Rory's POV:
"Looking groovy, Mr. Pond." Amy said as she entered the kitchen. The nursing staff took turns hosting a party every month, & this month was our turn. We had decided to go with a 70s Disco theme.
"Well, it helps that our costumes are authentic." I said. We had just gotten back from a trip with the Doctor a few days ago. "I still can't believe we ran into a bunch of kids & their dog, riding in a van & solving mysteries…"
"I still can't believe that that old man was actually a blood sucking alien." Amy said as she refilled a snack bowl.
"He would've gotten away with it too, if hadn't been for us meddling travelers." I said.
"Yeah, next time we're in the 70s, we should try to find the Partridge Family!" Amy said, laughing.
"Next time?" said a voice from behind us, laughing. "You guys have a time machine lying around or something?" It was Ella, one of the other nurses. Amy & I froze for a second, before forcing ourselves to laugh…awkwardly.
We shared a look. How were we going to explain this one?
"Uh…"
"Well…"
"It's…It's just a jump to the left." Amy said, giving me a pointed look.
"Then a step to the right." I said.
"With your hands on your hips, you bring your knees in tight."
I blushed as I realized what line was next. "But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane."
"Let's do the Time Warp again." Amy & I finished, half singing.
Ella just stared at us for a moment. Would she buy it…or think we were completely nuts?
Ella laughed. "Oh, you guys! You had me going there for a minute." We laughed along with her, relieved. Ella grabbed a handful of pretzels from Amy's bowl before going back to the party.
"That was close." I whispered to Amy. She nodded.
"Might want to make sure the punch bowl has a little extra kick, just to be safe…"
It's funny which songs randomly get stuck in your head, isn't it? At least this time, it led to a story idea (as well as a good excuse to watch the Doctor Who Time Warp fan video again…)
