Uhh,” Clara uttered once the water engulfed her completely, “You didn't mention that it was cold.”
Despite that, it was an amazing feeling on her bare skin, almost like being in a bathtub, just better, and now that her body was covered again the Doctor's eyes had left her and he chuckled next to her.
“I would have warned you but you kinda took me by surprise,” he admitted, now swimming up to her. Clara threw him a smile as they both headed away from the beach.
OOO
The Doctor handed out another bottle of beer to everyone at the table before he sank down on the sofa with a sigh. They had been playing card games for two hours until Melody had started to yawn. When Amy came back downstairs from putting her daughter so sleep she clapped her hands excitedly.
“Alright,” she announced, “Let's bring out the adult games now.”
Martha finished her first bottle of beer and placed it sideways on the coffee table. “Who's going to start?”
“Well, Clara of course,” Amy pointed towards their new flatmate.
When the Doctor glanced in her direction he noticed that she looked a little shocked. “I, uhm, I'm afraid I don't know the rules,” Clara admitted sheepishly.
“Oh, that's simple,” Amy explained, “You spin the bottle and whoever it points to has to pick either truth or dare. If they choose truth, you ask them a question. If they choose dare you can tell them to do a funny thing that we can all laugh about.”
Clara giggled nervously. “Okay, that sounds easy enough.”
She leaned forward and spun the bottle. After taking a couple of turns on the wooden table it finally stopped, pointing at Rory.
He looked warily around the table. “If this is going to be another kiss-the-person-to-your-right, I'd like to be reseated.”
The Doctor laughed, remembering that evening all too well where Amy had made Rory kiss him and everyone had howled with laughter.
“What? Am I not a good kisser?” the Doctor asked jokingly, “I'm trying very hard not to be insulted right now.”
“You know what I mean,” Rory growled, “I choose truth. Seems less dangerous with these people.”
