Of Meteors and Monsoons ♦ with gaillfreys_last

Holidays couldn't last forever. Which probably explained why Donna was knee-deep in mud, soaking wet, freezing cold and three miles from the bleedin' TARDIS. Warm tropic suns, the Doctor had said. Glorious sunny beaches, he'd promised. The greatest meteor shower this side of the galaxy. Too bad they'd landed a decade too early in the middle of

"I told you to wear your coat," he mutters, trudging through the unearthly mud. He truly did want to go somewhere warm. His TARDIS had other feelings about the matter.

[noblexcompanion]

She is shivering as they walk. Each step is difficult, with the mud trying to steal her boots. Slurp. Slurp. She hates mud. Earth mud. Alien mud. All of it.

"You promised me meteor showers and beaches. Not mud, mud and more mud!"

"I put in the right coordinates. The TARDIS had other plans." He sighs. His trainers are mud and water logged. This is just plain boring. "Well, she probably wouldn't let us leave, until we help these people, so let's do our part and leave, yeah?"

"Who builds their village in the middle of a field where there is a monsoon season? Seriously. It's just... It makes no sense." Her fingers are numb and achy from dragging pieces of wood and furniture through the alien mud.

Donna makes her way to the kitchen to start on the tea for everyone. She still feels pretty useless, those poor people, losing everything.

"I think I have some kind of coffee urn somewhere in the kitchen. Would be good for this," he suggests, getting his old girl moving.

[noblexcompanion]

"Brilliant!" She searches the kitchen for it. Aha! Success. That makes the job of tea making so much easier. She hunts down the tea bags and some Styrofoam cups. And some plates for the biscuits.

"I think I might have nicked it from UNIT, during the seventies. I got quite addicted to coffee then," he chuckles.

[noblexcompanion]

And before too long all the tea and biscuits are gone, and the villagers are once again trudging off with their belongings to drier grounds. "I feel so helpless."

[gaillfreys_last]

"Why? You can't do everything to save the world...psh, I should talk," he chuckles. "We've done our part, I think."

[noblexcompanion]

"I suppose, still, feels like I should be doing more to help, y'know? I'm sorry, listen to me rambling on! Come here, hero. Give us a kiss!" She shot him a light smile.

[gaillfreys_last]

"You can vent some more. It isn't often that I hear the same thoughts in my head voiced aloud...at that subject," he says puckering up.

[noblexcompanion]

"Mmm. But we might run into my Mum and she might slap you or eat you or sommat," she teases, kissing along his jaw. "You know, since you kidnapped her daughter and seduced her and all..."

[gaillfreys_last]

"Oh, I'm sure Wilf will come to my defense," he laughs.

[noblexcompanion]

"Hiding behind an OAP? Shame on you, Doctor." She can't help it. Teasing comes naturally. So does kissing, so she kisses along his jaw lightly.

[gaillfreys_last]

"Man, you're randy, Donna. Fancy a quick shag before we get you home?" He laughs, kissing her in return.

[noblexcompanion]

Donna laughs, playfully trying to tug herself free, before leaning up a little to steal a kiss. "Innocent, me."

[gaillfreys_last]

"Oh you are, are you?" He says low into her ear. The Doctor proceeds to kiss her neck and behind said ear.

[noblexcompanion]

Donna purrs, followed by another laugh, wriggling more. "Mmhmm, right little angel, I am."

[gaillfreys_last]

"Uh huh..." he pushes down her shirt, to get to her collar bone; open mouthed kisses this time.
