An Abundance of Life II TenthDoctor-Allonsy

She let out a cry of triumph as the door gave way, mischief printed in those teal coloured eyes. “Hmm not just a pretty face are you dear?”
Tutting now, River let the door swing open noisily, not bothering to glance behind her in case the guards decided to appear. Honestly, with security so lax it was almost too easy breaking in here.
“A spherical bit of metal with fabled, magical properties. How’s a girl supposed to resist?” Without further ado she was strolling into the cell, making herself quite at home. “Perhaps I’m not here to steal it Doctor. From an archaeological perspective it’s still intriguing.” The fact that those eyes still retained that same mischievous quality said otherwise however.

“I’m never just a pretty face.” He shrugged, tease on his eyes. “You should have gotten used to that already, sweetie.” The Doctor remained where he was while she opened the door, not showing how grateful he was to see her in this moment. His eyes drifted in the surroundings as the noise echoed in the room. She was always a show off, wasn’t she?

He pressed his lips, letting out a sigh with an incredulous laugh. “It’s gonna take me a bit more to believe you, River dear. I may not know you yet, but I know your type: always flirty, always with a lie coming out of your mouth; always with that teasing and mischievous grin in your eyes.” The Doctor unfolded his arms, walking toward her and stroking his thumb on her cheek. “I’m not that easily fooled, honey.”

“But thank you for the rescue, though. Will you need a ride?”
