So this is one of the cheesy ones... Sorry, sweeties...
"Are you sure you can wait?" The Doctor said, holding my hands. "Well, Alex would want to go. Just a few years. Are you sure you want to stay?" I replied, looking into his dark and mysterious eyes. "I'm not leaving you." "I didn't tell you to leave." That night replayed over and over in my head every night for six years. The Doctor and I wanted to let Alex grow up in a normal life. We wanted her to be surrounded with reality, something Time Lords never understand. We didn't want her to be grown up on the TARDIS and she only knows those places we take her. We went back to Amy and Rory's house. They said they'd let us stay there for a while. We parked the TARDIS in the attic of the house and the Doctor learned how to drive an actual car. Well, he learned. Never said he actually drove. Alex went to school, and became the smartest girl on the continent. I guess being the daughter of two time lords pays off. We've lived here for 6 years. Alex forgot about us being Time Lords. A whole six years without time travel. The only thing she remembers is Amy and Rory being her grandparents. I feel sorry, though. We can't tell Alex about who we really are. She can't know who we really are. We are lying to our child, but that is what the Doctor does, isn't it? Lies? I sat down next to him after thinking that over. "She needs to know. Her 12th birthday is coming up. We can't lie to her for her whole life then when she's all grown up, just leave her for a honeymoon we have been waiting for, for years and visit the places she's always wanted to go. She has to know." I said, not even looking at him. "She doesn't need to know. She is just fine. If she finds out, we can't live here. She'll want to go and see the universe. And I don't want to give this up. Living together like two normal humans. You've got a job and I've got... got..." I smiled. He knows we have to tell. He looked at me, then turned around. "I know what you're thinking, River. And- and..." He got up and sighed. "You're right." "Aren't I always" I smirked, got up and kissed him. "Tomorrow is Alex's birthday. We have to tell her then. We could show her the TARDIS. Have you checked on her lately? I hope she hasn't given up on being used again." "No. Haven't been up there, but I also lost the key. And my sonic." "It could have been because you locked them both inside the TARDIS." "Yes, yes. Of course I did that. Now, River. Where's my bow tie?" He hasn't worn his suit in over six years. "Oh, I haven't seen you like this in years." I said, straightening his bow tie and smoothing out his whispy brown hair. "Shall I get Amy and Rory? They'd love to see you like this." "No, no. I'm going to show everyone." He said, walking down the stairs. "AMY? RORY?" We walked into the lounge where my parents were watching television with Alex. "Guess who's back?" He smiled. The Doctor. My Doctor.
