The Doctor winced as he felt Amy's incessant lips back on his, her hands wandering over his chest, pressing him back up against the TARDIS doors. He grabbed onto her shoulders, attempting to push her away, but only half-heartedly, not wanting to actually hurt the human girl. His friend who was now snogging him right outside the TARDIS where his—
Suddenly, the doors behind him flew open and he and Amy were falling into the TARDIS, landing in a heap in the doorway. The Doctor groaned as he rubbed at his left arm, which had taken the brunt of the fall. Glancing upwards, he found Katy looming above them, arms crossed over her chest, her face contorted in a scowl. Both his hearts thumped a little harder in his chest at seeing the bitterness written all over her face.
"Not interrupting, am I?" Katy muttered as the Doctor jumped up onto his feet, glancing between the two women.
"Ah, that wasn't...she was...it's not what you think..." The Doctor stuttered, with flushed cheeks.
"Look, you're free to make out without whoever the hell you want to, alright? It's none of my damn business. But you! What about Rory? Your fiancé, remember him?" Katy accused, pointing toward Amy who had pushed herself up onto her knees.
"I was just...looking for a little comfort. That's all" Amy pouted, as Katy gave her a look of disbelief.
"Then put on a bloody movie or buy some flashy clothes, don't kiss another man!" Katy exclaimed.
She wasn't sure who she was more pissed at. Amy for kissing another man and not seeming even a little sorry for it, or the Doctor for not pushing her away. Biting down the anger welling in her chest, she chided herself for getting attached to the idea that she could be special...different to the Doctor. They were all just companions to him.
"I'm scared, okay? This is...this is big. The biggest thing I've ever done. Tomorrow I'm supposed to walk down the aisle with Rory and—" Amy began, when Katy cut her off with a wave of her hands.
"Tomorrow? As in this is the freaking night before your wedding? Oh my God, this just gets better and better" Katy huffed, turning her back on the pair.
She could hear the TARDIS humming behind her, as if in agreement with her words. The machine was the one who had brought the kiss to her attention after all. She didn't appear to approve of their encounter either.
"I guess I wanted to have a reason to call off the wedding...before something else goes wrong. Rory realises he's making a terrible mistake. Martians invade the planet. I just don't see how I'm going to get something so...perfect" Amy explained, as Katy's gaze softened somewhat.
"That's my point, Amy. Look, don't throw away all you've got for him—" Katy stated, gesturing over to an offended Doctor.
"Oi!" The Doctor complained, fiddling with his bowtie that had been pulled out of place.
"Just stating the facts, Doc" Katy smirked at him.
"And it's not like you haven't been giving me mixed signals" Amy continued, walking over to lounge against the TARDIS console.
"Mixed signals? How?" The Doctor huffed.
"Oh, come on. You turn up in the middle of the night, you get me out of my bed in my nightie, which you then don't let me change out of for ages, and take me for a spin in your time machine. No, no, you're right. No mixed signals there. That is just a signal. Like a great big bat signal in the sky. Get your coat, love. The Doctor is in" Amy continued, as the Doctor gave her an incredulous look.
"No. No, no. I'm not like that" The Doctor insisted.
"In all fairness, you have been flirting with me ever since I stepped through those doors" Katy pointed out.
"Well, that's different" The Doctor grumbled, fiddling with some buttons on the console.
"What makes her different then? Face it, Doctor. We're your eye candy, that's why we're here" Amy scoffed.
"That is not why you're here" The Doctor shook his head, as Amy pushed herself in between him and the console, wanting an answer.
"Then why am I here?" Amy pushed.
"Because...because I can't see it any more" The Doctor sighed, turning around to slump down to on the seat behind him.
"After a while, you just can't see it. I look at a star and it's just a big ball of burning gas. And I know how it began and I know how it ends, and I was probably there both times. Now, after a while, everything is just stuff. That's the problem. You make all of space and time your backyard and what do you have? A backyard. But you, you can see it. And when you see it, l see it" The Doctor explained, as Katy's forehead wrinkled.
"So, you're saying...Amy's like your kid? You're rediscovering the world, just like parents do with their kids when they see things for the first time?" Katy questioned, as the Doctor clicked his fingers.
"Exactly!" He exclaimed.
"Ugh, that's just gross" Amy complained, turning a green colour.
"Wait, so why did you bring her along then?" Amy asked, gesturing over to Katy.
"I wanted to save her" The Doctor murmured, in a soft tone.
They both knew he wasn't talking about the Judoon. The Doctor had seen something in her the first day they met, something good. He wanted to give her a chance. And did she ever use it, as far as he was concerned.
"If I remember correctly, I'm the one who keeps saving your arse" Katy teased, making the Doctor grin.
"Seems like I made a good choice inviting you along then, eh?" The Doctor replied, as her lips twitched into a smile.
She cursed inwardly, annoyed at how easy it felt to forgive the Doctor for...what exactly? As she had said, he could kiss as many of his companions as he wanted, even if they both knew it was a terrible idea.
"Don't think you can just look at me with those big eyes and I'll forget about what I saw, Doc. Rory's supposed to be your friend too, remember?" Katy went on, quirking an eyebrow.
"Right. Time to find Rory" The Doctor nodded.
"He's at a stag night" Amy mumbled, waving her hand, dismissively.
"Well, then. Let's make it a great one" The Doctor suggested, flipping a lever on the console, sending them toward their destination.
Having changed into slightly warmer clothes, Amy sat on the console seat, twiddling her thumbs together, clearly nervous. The Doctor had parked them only a few blocks away from the pub Rory was having his stag night in, and she would soon be forced to look her fiancé in the eyes and tell him what she had done. How she might have ruined everything.
"You guys will be alright," Katy told her, from where she was leaning against the console.
"Rory forgives a lot but...this?" Amy sighed, dropping her face into her hands.
"He loves you. A lot. I think he'd forgive you for pretty much anything" Katy insisted, thinking about how lucky Amy was.
"Right, time to go...Amy, you should probably stay in the TARDIS. Katy and I will sort this all out" The Doctor exclaimed.
"We will?" Katy frowned, not sure how he was planning to do that.
"I've got a plan" The Doctor grinned, grabbing her hand and pulling her toward the TARDIS doors.
"That doesn't exactly fill me with confidence" Katy snorted, as they exited into the cold night air.
A moment later, the Doctor was slamming the doors shut, his expression growing serious. Katy was almost startled when he took a step closer to her, as their eyes connected. What he wanted to say next, he didn't think would be smart to say in front of his human friend.
"I didn't kiss her. Well, I suppose...I didn't kiss her back. That's the point I'm trying very badly to make" The Doctor stuttered over his words, as Katy simply shrugged.
"Doctor, I really don't care—" Katy started, when the Doctor reached out to clasp her wrist to stop her from walking away.
"I wouldn't" He insisted, his gaze growing intense.
"Look, you kissed me to save my life. I get it. I'm not about to get all jealous or whatever. You don't need to worry" Katy continued.
"I pushed Amy away. It didn't mean anything" The Doctor told her, watching as Katy's eyes narrowed.
"Wait, you tried to push her away? And she didn't let up?" Katy frowned.
"Well, I suppose I didn't say no exactly but..." The Doctor trailed off, as Katy pursed her lips before throwing the TARDIS doors open.
It took the Doctor a few seconds to recognise the look on Katy's face. She was on the warpath, and they never ended well for whoever was in her way. Rushing into his machine, he stayed close on her heels as she stormed over to an unsuspecting Amy.
"Can I hit you?" Katy exclaimed, as Amy gave her a look of disbelief.
"What? No" Amy huffed, as Katy came to stand just inches in front of her, anger burning behind her eyes.
"And that right there is asking for consent. You do know what that is, right?" Katy spat out, as Amy's eyes widened, realising the reason for Katy's sudden outburst.
The Doctor was a good man; maybe a little too good. He wouldn't pull Amy up for her shitty behaviour, but Katy didn't have to do the same. She would be reacting exactly the same if the situation was reversed.
Before Amy could try to defend herself, Katy grabbed the collar of her jacket, dragging her forward. Amy shrank away from the older girl, scared for a moment of what Katy might do to her. In the blink of an eye, the Doctor had raced forward, hovering over Katy's shoulder.
"I like you, Amy. Really, I do. But if you ever try to force yourself on him or anyone else again, I'll throw you out of this time machine myself. Got that?" Katy muttered as Amy nodded, quickly.
"Understood" She replied, in a small voice.
"Great. Let's go save your marriage then" Katy announced, turning on her heel and heading toward the doors.
"She can be kind of terrifying, huh?" Amy gulped, eyes flickering over to the Doctor, who didn't seem to share her emotion.
"Yeah" The Doctor mumbled, trying to hide the smile that threatened to cross his lips.
Katy made her way through the crowded pub, narrowly missing a pint of lager being thrown over her shirt by a man who looked like he was already half drunk. Jumping up onto her tiptoes she looked through the crowd for Rory, realising all the men seemed to be wearing the same red shirts, with Rory and Amy's face on the front, in the shape of a heart.
"Reminder to self, never get married" Katy snorted, finally spotting Rory on the phone near the bar.
"The reason for this call is because I haven't told you for seven hours that I love you, which is a scandal, and even if we weren't getting married tomorrow, I'd ask you to marry me anyway!" Rory shouted into his mobile, with a large grin.
Katy cringed at his words, knowing how hopelessly in love Rory was with Amy. How would he react to finding out his fiancé had kissed another man? Hopefully better than Katy would react herself. Slipping through the tipsy men, Katy reached up to tap Rory's shoulder as the man twisted around, his jaw dropping open when he saw her standing there.
"...I'm guessing we have met before then?" Katy exclaimed, confused by her own timeline.
"You! What are you...why are you...Oh, God, he's not here too, is he?" Rory gaped, as Katy gave him a sympathetic look.
"We need to talk!" Katy stated, raising her voice to be heard over the music.
"We, what?" Rory frowned, straining to hear her.
"We need to talk! It's about Amy!" Katy repeated, as Rory shook his head.
"I still can't...oh blimey..." He trailed off, as a large pink cake was wheeled out behind them, and stripper music began to play.
Of all the things Katy expected to happen next, it wasn't for the Doctor to burst out of the cake, instead of a stripper. The pub became deathly silent as the Doctor scanned around his surroundings, his gaze finally landing on Katy and Rory.
"Rory! That's a relief. I thought I'd burst out of the wrong cake. Again. That reminds me, there's a girl outside in a bikini. Could someone let her in, give her a jumper? Lucy. Lovely girl" The Doctor ranted, as Katy stormed forward.
"I thought I told you to wait outside, I had this handled!" Katy hissed, as the Doctor gave a slight shrug.
"Now, then. Rory. We need to talk about your fiancé. She tried to kiss me" The Doctor announced, as Katy facepalmed.
"Subtlety, Doctor. Do you even know what that is?" Katy groaned, as she heard someone drop their beer glass to the floor.
"Funny how you can say something in your head, and it sounds fine..." The Doctor trailed off, noticing all the angry looks sent his way.
"How did that sound alright in your head?!" Katy complained, as the Doctor grabbed the edge of the cake and jumped out, almost tripping over his own feet.
"I'm nine hundred and seven, earth customs can get a little lost on me sometimes" The Doctor muttered.
"Oh, like that's an...nine hundred and seven? Seriously?" Katy gaped, before realising where they were still.
"Where's Amy?" Rory asked, in a sullen tone, looking like a kicked puppy.
Katy sat on the console seat, eyes darting in between Amy and Rory who were standing on either end of the room. There hadn't been any shouting or even arguing, and somehow that made everything so much worse. It was like Rory just decided to...accept it. Which in turn made Amy feel even more guilty. And the Doctor...
"Doctor, will you stop hiding down there? I can't take the awkwardness much longer" Katy complained, leaning down to look at the Doctor through the glass floor.
He had rushed down the stairs the moment they got back to the TARDIS, insisting he needed to upgrade the couplings. Something which sounded like bullshit to Katy. The Doctor would always do his best to avoid an awkward situation if he could.
"Oh! The life out there, it dazzles. I mean, it blinds you to the things that are important. I've seen it devour relationships and plans" The Doctor explained, from where was strapped into a harness underneath the glass floor, messing around with the underside of the console.
"Because for one person to have seen all that, to taste the glory and then go back, it will tear you apart. So...I'm sending you somewhere. Together" The Doctor announced.
"Whoa! What, like a date?" Amy inquired.
"Anywhere you want, any time you want. One condition - it has to be amazing. The Moulin Rouge in 1890! The first Olympic Games! Think of it as a wedding present, because, frankly, it's either this or tokens. It's a lot to take in, isn't it? Tiny box, huge room inside. What's that about? Let me explain" The Doctor ranted, rushing up the stairs toward Rory.
"It's another dimension" Rory stated.
"It's basically another dimen...what?" The Doctor frowned.
"After Prisoner Zero, I've been reading up on all the latest scientific theories; FTL travel, parallel universes" Rory explained, as the Doctor stormed toward him, an unreadable expression on his face.
"I like the bit when someone says, "It's bigger on the inside!" I always look forward to that" The Doctor pouted, as Katy patted him on the shoulder.
"Aw, does someone not like being shown up?" Katy teased, as the Doctor rolled his eyes.
"So, this date. I'm kind of done with running down corridors. What do you think, Rory?" Amy suggested.
"How about somewhere...romantic?" The Doctor grinned, before setting them in motion toward a destination.
In record time, the Doctor was causing the TARDIS to materialise, rushing toward the doors, as the sun shone through. Katy stayed to the back of the group, ushering Rory through the doors when he looked apprehensive to step outside. Katy's own eyes widened as she took in the impressive buildings that surrounded them and the canal that lay only a few metres away, dozens of gondolas in sight. They appeared to be in the middle of some sort of marketplace, as women and men dressed up in clothes from at least five centuries ago smiled at them as they passed.
"Venice! Venezia! La Serenissima! Impossible city. Preposterous city! Founded by refugees running from Attila the Hun. It was just a collection of little wooden huts in the marsh, but became one of the most powerful cities in the world. Constantly being invaded, constantly flooding...just beautiful! Oh, you gotta love Venice" The Doctor grinned, noticing out of the corner of his eye how Katy and Rory had the same look of awe on their faces.
"We're...in the past" Katy gaped, as the Doctor put two and two together.
"Oh. Oh! This is your first time! Ha! Oh, brilliant" The Doctor exclaimed, cupping her face for a moment, as if he was trying to memorise the look of amazement.
"What year is it?" Katy murmured, in a daze.
"Let's see...1580. Roughly. That's all right. Casanova doesn't get born for 145 years. Don't want to run into him. I owe him a chicken" The Doctor stated, before racing off when he noticed a man dressed up in fancy clothes turning a group of men away.
"So, pretty crazy, right?" Katy snorted, nudging Rory with her elbow, as he closed his gaping mouth.
"I haven't just hit my head, and this is all some mad dream then?" Rory questioned.
"Nope" Katy smiled, gesturing for them to follow the Doctor and Amy.
"Be honest with me...was it really just a kiss between those two? Nothing else happened?" Rory blurted out.
"Nothing else, I swear" Katy replied.
"Right. Good. That's good" Rory sighed.
"Do you think I should forgive her?" Rory asked, as Katy grimaced.
"It's not really my place, Rory" Katy pointed out.
"You said last time that we're friends in the future. Friends tell each other what to do" Rory explained.
"I think that...Amy was scared. And she made a mistake" Katy shrugged.
"So I should forgive her" Rory nodded, thinking he had her answer.
"Well, if she was my girlfriend, I'd probably deck her and then dump her arse...but then again, I have a lot of anger management issues" Katy murmured, as Rory ran a hand over his face.
"Come on you two! There's trouble!" The Doctor called them over, waving his hands around madly.
"We've been here two minutes; how could he have already found trouble?" Katy huffed.
After witnessing a man desperately trying to take his daughter away from a school, that appeared far too much like a cult for Katy's liking, she and the Doctor snuck away to chase after the pleading father. Amy and Rory needed some time to themselves after all if the Doctor's 'date' idea was ever going to work.
"Why Venice?" Katy queried, as they wandered through the narrow streets.
"I told you, I wanted to take us somewhere romantic" The Doctor shrugged, as she raised an eyebrow.
"Rory and Amy, you mean" Katy corrected.
"Yeah, like I said" The Doctor mumbled, his eyes cast to the stone beneath their feet.
"...Sorry if I went a little overboard back in the TARDIS with Amy. I wouldn't have actually done anything you know" Katy announced, as the Doctor gave her a small smile.
"I do" He nodded.
"All those years I spent on Earth, thinking I was crazy, that all my memories were a lie...I never thought I'd find myself in 1580. And much less with a Time Lord" Katy huffed.
"Not so bad, is it?" The Doctor smirked, as she shared his expression.
"It's bloody amazing. I mean, we're basically walking through history. I don't think I'll ever get used to this" Katy grinned, as the Doctor gave her a fond look.
"Maybe after a few years" The Doctor suggested.
"I hope Rory and Amy will work it out. I mean, I guess I know they will but still...I'm actually worried about them. It's weird, having these friends now that I...Doctor?" Katy frowned, realising he was no longer standing by her side.
She soon found him handing some coins to a young girl, who passed him a handful of colourful flowers, a beaming smile on her own face, the Doctor clearly having taken her fancy. The Time Lord then twisted around to jog back over to Katy, who was taken aback when he raised his hand out for her to take the flowers.
"For me?" Katy asked, in a confused tone.
"They won't bite" The Doctor said, in a teasing tone, as she reluctantly took the flowers from his hands.
It was an oddly sweet gesture, one that Katy certainly wasn't used to. Least of all from the Time Lord in front of her. Despite herself, a smile soon found its way onto her lips as she placed the small bunch into her shirt pocket, the petals peeking out of the side. It was gestures like that which confused Katy at times. One moment she thought she was starting to understand her relationship with the Doctor and the next...
Just as she opened her mouth to thank him, they saw the father they had been searching for storming past them. She nudged the Doctor with her arm, pointing toward the older man, whose face was full of fury.
"Who were those girls?" The Doctor called after him.
"I thought everyone knew about the Calvierri school" The man retorted.
"Our first day here. Parents do all sorts of things to get their children into good schools. They move house, they change religion. So, why are you trying to get her out?" The Doctor insisted, in a hushed tone.
"Something happens in there. Something magical, something evil. My own daughter didn't recognise me. And the girl who pushed me away, her face...like an animal" The man told them.
"Don't worry, we can help. This kind of thing...it's what we do best" Katy tried to reassure the panicked man.
"I think it's time I met this Signora Calvierri, don't you...?" The Doctor questioned, wanting his name.
"Guido, Signor. And yourself?" The father inquired.
"You can call me the Doctor" He grinned.
"Got to say, I'm not loving this plan" Katy hissed, as she sidestepped alongside the edge of the canal.
They had decided to use Guido as a distraction whilst the Doctor and Katy snuck into the mysterious school, meaning they were having to use a side gate, tiptoeing over the narrow edge of the building. The Doctor reached for his sonic screwdriver and opened the lock on the gate, slipping inside, holding his hands out for Katy to take as she jumped through the gates beside him. Still holding onto her hand, he pulled her further into the dark building and down a long staircase. At the bottom was a room surrounded by half a dozen wooden doors, only lit by a few candles dotted around.
"Hello, handsome" The Doctor smirked, spotting his reflection in a mirror on the wall.
"Careful, your head might grow so big we can't get back out the gate" Katy teased, when she heard a shuffling sound behind her.
Spinning around, she gasped when she found they were suddenly surrounded by five young women, all dressed in white gowns. They had a strange look in their eyes...something that didn't strike her as a human emotion.
"Who are you?" The girls asked in unison.
The Doctor looked toward the creepy girls and then back to the mirror, realising for some reason they didn't seem to have a reflection. He repeated this motion a few times before deciding his eyes weren't deceiving him.
"How are you doing that? I...am...loving it. You're like Houdini, only five scary girls, only he was shorter. Will be shorter. I'm rambling" The Doctor murmured.
"You think?" Katy scoffed, stepping closer toward the staircase.
"I'll ask you again, signor. Who are you?" The girls questioned, as Katy reached out to grab the back of the Doctor's jacket.
"No one. In fact, we were actually just leaving..." Katy trailed off.
"Pale, creepy girls who don't like sunlight and can't be seen in...am I thinking what I think I'm thinking?" The Doctor exclaimed, excitedly.
"Leave now, signor, or we shall call for the steward...if you are lucky" The girls warned, before baring their fangs and advancing on the pair.
"Doctor, I think this is the time we're supposed to run away" Katy hissed, backing up to the staircase.
"Tell me the whole plan!" The Doctor insisted, as the girls simply crept closer.
"One day that'll work" The Doctor huffed, as Katy suddenly reached out to grab him by the collar, all but dragging him up the stairs.
"Listen, I would love to stay here. This whole thing...I'm thrilled. Oh, this is Christmas!" The Doctor choked out, before allowing Katy to pull him away.
"Come on!" Katy cried, shaking her head, in disbelief.
Sometimes she really thought the real reason the Doctor brought his companions along was to save him from himself.
Later that evening, once the sun had set and they had retreated to Guido's home, the group desperately tried to find a way into the school, looking over whatever maps they had. Katy sat at the table, rubbing at her aching temples, still feeling drained from her encounter with the Weeping Angels. Her headache had started to come back in full force, the drumming in her head causing her to scrunch her eyes shut. She hoped it would go away soon.
"As you saw, there's no clear way in. The House of Calvierri is like a fortress. But there's a tunnel underneath it, with a ladder and shaft that leads up into the house. I tried to get in once myself, but I hit a trapdoor" Guido told them.
"You need someone on the inside" Amy suggested, as the Doctor instantly shook his head.
"No" He retorted.
"You don't even know what I was going to say!" Amy argued.
"We pretend you're an applicant for the school to get you inside and tonight you come down and open the trapdoor to let us in?" The Doctor guessed, as Amy pursed her lips.
"Oh. So you know what I was going to say..." Amy trailed off, with stooped shoulders.
"Are you insane?" Rory gaped at his fiancé.
"I think everyone in this room is a little insane, Rory. We're talking about hunting vampires" Katy scoffed.
"We don't have another option!" Amy pointed out.
"Actually, we do. Me. I can go. Send me in with a stake of whatever, and I'll get his daughter out" Katy suggested, as the Doctor gave her a look.
"Our deal. Two weeks. You're still here" The Doctor reminded her.
"Oh, come on! That was about me being a martyr, this...this is just logical thinking!" Katy cried, as the Doctor crossed his arms.
"He said no, Katy. Listen to him" Rory mumbled.
Katy had almost died the day prior, and there was no chance the Doctor was about to let her put herself in danger again so quickly. But where did that leave him?
"There is another option" Guido announced, before pointing to a confused Rory.
"I work at the Arsenale. We build the warships for the navy" Guido explained, as the Doctor walked over to the barrels stacked behind Rory, giving them a sniff.
"Gunpowder. Most people just nick stationery from where they work" The Doctor accused, as Rory slowly backed away from the barrels, colliding with a dead rabbit hanging above a stove.
"Well, I for one like the idea!" Katy admitted.
"Look, I have a thing about guns and huge quantities of explosives" The Doctor stated, as Guido slammed his hands down on the table.
"What do you suggest, then? We wait until they turn her into an animal?" Guido complained, terrified for his daughter.
"I'll be there three, four hours tops" Amy announced, as the Doctor gave her a small smile for her persistence.
"No, no, no, no. It can't keep happening like this. This is how they go...but I have to know. We go together. Say you're my daughter" The Doctor suggested, sitting down on Guido's bed.
"What?! Don't listen to him!" Rory exclaimed.
"Your daughter? You look about nine" Amy scoffed.
"Brother, then" The Doctor shrugged, as Amy's lips twitched into a smirk.
"Too weird. Fiancé" Amy stated, as Katy shot her a glare.
"I'm already spoken for, and you are supposed to be making things right with you know who" The Doctor reminded her, gesturing toward Rory.
"What do you mean spoken for—" Katy began, when Amy cut her off.
"Wait, I mean, they've already seen the Doctor. You should do it, Rory. You can be my brother" Amy suggested, rubbing his hair with her hand.
"Oh my God" Katy sighed, dropping her face into her hands at Amy's behaviour.
"Why is him being your brother weird, but with me, it's OK?" Rory scoffed, crossing his arms.
"Actually, I thought he was her fiancé" Guido mumbled, gesturing between Katy and the Doctor.
"Yeah, that's not helping" The Doctor stated, looking away from Katy's gaze.
"You need to invest in some glasses, mate" Katy gaped, a light blush growing on her cheeks.
"This whole thing is mental! They're vampires, for God's sake!" Rory cried, throwing his hands up in the air.
"We hope" The Doctor muttered.
"So, if they're not vampires...?" Amy trailed off, curiously.
"Makes you wonder what could be so bad it doesn't actually mind us thinking it's a vampire?" The Doctor pointed out, making Katy wince.
"You know, you really need to work on your date ideas" Katy teased.
