A/N: Hello everyone! This has actually been written for a while now and I accidentally forgot about it. Sorry. Got a little caught up in my other fics. But here is the new chapter! :D I love feedback and I take everything into account when writing future chapters. Un-betaed, so any and all mistakes are my own.

Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor Who or any of its characters.

Enjoy! :D

Rose reached into her bag and pulled out some fruit that she'd packed. There were strawberries, peeled oranges, and, of course, bananas. She also packed a container filled with sweet cream. Snagging one of the strawberries first, Rose dipped it into the bowl of cream and took a bite.

The Doctor watched as the plump fruit disappeared into Rose's mouth, licking his lips in response to the juice and cream coating her lips. His mouth watered as he imagined the sweet taste of strawberry, cream, and something distinctly Rose.

She sucked the excess juice from her fingers and licked each digit with deliberate slowness, savoring the sweet taste, exaggerating every swipe of her tongue to torment the noticeably tense Time Lord.

Oh, he was affected by what she was doing, if his clenched hands and intense stare were anything to go by. She smiled internally.

The Doctor was still in an aroused stupor when Rose asked, "Want some?" She gestured towards the basket of fruits sitting on her towel and it took him a full two seconds before he could think up a semi-intelligent reply.

"S…sure, yeah. Strawberries." He tried to swallow around the sandpaper feel in his mouth.

She smirked and said seductively, "And cream too. They taste better together. The sharp, tangy taste of strawberry mixed with the rich silkiness of cream." Rose plucked another strawberry from the basket and dipped it into the cream again, this time moaning at the sweet flavor.

The Doctor could not stop his mouth from dropping. He wanted nothing more than to take a bite out of the strawberry in her hand or, better yet, the piece she was savoring in her mouth. He was not going to let that slide; if Rose Tyler wanted teasing, he'd give her teasing.

Taking hold of Rose's wrist right after she dipped the strawberry into the cream again, the Doctor wrapped his lips around the red berry and slowly sunk his teeth into it. He was careful not to bite her fingers and swept his tongue along the digits right next to his lips.

His warm tongue sent hot tingles to her core, causing her to rub her thighs together a bit to relieve the building pressure there. The Doctor stared at her hotly with bedroom eyes. "So, is there anything else to…eat?"

The way he paused and swept his gaze down her body before finishing his sentence almost had Rose forgetting why they were even competing. She just wanted to climb on top of him and show him just how affected she was by his proximity and his lack of clothing.

The Doctor, for his part, could sense that she was starting to falter and grinned at his new found advantage. "I am getting quite peckish and I do so love nibbles."

Rose flushed a brilliant red as the Doctor leaned in close to look at the spread of fruit. He licked his lips before reaching for an orange slice and popping it into his mouth.

He hummed happily as the tart taste hit his taste buds. The citrusy tang mixed with the aftertaste of strawberry, cream, and Rose made him hum in approval. In fact, he wondered if there were any other flavors that he could mix with Rose's.

"So, what sort of planet is this? What are the natives like?" Rose asked as she watched him out of the corner of her eye.

"Hmm, oh, well this planet is home to Epotois Conglomeration. A matriarchal society in its early days but, though it still favored its matriarchal traditions, the populace eventually developed more equally among the sexes. The natives are humanoid with pale blue skin and vibrant green eyes." The Doctor grinned at her, momentarily forgetting their little competition.

He loved it when she asked questions. So curious, his Rose. He turned his attention to the lulling waves, remembering his favorite moments with his curious pink and yellow girl. This one now ranked among the top ten.

"Sounds amazing. I'm surprised there aren't any around. Are we near any cities or villages?" she asked before popping another strawberry into her mouth.

"Nope. The Conglomeration hasn't made it this far out into their ocean yet. They mostly stick to the hills and mountains. We are all alone here; just you, me, and the sunshine." The Doctor rolled onto his back and closed his eyes, enjoying the calm, comfortable atmosphere.

Rose watched him lay back against his towel and took the chance to let her eyes wander. His face was relaxed and pensive as he soaked in the sunlight. Freckles standing out against his pale skin, a strong roman nose contrasted with his pouty lips that she wanted to nibble on, given the chance. He had a sparse amount of hair covering his chest and she certainly wouldn't mind running her fingers through it. He thinned towards his waist, hip bones jutting out just a bit beneath his swim trunks.

The Doctor shifted on his towel and Rose turned her attention to the rest of his body. Legs long and lean, built for running led to long, thin feet. Rose couldn't help the slight blush as she let her thoughts wander over the many parts of him she no longer had to imagine late at night in her bedroom. She now had something to compare it to and realized that her fantasies could never even hold a candle to the image in front of her.

Even with his eyes closed, the Doctor knew that Rose was looking at him. It was almost as though he could feel her eyes on him and that sent an excited tingle down his spine. "So, do you like what you see?"

"Wha'?" Rose startled at his sudden question, blushing deeply at being caught. "Guess I'm just not used to seeing you without your suit on. I have to say, this is practically scandalous for you."

Her cheeky response made him laugh and he opened his eyes. His breath caught as she smiled at him, just as she always did. But something was different in her smile, something that made his stomach tighten in excitement.

She was beautiful.

It wasn't just the way she looked, it was the way she felt everything with the whole of her being. The joy she found in just holding his hand and being by his side. Never could he have imagined finding someone like her in all his travels.

Never has he wanted someone as much as he wanted Rose.

Oh, and did he want.

"Well, I have to say it's nice to let go once in a while, don't you think? Why don't we take a dip in a few minutes?" he asked, rolling over to face her. He propped his head up on his hand.

Rose bit her lip, cutting off the needy sound that threatened to escape as he turned his gaze on her. Oh, now that wasn't fair. He was using that look again; the one that turned her insides to mush and made her rub her thighs together in hopes of relieving the need for friction.

Cheeky git.

Well, that wouldn't do. "Okay then. But I have a question?"

"Hmm, sure. What is it?"

Leaning over until her face was just inches away from the Doctor's, Rose asked in a tentative voice, "Well, we are alone on this island correct?"

"Yeah?"

Her smirk made him squirm. "I don't really want any awkward tan lines and since it's just us I figured, well, why even bother with swimsuits?"
