The trio headed back to the street outside the police station to see a gathering of people all talking animately. Tommy and Rose scanned the crowd while the Doctor tried his hardest to not seem like he was looking for anyone, let alone Danni.

"Gran!" Tommy exclaimed as he ran towards his grandmother, who held her arms out wide for him. They hugged tightly and Rose smiled slightly before it turned into a full-blown beam.

"Danni!" She shouted. He followed her as she ran towards the red-head, who met her halfway and hugged her tightly. He frowned slightly as Rose lifted the girl off her feet, only being able to spin her around given her small stature. Why on Earth did she not have any shoes on?

"Oh, look at you." Rose was saying as he reached them, holding Danni out at arms length before pulling her back in for a hug, "I didn't think I'd see your face again. Are you okay?" Danni nodded with a laugh.

"Of course I'm okay. With Rose Tyler on the case, I was always going to be fine." Rose finally let go of her and Danni straightened her dress out, "I can't even remember what happened. I hope your head's okay." Rose frowned.

"My head?" She inquired.

"Because I pushed you over?" Danni clarified.

"Oh! Yes, I'm fine." They stood in silence for a moment until Danni looked up at the Doctor, smiling shyly.

"Thanks for saving me." She told him cautiously, not really knowing how he was going to react. She expected a large rant about her getting into trouble when he had better things to do with his time, that he was supposed to be taking Rose to see Elvis instead of gallivanting around after her. So, she was very surprised when he cleared his throat and looked around the crowd, purposefully not looking at the pair.

"Yeah, well. Don't do it again." He told her and she blinked in shock. Rose beamed, he finally seemed to be accepting her, "And, I have to ask, why aren't you wearing shoes?"

~0~0~0~

The street party had been amazing. Rose had spent a large portion of the journey back to Florizel street trying to convince them to go to the Mall, where the official street party was happening, but when Danni had declared she wanted to be at a proper street party she had relented. The Doctor had even argued a case in favour of staying with Tommy and his family, when previously he would have gone to the Mall just to spite her. He had also tried to convince her to go put some shoes on with the TARDIS being just around the corner, but Danni never really did like wearing shoes. She had been disappointed as, when they finally did head back to the TARDIS, her arm started with it's familiar burn.

That didn't last long, however, because as soon as she landed she found herself being pressed against the wall by Eleven, lips locked passionately as he pushed her against the wall. She gasped in surprise, she hadn't expected him to be on her, and so quickly as well. He used her surprise to his advantage, his tongue dominating her mouth as his hand ran up her thigh, bunching her dress in his hand and grasping it tightly. She leant back as far as she could, whacking her head slightly on the TARDIS wall.

"Doctor... What..." She panted out but he interrupted her, kissing her again.

"Please." Was all he said in reply, his other hand forcing it's way around her back, undoing the zip holding the dress together. She froze as her eyes widened, the implications of his words freezing the blood in her veins. He moved to her neck, drawing a surprised moan from her lips as he suckled on the flesh there, teeth nipping and tongue soothing. He wanted to have... and she hadn't...

"Doctor, wait." She told him as firmly as possible as he tugged her dress down, it gathering around her bare feet. He pulled back, looking at her confused. His eyes widened in realisation.

"Oh god, you're the wrong Danni." He breathed. He jumped back, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Here, let me..." He bent down and scrambled on the floor as he tried to grab her dress. She grabbed his shoulders, forcing him to stop and look up at her.

"Stop it!" She commanded and he stood up slowly, staring at her, looking lost, "Just, stop for a moment." She repeated, gently, "What's wrong?"

"Amy and Rory left." He eventually replied, "They had to. I had to save them, but..." She nodded slowly, understanding perfectly. She stroked his hair gently and he leant into her touch, closing his eyes. A tear fell from under his thick lashes as she gasped, her heart breaking slightly for him.

"Oh, my poor Theta." She whispered, not meaning to say anything out loud. She leant up and placed a kiss on his lips. He reached out and grasped her bare arms, his fingers digging into her almost painfully. His kiss was desperate, but restrained. As if he wanted to let go, but knowing he couldn't. She reached out and touched his chest, feeling the four beats under her hand. She, slowly, began undoing the buttons on his shirt and he pulled back.

"Danni, don't..." He tried to reassure her, not wanting her to feel pressured but she shook her head, shushing him gently. She pushed her hands underneath, trailing over his chest. His breath hitched at her touched, his muscles twitching and she felt a surge of empowerment coursing through her. She stepped out of the dress pooled at her feet and leant forward, placing a kiss in the centre of his chest, between his two hearts. His eyes burnt into hers when she looked up at him. All of her breath left her lungs and she took an unsteady breath in, swallowing.

"I don't want to do this here." She told him and his eyes widened slightly, the connotation of her words falling thick in the air. She blushed when he didn't say anything, and looked away, feeling rejected. Stupid girl, he's going to...

"Come on." He told her huskily, grabbing her hand and dragging her through the hallways.
