Delilah slowly made her way towards the Doctor. She watched Ella walk away and turned to face the man again.

"Excuse me," she said. The Doctor turned, and his face went slack with shock.

"A-" he said, before Delilah quickly pinched his arm, hiding the movement.

"This way," she whispered. Delilah lead the Doctor through the house, until she found a deserted room. The Doctor grabbed her shoulders and held her at arm's length.

"Atia," he breathed. Delilah/Atia shrugged his hands off her shoulders.

And smacked him across the face.

"OW!" He shouted, lifting his hand to the bright red mark left by the slap.

"You deserved it!" Atia snapped. "You told me you didn't care about me any more! I hated you!"

The Doctor blanched.

"I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry. But do you still hate me?" He said quietly.

Atia sighed, her anger leaving her.

"No, Doctor. If I did, I wouldn't have come up to you," Atia said. The Doctor sighed in relief, and smiled at her.

The redhead next to him leaned closer and whispered, "Which one we on?"

"10th, I think," he whispered back.

"Mum! Mum, where are you?" Called a voice.

Atia looked back.

"Pel," she said. "And she's in trouble."
