When the Doctor knocked on Vastra and Jenny's door Strax answered. "Oh, hello Doctor. I see you have brought the boy with you. May I have your coats?" He extended his hand.
Clara was about when the Doctor said, "Don't even bother. He'll forget anyway. Thank you Strax." He handed Strax his coat and entered the home. He soon found Vastra and Jenny sitting next to each other around the dining room table.
"Ah, here comes the lovely engaged couple! Come have a seat." Jenny said, gesturing to the two seats in front of her.
Both the Doctor and Clara smiled as they sat down. "Oh, that is a magnificent ring. Where did you get it, Doctor?" Vastra asked, looking at the ring on Clara's left hand.
"Oh, I got it especially made in the Helix Nebula. It was quite difficult to get actually, but it was definitely worth it." He said, smiling warmly at Clara.
She smiled back and looked at the ring. "I think it's perfect." She said proudly.
Vastra smiled too and said, "So, the wedding! What do you two have planned? Have you thought about a honeymoon yet? Oh, what about after you're married? Are you two thinking of kids? I'm not even sure if that's possible, considering that you're a time lord and she's a human. Yeah, so no kids. Are you two going to settle down somewhere? Or would you much rather keep traveling in the TARDIS? Wait, what would Clara's new last name be?"
"Vastra! Sweetie, I believe you might be overwhelming them." Jenny said, gesturing to the couple. The Doctor's face was red, and Clara's eyes were wide.
Vastra said, "Oh, my apologies. This is just rather exciting. So, you can answer any question you'd like first.'
The Doctor straightened himself and asked, "Um, okay, what were the questions again?"
Before Vastra could answer Clara stood up. She took in a deep breath as she said, "I'm going to the loo. Be back in a second." She scurried off towards the restroom.
The Doctor was about to get up to comfort her when Vastra said, "No, just allow her a few minutes with her thoughts. Then Jenny can go talk to her. I'm afraid you and I would just make things worse." He looked at Vastra for a few seconds, before sighing and settling back down in his seat.
Jenny frowned at Vastra and said, "Well, you handled things well." Vastra sighed and looked down at her hands. She most certainly did not handle that well, and she hoped Jenny would be able to fix things.
ooooOOOoooo
Strax opened the restroom door, and was surprised to see Clara sitting on the toilet. The lid was down, and she was twirling a ring around in her fingers. "Sorry lad." Strax said, about to shut the door.
She shook her head and said, "No, its fine. All of my clothes are on. I'm just sitting here."
Strax entered the restroom. "Oh, well then. Madam Vastra has made a complaint about the toilet malfunctioning. I have come to obliterate it!"
Clara stood up as Strax pulled out some type of gun. "Um, couldn't you just fix it?"
"Well, of course I could. But what's the fun in that?" He said as he raised the gun up.
She quickly tried to pull the gun away from Strax, and said, "No, I will not have you blowing up the toilet!"
He grunted as he pulled the gun out of her grip. "Get back, boy! I have a duty to fulfill."
She frowned and stood in front of him. "I am a girl! Look Strax, I don't have time to be worrying about you ruining the loo right now. Could you just, give me some alone time?"
He stared at her before sighing. "Oh well. I suppose it would only be polite to ask what is on your mind. What are you worrying about?" He set down the gun.
She sat down on the toilet again. She started twirling her engagement ring around. "The Doctor and I's wedding. I really have no clue what I've gotten myself into. What would we do after we got married? We would need a house, wouldn't we? My dad would want to visit us from time to time, and we can't just bring him onto the TARDIS. Who knows how he would react to that. The Maitlands too. Oh god, I haven't even told them yet! How are they going to react to that? Would I still be able to be there nanny? Would I even need a job? Ugh, what do you think Strax?"
Strax coughed and asked, "So, a wedding, is that a human's way of reproducing?"
"Why am I even talking to you? You can't even tell the difference between a girl and a boy!" She said as she stood up. She shoved past him and walked back to the dining room. The Doctor turned his head towards her as she entered. She gave him a small, forced, smiled and said, "I'm kind of tired. Could you take me home now?"
He cleared his throat as he stood up. "Of course. Vastra, Jenny, thank you for having us. Sorry that it was such a short visit, but we must get going." He turned to Clara and held out his arm.
She took it and they started walking. Before they exited the door she turned back to Vastra. "Oh, and by the way. Strax has been threating to blow up the loo." She called. Vastra nodded her thanks and stood up as she heard a loud boom.
Clara chuckled lightly as they left. Once the door was closed the Doctor looked down at her and asked, "Are you okay?" She nodded quickly and averted her eyes. He could tell something was wrong. "Clara, I'm sorry if Vastra overwhelmed you. I haven't seen her that excited since her and Jenny got married! She must be happy for us."
Clara smiled up at him and said, "Yeah. It was just a lot to take in. I'm fine now."
She obviously wasn't. Even the Doctor could tell. As they reached the TARDIS he stopped her from entering. He took her face in his hands and said, "Clara, you can talk to me if there is anything bothering you. What is it?"
She sighed and looked up at him. "It's just that… there is so much I haven't even thought about yet. I wasn't even really thinking when I said yes to you. I was just… excited! But there are so many other things to worry about. We can't live in the TARDIS, so we'll need to get a house. I haven't even told the Maitlands about this yet, and I might not be able to be their nanny anymore. The kids are going to be crushed! We haven't made any wedding plans. We haven't even been thinking about our future! I'm just not sure if I'm ready for this."
The look in his eyes was defeat. He stuttered as he asked, "Are… are you… are you saying that you don't want to marry me anymore?" His voice was quivering, and Clara hated seeing him like this. His grasp on her face was becoming loose.
She put her hands on his to make sure he kept them there. She shook her head and said, "No! Not at all! I'm just saying that we have a lot to talk about. We need to get these things sorted. There is no way I wouldn't want to marry you, Chin Boy! Don't you ever think any differently." She smiled at him before pulling him down for a soft kiss.
When they pulled away from each other he was smiling. "Good." He said, before opening the TARDIS and stepping in. "Let's get talking then!"
