MIDNIGHT
P A R T O N E
RIVER GOT ME THE SAPPHIRE WATERFALLS train ride for my 16th birthday two years ago.
Obviously with my type of time travel I am now able to take the trip and because of this, I promised myself that I'd save the date in my Calendar and definitely do it on this day.
Here I am sat at the front of the midnight train wearing red joggers, fishnet tights, a black crop top and converse, my hair down and curled and makeup was minimal.
Leaving everything at home I thought it would be a nice couple of hours away, well except for the sonic blaster of course, that was tucked away in a bag next to me, oh and my manipulator, I never leave home without it.
"8 hours on a train doesn't seem like your thing"
The doctor sat next to me in a different attire than usual... and a different face.
"and here I thought it would be a quiet 8 hours." I said as I looked at the spikey haired man.
The train like thing was only one small booth and was set out like an aeroplane interior.
Oblivious to the people around me, I didn't realise the doors were shut and we were starting to make a move.
"That's the headphones for channels one to thirty-six. Modem link for 3D vidgames. Complimentary earplugs. Complimentary slippers. Complimentary juice pack and complimentary peanuts. I must warn you some products may contain nuts" the hostess says as she can around with a trolly passing me and the doctor some freebies
"That'll be the peanuts" the Doctors says.
"Enjoy your trip."the hostess replied
"Oh, I can't wait. Allons-y." The doctor smiled
"I'm sorry?" The hostess looked confused
"It's French, for let's go" He added
"Fascinating"the hostess said before rolling the trolly behind us
"Headphones for channels one to thirty-six."
"Oh no, thank you, not for us" the man behind us said.
"Earplugs, please" the women next to the man asks.
"There you go."
"They call it the Sapphire Waterfall, but it's no such thing. Sapphire's an aluminium oxide, but the glacier is just compound silica with iron pigmentation. Have you got that pillow for my neck?" The man behind us said
"Yes, sir."
"And the pills?" The Doctor turned around in his chair and got on his knees peering over the seat
"Yes, all measured out for you. There you go" the lady behind us said
"Hobbes. Professor Winfold Hobbes."
"I'm the doctor and this is" the doctor motioned to me where I was sat in my seat looking at my phone
The doctor pulled it out of my hand and I got up on my knees, facing the people behind trying to get it.
"This is alex pond"
"It's my fourteenth time" Hobbes says.
"Oh. Our first, didn't even get the tickets together and still managed to turn up on the same trip" the Doctors says as he hands me my phone back.
"And I'm Dee Dee, Dee Dee Blasco."
"Don't bother them. Where's my water bottle?" The man said as I turned to sit back down, flicking through my texts
