A/N:
Sorry I'm a day late in posting a new chapter!! I got reallllyyyy distracted, plus there's school and you know how it goes. Also, so you're not confused, every time you see "---" it's like a new part or section or idea of the story. And I'm sorry if this chapter seems rushed!! Carry on.

"Doctor, must you act so childish?" Anne-Marie scolded lightly as he spun around, trying to detangle himself from the cables. The Doctor grinned at her.

"Yes." Connor laughed and Anne-Marie laughed with him. "Now I just have to plug this here.." The Doctor murmured, sticking the cable to the monitor in the Tardis before running back out into space where the satellite sat. The Doctor attached the other cable to the satellite.

"Would you like me to widen the air pocket?" Anne-Marie asked form the Tardis console.

"Nope! I've.. Got it!" The Doctor said triumphantly as the monitor roared to life. "We are now on live on ever television set, radio and every other doodad device down in Planet Daylight. Anne-Marie laughed as he stood in front of the monitor smiling at her.

"Then maybe you should explain to them what you're doing."

"Right!" The Doctor exclaimed. "Hello Planet Daylight!" The Doctor exclaimed, waving. "We have some big news! The sun, is cured! You had something crippling it but you're fine now! You can go out in the Daylight." The Doctor smiled. "Now I know you're scared. You've been scared for a very long time but have a little faith. Step outside. Feel the sunshine!" He cried out. "It'll do you some good." The Doctor switched off the monitor.

"Is that it?" She asked as she watched him began to unhook the cables. "They're still going to be scared. Maybe they'll never go outside."

"They're human! They'll get over it. Besides, it's much easier to get work done during the daytime then at night. They'll see that." The Doctor continued to smile.

"If you say so Doctor." Anne-Marie said with a shrug. Glancing down at Connor she noticed that he was still writing in his notebook in the language of Planet Daylight. She smiled, maybe he'll keep that up.

The Doctor dropped Anne-Marie and Connor back at their home down on Earth. Anne-Marie knew in her heart that this would be the last time he would do this. Soon, the Doctor would know everything and then he would take them away.

"Doctor." Anne-Marie said tentatively as they watched Connor run around in the grass outside the front of the house.

"Yes?" He asked looking over at her.

"It's going to happen soon." The Doctor stiffened and turned to face her completely. Her expression was solemn. "They're going to take Connor. They're going to take our son." There it was. It was out. Anne-Marie confirmed it. Connor was just as much her son as he was his. "And I'm going to be angry at you. I'm going to be so angry." Anne-Marie emphasized. "But you have to tell me it's going to be alright because you know, that everything is fine." Anne-Marie glances back at Connor before looking at the Doctor.

"Now, it's our wedding day." Anne-Marie continued, brushing back a strand of her hair. "And I think you've left someone waiting." The Doctor grinned and Leander down, kissing her softly.

"I'll see you there." He said slowly.

"Goodbye, my Doctor." Anne-Marie said softly, pushing him towards his beloved Tardis.

"Is daddy going again!" Connor whined, rushing over.

"Yes honey. Come here." Anne-Marie said, opening her arms and bending down a bit. Sulkily, Connor let his mother pick him up. "Say bye bye now." But Connor crossed his arms grumpily.
