Guys, we are on the penultimate chapter.

Thank you for the reviews.

Now for another nice and bright chapter.


Chapter 19

The Travelling

"Clara, what are you doing?"

She stopping packing before she turned to her father. The worried look on his face told her that he already knew what she was doing and perhaps going to do, but she needed to confirm it for hi,.

"I am packing. Twelve has his TARDIS outside. We aren't leaving straight away. We are going to spend tonight here and then leave in the morning. Father, I am finally going to go traveling. I can finally see the 101 things to see in the book that mother gave me. Twelve doesn't want to sit still and neither do I. We are both still young and we both want to explore the universe."

"You're my only child, Clara." He argued.

"I know. I don't expect you to let me go easily but I will write from wherever I am, telling you that I am safe. Endor is the only place that we will have a tie to. Twelve is never going to become the High Lord of Gallifrey and his responsibilities are as small as are mine. We now might be a Lord and Lady of Gallifrey but we can also live a semi-normal life. I want that father. I don't want to be tied to my title, nor does Twelve."

"You are just like your mother," Dave said as he sat down on the bed. "She wanted to disappear until it was time for me to take my father's seat. She was always the more adventurous out of us. I always said that we could and it never happened. My father got ill and then you were born and we just learnt to love the little things in life. Go and see the universe."

She hugged him tightly. "I will miss you."

"I will miss you too."


"There you are. I have been looking all over for you." Clara said as she found Twelve.

"Just mingling. Linda was pulling me to meet all these different people. I am so glad that you are back now."

"Here is the key back. Placed most of my stuff in there. Got to have something to come back home for."

He sighed as he looked around at the people in the room. "I know you might want to socialise more but I have socialised enough to last me for the next couple of years. Part of me wants to start our… night. If you get what I mean."

Clara just giggled. "These might be mainly my guests but they are more my father's."

"You don't have any weird customs about how it happens."

"I hope not. Maybe if we do sneak off now, we won't find out."

Twelve reached for her hand before pulling her across the room towards the exit. As soon as they were in the corridor, they ran down them, hand in hand. Clara hoped that there would be more of these moments together. It was them against the universe now.

As they stopped outside of her chambers, Clara instantly pulled him down for a kiss. Everything that she wanted to say in that moment was said with that kiss. Like this day had been the best day of her life. Like she wouldn't want to be married to anyone else. Like she wished that every day was happy like this one.

The door shut heavily as Twelve kicked it closed and continued to carry her towards her bed. He gently laid her down before they broke from their kiss. As they laid there, with him on top of her, she couldn't help but cup his cheeks as she took him in. This man was now her husband. He was hers until the end of one of their days.

He gave her smile before kissing her again. This was it now. She really hoped that the night would be just as good as the day.


Twelve knew that he didn't need as much sleep as Clara did and he knew that he should have woken her when he got out of her bed, but she had looked so beautiful and calm that he couldn't bring himself to break the spell that she was under. She knew where he would be. She would find him once she was ready to say goodbye to Endor.

He still couldn't believe his luck with everything. He had a beautiful wife and they were about to explore the universe together. There was nothing more that he wanted from life at the moment. He knew that the time for children would come, but he hoped for a few adventures before then. He raised his head as the door opened and Clara joined him.

"Ready?" He asked.

She smiled at him before nodding and joining him at the console.

"I know the perfect place for our first stop. I think we should have a honeymoon and honestly, this is the most relaxing place that I have ever been to."

"Sounds like a plan."

Twelve smiled as he placed to co-ordinates into the computer before stepping towards a lever. He gestured for Clara to come to where he was.

"Just hold that and spin it around when I pull down this." He said, pointing at the lever that he wanted her to pull.

"Can't pilot it by yourself."

"Clara, the console is hexagonal for a reason. It is supposed to take six people to pilot it. I can do it by myself but I now share everything with you. Just grab the lever."

He watched as she grabbed the lever and spun it as he pulled down his. The TARDIS started to make a groaning sound as she set off to the coordinates put into her system. The laughter that fell from his wife's lips was amazing. He hoped that wherever they went, she would be this excited.

The next stop for Twelve and Clara was everywhere and anywhere.
