Hey…ANOTHER "Doctor Who" story, my-oh-my. Actually, I'd like your opinion. Should I do THIS ONE, or the other one? You tell me. :D

Title: "Human Nature".

Summary: AU fic. Martha Jones and Rose Tyler are both in love with the same man: John Smith. But, John Smith has an extraordinary secret…a secret, not even he remembers. The only person who seems to know is John's friend, Donna Noble…10/Rose, one-sided 10/Martha, 10/Donna friendship.

Author's Notes: Yeah…this was kinda inspired by the 2 episodes in S3, Human Nature and Family of Blood. But I'm changing it just a bit –grins–. And yes, 10/Rose. Gotta love it!!

Disclaimer: Nothing is mine.

Human Nature

Chapter 1

"RUN FOR IT!!"

The Doctor and Donna Noble burst into the TARDIS, and Donna slammed the door shut just as the TARDIS lurched violently, throwing Donna sideways. The Doctor was cranking some levers on his console, and suddenly the TARDIS launched into flight rather bumpily. As soon as the flight levelled out, Donna ran to the Doctor's side. He was rushing around the console, pressing buttons and glaring at screens, muttering angrily.

"Doctor? What were those things?" Donna asked, quivering. The Doctor didn't answer; he turned to her and grabbed her by the shoulders, his hair sticking up in random directions after running his hand through it too many times.

"Did. They. See. You?" he demanded, slowly, as if speaking to a child.

"What?"
"Did they see you?" the Doctor growled, giving her a shake, "I've got to know! If they saw your face, then -- ow!"
The last word was because of Donna slapping the Doctor, hard. He clutched his cheek.

"What was that for??"
"You were getting slightly hysterical."
"And that's an excuse?"
"Yes. Look, I don't think they did see my face, but why does it matter?"
Again, the Doctor ignored her question and began running around the console.

"Great. They're chasing us," he muttered, before suddenly freezing in realisation, "I'm gonna have to…oh, God,"
"What?"

"Well…these things can follow us anywhere! They've latched onto us."

He then produced a fob watch, and held it up.

"Listen, Donna, and for once in your life, please shut up for a moment. This watch…is our last hope. This watch is—"

"Rise and shine, sunshine!"

John Smith woke up to the feeling of his friend and roommate Donna Noble shaking him. He groaned and sat up, and saw Donna absentmindedly flicking through on of his books.

"Morning," he muttered groggily.

"Here. Paper," she smiled, handing the newspaper to him. He took it and looked at the front page, or more specifically, the date.

"10th June 2008," he muttered, smiling slightly.

"Yeah. Why?"
John rubbed his eyes, "I had this…really weird dream. You and I time-travelled to the year 3081, and we were battling aliens and such."
John looked up after a moment, looking at Donna who seemed quite pensive. Upon seeing him, she let out a loud laugh and shook her head.

"You are a right day-dreamer. Get up, then, we're gonna be late for work."
John smiled as she left. John had moved into this apartment three months ago, and began working at the pub down the road. Donna had started only days after, and had casually mentioned she had no place to live. He needed a roommate to help with rent. She needed a house. Ergo, living together.

He glanced at the clock. 11:58AM. He was gonna be late to work.

He quickly got dressed and walked into the living room to see Donna holding out a cup of coffee to go for him.

"C'mon,"

As they left the apartment and began to walk out of the building, John began telling her some more about his dream.

"You see, Donna, I was this time-travelling alien – I was a Time Lord or something -, and I had two hearts!"
Donna snorted and said sarcastically, "Really? Was I the Queen of Sheba? Did I have twenty limbs?"
"No. You were human, like…you were like my companion."
"I resent that." Donna laughed, "And, you can't be an alien, can you?"
"Nope," John grinned, holding open the door to The Queen's pub open for her, "I'm completely human."

Okay, not a particularly interesting start, and I know it seems a lot like the episodes but I haven't had a chance to modify it a bit yet! :D

Review!
