Chapter 7

Hey sorry I always have such short chapters. I am trying to make them longer but it's not working so well. Thanks for reading and following. It is great, enjoy.

Rose and Katie shared the living room and the Doctor slept down stairs. In the morning, during breakfast they told some stories about Rome and traveling. The younger kids were enthralled and begged for more. The adults however asked about plans.

"So Katie what are your plans for after this visit?" her father asked. "I plan on traveling again but I this time I will keep in touch." "Thomas," The Doctor started "I would like Katie to travel with us but I want to have your blessing before we go." "You are the ones who talked her into coming home; I will happily give my blessing. Just see that she calls and visits sometimes, okay." Rose smiled at Katie, "see I told you he would let you come." Katie just shook her head and smiled. Throughout the day Rose and the Doctor met several members of Katie's family and knew that they couldn't possibly remember them all.

Katie and Rose got sent to go pick up some of her cousins from school. They walked a few blocks and easily found the school. It took a lot longer to find the proper classrooms. When they stepped into a third grade classroom, the teacher asked who they were and Katie responded, "My name is Katie and I am looking for a Prince." Rose looked confused, but the teacher seemed to understand. She turned to look at the students and called for a boy named Eddie. She said, "Eddie, your ride is here." "Actually we're more like company because we just walk them to our grandparents' house." Katie corrected. A small blond haired little boy came down the aisle and looked at her and said, "Katie is that really you?" when she nodded he spoke again saying, "I haven't seen you since I was five," then he hugged her really big, as big as a third grader can and she just laughed.

At the end of the day the three said their goodbyes, promised to stay in touch and then they headed to the TARDIS. They hitched a ride to the proper part of town and then walked slowly to the TARDIS. When they reached it Katie helped the Doctor send her into the time vortex and then they all went to their rooms in search of some much needed rest that probably wouldn't be found.
