summary: A little fluffy post-episode for Planet of the Ood.
A/N: I was rewatching the deleted scene of Planet of the Ood that drakochi posted here and I noticed that the Doctor calls the Tardis our ship. Our ship.Interesting...
'Our’ ship landed …, ‘our’ ship…How could he have been that stupid and let slip that up? Thank God, she didn’t noticed…
And also, since when his beautiful spaceship, the old girl, as he affectionately refers to her has become their ship? Well, if he’s honest with himself, since the first night she spent here, right after the
Adiposes. There’s just something about her that makes him feel so comfortable, so at ease. When he’s with her, in the Tardis, it feels like home, hence ‘our’ ship. Not that he will ever tell her that. He already has trouble to admit that to himself. He’s not supposed to enjoy domesticity. That’s what he says to people. He doesn’t do domestics. Not him. He’s a Timelord. Timelords don’t do that sort of things. Never. And yet he does. And he likes it. That’s the problem. He sighs.
As much as he enjoys running for their lives, hands in hands with Donna, he likes even more the quiet times he spends with her, alone in the Tardis, just talking or reading in the library, or simply sitting silently in the sofa, close to her, just watching the fire slowly burning in the fireplace…Maybe he’s getting old? No, that can’t be that! It’s her fault, really. Donna seems to have that strange effect on him. While he’s a perfectly sociable person, he has found out recently that what he likes the most is spending time alone with Donna. He doesn’t know why, really. That’s just how he feels. And he didn’t really like that Halpen bloke trying to impress her with that rocket…Well, she wasn’t really impress, was she? Nah…She had called it a Ferrari but she was just teasing him, right? Yeah, she was, that’s what she does. She always teases him…Anyway…
Why is it suddenly so important to him what Donna might think of him? And why does he feel the need to impress her? He never did that with Rose and Martha…Well, to be fair, he didn’t really need to, they had been impressed by him from the start, while Donna…He doesn’t know, she is just different, Donna, He has never met someone like her before, someone who’s not afraid to speak her mind and stand up to him if she thinks he’s wrong. He likes that, he finds it quite endearing and…what? Endearing? Oh God, that’s it. She has done it. With her fiery temper, her sense of humour and her brilliant self, she has bewitched him. Oh yes. She had reduced him into a pathetic human teenage boy trying to impress the girl he likes and she has only been there for her couple of weeks…He gulps. No, he thinks, he will be fine. All he has to do is stay strong, not pay attention of how pretty she is and remind himself that she’d kill him if she knew the way he sees her now. Yes, he’ll do that and everything will be fine. Just stay strong, he nods to herself. He can do it He will. He has fought Daleks and Cybermens and countless of others creatures, he can resist Donna Noble. He can.
And yet, a couple of days later, he will find himself say ‘yes’ to her when she’ll ask him to teach him how to drive his ship, well ‘their ship, just because she’ll give him a beautiful and warm smile, making his hearts flutter…So much for staying strong...
