The Doctor wandered around the TARDIS looking for Rose to see if she wanted a midnight cup of tea. She probably didn't, he reflected, but who cares? He looked in her room, but she wasn't there. He walked to the library. Nope, she wasn't there either. He looked in almost every part of the TARIS, even under the bathroom sink, before finally giving up and going into the kitchen to have his own private cup of tea.

There she was, sitting at a table. Her head rested on her arms and she was asleep. Beside her, a cup of tea cooled as she slept. The Doctor smiled at her for a moment, before removing his jacket and draping it over her shoulders. Then he bent down and whispered something in her ear. She was obviously asleep, he silently reasoned to himself as he left the room. She couldn't have heard him.

When Rose was sure that he'd gone, she opened her eyes. He thought he was so clever! She thought back to what he had said and she smiled.

"I love you"
