Chapter 5
River's POV
I wake up as soon as I feel the bed shift slightly. I don't show it though, and just snuggle back under the covers. I watch the Doctor dress, and then clear my throat. He turns around to look at me, and I give a sly smirk.
"Good morning sweetie." "Good morning. I'm going to go move the TARDIS." "Where to?"
He smiles, and, using my own comeback, says "Spoilers." He earns a shove.
"Ow! Listen, just change into something you can go out in public with, alright?" I nod reluctantly, and pull some clothes on. I'm walking to the control room when the TARDIS makes the "cool" noise. I really don't know why he insists on leaving the brakes on.
I go to the door and wait on him to come. He opens the door for me, and I walk out with him.
I look around. "Italy?" I guess. "Yes. But I'm taking you somewhere better when it's dark."
"Oh, acting bad doesn't suit you Doctor." I say. "River! That's not what I was talking about!"
I roll my eyes. "Okay. so what are we doing here then?" He grins. "Breakfast." We walk into a nearby restaurant. The line is long, so the Doctor pulls out his psychic paper and shows it to the hostess. "Right this way." she beckons, and we follow her to a table. "Here are the menus, and I'll be right back with complementary water." she says, then walks away.
We look at the menus for a bit when she returns. "Are you ready to order?" I nod. "Surprise me." The Doctor looks down at the menu again. "Oh, might as well surprise me too."
The girl nods, then walks away. "So, Doctor, ready to tell me where you are taking me tonight?" "No." he says cheerfully.
I huff. "At least a hint, yeah?" He smiles. "Well, it's on this planet." "Really? I thought you didn't like most human constructions." "It's not human made."
"Ok, fine, you win." I say, acting defeated. He grins. "Of course I do." He leans in for me to kiss him, but I just sit there. I know it's torturing him. That's the point.
He pouts. "River! It's our honey moon!" "Yes, and you refuse to tell me where we are going later!"
He sighs. "That's different. I can do that! But kissing me is like marriage law." "Really now?" "Yes." "In that case, sue me."
We are then interrupted by our food being set down in front of us. "Enjoy!" I hear the girl say.
Once we've eaten and the Doctor sets money on the table, we both stand up and walk to the TARDIS. He opens the door, and smacks my bum. I turn around and stick out my tongue.
He shuts the doors and then sticks his tongue out at me. He then moves towards me, most likely waiting on me to kiss him. I don't, but he does.
After finally releasing my face, he grins at me. "That's cheating!" "No it's not. You certainly didn't pull away." He says. I turn away from him.
"Ok, fine River. Let's go swimming, how's that?" "Alright. Fine. Just for a little while."
Doctor's POV
I go to our room to grab my swim trunks. They have the TARDIS going through the time vortex on them. Most definitely cool.
"Nice swimmies, dear." River says as she walks in the room. "Yes, thank you Pond. I'm going to the pool now. Don't wait up." "I'll be there in a moment."
I go to the pool and stick my feet in the water. "What's taking so long?" I yell. "Don't be so impatient!" she calls back. "Patience is for wimps!"
She walks in the room wearing a one piece. I try not to pout. "What's wrong, sweetie?" she smirks down at me.
"Nothing. I'm fine." I say. "Alright." She calls as she walks down the plank. Diving board. Whatever.
A splash hits me after she does a flip into the water.
After a few minutes, I give in and join her in the pool. And that's what we do until mid-afternoon, when we have to stop to get ready for the dinner I'm taking her to.
