"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Aaaaaleeeeex! Happy birthday to you!" the Doctor and Amy sang, as the Doctor staggered under the weight of a huge cake in the shape of the TARDIS.
"Happy first birthday sweetheart!" the Doctor grinned as he placed the cake in front of Alex.
She puffed a tiny breath out that immediately put out the candle - "They're weather sensitive - the slightest wind and they go out, perfect for babies!" the Doctor had whispered to Amy - and then smashed her face into the cake.
"Typical! She's just like you!" Amy said, exasperated at her laughing daughter's blue face.
"Never mind, eh! No harm done!" the Doctor beamed and, sure enough, the part of the cake that had been eaten by Alex had grown back!
"Undamagable cake! If it's cut properly and dished out, it'll stay gone but if it's dropped on the floor or damaged in any way, it grows back! Great isn't it?" he said, ecstatic.
"You bought a live cake?" Amy said incredulously, cutting generous slices for her and the Doctor (Alex was fine with licking the icing off her eyebrows).
"Not live, just, sort of like yeast really. Except it grows back and it doesn't need heat." he explained, filling his mouth with cake.
"Right. Where did you get this exactly?" Amy asked.
"Year 5024." the Doctor's voice was muffled from the cake in his mouth.
"Where from then?" Amy said.
"M&S." the Doctor said.
"They make TARDIS cakes at M&S?" Amy said, in disbelief.
"No, I baked this! Just got the ingredients from there!" the Doctor said proudly.
"It was a packet mix wasn't it?" Amy said slyly.
"No!... Well, yeah, but I made it this shape, mixed the ingredients and did the icing!" he protested.
"This is not just a cake, this is a futeristic blue alive M&S cake!" Amy joked.
Chuckling, Amy cleared the Doctor's and her plate from the table, dragged the towering cake away from Alex's sticky hands and put them both on the kitchen counter.
"Alekazam!" Amy pointed at the dishes and they were instantly clean (except the cake, which now resided at the top of a cupboard, away from Alex and the Doctor's wandering hands).
"I love doing that!" Amy giggled, patting the TARDIS wall as a thank you.
"I don't! It takes up excess power, the TARDIS has to refuel after a certain number of times!" the Doctor complained crossly, and he fell from his chair as the TARDIS tilted suddenly.
"Great! Now we need more fuel, and you know what that means!" he said agitatedly.
"What?" Amy said, following him into the Console Room with Alex in her arms.
The Doctor's shoulders slumped as he put his hand on a lever and pulled it down, bringing the TARDIS into flight.
"We're going to Cardiff."
"Let's just hope Jack doesn't notice us." the Doctor muttered, running round the TARDIS.
Amy picked up the phone and pressed speed dial 1.
After only two rings, the phone was answered.
"We have a Code Blue Situation, repeat, a Code Blue Situation." she whispered, making sure the Doctor didn't hear.
"Where?"the person on the other end asked.
"Cardiff." Amy smiled, putting the phone down.
The TARDIS jolted around.
Amy checked her watch, set in Earth time.
10:58.
She sneakily switched the landing settings on the console - they currently read Cardiff, Wales, UK, Earth, 26th February 2011, 11:00am.
After a few flicks, they were now landing at 12:15pm.
That should be enough tim, Amy thought.
The TARDIS landed with a bump.
Amy went to the door.
"STOP! Do NOT go out there!" the Doctor yelled.
"Why not?" Amy said curiously.
"Because if you go out there, you will meet Captain Jack Harkness, and if you do that I'm afraid he might just think he's died and gone to heaven... finally." the Doctor warned.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Don't open that!" the Doctor told her.
She walked to the door.
"Don't do it!" he yelled.
She opened the door.
"SURPRISE!"
People flooded into the TARDIS.
River, Rory carrying Jake, Sarah carrying Ella, Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper, Rhys Williams and Anwen, Rex Matheson, Esther Drummond, Martha Jones, Mickey Smith, Sarah Jane Smith, Luke Clyde and Rani, K9...
The Doctor stood, gobsmacked as they spread through the Control Room.
"Doctor, we've got a surprise!" Jack called, as Rose Tyler walked through the door.
The Doctor walked slowly down the steps slowly, mouth hanging open as he took in the fact that Rose was stood, in the TARDIS, once more.
"Is this him?" Rose asked, to which everyone nodded.
She slapped him across the face.
The Doctor's eyebrows shot up as he rubbed his face; you could almost see his brain having a meltdown.
"I told you not to change your face!" she said, annoyed, but then grinned.
"I did it! We're all back, Mum, Dad, little Tony, me and... well, you, I guess!" she said, as the half-human Doctor walked in.
"Rose, I think he needs a nappy change, he's all wriggly and weird and..." the Doctor (John Smith) walked in, holding a wriggling baby at arms length, who's face was red and scrumpled.
"Come here, I'll take him." Rose grinned watching the Doctor take it in. "Look at you, you're having a heart attack! But it really is you isn't it?"
Sudddenly, the Doctor's brain caught up and he hugged Rose.
"I can't believe it, you're back, you're... how did you do it?" he said.
"There were these cracks, in walls and the ground, all over the universe and my Torchwood was working on it, and then I looked through one and saw Jack, so I called up Mum and Dad and everyone and we came through. Lucky guess really, but we've lived in Cardiff ever since - Dad sold his ideas here and got the same job as in the Parralell World, so it's just as good with twice as much Jack!" Rose grinned.
"I'm not ok with that, by the way!" John Smith said.
"The cracks in time, I closed them, so that means you came before that and... ah. You've been here a while haven't you?" the Doctor said guiltily.
Rose nodded.
"You've tried to get in touch, haven't you?"
"Yup."
"I didn't answer, did I?"
"No."
"Sorry." he said sheepishly, and she waved it off as Jackie and Pete bustled in, with bags and a little boy.
The boy had Jackie's blonde hair and Pete's blue eyes, as he grinned up angelicly whilst nicking cookies from his mum's bag.
Jackie went to hug Micky while Pete went over to put the bags down.
"That's my little brother Tony, he's five now, and this," she held up her own baby. "Is Milo Rudi Smith."
"Bad Wolf!" the Doctor grinned.
"Bad Wolf!" Rose laughed.
The baby had brown spiky hair, the spitting image of his father but his mothers nose and eyes.
He was, however, wearing a long brown overcoat - as was his father - and they both wore identical blue and brown pinstriped suits.
"Malo is the correct translation for bad really, but Milo's close enough - suppose Milo's a more common name." the Doctor said.
"Spoilsport." Rose giggled, going over to hug Micky, Sarah-Jane and others.
"Right then! More people I thought were gone forever, please walk in and give me a heart attack!" the Doctor joked.
That's when Jenny walked in.
