Chapter five:
Three months had pasted, and I was sure that I had just imagined the whole thing. Walking out of my house, I pasted the "imaginary" crater in the ground where the "imaginary" Tardis and Doctor had landed. Trying my best not to look at it too long, I walked quickly to the bus stop. I was going job hunting today. Slowly eating into my little amount money, I paid the bus driver.
I had been using the money Jamie and Jeffrey gave me, and felt guilty.
Putting in an application at a coffee shop, I noticed the grocery store across the way.
"What the heck, why not dig myself further into debt?" I said as she walked into the grocery store, "Lets see.... What do I need..?" There wasn't much that I DIDN'T need.
Holding a gallon on milk in one hand and a carton of eggs in the other, I turned around straight into someone dropping my eggs everywhere.
"Oh! I am so sorry, I didn't look where I-"
"Whoops! Hang on, I'll pay for that-" the Doctor, froze and starred at me,
"Are you following me?" He asked in a serious voice but there was a smile on his face.
"N-No, I-I was just buying some groceries!" Hoping he'll believe me, "Then, then that wasn't just a.. a.. dream?"
"Well blimey I was only gone three minuets and you accuse me of not existing again!" he said sarcastically.
"You were gone for three months, Doctor," I said with a giggle.
"Something funny had been going on here... People keep calling me someone elses name wherever I go." He says with his frown. Glancing around I notice people were starting to recognize him. They must have thought he was the actor that played The Doctor; David Tenannt.
"David! David, tell me, why have you decided to go around town dressed like The Doctor today?"
"David, who is this girl you have with you? Friend? Sister? Or might it be your new lover?" I blush at the thought.
"Ah-h... Doctor, I think we should go..." And I grabbed his arm and wheeled him out of the grocery store. Outside wasn't much better; in fact, it was worse.
"David! It's David Tenannt everybody!"
"Oh, David!"
This time, it was The Doctor grabbing my arm and dragging me away. He pulled me into the Tardis which was behind the grocery store. Of course, I knew all about the Tardis, but still...
"It's bigger on the inside... It's bigger on the inside!" I give a girlish shriek and jump up and down. I felt silly, but, I was in the Tardis!
"Heard that before," he said with his back to me. He was fumbling around with some levers and buttons. "Now, WHAT was that? Who is this David Tenannt guy everyone is getting their panties in a knot about?"
I giggled. Apparently The Doctor wanted all the fame and not to share is with the actor that played him. "It might be easier if I just showed you, rather than explain."
Tardis parked in the middle of my living room, we sat on the couch while I fumbled around trying to find the remote.
"Burr! Why is it so cold in here?" Asked The Doctor while rubbing his arms.
"My heat has been turned off," I say laughing, (it's what I do when I get mad), "I expect my electricity will be next."
Chuckling to myself, I get up to grab my warmest jacket. It was really thin but I didn't have enough money to buy myself a warmer one.
Siting back down, and shaking from the cold, I reached without looking for the remote but instead, grabbed The Doctor's hand.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I was trying to grab the remote," I say trying to hide my embarrassment which was hard because all my blood went straight to my face.
"You're freezing, here," The Doctor shrugged off is tan trench coat and put it around me. It was so warm from his body still and smell amazing, like The Doctor.
Growing ever more embarrassed and red, I managed to say, "Thank you, Doctor." Realizing I was starring, I quickly moved my eyes to the tv and changed the subject.
"Well, this is Doctor Who. Umm... It's very popular not only in the UK but also in the US and Australia. It's a very long series if you count the first series. Right now, everyone is watching the new series. Uhh.. Yeah, well, I hope this isn't too weird for you to watch."
I turned on the last episode of the first season of the new series; Christopher was turning into David, nine to ten. The Doctor's, (the Doctor next to me), eye brows went up.
"Is that what it looks like from a different perspective? Huh. Well let me tell you this, it painful." The Doctor was taking this better than I had expected. The transformation from nine to ten was almost complete.
"Before I go I just wanna tell you, you were fantastic. But you know what? So was I! .... Hello, okay- mph- New teeth, that's weird... So where was I? Oh that's right, Bosalona!"
The episode ended. We were silent for a few minuets. Then he busted up laughing.
"Have you been spyig on me? That was a good one! That was probably the best prank yet! Tell me, was Jack in on this?"
"No Doctor, it's not a joke. This is a real tv show. I'm sorry," I said seriously. His smile faded to confusion.
"Well I- This couldn't- There must be a mistake-" He started pacing the room again. He ran into the Tardis and started typing things into his computer thingy that hung from the ceiling. I followed him in and said, "Maybe... Maybe you accidentally put the wrong destination in?" Instead of answering, he pulled out his sonic screw driver and ran it up and down my body. He did the same thing to my tv and the air outside. "Everything is normal though... I don't understand! I have to go do something. I'll be right back okay? I need to see something for myself." He ran back into the Tardis and started to time travel.
"Well, I must be insane." I said as I sunk back down on to the couch. I was strangley warm considering my freezing house. I gasped. The Doctor left his trench coat on me!
"Doctor! Doctor, you forgot your..." But he was already gone.
