The Secret Timelady

How Long?! Ha,your face!

"How long have we been gone?" I asked the doctor as we stepped out of the T.A.R.D.I.S at the Powell Estate.
"About twelve hours." He told me.
Alright, we will be back just want to see mum and grab some things." I told him as rose nodded.
"What are going to tell her?" The Doctor Asked us.
"What I'll just say I've been to the year 5 billion." I joked.
"I'll just tell her we were at Shareen's, see you later, don't disappear," Rose said as we ran up the stairs to the flat.
"We're back!"I yelled as I walked into the apartment.
"We were with Shareen. Are you in? What it's not the first time I've stayed out all night." Rose said freaked out.
"It's you." Mum gasped as she dropped her cup of tea staring at us in shock.
"Of course it's us," I said confused.
"Oh my god. It's you, oh my god." She said before pulling both of us into a hug and that's when I noticed all the missing posters of me and rose.
"It's not twelve hours, it's twelve months. You've both been gone a whole year. Sorry." The doctor said as he ran in.
"It's been how long!" I yell in shock.
"Sorry." He flinched.
"You said twelve hours," I told him.
"I missed a little bit." He reasoned.
"A little bit, it's been a year!" I said angrily as I kicked him in the shin.
"Ow!" He said as he held his shin in pain.
"That's my girl," Mum said happily before she became angry and called the police. When the officer arrived she went off on us.
"The hours I've sat here, days and weeks and months, all on my own. I thought you were dead, and where were you? Traveling. What the hell does that mean, traveling? That's no sort of answer. You ask them. They won't tell me. That's all they say. Traveling." Mum said.
"That's what we were doing," I told mum.
"When your passports are still in the drawer. It's just one lie after the other." She said upset.
"Well, I have mine," I told her as I pulled mine out of my pocket.
"Alright you make sense then but what about you Rose?" Mum asked Rose as I was in the clear.
"I meant to phone. I really did. I just forgot." Rose said.
"What for a year. Nicole I understand traveling she finished school, she can do things on her own. Plus she is a little weird so she would forget. No offense darling." She told me.
"None taken," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.
"Actually it's my fault. I sort of er employed Rose and Nicole as my companions." The Doctor said.
"When you say companions, is this a sexual relationship," the officer asked.
"No." The three of us said together as me and the Doctor both had small blushes on our faces.
"Then what is it because you waltz in here all charm and smiles, and the next thing I know, they vanish off the face of the earth! Hold old are you then? Forty? Forty-five? What, did you find them on the internet? Did you go online and pretend you're a doctor?" She asked upset.
"I am a doctor." He told her.
"Prove it. Stitch this mate!" She yelled as she slapped him hard causing me to choke as I laughed. As Rose and mum went to the kitchen to talk I checked on the Doctor.
"Are you alright?" I asked him.
"Yeah, I've never been slapped by someone's mum before." He said in shock.
"Your face was hilarious." I laughed.
"It hurt." He complained rubbing his cheek as Rose came over to us.
"Come on let's head to the roof." She suggested as we followed her up.
"Well, are you two going to stay here now?" The Doctor asked us.
"Nope." I said as I sat next to him and swung my legs.
"I don't know. I can't do that to her again though." Rose said.
"Well, she's not coming with us." The Doctor said.
"No chance," I said with a chuckle.
"I don't do families." He said.
"Nine hundred years of time and space and I've never been slapped by someone's mother." He said.
"When you say nine hundred?" Rose asked.
"That's my age." He confirmed.
"So you are nine hundred years old?" I asked.
"Yeah." He replied.
"My mum was right. That is one hell of an age gap. Every conversation with you goes mental. There is no one else we can talk too. We have seen all that stuff up there, the size of it. And we can't say a thing. Aliens and spaceships and things, and we are the only people on planet earth who knows they exist." Rose said just as a spaceship passes by blaring its horn. Black smoke was trailing behind it as it crashed into Big Ben before crashing into the river.
"Look Rose you jinxed it." I laughed as she stood in shock.
"Oh, that's just not fair." She said with a sigh. The doctor and I immediately headed to the stairs as Rose followed after a minute. As we finally got to the street it was already blocked off by the army.
"It's blocked off." The doctor said.
"Thanks for stating the obvious," I replied.
"We're miles from the center. The city must be gridlocked. The whole of London must be closing down." Rose said.
"I know. I can't believe I'm here to see this." I said happily.
"This is lovely."
"This is fantastic."
"Did you know this was going to happen?" Rose asked the Doctor.
"Nope." He answered.
"Do you recognize the ship?" I asked him.
"Nope." He said.
"Do you know why it crashed?" Rose asked.
"Nope." He said again.
"Oh, I'm so glad we've got you," I said sarcastically.
"I bet you are. This is what I travel for, Nicole, Rose. To see history happening right in front of us." The Doctor told us.
"Well let's go and see it. Never mind the traffic, we've got the T.A.R.D.I.S." Rose said.
"Better not. They already have one big spaceship in the middle of London. I don't want to shove another one on top." I explained to her.
"Exactly as Nicole said." The Doctor told her.
"Yeah but yours looks like a big blue box. No one's going to notice." Rose said.
"You'd be surprised. An emergency like this, there'll be all kinds of people watching. Trust me. The T.A.R.D.I.S should stay where it's at." I said.
"So history is happening and we are stuck here?" Rose asked.
"Yes, we are." The doctor said.
"We could always do what everybody else does. We could watch it on tv." Rose said with a shrug of her shoulders. I nodded my head as we all began walking back to the flat hoping to see it on tv.
