If there was one thing the Doctor was, it was full of energy.

Every day, he'd awake Rose with an enthusiastic kiss on her forehead, or - if he felt cheeky or was in a spectacular mood - on the lips. She would giggle groggily and hit him before turning over and clinging to the final seconds of sleep. Each day, he would try to make amazing, whether it was going to the London Eye and reminiscing or staying at home in their jim-jams watching movies. Rose adored him for it - she loved his constant energy.

But the Doctor was still growing accustom to his new human body, which meant he believed he still didn't need sleep.

At eight o' clock one unremarkable night, the Doctor collapsed on the sofa next to Rose. "Lets go to a pub!" he suggested enthusiastically.

Rose rolled her eyes. "Doctor, we went to a pub last night."

"And it was great!" he protested, grinning wildly.

Rose was beginning to catch up to his excitement. She was about to cave in when the Doctor let out a huge yawn.

"You're tired!" Rose laughed, amused. The Doctor's eyes went wide.

"Impossible!" he scoffed. "I'm a Time Lord. Time Lords don't get tired. We don't need as much sleep as humans. Superior brains and all."

"Yeah, but you aren't fully Time Lord," Rose reminded him gleefully. The Doctor shuddered. "You're part human, which means your superior brain is moot if you're tired!"

"But I'm not tired!" the Doctor argued. Rose giggled, and the Doctor yawned again. "No! No, I'm not! I'm not tired."

"You sound like Tony, trying to stay out of bed," Rose teased. The Doctor pouted.

"This isn't funny, Rose," he whined. "I never get tired! Never. That's the great thing about Time Lords. We never run out of energy."

"I've noticed," Rose commented, bemused.

"And it comes in handy when I'm off rescuing people, playing hero, being wizard!" the Doctor continued. "I can't exactly be a hero if I'm tired or asleep."

"There are people out there who don't want you to save them," Rose giggled.

"Oi!" the Doctor said, jabbing a finger at Rose. "Watch it, Wolf Girl."

Rose grinned and poked the Doctor's side. "Come off it, then. Off to bed with you. There are plenty of people who need saving tomorrow."

"Rose, I'm not - " the Doctor began, but his protests were cut off with a yawn. Rose giggled again and grabbed the Doctor's hand, pulling him up and towards the bedroom.

"Yes, you are, you plum," she informed him. "You are, believe it or not, human."

The Doctor pouted again, and Rose was reminded once more of her younger brother, Tony. "You really are acting like a child," she said, stretching up on her toes to kiss him. He beamed.

"Then, I suppose, I'm half-alright," he said.
