Waking up in a giant feather bed, I stretch my arms above my body and turn my head to look at the curving, studded walls around me. There's not a single window here, and while that might have bothered me just a few hours ago, I've come to completely accept where I am. Nathan would call me naive. He'd call me a puppy, blindly following any stranger that held his hand out to me.
Maybe that's true, but no one would believe me back home even if I told them where I was or what I was doing. Not even the people who know what I can do and what I'm capable of. I'm the dreamer, head in the clouds. Sometimes literally.
Things have not been so easy for me lately. I nearly blew up New York City. I lost my memory and my last girlfriend in a future that I subsequently erased from existence. I met my father, a man who I thought was dead for over a year, had him purge what made me special from my very soul, and watched him die. Luckily, the illicit serum he had been working on restored what I thought I'd lost, even if it did not save me from my current strained relationship with my family.
For the moment, though, that doesn't matter. I'm grinning as I climb out of bed, locate my shirt on the floor and head out into a circular promenade so large that I actually can't remember where the stairs are. This particular portion of my current homes makes the idea of a feather bed inside a little blue wooden box less strange.
But even that can't compare to the man I'm traveling with.
"Uh... Doctor!" Or that I can even be lost inside a six foot square shed.

"I am what I say I am. I'm the Doctor, Time Lord. The last of my kind."

I gaze into the Doctor's eyes. And my frown turns into a smile. "I understand you." And I do. My empathy lets me do that.

Date: 2010-02-19 03:10 am (UTC)"I understand you too" I whisper back to him, my grin staying along my handsome face.
And I do. I know what its like to be pushed away and on the run. It's what makes me who I am. I wouldn't change anything about it.

That's a strange feeling. One that I can quell with the banana bliss in front of me. My God, this name is absolutely correct. "This...this is amazing!"

Date: 2010-02-19 03:59 am (UTC)"Thank you" I beam as I reach over to take my own drink. I can't help but watch as Peter drinks his first. My eyes staying along him in order to take in his reaction. I then smirk as he agrees that the drink is indeed pure perfection.
"Told you so" I smirk.

Date: 2010-02-19 04:23 am (UTC)Thinking about all of the people who have never and will never try this drink, I'm actually pretty greatful for that. "Most humans would spend all day drinking this and doing nothing else," I say, the drink mellowing me. There's got to be some sort of drug in here, but my body regenerates and the feeling leaves only a few moments after it ignites inside of my mouth.
That's almost a shame.
"I think I might spend all day drinking this!" Secretly -- or not so much -- my fingers brush his. I guess there's really no denying it. I'm attracted to him in all ways possible. I've managed, for most of my life, to keep my tendancies towards women only after Nathan found out about a magazine with naked men in it I kept under my bed as a teenager. He beat the queer out of me for that. And since then... I've only looked. And only looked once. I can't keep my eyes, or hands, from the Doctor for long.

Date: 2010-02-19 04:35 am (UTC)I watch as that excotic look seems to take over Peter's eyes. Those large eyes are sparkling back at me and I feel a small shiver rush down my spine as I lick the creame from my upper lip. Moaning happily as I do so.
"Mmm brilliant" I grin before laughing at Peter. "And miss all of this exploring?" I tease him. My eyes falling along him once again.

Date: 2010-02-19 07:29 am (UTC)Each bite makes me moan and I have to keep covering up my mouth before I am much too loud. Blushing, cheeks a bright red at nearly every occasion, I finally burst out in honest laughter.
"You knew this would happen," I merrily accuse the Doctor, more glee in my eyes than there should be.

Date: 2010-02-20 07:35 am (UTC)"Maybe" I grin back at him. Giving him a little wink as I do so.
"Told you it was a wonderful drink, yeah?"

Date: 2010-02-20 10:01 pm (UTC)I think I'm going to cry when I bite into the meal. It's a strangely emotional experience, just as the bliss had been. I feel like I matter just taking a bite. I feel like I belong. Everything is amplified because of my powers, though, and I groan a little and push the plate away.
My face is wet. I've been crying after all.

Date: 2010-02-22 06:53 am (UTC)Soft moans and groans leave me as well. It wasn't long until both of us were pushing our plates away, stomachs full of the most wonderful of food.
"Now that was a meal" I grin.

Date: 2010-02-22 01:42 pm (UTC)There's a comfortable silence for several long minutes before I finally am capable of lifting my head again. My eyes are bright, but not with tears.
"I want to go flying," I say, mirth in my voice. "Let's go see how the weather's like!"

Date: 2010-02-26 03:32 am (UTC)"I can promise you that the weather is beyond beautiful this time of year" I smile at him, giving him a tug towards the balcony so he can look out at the beautiful sky.
"It's perfect."

Date: 2010-02-26 04:03 am (UTC)There's a big patch of sky where no one's at and I wrap my arms around the Doctor's waist and, after bending my knees, take off in a huff of smoke into the air.
I'm laughing. I can hear him laughing. It's brilliant. And wonderful.
And beautiful.
"This is awesome!"

Date: 2010-02-26 05:15 am (UTC)"I knew you would love it" I call back to him. Flashing him a huge grin as we fly so beautiful along this wonderful planet.
