On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me…
The TARDIS crash landing in a tree

(10th Doctor x Reader)

It was late on a Friday night and you were by yourself per usual. You sighed as you settled in to your couch, bucket of ice cream in hand and a large blanket to snuggle with. “Oh Netflix,” you said, mostly for the sake of filling the silence, “it loos like its just you and me tonight.” You idly browsed the selection of movies before finally settling on re-watching one of your favorite television shows.

Three-and-a-half episodes later, you couldn’t help the heaviness that had settled upon your eyelids. The sound of the television was soothing as you drifted in and out of consciousness. It was then, when you had finally fallen into a shallow slumber, that a resounding crash came from your back yard.

You were jolted awake, eyes snapping open as you fell off of your couch and landed on the floor with a low ‘oof’. What the..? You sat up slowly, rubbing your head as you looked towards the widow, searching for the source of the noise.

You lifted yourself up slowly, too scared to make any sudden movements. Creeping forward, you cautiously approached your back door. You pressed your ear up against the cold wood, and listened for any more noise. The resounding silence was reassuring, and you proceeded to crack the door open a little, peering out into the yard.

A subtle glow lit the entire area, flickering slowly and bathing the walls of your home in a gentle orange glow. You blinked slowly, not fully comprehending what you were seeing until you were nearly bowled over by a figure running through your doorway.

“Water! I need water!”

You watched in amazement as a man in a long, brown trench coat, suit, and sneakers delved through your cupboards, knocking pots and pans everywhere before pulling out one of your larger bowls and filling it up with water. It was only a few seconds before he was running back outside, water in hand.

You turned your attention back to the yard, only to see the branches of your beautiful, old oak tree engulfed in flames. The man who had dashed into your house was currently running about madly, trying to douse the flames around what appeared to be a giant blue box.

Snapping back to reality, you ran to your kitchen sink and rummaged around the area underneath it for the fire extinguisher you kept in case of emergency. Grabbing ahold of the object, you darted away, your legs carrying you out the back door and into your yard faster than you would’ve thought possible.

You skidded to a stop beside your unexpected guest. The flame didn’t seem at all affected by the meager amounts of water thrown at it by the strange man and you were trying to control the panic that was welling up in your chest.

“Quick,” you shouted, “grab the hose!”

You pointed to the edge of your garden where the green coil lay unassumingly. As he took off, you squeezed the handle on your fire extinguisher, releasing s flurry of white powder that smothered the area in front of you. From the other side of the tree you could hear water running from the hose, and together you two worked to douse the flames.

Minutes passed and what had one been a blaze was now a few smoldering embers. With the back of your sleeve you wiped the perspiration off of your face, unknowingly smearing soot along your cheek. You were so out of it that you didn’t see the man approaching you until he called out.

“Ello, I’m the doctor. What’s your name then?”

Your head shot up, startled by his sudden appearance. You looked him over from head to toe, taking in everything from his tousled brown locks to his bright, red sneakers that looked a little worn, presumably from frequent running. You stuttered slightly, a little unsure of what to say, but your manners took over instinctually and you extended your hand, and replied, “(f/n), (f/n) (l/n).”

A large, goofy smile overtook his face as he reached out and gave your hand a firm shake.

“Well (f/n) (l/n), how would you like to take a little trip as a thank you for helping me save my TARDIS?”

You looked at him blankly.

“Your TARDIS?” you said, testing the feel of the word on your tongue.

“Yes, yes, my TARDIS. It stands for time and relative dimension in space.”

He looked at you like you were missing something obvious. Your eyes wheeled around for a moment before landing on what was still perched in your tree.

“O-oh, you must mean your box.”

“That would be it! Now, anywhere in time and space, anywhere at all; where would you like to go?”

You just stared, glancing between the box and its owner.

“You’re mad.”

The strange man sighed a little at this, shaking his head slightly.

“Would you like me to prove it to you?”

He turned without waiting for an answer and snapped his fingers. As if on cue, the doors to the TARDIS swung open and a rope ladder rolled out, allowing him to climb up to the entryway.

“Wait right there,” he called as he pulled himself inside, “I’m going get out of this tree.” And with that, he closed the door after himself.

You stood in the lawn, arms crossed, looking at the blue box skeptically before a strange whirring noise filled that back yard and the light on the top started to flash. The look on your face dropped instantly and your eyes widened in surprise as the box gradually faded from the charred branches of your oak.

In only a few moments the noise started up again behind you and you turned just in time to see the box materialize. The strange noise stopped and the right door swung open to reveal the doctor leaning casually against its frame.

He extended his hand to you.

“Well… Are you coming?”
