The Domestic Life - Part 3
After a few hours on the zeppelin, The Doctor and a very sleepy Rose got off, Rose had already explained to The Doctor that there would be paparazzi there, there always is.
They finally got in to the car after being pictured and got in to their car.
“Blimey, is it like that all the time?” asked The Doctor.
“Yeah, and now it’s going to be worse because you’re the new mystery man, so they’ll wanna know who you are and if we’re together etc etc. “explained Rose.
“Oh, great.” Said the Doctor sarcastically.
“Tell me about it.” Rose said and turned to the window and looked to see how close they were to her flat. “Mum, who are they dropping off first me and The Doctor or you back at home?” asked Rose.
“Erm, I think they’re dropping me off and then they’ll take you home I think, why?” said Jackie curiously.
“Just wondered, couldn’t figure out where abouts we were that’s all.” Rose turned to The Doctor as he began to speak.
“You don’t live at the mansion any more then?” wondered The Doctor.
“No, never, couldn’t handle it with Tony coming along I thought I’d leave mum and dad to have a happy start of a family and it was about time I moved out seen as though I’m 23.”
“Right, so from your age I’m gathering you’ve been for 3 years?”
“Yep!” said Rose, popping the p just as he did.
“So, in those 3 years, has there ever been anyone else?” said The Doctor lifting an eyebrow.
“Erm, no, well except Ben, but that was only a couple of months, he’s my best friend, couldn’t be anything more.” explained Rose.
“Right, so this Ben guy, is he better looking than me? “Wondered The Doctor.
“Is that actually possible.” Rose leaned in to kiss him. “No-one could ever be better looking than you.” Said Rose with a huge smile on her face.
“Rose, we’re at yours.” Said Jackie
“Wow, very nice.” Said the Doctor, impressed.
“Not really, it’s nothing flash, besides you ain’t seen the inside yet, I bet it’s a complete tip, so I apologise in advance.” Said Rose getting out of the car.
“I’ll see ya later sweetheart.” Shouted Jackie from inside the car. “We’ll pop in later, is that ok?” asked Jackie.
“Yeah that’s fine mum, I’ll see ya later” said Rose, then turned to The Doctor who was now out of the car. ”Come on then.” Said Rose and walked towards the block of flats and grabbing The doctors hand, towing him along.
“This place is really nice.” Said The Doctor, browsing through Rose’s belongings.
“Oh, thanks.” Said Rose “Oh, I better check my messages; God knows how many I’ll have.” Rose walked over to her mobile phone and picked it up and read ’50 missed calls’ and ’20 messages’. ‘Great’ thought Rose. All of them were either from Ben or work.
“Everything alright” asked The Doctor when he saw the look on Rose’s face.
“Yeah, just gotta ring Ben, that alright?” asked Rose.
A hit of jealousy hit The Doctor and he thought ‘How close were these 2? Was he in love with her?’
“Yeah that’s fine, why wouldn’t it be?” said The Doctor trying to act surprised.
“No reason, I just wondered, anyway I’ll only be a minute.” Said Rose as she walked away with the phone to her ear.
Half an hour later Rose finally came off the phone.
“Sorry about that, had to explain everything.” Said Rose and when to sit down next to The Doctor. “He never normally gets worried when I go away for a while, guess he just thought I’d never come back.”
“Yeah well you are now, and you’ve got me!” beamed The Doctor.
“Yeah, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Beamed Rose back at The Doctor. “Forever right?” asked Rose.
“Forever, promise.” Said The Doctor as he planted a kiss on to Rose’s lips.
