The Power of Three [Part 3]

TV...

"The end of a week of cubic questions and theories, but no answers. Could this be the greatest stealth marketing campaign in business history? And, if it is, will those behind it ever come forward and explain exactly what it's for?"

Inside, Club, Night, October...

Amy seemed to be out with one of her friends, Laura.

"I'm so pleased for you two." Amy smiled. "It's about time you made an honest woman of her."

"Amy. About bridesmaids." Laura began. "You've missed quite a few things the last year or two."

"I'm so totally there." Amy quickly assured her. "Whatever you need."

Inside, Hospital, Corridor...

Rory and another nurse, Ranjit, were walking down the corridor with a patient on a gurney.

"Everyone loves you -- the nurses, the doctors." Ranjit told him. "You're a lifesaver, mate, literally."

"Ha ha!" Rory chuckled. "Well, thanks."

"But there are months when we don't see you." Ranjit stated. "We can't do without you. I want you to go full-time."

"Full time?" Rory questioned. "Blimey. Uh --"

Inside, Pond-Williams home, Master bedroom...

Amy and Rory were sitting up against the headboard of their bed, drinking tea.

"I said yes." Rory told Amy, glancing at her. "I committed."

Amy looked over at him. "And I committed to being a bridesmaid, months in advance, like I know I'm gonna be here."

"So, the Doctor and Lexi are God knows where. Who the hell knows how long they've actually been gone? And, the cubes don't do anything at all. Did our real life just get started?"

Amy looked up from her tea mug. "I like it."

"So do I." Rory agreed, taking a sip of his tea.

Inside, TARDIS, the Doctor and Lexi's bedroom...

"Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex," The Doctor said as he quickly rushed into the bedroom, holding something behind his back.

Lexi looked up from the pregnancy book she was reading, raising an eyebrow at her husband as she sat back against the headboard.

"What is it?" She asked, not being able to contain a smile of amusement.

"Look what the TARDIS let
me find in the wardrobe for baby Sky." He said excitedly before pulling a little tiny red bow tie out from behind his back as he walked over to the side of the bed.

Lexi laughed as she took the small garment from him before examining it. "This is actually pretty adorable."

"I thought so." The Doctor grinned.

She giggled, placing a hand on her stomach as she felt a kick.

"They're stirring." Lexi smiled.

The Doctor smiled, running a gentle hand over his wife's tummy. "They're not even here and yet they already can't wait to begin running. Oh, and also..." He smiled, pulling out a small red headband with a little red bow attached to it. "Found something for baby Jupiter, too."

Lexi laughed, taking the little headband from him. She then looked back and forth between the two baby accessories, smiling as a tear or two escaped her eyes.

"What's wrong?" The Doctor asked, concerned as he laid down on his side and propped himself up on his elbow.

"Nothing." Lexi sniffled, shaking her head as she sat little bow tie and little headband aside on the nightstand. "Stupid hormones."
