Tenrose things

Thunderstorm

Tenrose in the thunderstorm

BOOM! Thunder rumbled among the clouds. Light flashed outside the window. Lightning lit up the features of the room in pale light. Rose burrowed under the covers and squeezed her eyes shut. Rose and the Doctor were visiting Jackie. Rose was in her bedroom while the Doctor slept on the couch. Rain fell off the roof with a melodic monotony. Lightning flashed across her room again, and Rose couldn't sleep. She was also hungry. She tiptoed out of her room and walked into the kitchen. Suddenly, a floorboard creaked. She froze. "Rose?" the Doctor whispered. She walked carefully to the couch. The Doctor's messy hair was barely visible from the nest of pillows and blankets. His huge eyes stared out at her from the nest. "It's a thunderstorm," he stated, still staring at her. Rose nodded, then started towards the kitchen. "Wait," the Doctor whisper-yelled. Rose turned around. Thunder crashed again. "Um... will you stay here with me for a while?"he asked. Lightning lit up the features of his face, making him look even more vulnerable. Rose smiled and sat next to him. "Great big time lord, and you're scared of a little thunderstorm?" she teased. He shrank further beneath the blankets, but Rose thought she could see a blush. "It's just the thought of what the lightning would do if it struck you, I guess. I couldn't imagine what I would do without you, Rose Tyler." he mumbled from the blanket nest. Rose smiled and hugged him as they rocked back and forth. "That's incredibly sweet, you know," she said. She kissed his messy hair. "I love you, Doctor," she whispered, but he was already asleep.
