Hearts beating fast, a tall man, with dark, curly hair, ran towards a blue police box, a long, multi-coloured scarf trailing from his neck. This was no human…No, he was a Time Lord, known only as "The Doctor".

Behind him, a Time Lady followed.

"Hurry, Romana, into the TARDIS!" The Doctor called, not even looking over his shoulder until he heard the TARDIS door shut behind him. Wasting no time, he dematerialised the time machine just as loud explosions signified the destruction of the planet they had just been on.

The Doctor was silent…but his face was a mask of anger, sadness, fear and regret all in one.

"Where have you set the co-ordinates for?" Romana asked.

The Doctor's teeth were clenched as he replied. "I don't know…and I don't care!" he cried. "I'm dark inside…All is pain in my mind and hearts…Such regret…such…I…I…" he staggered back against the wall and slid down it. He looked up at Romana and his eyes welled with tears. The Doctor never cried…at least Romana had never seen him cry. "I failed them all…" he shuddered, "Those innocent aliens…children…all slaughtered…"

"It's a regrettable situation." Romana agreed, "Yes, I wish we could have saved them."

The Doctor took a bag of jelly babies out of his coat pocket. They were his favourite sweet. But not even they could bring that usual toothy smile to his face. Instead, he clenched the bag until all the jelly babies were squashed together before hurling the bag across the room. "AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHH!" he cried out, "Useless…! That's all I was on that planet, useless!"

Romana didn't like to see him like this. He was The Doctor…usually confident, witty, if not a trifle childish at times, but this was the opposite. He was an emotional mess and, for the first time, Romana felt her hearts breaking for him. He was a genuinely caring being, always ready to help humans and peaceful aliens in trouble. He was often sticking his nose in and usually ended up saving the day…but not always.

She had been reluctant to admit it but Romana had developed feelings for the Doctor. They had been travelling together for some time….they were both Time Lords and, after all…as annoying and odd as he may be, how could she not love him? He was so different to the other Time Lords. "The Black Sheep" she had heard some whisper…But, to Romana, it had come to seem that he was the one white sheep in a herd of black sheep, a torch in the darkness. He developed bonds and friendships; he carried earth sweets in his pocket and would often offer them to any new person or creature he met…He was interesting and he felt the loss of innocent lives deeply.

Romana sat down beside the Doctor and put a hand on his shoulder. She expected him to either do nothing or flick her hand away. But, instead…he leaned against her, burying his head in her neck. "I'm scared…" he sobbed, "So scared…why…why am I so scared…? What's wrong with me…?"

When they had first started travelling together, Romana would have to told him to get off and stop being so stupid. Now…now, she put an arm around him and without thinking…kissed him on the head. She gasped, worried about what he might do.

The Doctor looked up, his eyes and cheeks wet. "Do you…" he stammered, "D-do you…love…me…Romana?"

Romana smiled and nodded. "Do you love me?" she asked.

The Doctor cupped his face in her hands. There was still sadness and regret on his face but it was as though hearing Romana's words had lifted his spirits, even if only a little. "I love you with every beat of both my hearts." He whispered…and then they kissed.

The Doctor felt as if all his troubles were melting away with that kiss. He didn't notice one of his hands venturing down to land on one of Romana's breasts. He felt her flinch and he withdrew his hand. "No…" she whispered to him, "Put it back…"

So he did.

"I want…" Romana said, taking the Doctor's hand in hers, "I want you to…I want us to…"

"I'll make love to you right here…" the Doctor replied, "Unless you prefer a bed?"

Romana shook her head, "No…Here is fine."

Clothes littered the control room floor. As the two became more and more aroused by each other, they began to feel like nothing else mattered…nothing at all.

"You appear to be at full mast…" Romana said with a giggle the Doctor had never heard before.

"Appears so…" the Doctor replied, "Shall we begin intercourse now…or shall we savour it? It is our first time after all."

"I don't want this to end…" Romana groaned as the Doctor began to stroke her entrance with his fingers, "I…oooohhhh…."

The Doctor began to reach down with his other hand.

"Let me return the favour…" Romana said, still groaning from the pleasure the Doctor was clearly giving her until she shuddered from her orgasm. They changed positions and were soon half-sitting, half-laying side by side against the wall. The Doctor laid his head back against Romana's shoulder. "I'm sorry I've been so…" he began.

"Hush…" Romana soothed, stroking his curly hair, "Don't think about that now, my love."

The Doctor let out a soft moan as Romana's hand closed around his penis. He felt her gentle fist begin to stroke it up and down. It felt amazing! "Ah…!" he gasped, "That feels…"

"Good?" Romana guessed, "I'm glad…You made me feel good, Doctor, better than I could ever have imagined."

"Ah…w-well…" the Doctor was finding it hard to speak for the pleasure, "I…I'm pleased to…to…"

He couldn't speak anymore. He didn't mean for it to happen but as Romana's hand continued to caress his penis, fantasies began to enter the Doctor's mind…and his mind was vivid. He could almost imagine what it was like to be inside Romana. He moaned again and let more visions fill him. Romana let go. "I hear some people like their male partners to finish onto them…" she said, her eyes gleaming.

"Then I shall…take it from here…" The Doctor replied, positioning himself so that he was straddled over Romana. Soon, he was stroking his penis with his own hand. The tip was pointed at the area between Romana's breasts. Seeing the breasts properly made the Doctor more aroused which made him masturbate a little faster. As he continued to self pleasure, Romana pulled down so she could stroke his cheek and hair. "You mean so much…everything to me, you goofy Time Lord." She giggled. That giggle…it was so new from her but the Doctor loved it.

He began to feel like he was about to reach his climax. "Romana…" he gasped and moaned into her neck, "I think…I think I'm about to…I…I'm gonna…AHHH!" The Doctor suddenly threw his head back in a breathy yell and ejaculated onto Romana'a breasts. He moaned with pleasure as his penis shot out more semen. He gasped for a few moments but neither found they could wait around and they got to work hardening him up again. Soon he was inside Romana at last. As he thrusted deep inside her, the Doctor, once again, had his head buried in her neck. "I love you…" he moaned, "I've loved you… for so long…Romana…"

"Me…too…" was all Romana seemed to be able to say.

The Doctor shuddered and let out a moan of immense pleasure as he finally ejaculated deep inside Romana and was rewarded with a pleasured outcry from her. Soon they separated and returned some of their clothing. And the Doctor, once again found himself resting against Romana's shoulder, his two hearts still pounding. "Romana…" he breathed, "Thank you…I…I needed that."

Romana gave him another kiss. "I think we both needed that…My Time Lord."

The End.
