Sunday Evening

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

((CJ makes her way though the park after dinner, on her way to the TARDIS where she had drinks with the Doctor last night. An evening stroll is on the agenda, and CJ clearly has a spring in her step as she leaves her house for this evening constitutional))

[As CJ approaches, the Doctor sticks his head out the door of the TARDIS. His smile is genuine, and he waves to her, exiting in jeans and a jacket (http://hclairezone.tripod.com/david/164.jpg). The night might be cool.]

*CJ smiles and retuns the wave. She's carrying a denim jacket, but arrives in a simple shirt and jeans (http://pics.livejournal.com/frogmajick/pic/0001ck73/) *

Hello Doctor.

*Her smile radiates her happiness at seeing him yet again*

How are you? [cheerfully makes as if to give her a half hug, but is a bit awkward, not sure if she wants it]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

*Used to greeting people with hugs rather than handshakes, she reverts to diplomatic affection and presses her cheek to his and kisses the air while hugging *

I'm doing great *she replies as she pulls away*

I had a wonderful day, and now a wonderful evening.

*smiles, but looks down, wondering if he'll think she's suddenly too forward*

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[blushes] Me too. Would you like to walk? [offers his arm]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I'd love to. *Takes his arm*

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[walks with her, slowly, at a loss for conversation, nervous]

[finally] You said you spoke with someone else about...the student issue?

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Mmm? Oh, yes. I ran into Sara Sidle, another teacher, at the coffee place after Mass. She and I talked about that tape. It seems she used to be a crime scene investigator in Las Vegas, and lives in the dorms. She has met this Angelus and says there isn't much we can do unless he actively tries something. However, she agrees that with so many students from so many places, that some of them are definitely dangerous. She actually suggested I begin carrying a gun, haha. Can you imagine?

She seems like someone we could trust, though. What do you think?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[thinks, considers his words] Ms Sidle...is very talented. I know Doctor Grissom thinks she has a lot of skill. I do believe that she jumps slightly to conclusions, but I think she is inherently trustable.

[grins at her] After 900 years, I'd like to think I have fairly good judgment.

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Hmm, one would hope.

*Breathes deeply, and looks off in the distance*

Isn't the sunset beautiful?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Quite. But the company is equally lovely. [puts a hand on her shoulder]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Oh, um, thank you.

*Presses her cheek to his hand*

*Looks into his eyes, blushes*

Doctor, I...

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[concerned] Yes? I'm not...messing up, am I? It's been quite a while since I've done the...dating thing.

like, 700 years.

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

No, I mean, you're fine.

I'm just...how do you make me feel like I'm 16? I can't help but blush and stammer...you'd think I didn't know how to talk to people.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Er...[blushes himself] I don't know. I seem to intimidate people rather often, though. Or at least humans. [quirks mouth, thinking]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I'm not used to it. Not at all.

And intimidating isn't the word I'd use...intriguing, maybe...

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[smiles a little] Intriguing? I suppose. But everyone's intriguing if they allow themselves to be. [squeezes her hand]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

*Smiles* I suppose.

It's getting dark. Do you suppose we should head back? I swear last night on my way home I heard a howl and a scream, and considering the student situation...I don't know how safe it is after dark.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[nods, suddenly serious (http://hclairezone.tripod.com/david/3.jpg)] Right. [pause] Would you like me to walk you home, or would you like some tea first?

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Yes, let's have tea.

*intertwines her fingers in his as they hold hands*

I never got to see where you live. Really.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[truly happy smile, though slightly nervous] You should love the TARDIS. She's...unique.

...You know, CJ, you make me feel young, too.

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

*Laughs*
How young is young to you?

*smiles genuinely and rests her head on his shoulder, still chuckling to herself*

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[jokingly] Well, no less than 107... [grins at her]
