I woke up to see the Doctor in boxers. I must admit I did not see it coming. I was woken up by my screeching alarm clock. I pounded it and sat up and swung my legs over the side of the bed. I noticed that I was not on the side I usually woke up on. I looked over at the side where I usually woke up and saw that the blanket had been tossed over. "What the hell did I drink last night?" I thought to myself. I couldn't really remember last night but that usually happens when I go to a bar. I got up and opened the curtains to let the sun in. It was a beautiful morning so I got up and got dressed. I put on a pair of jeans and I found my Union Jack t-shirt and put it on for old memories. I went over to my mirror and put on some of my make-up just to get ready for the day. Then I turned to leave but out of the corner of my eye I saw a pile of clothes laying on the floor so I did what any other person would do and ignored them. I walked out to see the Doctor, In his boxers, Drinking from the milk carton. He said good morning and I just stared at him almost completely naked and drinking from my milk carton. I asked him where his clothes had gone and he ran off to go find them as if he had just noticed they were gone. I rubbed my head and walked into the living room to see two wine glasses sitting on the coffee table. The tv was still playing and it was on some news show so I turned it off and walked over to the window then starred into the new-day sun just wondering what was going to happen today. The Doctor came out fixing his belt while his shirt was around his neck, exposing his chest. I loved the Doctor from his dorky ears to his toothy smile and right down to his piercing blue eyes. But I couldn't let him know this so I stood at the window until he came over to me, now with his shirt on.

"So where are we off to today Doctor?" I asked

"You'll see." He replied as he smiled that toothy grin of his and headed for the door.

I followed him and we went down to the TARDIS. He unlocked the door and we went inside. It still amazed me how he could fit the entire thing into this tiny blue box. I ran up the ramp and looked at the Doctor. He glanced up at me for a second and then looked back down. I could tell he knew something but I didn't know what. I walked over and sat down and was determined that I going to remember what happened last night even if it took all day. I didn't know it yet but, it was gonna take longer than that. I pushed the thought of it away. It was a good day and I didn't need that on my mind. I was really curious of what was going to happen today because I could just tell that it was gonna be something big. You could feel it in the air.

"So where exactly are we going Doctor?" I asked.

"Well I'll put it like this, you need more milk so we are going to go get some more." He replied.

I stared at him blankly,"That's it? That's all were doing? Flying in a big fancy space ship to go buy a carton of milk?!" I exclaimed.

"Yeah that's pretty much it but if you don't like it, you could go run along and hang out with Ricky, I'm sure he's missed you." He sassed.

"It's Mickey and that's a pretty good idea I think that's just what I'll do." I said smiling at the thought of seeing Mickey again.

I ran out of the alien ship and took out my phone and dialed his number. It ringed a few times and went to voice mail. "That's ok" I thought "I'll just surprise him instead." Mickey's house wasn't too far from mine so I hailed a taxi and gave the driver his address. He drove up to the building and I got out and thanked him. I ran up and knocked on the door. He answered the door with a t-shirt and shorts on. He had a confused look on his face but I could tell he was happy to see me.

"Rose? Is that you?"

"Yep it's me I'm back."

And just as I had planed he gave me a big bear hug so I hugged him back. I was so happy to see him again. He invited me inside and closed the door. He went to the kitchen and brought out two cups of tea. I took a sip of mine and set it down.
