Author's Note: Another one for the then_theres_us ficathon. This time filling a prompt by takethewords. For the purposes of this fic, Doomsday never happened.



As they walked through the quiet streets of the city Rose couldn’t help but wonder what the Doctor had planned. Today had been the most romantic day she could remember, they hadn’t run for their lives or toppled any corrupt governments. All they had done was eat chips, take in the scenery and walk along the banks of the river.

As the sky darkened the Doctor quickened his pace, almost dragging Rose off her feet as he marched to a nearby hillside. Rose almost melted when she saw the picnic basket and blanket nestled between a few bushes but instead she settle for a dazzling smile as the Doctor led her over to the blanket and sat her down before kneeling next to her. From their spot they had a view of the tall spires and cobbled streets of the city but Rose still didn’t know what was going on.

“Doctor, what’s all this about?”

The Doctor merely smiled and handed her a glass of wine. “Just a few more minutes Rose, you’ll see.”

A few more minutes passed and the two travellers were reluctant to break the silence of the night as they ate and drank. Suddenly a flash lit the sky and Rose gasped as the spires and cobbles were bathed in a thousand different colours. Reds, greens, pinks, even some that not even the greatest artist on Earth could have captured. The sky was alight and the colours danced between the stars and over the horizon.

“Happy anniversary Rose.” The Doctor grinned at his awestruck companion, lover. No, she wasn’t any of that. She was Rose, his Rose.

Rose managed to tear her gaze away from the fireworks to look deep into the Doctor’s eyes. “Happy anniversary Doctor.” She laughed and flung herself into his arms, toppling them over so she ended up sprawled half on his chest. “Best day ever.” She sighed in contentment and rolled to lie curled into his side with his arm wrapped around her. “Thank you, my Doctor.”

The Doctor felt his hearts flutter and he kissed her head before replying. “Anything for my Rose.”
