' You told me to look for the red teacup , but its not there ' Donna admitted to the Doctor , who was laying on the couch in the TARDIS living room , watching a documentary. He looked up at the sound of Donna's voice.
' It has to be there , its my favourite teacup . I can't have my tea in another cup , it just feels wrong'. He glanced at the teacup in Donna's hands , smelling the aroma of mint tea.. ' oh , NOT THE BLACK ONE! That black one doesn't look cheerful . Are you sure the red one isn't on the shelf ? ' Donna nodded , and he leapt up from the couch , Donna following him to the kitchen , him opening and slamming shut cupboard doors , and moving aside teacups on the shelf on the wall, trying to find his cup, to no avail. He sighed.
' My cup !' he wailed.
' Its just a cup Doctor' The Doctor peered at Donna with sad eyes.
' That cup .. Rose gave it to me. Now its gone, not sure where ' as Donna hugged him . She stifled a smile, she had just noticed something , mentally kicking herself and the Doctor for not checking there. She let go off the Doctor , and made her way over to the sink . She held up the lost red tea cup.
' My cup , it was in the sink all this time ?' Donna nodded .
' I wont have to drink my tea out of that black cup ? ' He enquired.
' No Doctor , you don't '
' Brilliant. Molto Bene' as he brewed some more mint tea, glad he found his favourite red tea cup.
