Traveling With The Last Time Lord ➽ Doctor Who [1]

{0} Prologue

***

Today had to be one of the most stressful days that Belle's ever had. Let's just say that work was a hassle as usual. Belle worked as a waitress in a cafe and the customers she has to deal with sometimes are not the best. She can recall one instance almost immediately when thinking about the difficulty of her job. There was one customer who had become upset that she gave them exactly what they had ordered. But, of course, the customer is always right so she had to make them a whole new order. They most likely enjoyed seeing her have to put in a lot more work than was needed. Belle had wanted to quit on multiple occasions. Sadly, in the world everyone lived in, you need money to live so quitting her job was not something that would help her.

Thankfully, she was home now. Not at work, dealing with difficult people. It was finally time for her to relax and spend time in peace and quiet. She placed her keys on the small table by the door and walked straight to the couch, not even bothering to take her shoes off. Finally, there was no one yelling at her. No one asking her (more like shouting) where their food was. No one telling her to hurry up. No one yelling at her for something that wasn't even her fault. That was what today mostly consisted of. Sighing, Belle reached over to grab the remote from the coffee table. Now would be the perfect time to start watching some Doctor Who.

Doctor Who was one of the girl's favorite TV shows. She started watching it years ago and was completely caught up with it. From what she had heard, season eight was coming out later this year. Belle couldn't wait to find out what kind of adventures the Doctor and Clara would have, especially since Eleven had regenerated into his Twelfth regeneration. Until then, she had tried to find other TV shows to keep her occupied. She knew that if she continued to watch Doctor Who over and over again, it would cause her to become impatient when it came to waiting for the new season. Well, Belle tried to watch other things. She only ended up being dragged right back to Doctor Who. She turned on the TV and put on the episode she was last on. Hungry Earth. Not one of her favorite episodes, but not too bad. The pacing of it was kind of slow and stagnant. It made it feel like the episode was dragging on forever.

The episode played on the TV and Belle paid attention as best as she could. Her body seemed to have a different idea as her eyes kept closing. The blonde desperately tried to fight sleep. It would be bad for her sleeping schedule to be completely off for the fifth time this month. It made work hell if she ended up taking a nap during the day. She was never able to go to sleep that night if she had taken a nap. Sadly, she wasn't able to hold it off for long. Sleep had taken over before she could even get past the beginning credits.

A loud bang was what broke Belle out of her sleep. She opened her eyes slowly to see what had caused the noise. At first, she thought that it might have been her cat, Snow. She usually liked to knock stuff over. There was one time Belle came back from work and her apartment was completely trashed. Sitting right in the middle of the chaos had been Snow who had looked up at the woman with wide and seemingly innocent eyes. Yeah, she wasn't as innocent as she tried to make herself seem. She was the devil most of the time, but Belle still loved her. That's just how cats were.
