It was a boring, but sunny Thursday afternoon and River was sat reading a book in her personal library, she didn't like this once as much as the one in the TARDIS. She was reading what must be the worst book ever to be written, The Golden Apples. She threw the book down in boredom. She got up and walked through to the kitchen to get a drink when she heard a scuffling sound, she drew out her gun, she never went anywhere without it and walked as quietly to the kitchen as she possibly could. She spun round the door and pointed the gun at the mysterious figure that was in her kitchen.

The figure spun round and said "Honey, I'm home." It was the Doctor, she couldn't quite believe it, and more to the point how did her get in the house without her noticing?

She put her gun away and rushed over to the Doctor, she give him the biggest hug ever and said "You've been gone 3 months, I have been bored!"

He hugged her back and then planted the biggest kiss on her rose red lips, the kiss must have been good because it smudged her perfect lipstick. She kissed back and caressed his face gently. He hadn't aged a day, why should he. He was perfection in her eyes. She was the woman who was supposed to kill the Doctor, but instead fell deeply and madly in love with him. She thought to herself and thought about how proud her parents would have been of her, they were off travelling the world. She could have gone with them, but she chose to stay at home waiting for her Doctor in case her came for her.

He grabbed her waist and spun her round. "Professor Song, oh how I have missed you..." he said looking deeply into her eyes.

She smiled gently at him and said in a sweet voice "You could've come home earlier." She unhooked his arms from around her and rushed over to the living room and jumped on the sofa, she patted the space beside her.

The Doctor looked through the cupboards for Jammie Dodgers before following his wife. Finally finding his Jammie Dodgers in the cupboards, River had hid them well, he walked over and sat down beside his wife.

He took a deep breath and looked at her. She was perfection. She was beautiful. She had beautiful lips that once contained perfect red lipstick, it was now smudged. He looked at her eyes, he was lost in them, they were beautiful.

He took a bite of his Jammie Dodger, and then realized what a beautiful woman he had married, he realized how lucky he was and wondered how he ever left her on her own. "River, pack your bags, we are going somewhere. Actually, don't pack, you have a full wardrobe in the TARDIS." he said to her in a small yet demanding voice.

He stood up and took his wife's hands and draped them over his shoulders. He once again looked deep into her eyes and said in a soft voice "Did I ever tell you how beautiful you look today - not that you don't look beautiful everyti.."

She interrupted him mid-sentence and replied "I know what you mean sweetie." She went to kiss his cheek but her turned his head and she ended up kissing him on the lips again...

He took her hand and led her to the TARDIS, he knew she was excited, she always was when they went on an adventure. "Where are the Ponds?" he asked before they went inside.

River replied with "I think they are in Australia at the minute, I'm not sure. Good job I didn't go with them eh sweetie" she looked at him struggling to find the TARDIS key and walked back to the kitchen and to fetch the spare.

As she walked through to the kitchen, she saw the mess he had left with his Jammie Dodgers, she sighed and left it. She would clear it when she got back, if she ever came back. She hoped it would be a while before she would see this miserable, lonely house again... She went in the kitchen draw and got the spare TARDIS key, she walked back through the hallway to the TARDIS to find that the Doctor was already inside.

She walked in mesmerized, he had totally done the place up for her. There we banners saying Happy Birthday and on the sofa there was a present. He walked over to the sofa and picked up the present. River walked over to him with a quick pace. "Happy Birthday darling. Bet you thought I had forgotten" he said with a smirk on his face. She knew from that smirk that he was proud of himself so she didn't put him down. 

River sat down on the sofa and the the Doctor sat next to her. He handed her the present. She untied the red ribbon and then carefully peeled back the teddy bear wrapping paper. He had to be a child some where along the lines, she thought to herself.

She passed the teddy bear wrapping paper to her eager husband. She looked at it, it was a medium sized black box. She opened it and there was the most beautiful necklace. She gently  stroked the gems. He took the box of her hand picked the necklace up. "Lift your hair up." River lifted her hair up and he put the beautiful necklace around her neck.

After he had fastened the clasp, he kissed her neck gently and hugged her from behind. He then preceed to tickle her in the one place she hated it the most, her stomach. She twisted round and fell off the sofa onto the floor of the TARDIS control room.

She got up instantly, she could never stay mad at him. She gave him a look, and in that moment he shot up and ran away. He ran down the stairs as fast as he could and then her hid in the most conveniant place. "I will get you sweetie" she shouted after him with a chuckle in her voice.

He waited silently until she ran straight past his hiding place, and then her ran up behind her and grabbed her. She twisted around and then he pressed her against the corridor wall. She put her arms around his shoulders and he had his arms round her slim waist. His face got closer to hers, they were both panting.

River went in for a kiss, but then pulled away last minute. She eased herself from the Doctors grip and ran as fast as she could, she headed towards the pool. She knew that there were two pools within the TARDIS. One was in the library and the other was more romantic.

She headed for the pool which was more romantic, if you looked upwards you could see moon and the stars. It was perfect for what she was planning for her husband. Running through the corridors, she could hear the Doctor running behind her.

She finally reached the pool. She stopped for a second to catch her breath and she looked around, it was more beautiful than she remembered. She took her shoes off and quickly jumped in the pool, she got striaght back out again. Her clothes were soaked through, just in time, the Doctor arrived. He looked at her and she knew he was melting inside. Originally, she has a white blouse on, but now it was soaked, it was see through. 'Hello sweeite" River said in her most seductive voice.

He walked up to her and grabbed her by her waist once again. She was still stood by the edge of the pool. He took a deep breath and she didn't know why, seconds later, he had threw them both into the water of the pool.

Both underwater, they swam towards each other and grabbed each other. They kissed underwater, but it was spoiled for the need for oxygen. They both rose to the surface of the water, still holding each other and gasped for breath. River smiled at the Doctor and he smiled back. They both knew that they were meant for each other, and they never wanted to let go.
