~~A.N.~~ Ok so this is me trying to write through my writers block, let's sees how this goes. If this is complete crap go ahead and tell me. Also I'm adding in River a little bit in this chapter because she becomes a big part soon. Ok also I want to try to add some Alexandra and Doctor romance... what's your guys opinion on that? until next chap ~ Writing Desk Of Ravens.

"You're going to do what now?" I was appalled and a bit terrified.

"I'm taking you shopping; we're going to get Medi's and Pedi's, just a fun girl's day!" Amy said overly excited.

I crossed my arms and narrowed my eyes, "What makes you think that I'm going to go with you?"

She smiled, I felt a deep chill go down my spine, and her smile... devious... she had a plan to make me go with her one way or the other whether I wanted too or not. I do have to say that I did fight them taking me all the way but in a short few hours...

Westfield Mall, London England.

I felt like a doll, my face plastered on, my clothes tight and a not just a little bit revealing, my nails lacquered dark purple, my hair in a long braid down my back. Though this was supposed to be a girl's day, I think it was Amy playing dress up Alexandra day; she seemed to thoroughly enjoying herself, since Amy was some sort of perfume model or whatever she paid for everything. It was lunch time now and I needed a moment to be by myself, do some of my own shopping... Jack had given me money to take care of myself with. While Amy skipped off to get us something to eat I felt myself drawn to a romantic gothic looking store.

I walked in and saw very... strange things... I was attracted to wall of choker necklaces. Some were bolder than others, I was looking at one that was a thin leather band and had a Celtic look cross hanging off of a center C ring that was embedded into the leather. I held it in my hands running my thumb over the dark, smooth leather; I was in my own little world, a woman's voice behind me made me jump so bad that I almost screamed. I spun on my heel to see a beautiful woman, she had light golden orange hair that was extremely curly and framed her face perfectly. She had a knowing expression on her face, something in my brain, one of the memories that didn't belong to me clicked in my head.

"River?" I asked a little unsure if this was really her.

" Hello Alexandra, I see that you remember me, or at least... the other part of you does," River said smiling, " There's a whole set that goes to that necklace, would you like me to show you?"

She showed me a set of two rings, earrings, some bracelets and other necklaces that obviously matched the choker I had been looking at earlier. I immediately fell in love with what she showed me and bought it on the spot along with some boots, a lace scarf and some makeup. River was waiting for me at the entrance; she was smiling widely and patted my shoulder.

"So... I'm assuming that you're not here by yourself correct?" River said.

I nodded, "Yeah, I'm here with Amy and she's probably looking for me actually, I came in here while she was getting us some lunch. Why don't you come and finish shopping with us?"

River shook her head, "I don't think that's a good idea. Why don't you just go back to Amy but don't tell her that you saw me. Ok?"

Though a bit baffled about why she wouldn't want me to tell Amy where she had been I agreed not to tell her and River seemed to just disappear. I made my way back over to Amy who had bought us some burgers, fries and drinks, she smiled seeing me.

"I figured that you went off to do some shopping by yourself. Come on sit and eat before your food gets cold." she said motioning to the chair across from her, I noticed that our mountains of shopping bags were missing.

"Where'd all our bags go?" I asked as I sat and took the first bite out of my burger which was rather good.

"Oh Rory and the Doctor took them back to the TARDIS... I think that they're having some sort of man day or something." Amy said shrugging her shoulders.

I laughed, "A man day? Wow... and they say that we act like girls!"

We laughed together, it felt good to laugh... it felt normal, to just laugh and tease the men in our lives, and we finished eating laughing and playing around some more.

"Well... are we done for today?" Amy asked, "I mean we do have a ton of clothes for you to wear and everything."

"Can I go into a bookstore first? I'd like to just look around and maybe get some books." I said and Amy shrugged.

"Sure whatever floats your boat I suppose?" She smiled and handed me 50 pound note, "I'll be in Victoria's Secret."

I nodded and wandered off towards a bookstore, once I stepped inside I was in heaven, I loved the smell of books. I grabbed a basket and started to put tons of different books in it, I was about to check out and who do I see leaning against a bookshelf leafing through a WW2 history book? It was River Song. She seemed to chuckling to herself and I bought my books, barely able to lift the bags and walked over to her.

"River what are you doing?" I was truly wondering why she was in the bookstore.

"Oh no reason really... just looking through some old memories is all," She set the book she had been reading through back on the shelf; "The real question is what are YOU doing here?"

"Just getting some weapons," I smiled sure she wouldn't understand what I was talking about.

I was rewarded with a confused look, "Books?"

"Yea! Best weapon in the world, arm yourself with knowledge!"

She smiled and laughed, "You sound just like him."

Now it was my turn to be confused, "Like who River?"

" That's besides the point right now, anyway, I have a gift for you," She dug around in her side satchel, pulling out on that looked just like it, I could hear different things clinking around inside, she reached over slinging it across my chest. Then she pulled something out from inside she magically bag that seemed to be bigger on the inside, it was a leather bound book. It was TARDIS blue and the pattern on the front and back cover made it look like it was the TARDIS doors.

"Write down everything you and him do together, everything, understand? It just might save your life," I took the book from her as she had an almost grim look on her face.

"Save my life? How?" I asked but she hustled me out of the store, I slid the blue book into the satchel she had given me and started a quick jog to find Amy.

Right after she had rushed me out of the bookstore she murmured something else out that I couldn't hear, "Be careful Alexandra... that book might just kill you."

Before I could turn to wave goodbye to River she was gone and Amy came up behind me.

"Bloody hell! How many books did you buy?!" she said in mock surprise and took one of the bags from my hands.

"Thanks... ugh... just enough to keep me entertained is all." I said as we walked back to the TARDIS.

"Well... ok then Alexandra," Amy shrugged.

Walking into the TARDIS I didn't expect the sort of reaction I got, the Doctor saw me and his mouth hung agape and a blush crept into my cheeks. I looked down at my feet embarrassed and Amy took that moment to tease the Doctor.

"Close your mouth! You'll catch flies!" she laughed and herded me to my room as I could call it now.

I was so tired and still blushing that as soon as I changed into PJs I was out like a light, that night... I dreamed of the Doctor.
