Chapter 13 - 'She's Mine...'

Doctors PoV

'How many times do I have to tell you Doctor. Use the front door' Kate said when a bunch of unit soldiers came at me and tried to shoot.

'You shoot and you kill the man in demand here' I said jumping out of my Tardis and securely locking the door.

'I don't know what a front door is. Anyway. I'm here to see Osgood' I said.

'This way then' she said leading me towards the labs. Not to much to my surprise Osgood was at her desk wearing her scarf and glasses analysing some DNA.

'Osgood. It's the Doctor here to see you' Kate said and she turned around to look at me inhaling deeply that I was really here.

'Your here to see me?' She asked shocked.

'Yep. Need you to analyse se DNA for me' I said and handed her the pink hat.

'How do I analyse a hat?' She asked. 'Look I can't get a scan, the only DNA I have at the moment is her hair' I complained.

Kate thankfully had left the room.

'This has to be a secret until I work out what all this is... But you remember Clara yes?' I asked and she nodded.

'Small, brown hair, feisty that's the one' I said and she laughed a bit.

'Look I left and didn't know she was pregnant. I need you to look for Time Lord traces on the hair. Once I have enough evidence for Clara I can get a blood sample' I said and she gawped.

'She's your daughter?' She asked. 'That's what Clara says but I can't be sure. She doesn't even have two hearts' I said.

'Oh' was all she said, but took the hat out of my hand.

'Have you held her, because I might be able to get some more DNA off you' she said and I shrugged my jacket and waist coat off handing them over to her.

She immediately started collecting hair off the clothes testing each and every one of them.

'Have you got any of Clara? She asked. 'I spent the night at her flat so there must be some on my jacket' I said and she nodded in agreement, pulling a few hairs from my head.

'Ow' I complained and rubbed my head.

I grabbed her hand when we left and headed out, it was actually December 2nd right now, so she was wearing leggings and a shirt, preferable for the brisk London weather and we headed to the restaurant that I had booked.

It wasn't an expensive one, it was just a nice one. I didn't want to upstage her too much, because I know exactly how she thinks.

'Well this is all a bit spontaneous. What's this all about?' She asked.

'Dunno. Worked here once. Thought I'd try it out' I said to her making it a lighter mood.

'Really. You had a job?' She smirked. 'Yes. I've had many a job. In fact I have a job right now!' I added and she laughed.

'Whys that so funny?' I asked again.

'You don't have a job' she said and I glared. 'I do really. I work at unit' I said. 'On the pay roll and everything' I said quite smug.

'What's Unit?' She asked back. Good I'd been waiting for that question.

'United nations intelligence task force' I said and she looked at me as if I was mad. 'It's a unit that specialise in hunting down aliens and enemies. I help when I can' I said smug.

I led her towards a booth then, and we sat there talking for ages.

I wanted this to be a date, but she probably wasn't even thinking about things like that which is why I hadn't acted on anything.

I was trying but I just don't know how she is. And I'm not exactly good with emotion and showing feelings. I don't want to scare her off.

I want to be friends if nothing else. 'It's the funny things you say that I love about you' I said and her face changed.

Crap, I said that out loud.

'Sorry, where were we?' I asked embarrassed and started slyly sipping my drink to get away from the awkward moment.

'You what? Did you just say-?' I cut her off.

'Could we just forget I said that?' I asked embarrassed.

'I don't want too' she said after a moments deliberation.

'I'm confused' I said hoping she was going to help me out. She did and slid closer too me, on the seat.

'I don't want to forget... Because I like you too' she said to me and my hearts began to pick up the pace in my chest.

'Really?' I asked stuttering, sarcastically... This couldn't be true. 'Since the day I met you chin boy' she said and placed her hand on my knee. I really wished she hadn't because just her touch might do something to me.

Damn that brown twinkle. I wasn't sure what to do, but I suddenly could see that the gap between us was getting smaller, because she had leant up and started to kiss me.

Now admittedly we had had a few drinks. But nowhere near enough for her to not know what she's doing.

I didn't not kiss back because I've been waiting for this for centuries. It's like something instantly clicked.

She placed her lips on mine and I leant down to make it easier for her. I wasn't sure where to put my hands for a while but then I found it best to hold her face, while she set an eager rhythm to the kiss.

She helped me out though, by moving my hands and placing them on her hips, so she could move closer to me. (I'm not very good at this kind of thing).

She tasted so sweet, like strawberries and lemons. She definitely was wearing some kind of lip gloss.

She took the approach to run her hand up and down my leg, whilst I moved one of my hands and pulled her closer to me.

This was something I've always wanted to do. Hold her tight and not let her go.

The kiss continued comfortably for a further few minutes until it stopped being so sweet and started to become rough.

This was the point where we both needed to desperately breathe, but I didn't want to let her go.

Not for one moment.

The attraction right now, was one that can't be missed. So I ran my tongue across her bottom lip, as we let briefly go, hoping I didn't take it to far.

I heard a sound come from her that I've been desperate for. She allowed me entrance to her mouth and moaned back into the kiss.

My hearts were doing back flips and front flips kissing her but I was nervous of what comes next. I've blown up planets and never been nervous.

I didn't want to suggest anything, but she started it.

'Time Lord. It couldn't be any more obvious there' she said pointing at the screen.

'How?' I asked. 'Well you know how Doctor. There really is only one way. Presumably you slept with Clara' she said.

'More than once' I sighed. I could see it too. On the screen. It couldn't have been any more clear on the screen.

'She wasn't conceived on the Tardis though. Do you think that's why she doesn't have two hearts?' I asked.

'It's fascinating really. I'd love to meet her' she said. 'I'd love to show you her, but I need to build trust in Clara again. I left her to go through all this on her own and she doesn't deserve that.' I said.

She understood everything and all my reasonings. I couldn't and can't betray the final piece of trust in Clara.

'Clara cannot find out I've been here. If she does she'll freak, and I'll never get to see Autumn' I said and pouted.

'It's alright we'll have to keep this secret from Kate for a bit, because if she finds out, she really will freak' Osgood said and I knew she was definitely right.

I thanked Osgood for all her help and she handed me all the files because I wanted to do some more investigating.

Now I know that Autumn is defiantly my daughter, perhaps I can help a bit more, and make a contribution.

After all... It has only been 4 days for me... And I still love her. As in head over heels for Clara. So I headed back to her flat.
