☆ Alone In this World ☆

☆ The Caretaker ☆

Two suns are shown brightly in the sky.

The Doctor and {Y/n} were both chained up together in the middle of a deserted island, sitting back-to-back. Both were sweating a tremendous amount and silently hoping for a miracle to happen, as all they could do was sit and do nothing.

The Doctor had both chains around his wrists above his head, while {Y/n} only had one of her wrists chained. Why was a question even she asked herself.

"We're going to die here, aren't we? Roasted to death," {Y/n} said, scrunching her eyes shut and laying her head back onto the metal pole in defeat.

"Don't be stupid. The sandpiranahs will get to us first," The Doctor said, making her head snap over to him in fear.

"Sand, what now?!"

"Nothing. Help me find the Vibro-cutters," he said, pointing his head towards himself.

"And how am I supposed to do that?" She asked, looking around helplessly for another way of escaping.

"Could you not argue with me on this right now and just move towards me some more," The Doctor said, on the verge of losing all hope.

She looked off in guilt but then noticed that if she were to move any closer to him, she would end up having to sit on his lap.

"Are you sure that you-"

The emotionless look he gave sent shivers down her spine. Afraid to say anything else, she began shuffling closer to him.

She hiked herself up onto his lap with the chains still wrapped around her wrist. When her weight was fully on him, he cried out in shock.

"What? Did I hurt something?" She blurted out in worry.

"No, I'm fine, just get me the Vibro-cutters!" He exclaimed.

She glanced down into his lap and cleared her throat.

"Ok, now what?" She asked. The Doctor also looks down and gulps from the lack of hydration.

"Em, check in that pocket," he said, making her do so. She reached her unchained hand into his pocket but found nothing but a ruffled old piece of paper.

"Nothing in it," she says.

"Then try the other one!" The Doctor yelled, making her jump a little.

"Don't raise your voice at me for god's sake. We're both in the same bloody situation here!" She sighs.

"Pudding brain," He mutters, causing her to glare up at him through the corner of her eyes. She reached inside his other pocket and felt something hard brush against her fingers.

"I think I've got it!" She exclaimed, trying to pull it out, but at the same time, the Doctor yelled out in pain.

"That isn't the Vibro cutters!" The Doctor pants.

"Then what is it-" When the realisation kicked in, she slowly began to feel her face heating up from the embarrassment. She quickly pulls away from him and apologises.

"You know, I've suddenly had a change of heart. Getting eaten by sandpiranahs doesn't sound all that bad..." She frowns.

☆ Time skip ☆

{Y/n} grabs her jacket and heads out of her room to the door as she is meeting up with Samuel for coffee.

Just as she was about to leave, she spotted the TARDIS doors illuminating out into her hallway and walked over to it to see the Doctor.

"Fish people," he says, a wide grin showing on his face.

"What're they like?" She questioned, quirking up a brow.
