A/N: Merry Christmaskathiann hope this story is exactly what you wished for and that the New Year will bring you much joy
A/N: Many thanks tobas_math_girlor her beta skills to make this gift wonderful.
Donna walked around the console, of the TARDIS, with purple tinsel trailing behind her. She looped the shiny string in and out of the rails, which surrounded the heart of the TARDIS. The Doctor looked on amazed, that Donna was even decorating at all, but also wondered where she found the decorations.
“I thought you didn’t like Christmas, Donna?” the Doctor asked with a soft smile.
“Well spaceman, after all the things we have seen and done, I have a new appreciation for Earth Holidays,” Donna replied as she finished looping the last bit of purple tinsel on the metal rails.
Grabbing a green piece of tinsel she started to retrace her steps causing an intricate design of purple and green throughout the TARDIS.
Stopping in front of the Doctor, she rose to on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. “Do you think we can get a Christmas tree and a yule log?”
Smiling down at her the Doctor ran his hands through his hair, “Wellll the TARDIS could use a refilling and I think we can stop off in Cardiff for a bit then do some shopping.”
Jumping up and down on the balls of her feet, Donna looped a bit of green tinsel around the Doctor’s neck, “I think that is a great plan, I also need to pick up some gifts for Mum and Gramps.”
Running off down the corridor Donna called back, “Give me thirty minutes to shower and change”
Shaking his head in amazement, the Doctor to move the switches and knobs for a landing in Cardiff it was moments like this afternoon that he saw the most change in Donna. A few months back she would have never considered doing anything for Christmas, and decorating for the holidays, well, would have been out of the question. Pulling the activation switch he started the landing sequence.
The Doctor was pacing the TARDIS, looking at his watch periodically, wondering where Donna was it had almost been twenty minutes since his ship landed in Cardiff. He was about to call for his companion, when Donna emerged wearing a black skirt with a Christmas red shirt and knee high boots, her appearance took his breath away.
“Okay, I am ready for some shopping,” Donna stated as she strutted up to the Doctor.
Her beauty overwhelmed him, and he resisted the urge to run his fingers through her softly scented hair. Her beauty left him speechless, instead of speaking he held out the crook of his arm for her.
Donna smiled up at him as she weaved her arm through his. Come on handsome, let us go into town.”
They walked out of the TARDIS, with large smiles planted on their faces, but as soon as they were out the doors, the Doctor’s smile faded as he saw Jack Harkness leaning against the doorway of his ship.
“It is about time Doc, I thought you would never come out.” Jack stated as he eyed Donna, “Now who do we have here?”
Bending down, Jack lifted Donna’s other hand and kissed it softly. “I don’t know how you do it Doctor, but you have the most beautiful companions that I have ever met. My name is Captain Jack Harkness, so what is yours, my ginger goddess?”
Donna blushed at the compliment, wondering how such a handsome man knew the Doctor. “My name is Donna.”
With a wink Jack spoke seductively, “Well, Donna it is your lucky day. I am at your service. Let me guess you are off to do some Christmas shopping.”
Unweaving her arm from the Doctor’s, Donna took a hold of Jack’s arm and flirted, “I have never been served by such a handsome man, and yes we are off to do some shopping. Would you care to help me with my purchases?”
The Doctor just rolled his eyes, and demanded, “Stop it, Jack.”
The American placed his other arm around the Doctor. “Are you jealous, because you know I am always willing to assist you as well?”
Smiling, the Doctor replied, “You still haven’t bought me that drink, so I am going to have to pass on your generous assistance.”
Chuckling, Jack replied, “I can buy you that drink now if you like.”
Shrugging off Jack’s arm, the Doctor grabbed Donna’s arm, and called back as he led his companion away from the handsome captain, “Sorry Jack, but other matters are more pressing then that drink.”
Donna just smiled. It was the first time she had ever seen the Doctor flustered with another male around. Wanting to have Jack tag along too, she grabbed Jack’s arm as well. “Now gentleman, I don’t see any reason why you both can’t assist me in my shopping. Time is a wasting, let us go.”
The two men looked at each other over Donna’s head, shrugging their shoulders; they walked with her into the heart of the city for some Christmas shopping.
Five hours and eight stores later the Doctor, Donna, and Jack, heaven laden with Donna’s purchases, settled in a little known tea shop for a mid-afternoon snack.
Smiling sweetly at the Doctor, Donna asked, “Could you go and get us some tea and cakes please?”
Reluctantly, the Doctor stood and went to the counter to purchase their tea. As soon as he was out of sight Jack leaned closer to Donna.
“I was wondering if you would like to join me for a Christmas party later this evening.” Jack asked as he brought his lips closer to Donna’s ear.
“I am not sure, Jack; I think the Doctor would like to be off, as soon as the TARDIS is refueled!” Donna exclaimed.
Rubbing her exposed arm Jack purred, “Well, I am sure that if you asked him nicely he would stick around so you can have a bit of fun.”
Just at that moment the Doctor returned with their tea and cakes. “No Jack, we need to be off. I promised Donna that I would show her the celestial lights of Aurora Ten. If we don’t get there in enough time we will miss them.”
Donna turned toward the Doctor. “Don’t you have a time machine at your fingertips, so it really doesn’t matter when we leave? ”
“Yes, Donna but we have to be punctual if we want to see the lights,” the Doctor responded, desperate to get Donna away from Jack.
Donna rolled her eyes. “But, you have a time machine.”
Feeling a bit frustrated, the Doctor responded, “This time punctuality is important, Donna.”
Jack raised his hands in defeat. “I know when I am supposed to recede.” Turning toward Donna he continued, “Maybe you can join me next Christmas.”
Her irritation level increasing, Donna exclaimed, “Listen Doctor, I want to join Jack and go to his Christmas party this year and if you want to leave me in Cardiff then so be it.”
“But, Donna the lights are more beautiful than you can imagine,” the Doctor whined, feeling his heart drop.
“My decision is made. I will join Jack tonight at his Christmas party! ” Donna exclaimed, wondering why the Doctor was so adamant for her to join him on Aurora Ten.
Jack listened to the argument between the Doctor and Donna and wondered if there was more going on than either them realized.
Donna faced Jack. “So, what time are you picking me up, handsome?”
Glancing hesitantly at the Donna, Jack replied, “How about 1900 and it is a formal thing.”
“Brilliant! I will see you then.” Donna grabbed a cake, “Come on Doctor, hurry up and drink your tea. I need to get ready.”
The Doctor reached for his tea and forcibly took a sip, trying desperately to calm the inner voice, telling him that he had lost his chance to tell Donna how much she means to him.
Later as the trio arrived back at the TARDIS, Donna turned toward Jack. “It was nice to meet you, and I will see you tonight.”
Before the Doctor could follow Donna in, Jack grabbed his arm. “Are you sure that it is okay that Donna joins me tonight?”
With a sad look the Time Lord nodded, “It is okay Jack, just please take care of her.”
“I will, I promise Doc.”
Turning his back on the immortal, he entered his ship and closed the doors. He contemplated taking Donna away without her knowing, but knew if he did Donna would be cross. Sighing, he walked across the console and into the kitchen to brew up a cup of tea.
Entering, he was surprised to see Donna sitting at the table pouring him a cup of tea. “What is going on with you?”
“Nothing, Donna, everything is just fine.”
“Don’t lie to me spaceman, I have known you long enough to know when something is wrong!” She exclaimed as she crossed her arms.
Sitting heavily into the chair, he put two sugars within his tea. “Listen Donna, trust me there is nothing wrong.”
Grabbing her cup, Donna left the room. “I thought we did trust each other.”
Pushing his cup away, the Doctor leaned back in his chair sighing. He was about to leave when a small bit of mistletoe, on the table, caught his eye. Smiling to himself, he grabbed the small plant; maybe there was still time to tell Donna how he felt.
Pulling out his phone he dialled; he breathed a sigh of relief when the other line was answered. “Jack, I need your help.”
Donna opened the door to her room and forcibly shut it; sitting on her bed she started to cry. She thought that she and Doctor’s friendship had evolved enough, that trust would not be an issue anymore.
Wiping her eyes, she headed into the en suite to get ready for the Christmas party, and the handsome man who was picking her up in a few hours. And no one, or even the Doctor, was going to ruin her evening; she just wished that the Doctor was escorting her, instead of Jack.
The Doctor adjusted the lapel of his tuxedo, next to the Christmas tree that he purchased and decorated while Donna was getting ready. Thank goodness he had Jack’s help; otherwise he would not have been able to do it on time and it was his idea to hang the mistletoe near the front door.
The Doctor called out, “Lights at seventy five per cent.” Once the lights had dimmed he plugged in the Christmas tree lights. A soft white glow illuminated the room from the Christmas tree.
Bending down, he adjusted the lower strand on lights when he heard Donna gasp; standing up he looked at his companion and whistled.
Donna was dressed in a full length white gown, adorned by amethyst teardrop crystals s starting at the rounded neckline and continuing down the length of the dress. Her hair was pulled up and soft tentacles of hair trailed down her neck. A pair of purple heels finished the outfit perfectly.
“Oh my, the tree is beautiful,” Donna stated as she walked around the tree admiring the ornaments. Returning to the front she pulled the Doctor into a hug.
Pulling back, the Doctor smiled down at Donna. “Yes, the tree is beautiful; but not as beautiful as you.”
“Get off, Doctor.”
“No Donna, I will not, you are so beautiful, and I am so sorry I haven’t told you before tonight.”
Looking at him, a slight glistening of tears pooled in her eyes. “What are you saying, Doctor?”
Bringing his hands up, he cradled her face. “What I am saying Donna, is that I think you are the most wonderful, beautiful, glorious woman that I have ever met.”
Kissing the palm of his hand, Donna smiled. “It is about time you said something.”
“Well you know, even though I am a Time Lord, my timing can be off.”
“Don’t I know it, spaceman.” She giggled as she placed a hand on his cheek, and then pulled away. “Oh, what are we going to do about Jack?”
Rubbing his hand through his hair, the Doctor replied, “I hope you don’t mind but I called him and asked him if it would be okay if I brought you to the party.”
Rolling her eyes, Donna shook her head. “No, Doctor I don’t mind, but next time can you ask me first.”
“Of course.” Holding his arm out to her he smiled. “Shall we go?”
“Yes, we should,” Donna replied.
Leading her to the door the Doctor stopped suddenly; facing Donna, he pointed his finger toward the ceiling. “I think it is a tradition for people to kiss under the mistletoe.”
“Yes, it is Doctor, so you better get to it. I really don’t want to be late for the party.”
“Yes ma’am!!!” He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close to him, bending down he kissed her lips tentatively, then more passionately, as he felt her hands move up his back and into his hair.
Donna pulled away first. “Now that is what I call a kiss!!”
Bringing his head close to her ear, he whispered, “There is a lot more kisses to come. Merry Christmas, Donna.”
“Merry Christmas, Doctor!” she breathed softly in his ear.
