Hi, this is
lorelaisquaredhere posting at
tardismate's request. She'd like me to apologize for her tardiness and absenteeism lately and hopes that this little treat will make up for it. Part two should be finished and posted tomorrow. Enjoy.
Title: Underneath the Christmas Tree (1/2)

The Doctor sat warily on the sofa in Jackie Tyler's living room. In the corner, not far enough away from him, stood a six foot tall artificial Christmas tree. He eyed it with suspicion, before pulling out the sonic and giving it a once-over, then scowled at it as it gave him no readings out of the norm for a triangular bit of tubular steel covered in tinsel. He was not entirely comfortable with it, especially since the last one he had come across had tried to kill them. He sighed as he remembered Rose broken-heartedly crying on Jackie's shoulder that he had left her.
Hold on.
Broken-heartedly?
That would imply that she cared for him rather more than he had thought...which was now putting some quite disconcerting ideas into his head. His musings were interrupted by the subject of these thoughts calling to him from the kitchen.
"Doctor? Can you come and carry this through for me while I'm waiting for the kettle to boil?"
Rose didn't hear any reply, so assumed he'd gotten bored and was probably doing something he shouldn't, like sonicing more channels on the tv again (her mother still wasn't used to getting the Alterian version of Strictly Come Dancing!) She sighed, turned off the kettle and went to make sure he was actually still in the flat, not back in the TARDIS.
No Doctor in the living room, which meant he could only be either in her mother's befroom, or her own. That was if he hadn't sneaked out, of course. She immediately discounted her mother's room, since she had gone to bed over an hour ago, which left her own room. She headed down the hall, pausing outside her door. She could hear him talking to himself, and stood to listen for a moment. She heard the click of a switch, a quiet buzzing, then her blood ran cold. He couldn't have found her...Oh, but he had. She felt the blood rise in her face as she pushed open her door, embarrasment flooding her.
"Doctor!" She squeaked, as she saw what he was waving at her, a rather filthy smirk playing on his face.
"Well now, Miss Tyler...and just what was this doing hiding in your knicker drawer? More importantly, does it do what I think it does, hmm? Fancy showing me just how it works?"
As he spoke, he moved closer and closer to her, moving behind her and lowering his mouth to her ear, whispering the last part. He grinned as she shivered unconsciously when his breath ghosted over her ear, lowering his mouth further to nip at the nape of her neck. When she moaned at that, he spun her around, fastened his mouth to hers and kissed her until her legs buckled beneath her. Grinning like an idiot, he quickly picked her up and carried her over to the bed, laying her right in the middle before unzipping her hoodie and unbuckling her belt. He sat down facing her, the dazed look on her face feeding his not-inconsiderable ego.
"Alright?"
Rose licked her lips and swallowed before croaking
"Mum's just over..."
"Your mother's asleep. If you're quiet, she'll never know. You gonna show me what it does, then? Or should I demonstrate it's increased capabilities?"
He chuckled as Rose's eyes went wide, and a rather dirty grin appeared on her face. It appeared she was willing to play the game after all.
"Since you've gone and changed it, maybe it would be better if you show me how it works now." She chuckled as he swallowed audibly, then her breath caught in her chest as she watched his eyes darken and his face change from cheeky grin to lustful stare. They really were going to do this. Finally.
His voice washed over her like melted chocolate and sin.
"Oh, I think you're going to like this, rather a lot. At least I hope you are...because I certainly will."
There was a quiet click, then a gentle hum filled the room.
"Ready, Rose?" A filthy grin appeared on his face.
"Oh, I've been ready for this since the first time you said 'Run!' Was just waiting for you." Her grin matched his own.
It seemed he didn't mind a bit of 'domestic' after all!
END CHAPTER ONE.
