Summary: ” He cradled the child’s tiny head in the palm of his hand”

Author’s Note: I found this on my hard drive, and I rather like this scene. It falls into my Barcelona ‘verse, so some time after Through the Glass.


He cradled the child’s tiny head in the palm of his hand as he looked into the startling blue eyes staring up at him so brightly. Small fragile lips slowly curled into a gentle smile and the tingling presence in the back of his head grew ever stronger with each rise and fall of the tiny ribcage. That was first time he would see this face, but in those few short moments, he knew what he had already known. He would lay down his life for the child in his hands.

“I want to see my Sean,” Rose whispered from the bed. Her voice was tired, but still had a stubborn strength about it.

Obediently, the Doctor placed the newly born infant into his mother’s arms. She ran an exhausted finger down the curve of the little cheek and across the minute bridge of a nose. She smiled a proud defiant smile.

“He has his eyes.”

Feeling resolutely stupid for being jealous of the fact his fourth child bore next to no resemblance to this incarnation and distinctly looked very much like his former self, he nodded. If he could get over the fact the one before looked more like Rose’s father, but with a personality akin to Jackie, he could stand that this one looked like his ninth self, actually he might love him for it.

“Where are Alan and the girls?”

“Playing. They’ve introduced themselves to the children of the house.” He smiled softly and reached out to stroke his wife’s cheek. “I’m so sorry.”

“It’s alright,” Rose breathed. “I just would have preferred some time later than 1789.”

The Doctor laughed. “Yeah. I really am sorry. I did try this time.”

She laughed lightly, shaking her head.

“I suppose all our children are destined to be born in borrowed bedrooms.”

“Well, it’s always best to follow tradition,” he agreed with that smile that always made her go weak at the knees.

Still smiling, Rose settled back into the pillows and sleepily gazed into her baby’s startlingly blue eyes, until he squeezed them shut as he yawned. The mattress moved as the Doctor settled down beside her, obviously about to urge her to give into much needed sleep.

Handing their newest addition back to him, she curled up beside him, head on his shoulder, and closed her eyes.

Heee, I love that he's jealous of the way Sean looks, I don't blame him. But seriously Doc, 1789, come on!

I forget if this is a baby-verse where human drugs mess up Time Lord babies. But if not, Rose would be in her rights to about murder him for landing her in an era without epidurals. :-p

Cute fic!
