The Doctors Daughter Is Back

7 Little Mice 🐭

I've been travelling with my dad and his companions for awhile now. If I was to put it into relative time, then it's been 2 months. During which we've almost died every day, but I must admit I love the running. Watching my father work that brain of his and seeing places that until recently I hadn't seen before.

Currently, my father is trying to win an argument with Rory about bunckbeds being cool, and that Rory and Amy should keep them like that and that he wasn't budging. Rory though was just getting annoyed, continually saying that he and Amy should share a bed and that it wasn't fare that I got my own( I mean really, why did he have to bring me into it I haven't done anything wrong!).

You can hear the yelling down the hallways all the way to the control room where Amy and I sat looking at random videos on YouTube. I look at Amy when she didn't laugh at the funny dog, to see her with her head down and her other hand on her stomach.

"Amy? Are you alright? You look like you've seen a ghost." She's pale and almost sickly looking. Like She's about to spew all over the console.

"I don't know. I feel.. like I'm gonna be sick." I grab a bucket just in time as she puked out her guts.

"That's it I'm taking you to a hospital. Best in the universe and time. Da-DOCTOR!" I yell. I almost slipped up though. But soon him and Rory come running in worried about the yelling.

"I'm taking her in Bob to a hospital, she's not well. And I don't care if you're a doctor and a nurse I'm taking her. Doctor, why don't you and Rory spend a little bonding time without us girls. I'll look after Amy, while you babysit Rory."

"Babysit?!" Rory exclaimed.

"But!-" my father was about to go on.

"No buts. We're going now!" I take Amy's hand and the bucket and leave the TARDIS. Taking Bob I grow him back to his original size and send Amy in before turning back to the boys who claim to be men. "Behave while We're gone please?" I beg.

Once I walked into Bob I immediately set a course to Selthizer, the best hospital known in all history.

Once landing I give Amy some special sunglasses to protect her eyes. "Why? Is the sun really bright or something?" Her Scottish accent sounding groggy and rough.

"The natural ground of the planet is basically a giant mirror. It won't hurt your skin like a sunburn, but it will melt out your eyes if you don't ware the right protection." I explain. She nods along before she's got her head back in the bucket.

Rushing her out we walk in to a large building covering almost half of the planet. It's one of the reasons why it's so great, it's the biggest hospital in history. If you were sick or on your death bed, this is where you want to be.

"Hello how may I help you?" The lady at the desk asked.

"My friend here is immensely sick. She's pale, clammy, vomiting and seems like she's about to go down." As I say this her fingers type wicked fast on her computer.

"Go down?" She asks just as Amy collapses.

"Like that." I say as the lady calls over two nurses who carry her the a koly (basically a floating bed that sits you up and has a field to give you clean oxygen, but also keeping everyone else safe in case of it being contagious).

I run along side her to a room, they set the koly down to a reasonable level as a doctor comes in. "I think we can start with a few tests, and try to get a general idea of what's wrong. I do have an idea but I'm hoping I'm wrong." I nod and sit by Amy's side while they run tests and Amy is constantly complaining about being hungry.

As Amy finally gets some food as it's now dinner time, the doctor comes in with a grim look. "I have your results." We nod waiting for him to continue. "I'm sorry but you've had a miscarriage. You collapsed due to the pain, we found both bright red and brown discharge and rements of your wall within it. I'm so sorry for your loss. We'll keep you here overnight but you can leave in the morning once we have made sure you're at no risk."

With that he left. Leaving us to silence.

"I hadn't even told Rory." She said with silent tears running down her face. There was no cracks in her voice no sadness it's like she's.. numb. "I was about to you know.."

She turns and looks at me with a sad smile. "He was going to be a father. We we're going to be a family." And there's the cracks. She breaks down and I hold her. It's all I can do right now.

"Amy I'm so sorry." She grabs my shirt tightly and looks up at me.

"Yo-you can't-... you can't tell Rory I'm begging you, don't tell anyone please!" Her pleading eyes and her breaking voice how could she think I would tell.

"Amy, Amy I won't tell unless you want me too. But if you ever and I mean ever want to talk about it, I'm here." I tried to stay calm with my own tears falling down my face. She buried her head in my chest and mumbled something. "What was that?" I asked moving away a little.

"Tell me something. Tell me something that know one knows." She asked quietly.

With a heavy heart, I did. "The Doctor.. he's my father." I didn't look down, I couldn't. "He's my mother and father actually, and he knows about me. Just.. he thought I had died, but really.. " I tried to calm my voice as it shook.

"But really I had regenerated. Now he doesn't even recognise me. Oh how bad I want to yell that it's me, but.. he has delt with so much death and pain.. I don't think I could bare to see his face if he ever found out." I can't say anymore as my voice is now gone. Broken down to nothing but sobbs.

This time Amy held me, so tightly that I almost couldn't breathe. "I'm so sorry. I'm so, so sorry. I won't tell. I promise I won't tell."

That night we fell asleep in each other's arms on the bed, rapped around one another with dried tear streaked cheeks, all puffy and red.

The next morning the nurses and doctors ran some last test, clearing Amy to leave when she's ready. With deep breaths she and I walked out there to Bob hand in hand with our glasses on. We didn't call the boys immediately. Instead Amy had an idea.

So with that we travelled to a small tattoo shop where we both got one. Amy got a small bunny holding a flower. The flower for her baby, and the bunny for our promises.

I got the same except facing hers if we were to put them together and instead of a flower it was a tiny screwdriver to resemble my dad and again the bunny was for our secrets.

We grew closer now. And with that we called the boys. We were to meet them in a small Cafe on earth at a time for coffee and food.

Getting there I shrunk Bob and put him back on his key chain. Walking in again hand in hand we see the boys and just before we get to the table our hands separate.

"About time you got here we've been waiting for an hour." Rory exclaimed.

"Rory, we're right on time, see?" Amy says showing Rory her watch that did in fact say that we're on time. I didn't have the heart to tell her that she didn't rewind her watch. Rory, the smart lad, decided to back down as my father smiled behind his cup.

"So how'd it go?" He finally asks putting his cup down when Amy and I got comfy in our seats.

"Turned out to be a 24hour bug thing. Nothing magger." Amy lied through her teeth while smiling that lovely smile of her's.

"Yeah nothing bad, they did a few tests on her and basically said to take it easy, though she might feel tired for awhile after the hit her body took." I spoke up.

"So you're ok?" Rory asked taking her hands in his. Her hands, the ones I've been holding. They look so small in his.

"Yeah I'm alright. So what did our big strong men get up to?" She asked changing the subject.

The boys went on telling a story about going to some garden and saying that absolutely nothing went wrong, that everything was perfect and nothing bad happened. As they spoke this Amy and I looked at each other knowingly.

But we let them continue, at least they bonded. That was good right?

I know it's been a long time, but I hope you like this, and that it makes up for lost time.
