Free Fall
By Mariposa Torres

“Ow, ow, ow!” Rory yelped.

“Sorry!” Amy said, daubing at the back of her husband’s head with a cloth.

“What have you kids gotten into?” River said walking into the infirmary, the Doctor right behind her.

The Doctor made a beeline for Rory, lifting the rag out of Amy’s hand. “Oh look, the surface pattern of the zero gravity room.”

“Oh it turned up again?” River said and before the Doctor could ask she said flirtatiously, “Spoilers.”

“I think someone had a similar idea.” He looked at a blushing Amy. “I’m almost positive the warnings are in English.”

“And I read them.” Rory said as the Doctor ran a device over his injury. “And we’ve seen footage of people doing stuff in zero gee and thought we’d… have… some… fun.” Rory broke off as River was shaking her head at him.

“Now, River, remember these two are from a more primitive time, no one gave them zero gee navigation lessons.”

“Zero gee navigation lessons?”

“Like swimming lessons for babies or toddlers.” The Doctor said tossing the used rag into the sink. “C’mon kids, time for some lessons.”

The Doctor hung his coat on a hook outside the room next to the warning placards. He opened the door and floated away from the threshold. River finished loosely braiding Amy’s hair, then joined the Doctor in the large spherical room.

“Gentle is the key. Gentle and dainty.” The Doctor reached out and with just his fingertips pushed off of the wall.

“So no sex in space?”

“Hug rugs!” The Doctor and River said together. The Doctor continued, “Hate the bleeding things.”

“Hug rugs?” Rory asked cautiously moving into the room after Amy.

“Large thick and sturdy fabric tubes that enable anything further then snogging. Totally unromantic.” The Doctor said grabbing and catching River’s hand. “And remember that gentle is the key.” He pulled River up and they wrapped their arms around each other and shared a kiss.

“How come Rory went into the wall when he tried to snog me?”

“I wasn’t holding you like that.” Rory said, drifting closer to his wife, “And that’s quite a grip she’s got there.”

“So if we do this…” Amy pulled Rory into a hug, “Someone can always see the wall coming,” She kissed him.

Rory pushed them away from the wall and they giggled. As they spun end over end, giggling, Rory noticed something, “They slipped out.” He whispered into her ear.

Amy giggled, “Those crazy kids.”
