Chapter Nine: TARDIS Tales

I'm new and thought I'd introduce myself with a Sarah/Alan fic. Enjoy!!!

Title: Whilst The Kids Do Their Homework...
Author: glitterychild
Characters: Sarah Jane, Alan
Spoilers: None
Summary: Sarah Jane and Alan entertain themselves whilst Luke and Maria do their homework.

<lj-cut text= Whilst The Kids do Their Homework...>
Sarah didn't hear the front door knock. She didn't hear it click open or footsteps approach her. She was standing beside the window, her arms wrapped loosely around her waist, warming her face in the late afternoon sunshine. She jumped when she heard a floorboard creak behind her. Alan was standing behind her, concern written across his face. He must have noticed the tears in her eyes but Sarah Jane was thankful that he didn't let on.

"I was looking for Maria," he said a little awkwardly. "Didn't mean to disturb."

"Oh no, not at all!" Sarah Jane sniffed, flashing a somewhat forced smile. "She went with Luke to the library. Something about a History project? Hope you don't mind."

"I'm thankful she's even doing her homework! Well, I better go and put tea on. Thanks, Sarah," he turned to leave but paused before he reached the door. "You know, we all have our weaker moments. I mean, there are nights when I even pine for Chrissie! You shouldn't give yourself such a hard time."

Sarah smiled, this time genuinely.

"Thank you Alan. I needed to hear that."

"Oh, anytime! What are neighbours for?"

"Quite. I'll send Maria over when she gets back," she wiped the damp from her cheeks and watched as Alan walked away. He really was a lovely man.

* * * * * *

Twilight was setting in when Sarah Jane dashed across the road to the Jackson household.

"Only me," she chirped when Alan opened the door. "Just popped over to tell you that Luke and Maria are in my attic still wrking on their project. She could be sometime."

"Who'd have thought the Tudors would cause so much trouble," Alan chuckled. "Fancy a glass of wine?"

Sarah accepted the invitation. The kids were wrapped up in their homework and she had nothing better to do. And to be honest, she craved some non-alien, non-teenager related company.

Half a bottle later and she was beginning to to wonder if she had made the right decision. The room was tilting around her and she was having truoble getting her words out.

"He was completely devoted to his work and it didn't matter if I got brushed aside in the process ......and then he left me. Just like that!"

"Break-ups are hard," Alan sighed, gulping down a mouthful of wine. "Chrissie was just so insensitive to my feelings! She always had to have everything her way. Now she's sleeping with her dance teacher. Her dance teacher!"

Sarah smiled sympathetically a stifled a hiccup. She stood up slowly, the whole room swaying.

"I better be off. It's getting late."

Alan followed her to the door. He was just as tiddly.

"Thanks for the company. I haven't had this much fun for ages."

By 'fun' he meant drunk.

"Yes. We should do this more often," Sarah replied hoping she didn't sound too eager.\

If it wasn't for the alcohol in him, Alan would never have dreamed of kissing Sarah jane goodbye. But he did. And instead of giving her a friendly kiss on the cheek, he missed and got her lips instead. She was shocked but didn't object. He didn't pull away but kissed her harder, holding her face in his hands. She smelled good and her skin was soft beneath his fingertips.

Soon they were frantically pulling at each others clothes. Alan pushed Sarah up against the door, his lips never leaving hers as he unbuttoned her blouse. She fumbled with his zip. Neither of them were to deny what their bodies wanted. He thrusted himself inside of her with ease, his breath hot in her ear. She let him take control of her body.

He did not disappoint. Sarah bit her lip to stop from screaming out. Alan pulled away, his heart thumping. They neatened themselves up before catching each others gaze. They laughed softly and stole a quick kiss before Sarah slipped out of the front door.

She was surprised at how she had acted but she was sure of one thing- she couldn't wait until Luke and Maria had another project to complete.

THE END

<lj-cut>

Or is it just for specific questions? Cuz, I could use one. Just ten little drabble-esque fics done according to a meme (which, if you want to try it for yourself, can be found here: the iTunes drabble meme), plus one I'm almost done with which got away from me.

I don't think I've committed any major infractions -- might have even gotten a few things right on my own -- but I'd love somebody to really get in and find all the little differences. Like have you ever noticed British English doesn't use the word "that" as often as American? A Brit might say "Well, we won't be having any fun now he's here," whereas an American would say "now that he's here." Little sentence constructions like that, you know?

Anyway, if it's okay to recruit someone here :), you can either comment or email me directly at anne [at] anne-hedonia [dot] com.

10:02 PM 7/18/08 · Roundabout 4 or so months back I asked a question as to whether or not the 3 series, being Doctor Who & Torchwood & Sarah Jane Adventures, ever crossed over each other into a a single adventure. I was told, on several levels, that it couldn't possibly happen because Torchwood was too adult and Sarah Jane was geared entirely for children...

...and one really nutty one actually went so far as to say that Doctor Who was the show that was actually intended for little kids.

( You insidious, demented, fiends! )
