The matte white painted door shook as Clara violently rattled her cluster of keys, the blue one was jammed into the key hole. Clara broke into a sweat trying to open her door, for the 500th time, after trying for about 30 minutes, she gave up, kicked the door in anger and sighed.
Her hand was about to slip off of the keys until she felt a soft touch against her skin, that went red due to how hard she was gripping the keys. Clara didn't turn around and she lowered her gaze down to his hand, as he twisted the slippery door knob he mumbled
"You forgot to turn it."
Clara could feel his breath on the back of her small ears which made her shiver and the little hairs on her arm stand on end. He noticed that so he grabbed Clara by the shoulders and rubbed his hands on her pinkish baby smooth skin.
"Feeling cold are we?" He enquired, looking at her for a reply.
Clara let out a little smirk which curved her lips at the edges as she pushed the door forward and jumped on to the sofa.
"No, not at all doctor. All nice and warm now." She replied while feeling for the tv remote. She got herself cosy, slipping her velvet dolly shoes off and pulling the blanket from the crease in between the two sofa cushions. Clara looked at the doctor with her eyebrows raised for a few seconds and patted the sofa down, a request for him to come and sit next to her.
The doctor tutted and rolled back his eyes "Oh come on Clara we haven't been on an adventure in ages! Let's go and save a planet or two, come with me!"
"Doctor you really took the remote. AGAIN?! Doctor this isn't fair I'M A SCHOOL TEACHER I just want to watch a bit of telly and eat" Clara holds her arm in the air for the remote not making any eye contact with the doctor.
The doctor threw the scratched up remote out of the small square window, bordered with a plain plastic frame and yanked Clara up by her extended hand. Clara slumps her shoulders and looked at the doctor wearily.
"Noo doctor let's just stay home"
"Clara maybe that would be fun for you but I'm a timelord, with a superior brain and I will die of boredom if I stay a minute longer"
Clara's eyes lit up as she jumped on to her tippy toes.
"I've got an idea then" She says in a high tone as she clapped her hands together and rushed to her leather bag to dig through tons of paper.
The doctor tapped his feet impatiently for a few minutes and finally moaned
"Claraaa pleaaase"
"Nope! I've found something that will keep you very occupied with that big head of yours" She said as she lifted up a huge pile of rustling papers and dumped them onto the coffee table.
"What's this?!"
"Oh nothing, just marking.."
"CLARA NO THIS ISN'T FAIR IT'S YOUR WORK WHY SHOULD I DO IT NO I'M NOT DOING TH-"
"UBUBBUBUBUB! I promise that if you do this marking, which would be easy for a timelord with 'superior abilities' like you, I will run away with you and come back whenever you want"
That shut the doctor up, it was a great deal and he was sure he'd finish the marking in a few minutes..maximum.
The doctor squeezed her hand and shook it up and down in agreement.
"You might as well put your shoes on Clara" He said arrogantly as he sorted opened the first paper.
Hours passed as the doctor scribbled through all the papers, Clara sat in the corner of the sofa, indulging her self in chocolates and a book.
The doctor shot a dirty look at Clara, with his eyes squinted. Clara, midway through chewing a toffee chocolate darted her head towards the doctor.
"What?" She asked, with a truffle slowly melting in between her petite fingers.
The doctor looked back at the unfinished papers and put the 3 marked ones on top.
"I told you, I finished them all" He said taking a deep breath, hoping Clara wouldn't spot his blatant lie.
"Oh good!" She Exclaimed as she stuffed the truffle in to her mouth.
"So, where we going?" She added, her words were muffled from the chocolate stored in her cheeks.
"Anywhere you want, Clara"
"Anywhere?"
"Anywhere! Now hurry up and choose!"
"I want to stay here, with you just watching the latest episode of eastenders"
"Anywhere that's NOT here"
"Ugh..well I suppose I haven't had candy Floss in a while..let's go to a funfair!"
The doctor scoffed, it must have been the 1000th time he's been to a funfair? He had other plans in mind.
"Okay! Pop your ugly shoes on! Let's go!"
"Hey! They're not ugly!" She argued, while hopping on one leg, pushing her stubby feet into her velvet shoes.
"Yeah Yeah COME ON!" He said from inside the Tardis, as he pulled the lever.
Clara ran into the Tardis, swinging her leather bag onto her shoulder and slipping in through the doors just in time.
