Eternal Awesomosity gave me the idea for this one!

"No, Tarrant, don't touch the zigzag plotter!" Emma swept the toddler into her arms so the lever was out of reach. "I swear, you are your father."

"Zig...zag..." He scrunched up his nose. "Potter!" A grin lit up his face as he looked at her, awaiting her approval.

"Yes." She couldn't help but laugh. "Zeegzag pott-ah is very close to zigzag plotter." A crash from somewhere in the TARDIS made her jump. "Sounds like Dani and Daddy are causing trouble. Let's go see." She adjusted him on her hip and made her way up the stairs and through the hall, until she came to the kitchen. "What are you two- Danika! You're absolutely covered in flour." Tarrant squirmed in her arms, so she set him on the floor before turning to the Doctor. "You, too?" She looked him over, taking note that only the top half of him was coated in the white powder.

"Are you mad, Mummy?" Dani asked.

"Yeah, are you mad, Mummy?"

She shook her head, smiling as they both pouted at her. "No, I'm just wondering why I wasn't invited to this flour fight."

"You look like alien!" All attention was on Tarrant as he pointed at Danika, giggling to himself.

"I am an alien!" She raised her arms. "Grr!" She began chasing her little brother around the kitchen island. Emma made her way over to the Doctor, shaking some flour out of his hair.

"Still think letting them on the TARDIS was a good idea?"

He grinned. "I think it was a brilliant idea! Look at them, pretending to fight aliens. I can tell they'll have loads of fun travelling...to earth and the safest planets I know of." He mumbled that, brushing off his bow tie.

"Aw," she grabbed onto his jacket, tugging on it. "you're cute when you're protective."

"That's the first compliment you've ever given me!" She glared and he smiled. "So, do you ever...think about having another one?"

"Another one? I've already had two! How many of these do you expect me to pop out?"

"At least ten more!" She made her hand into a fist and punched him in the arm. "Ow! Alright, let's start with one more. I mean, it wouldn't hurt to try, would it?"

She huffed, crossing her arms over her chest. "For your information, we might not have to try."

"Wait, you mean-"

"Maybe. Don't get all excited! It's not official yet, but..." she looked down at the floor, biting her bottom lip to keep from grinning. "maybe."

"Daddy!" Tarrant clung onto his father's leg just as Dani grabbed Emma's hand. "Save me from the alien!"

Dani dragged her across the kitchen. "You're my hostage, Mummy! Tarrant and Daddy have to save you, or I'll let my pet Griffin eat you!" She gave a maniacal laugh.

"Did you hear that?" The Doctor crouched to the floor, putting a hand on Tarrant's back. "We have to save Princess Emma from the evil genius, Danika Hope Walker! Or, as I like to call her, Strange...uh, Flour Alien." He leaned closer to whisper, "Alright, you tackle your sister, I'll get the Princess." With that, the toddler screamed and ran across the room, jumping onto Dani. "Atta boy!" The Doctor chuckled and made his way to Emma.

"My hero." She put the back of her hand on her forehead, faking a swoon. "Tarrant, get off of Dani." She said without even looking at the children. They immediately pulled apart.

"Daddy, you have to kiss her! It's the rules."

"Well," he rolled his eyes jokingly. "I suppose, if it's the rules..." He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her lips. When he pulled back, Emma was surprised to see a very familiar gleam in his eye. "Even if you are, you know...could we still try?"

"Try what, Daddy?" The innocence of Dani's question caused a blush to heat up his face.

"Uh, river dancing! Never tried river dancing before!" He cleared his throat.

"You were a much better liar when you were younger." Emma smirked. "You get them in their coats, I'll call Amy and Rory and see if they can sit for us."

A/N - So, there's that. Okay, so if you're wondering why I chose the names...Tarrant means "traveller; journey across" and I thought it sounded like something the Doctor would pick out. And Danika means "morning star? and it sounded like a name Emma would pick. Anyway, the next chapter will be back in the present, I promise!
