed up the TARDIS as it fully materialized. Phil practically ripped the door open and ran out, "Hi...wait..." Nick watched her bolt past him and down the road. Turning to look at Doctor he pointed to Phil who could only still be seen running.

"What's wrong with her?"

"Something about a wedding?"

"Oh...oh! The wedding! I didn't know that was today," Nick said while looking behind him. Luckily the TARDIS had landed relatively close to Nick and Phil's home. Phil appeared trying to catch her breath back while carrying a suit bag and a black rucksack. "Have fun, major bummer I'm not invited."

"Why would you?"

"Oh! Look who's in a good mood this morning!"

"Sorry," Phil said in a quiet voice, Nick grinned and waved a hand at her, she nodded at his bag. "Meal for one again?"

"My evenings are so lonely without you there Phil!" Nick exclaimed dramatically and nodded to the Doctor and the TARDIS. "You better get going. And no there's not a meal for one in this bag, I have you know there's tons of pointless snacks."

"See you later Nick," Phil smiled and walked back into the TARDIS Nick shook his head and waved at them before walking towards his home.


Doctor eyed up the suit bag and got ushered away from it, Phil walked up the stairs and then peered around the corner, "Can we go to London now please?"

"You're being so bossy Phil!"

"Sorry!" She grinned and disappeared, Doctor stood and listened to her bedroom door shut. Turning to the console he shrugged and typed on the keys, holding onto the console for a few minutes he let go when all fell still again.

It was very silent, there was no sound coming from Phils room, nodding his head he took to brushing imaginary dust off of the console. He frowned, a wedding? Whose wedding? Was it Phils wedding? Surely not, Doctor distinctly remembered Nick saying there was no one involved in her love life. Hitting himself on the forehead Doctor crossed his arms, if it was her wedding he would be happy for her.

"Oh I wish you could see your face! The confusion is just epic!" Snapping out of his thoughts he looked to the stairs, staring wide eyed at Phil she frowned. "Is it that bad?" She questioned, she was standing wearing a long dark red dress which had some sort of dark pattern to it. There was also thin material attached to it which acted as three quarter length sleeves. Much like the dress there was a dark pattern on the sleeves too. Phil had curled her natural curly hair more so the curls hung in tight ringlets. Although the majority of her hair had been tied up off of her neck and shoulders.

Phil put a hand over her mouth to try and hide the growing grin, "Could it possibly be that for once the Doctor is speechless? A sudden lost for words perhaps?" She walked down the stairs carefully and up to him, frowning she shook her head. "You need to get changed."

"W-what? Excuse me! I do not need to get changed, my clothes are cool enough for this wedding."

Phil shook her head, "It's a black suit affair."

"No."

"You're being stubborn!" Phil exclaimed and crossed her arms narrowing her green eyes up at him. Doctor shook his head stubbornly, looking down at her he had to admit this was the first time that he'd even seen her wearing any sort of make up. She had dark eye shadow on which made her bright green eyes stand out more, Phil was a rather pretty woman anyway so she never bothered with make up.

"Ok, what if I just say," she paused to put a hand under her chin in thought. "You look ever more suave in a black suit?"

"I do?"

"Uh-huh oh yeah yeah sure thing you do." Phil nodded remembering the suit he wore when they went to America, she frowned trying to forget the rather dramatic experience which happened there.

"You're just saying that!"

"What?" Phil shook her head and looked up at him. Doctor just crossed his arms and looked at her seriously. "No I'm not! You look adorable in the clothes you live in but you look extremely suave in a black suit."

"I go from suave to adorable? Phil! I think I'll just sit this wedding out."

"But Erin wants to meet you!"

"Erin?"

"The smiley happy blond woman? The one you tried to force me to be friends with? Remember her?"

"Oh! You became friends with her in the end without my help!" Doctor exclaimed happily and watched Phil smile lightly and nod her head. "You told her about me?"

"I missed out the parts where you live in a vanishing box, you're often deemed as a mad man with a box. You run around a lot and sometimes wave a strange torch around while doing so. Oh and that you're an alien." Phil said simply Doctor shook his head and looked at her.

"I dread to think what you described me as."

"If I remember rightly," Phil said while pushing him towards the stairs. "A funny, silly man. Who is incredibly witty and very smart. And who also shares my love for tea and Jammy Dodger biscuits." She giggled, Doctor looked over his shoulder at her and started walking up the stairs. "See! I described you in a rather nice way I think." Phil turned away from the stairs and walked back to the console.

Doctor took one last look at her before running down the corridor, he wouldn't be lying if he said he felt slight relief that Phil wasn't the one getting married. Skidding into the wardrobe part of the TARDIS Doctor frowned, was he feeling a slight sense of jealousy?

Soon changing and walking back down the corridor he walked down the stairs, Phil turned and smiled. "See! What's wrong with that?"

"I don't like it."

"You're like a little child," Phil laughed and put a hand to her chin, "What is it you don't like?"

Doctor didn't answer but instead lifted up the tie, Phil rolled her eyes and resisted the urge to laugh. Holding up a hand she walked up the stairs, "I had a feeling something like this would occur." She reappeared again and held her hands out. "I doubt you could find one in your wardrobe considering how large it is." She reached out and undid the tie, pulling the material out from underneath his collar she put it on the railing beside her. Tiptoeing slightly she replaced it with the item she was holding and took a step back.

"Better?"

"Much! Thank you Phil! You're right I probably have one somewhere but I wouldn't know where to look," Doctor mused and looked down at the black bow tie Phil had put on him.

"Ready now? Think of it this way, even if you don't want to go you're amazing with people. Also there's obviously an after party and you get to dance, I know how much you like to dance." Phil joked and walked up to the door.

"Only if you dance with me."

Phil pushed the door open and turned to look at him, "Sure thing." She smiled and watched him close the door to the TARDIS and stand beside her. Lifting out his arm the two just smiled wider when she put her arm in his and walked down the street.
