.DW.
He flopped down onto the ground, each gasp making a rattling sound inside him. Noticing River's concern he held his breath and punched himself on left side of the chest.
"My heart stopped," he looked mildly concerned until a awe filled smile swept over his face, "that's never happened to me before."
"Bet you say that to all the girls," River patted his cheek with the back of her hand and smiled lazily.
"No, no, well... Martha, well, she started it again, because of witches, something witchy, witchy business," he clicked his fingers a few times, but nothing came to the fore. "Martha. Shakespeare. Love, Labours, Won. It's in here somewhere." He rolled his head on the pillow and looked River in the eye, smiling sheepishly, "And that time with Donna... No, that was Sparkling Cyanide, a nasty wasp slipped it into my drink. All fixed with ginger beer, walnuts, anchovies and a good old fashioned kiss, I mean shock, which was a kiss, shocked me though."
"I'm sure it was wonderful," River said pulling the sheet up to her chin.
"It wasn't bad, bit salty. I don't think I'll ever be a big fan of anchovies or wasps after that." He noticed River sudden issue with her modesty and gave her a confused frown, then he flushed, "She kissed me, I didn't initiate it. It was a detox to reverse the apoenzymes, it wasn't sexy. Me and Donna are, were just mates," he added nervously.
She patted him on the stomach forgivingly, "Your bedside manner is atrocious."
"It's not thaaat bad, it's not like I brought up that time your Mum snogged and tried to seduce me!" The Doctor looked startled as River got up, pulling the bedcovers away with her. "Where are you going? What about round 2?"
She glared disgustedly at him from the doorway, "I've got a headache, I need to wash my hair, pick any of the above," she said slamming the door on him.
