I stood at the console, a pair of headphones in my ears and a book in my hand, lightly humming along to yet another Glenn Miller classic. I absolutely adore Glenn Miller. A pair of hands appeared on the console on either side of my, and a chin came to rest on my shoulder. I took one of my ear phones out, leaning back against him.

"How do you read and listen to music at the same time?" He questioned. I shrugged.

"Just because you don't have the ability to multitask," I replied, turning the page. He wrapped his arms around my waist, hugging me from behind. I put my book down and removed my other earbud, turning around and leaning against the console while wrapping my arms around his neck. "I think we could do with a trip to Cardiff." He furrowed his eyebrows. "I think the old girl could use a bit of a recharge." He nodded.

"Probably right."

"I always am." I pointed out. He rolled his eyes and I laughed, pressing my mouth breifly to his.

"Good morning to you too." He smiled, kissing me again before pulling away and going to the console. "Right then, let's go to Cardiff."

"Oh, we're already there." He stopped, looking at me.

"Then why did you tell me we needed to go if you'd already gone and done it?"

"I don't know! You're very possessive of your beloved TARDIS."

"Maybe you should date her."

"That'd be kind of a one-sided relationship, don't you think?" I smirked at him, biting my lip.

The TARDIS gang had all found their own stuff to do. Jack and Rose were currently talking about heaven knows what, and the Doctor and I were standing on the platform doing some repairs. There was a knock at the door, which Jack answered.

"Who the hck are you?" I heard him ask.

"What do you man, who the heck am I? Who the heck are you?"

"Captain Jack Harkness. Whatever you're selling, we're not buying."

"Get out of my way." He moved and Mickey smith strolled into the TARDIS.

"Don't tell me. This must be Mickey."

"Here comes trouble! How're you doing, Ricky boy?" The Doctor called.

"It's Mickey!"

"Ignore him. He's just winding you up." I told him.

"Katherine, great to see you as usual."

"Right back at you." I replied. He turend to Rose.

"You look fantastic." She hugged him.

"Aw, sweet, look at these two. How come I never get any of that?"

"Buy me a drink first." The Doctor shot back.

"You're such hard work."

"But worth it."

"Not that you'll ever find out!" I shouted.

"Did you manage to find it?" Rose asked Mickey.

"There you go." He handed her her passport.

"I can go anywhere I want now."

"I told you, you don't need a passport." The Doctor said.

"It's all very well going to Platform One and Justica and the Glass Pyramid of San Kaloon, but what if we end up in Brazil? I might need it. You see, I'm prepared for anything."
