DOCTOR WHO, JESSE AND  JEREMY  40
Somewhere in the Time  Vortex, possibly originating at 1985 or perhaps  1813...
The Rani yelled, "I will  get him for this. It was he who set the TARDIS on
this uncontrollable course!  The navigational system! I hope the Doctor drowns
in his own liquids..."
Doctor cum rose up from the  water. He sat in a large round tub in a Roman
gothic style room. Bubbles were in  the tub and all around bubbles flew in the
air. The tiles around the tub were  pink and there were some large red roses
from other planets as well as Earth. He  laid his head back on a spongy pillow
object on the back of the tub. "Ahhh, yes.  This is the life...I haven't had
time for a bubble bath in, oh,  years...years...years...a long time..."    He shut his
eyes.
Bubbles parted. Large white  soapy suds made a rift to allow something to
come up between them. Jesse's head  surfaced over the Doctor's crotch. He had
been under the water, sucking the  Doctor's member. He was soaking wet and he
yet he had a big smile on his face.  He floated up over the Doctor's stomach and
chest and put his arms out to steady  himself. The Doctor grabbed his hands
and gently lowered Jesse to his chest.  "You're right, Doctor, sometimes a
bath, a bubble bath is preferable to a  shower."
"See,"  the Doctor lifted his  head.
"No, no. Relax,"   Jesse said, "I want you fit for  this Luke Ward."
"Luke Ward. My, my. Poor  boy."  The Doctor put his head back  down. Jesse
started up his neck, kissing him, moving up his neck, showering it  slowly with
pecks and long sucking motions. He moved to the Doctor's lower lip.
"Was he someone that could  have become your...?"
"Companion?"
"Lover?"
"Oh, Jesse, you don't have  to be jealous."
"I'm...I'm not. Not really. I  know your...our's is an open relationship."
Jeremy ran in and yelled,  "BONZAI!"  He was in...well, he in his  birthday
suit and ran from the entrance, a grand seemingly cement archway, to  the water
and splashed down. Covering the Doctor's face with water as well as  the back
of Jesse' head.
"Nothing like a rent in the  air,"  the Doctor smiled and rubbed  soap out
of his eyes, "Jeremy, hello."
Jeremy surfaced up behind  Jesse and laid on him, dick in crack but not
pressed to hole yet, saddling him  down to the Doctor. The Doctor put Jesse to one
side, while Jesse began to  nibble on the Doctor's lower lip.  "Whatcha
talking about?"
"Oh, companions,"  the Doctor put an arm around Jeremy as  Jeremy sat down
next to him inside the tub.  He put an arm under Jesse too but Jesse  was still
facing the Doctor's side and nibbling on his lower lip.
Then Jesse pulled back, "So  what about him, Doc, Luke?"
"Oh, I suppose he and I  could have...I never thought about it back then. In
my sixth or so persona, I was  really busy with Peri Brown. A fellow American.
I sometimes wonder how I survive  with two aboard now. She was quite a handful.
"
Jeremy leaned in close to  the Doctor, snuggling against his face with his
own. "Did you and  she?"
"No. NO. Dear me, NO. No.  Besides, you two know that aside from my wife...
dear me. Dear dear me. Dear she.  I've never really had sex with females. Just
her."
"That you can  remember,"  Jesse  added.
"Yes, it is true that my  memories have been juggled about a bit over the
past 4000 or so years. Almost  2000 as the Other or longer and 2000 as the Doctor...
my, my. There were so many  things jogging my memories and rearranging them,
wiping them. The various  trials, time changes, time warps, time eddies, time
Jamie's, time  bends..."
Jeremy sidelined his head,  laughing slightly, "We get the idea, I think,
Doctor."
"...the brain worm...the  various destructions of Gallifrey. My over 100 years
spent on Earth, almost  alone..."
"Can't picture you alone  anywhere, Doc."  Jesse put a hand on  the Doctor'
s chest and laid back, too.
"Oh there've been  times..."  he said  absentmindedly.
Across the Doctor's nice  chest, Jeremy looked at Jesse. They exchanged a
serious lock of eyes. Jeremy  shook his head slightly in the negative. "So, uhm,
Doc,"  Jesse said to snap the Doctor out of it,  "Which ones do you remember
the most?"
"Well, as I was saying.  I've never really had sex with any of them, the
females that is...and I never had  sex until dear Casey or was it Tom? My mind...I
almost ...had sex with some of the  male companions and I entertained the idea of
trying with the  females."
Jeremy puckered up his  lips. "To prove something?"
"Well, in all intents and  purposes, I was an alien. I kept the half human
thing a secret for as long as I  could. It made me look weak to my various
stronger enemies if I was human or  even partly human so I covered that up myself.
Mind you, at times, my body was  human, sometimes fully. I think during my
First, Second, and even my Seventh  incarnation, I was human. And there've been
alternate Me's that I know were  always human, and from Earth! Mind you, it is
my favorite planet so I was  honored. I've never seen or heard from other
alternate me me's that were  anything other than either Time Lord Gallifrean or
Earth human. Do you guys  understand?"
Jeremy nodded, "yes"  but Jesse nodded,  "No."
"Oh."
"Just kiddin,"  Jesse said, "Go  on."
The Doctor puffed, "This  was supposed to be relaxing."
"We could just stop and  rest if you'd like,"  Jesse  said.
"No, no. It helps to clear  the cobwebs. I think I did it so little before I
met you two, that that's why I  was so closed emotionally and sexually...I
never really was hetero, you know. Or  bi. I think I tried to force it. I felt sad
that I couldn't really forge a  relationship that way with any of the others,
especially such lovely and nice  females. I think Liz Shaw was the first I
thought about it. I used to hug her  and she me. But that was it. When Jo Grant
came around, I thought, "Ahhh ahhh,  ha. This is the one. I will prove it with
her. She and I will get romantic....then  she went off and married that hunky
Cliff Jones."
"Betcha you really wanted  him, instead,"  Jeremy  commented.
"You know, now that you  mention it..."   The Doctor  smiled, "He was rather
dreamy...long hair....seventies you  know."
"Ewl, he was in his  seventies?"
"No, it was the 1970s and I  will have you know that for some, life doesn't
begin until the  70s..."
Jesse shut his eyes now.  "Sorry, didn't mean to be so shallow..."
"You're not. You just like  good looking things. Can't say I blame you. I
really couldn't do that sorta  thing with Sarah Jane or Leela or even Romana...I
mean I had strong bonds with all  of them really. Very good friends. But that'
s all they were. Good, close, best  friends. In the back of my mind I always
made some excuse that it was something  else...the fact that they thought I was
totally alien, that they weren't  interested or they were to naive or innocent
or something. And maybe they were  waiting for me to make the first move."
"Then...?"
"Well after Romana, I had a  string of younger girls..."
"Doctor,"  Jesse patted his hand on the chest, "You  stud..."
"Not that way!"  The Doctor smiled, taking in  the joke. "I mean Nyssa
really. The  others...Tegan, Peri, Mel, and Ace...well, our relationships were all
rather  strained at best. I almost always looked at them like nieces and grand
daughters, you know?"
Jeremy shrugged, "I've seen  pictures of Peri, and you know what, if I were
hetero, I'd might...do ...well,  suffice to say that I doubt there are many that
think of her as their grand  daughter!"
"True. Along the way there  was a Native American boy, Kiko. He was rather
studly and I think Navajo. And 17  or 18 or 19 or something....I rather fancied
him. He was so handsome and strong.  And a little chimney cleaning boy and a boy
from the coal mines. They were far  too young for me."
"I guess even you have your  limits,"  Jesse laughed.  "And boundaries..."
"And there was Grant and a  string of  one or two other time  travelers...and
of course UNIT men..."
"Ah, yeah, yes. I wondered  if you ever did any of the men in uniform..."
Jesse  mentioned.
"No, no, no. Even though  sometime later than the UNIT stay on Earth, I
discovered that good old, troubled  Mike Yates was indeed, one of the people..."
"Your people? A Time Lord?"
"Stop the joking, the pair  of you, before I give you my boot up your..."
Jesse put in a praying  position, "Oh please please please do that?"
"Sigh,"  the Doctor said. "He was gay. Okay, I've  said it, gay gay gay!
And I had dear old Evelyn. She and I were sort of on an  even keel. She
understood me."
"Was she the bestest?"  Jeremy  asked.
The Doctor eyeballed him.  Then his heart melted. "Dear Dear Jeremy,  "you
are so innocent, aren't you?"
"Traveling around with  you?"  Jeremy shrugged, "Doubt  that."
"I am,"  Jesse said.
Jeremy and the Doctor both  laughed so hard and dropped their jaws so low,
that they took in some water in  their laughing. Jesse rolled his eyes and then
laughed along with  them.
"So were we the  first?"  Jeremy asked, "The first  males to ever have sex
with you?"
"No, no, not quite..I think  Tom came first. Then Casey. I loved them both. I'
m not sure I really had sex  with them. The Master and the Rani fooled up
with some of my memories of them  both but they are okay and alive. I think I
knew Tom first and Tom was but 15.  Casey was a bit...oh dear, maybe he was the
same age. When I met them anyway. They  stayed on, separately for some time. Tom
was with like my 9th self,  maybe? Or was it my 19th? Oh dear.  Damn."
"It'll cum...."  Jesse said.
"Well, we certainly did,  when they were the right age...but anyway, not too
too long after Tom, I met  Casey. Another American...I think I have a thing for
Americans...probably after I  met Grace and Chang Lee, I developed a taste for
you guys..."  The Doctor mimicked an American dialect.  Then he went back to his
British accent.   "I think we had mutual  masturbation..."

"So what you're saying  is that you might have been a virgin when you had us?
"  Jeremy asked.
"Other than when I had sex  with my wife..."
"Female sex doesn't  count,"  Jesse  said.
"Yeah, it does,"  Jeremy said in his best African American  voice.
"What body were you in when  you met Casey?"
"Oh, maybe my  12th or my 22nd?"   The Doctor said, "None of it  matters
now. They paved the way for me to have a full and open relationship with  the two
of you."
"Doctor, we are not going  to leave you,"  Jesse said, "I want  to restate
that. We may both have some breaks or some time off to be with our  families or
to do a benefit or a movie or a song or so but...you're IT for  us..."
"Yeah,"  Jeremy shook his head. "As long as you  feel you want us."
"Absolutely."  The Doctor put his head back again,  "Just remember I don't
want to hold you back from other people as  well."
"Such as?"   Jeremy  asked.
"Adam for  one."
"He was so smokin,"  Jesse said.
"And we won't hold you  back..."  Jeremy  added.
"From  what?"
"From who, from other  people."
"Such  as?"
"Luke Ward."
"Ahhh, yes."  The Doctor stood up, "Which reminds me,  the TARDIS should be
landing any..."    They heard the familiar  sound of the TARDIS touching down. "
Second...time to go outside I think and once  and for all, turn Luke and those
two miners back to  people..."
A half hour later, the trio  emerged from the TARDIS. The Doctor carried two
of  his strange round silver devices. They  were  almost like bubbles he had
pulled from the tub but  they  weren't really. They were a metallic affair
wrapped in a bubble filled with  liquid. There was  a place to  manipulate the
buttons without getting one's hand wet. "Ahh the past. I love the  future but
the past...there's nothing like it. Feel that air?"
Jeremy did. It was cloudy  and overcast with some sun shining in  through
slight breaks in the gray/white cloud  cover.
As he stretched, Jeremy  took in the fresh air, "October, huh? I guess it
smells like it. Reminds me of  that place we once visited, eh, Doctor, Iron
Bridge Gorge..."  Jeremy wore an overcoat, almost a  Doctor-ish velvet affair, dark
brown with pockets. And a long gray sprinkled but  mainly brown scarf.  And
dress pants  and black shoes.
"I'm getting a  jacket,"   Jesse, who wore a  lite red t shirt with a dark
red collar and sleeve lining, went back inside. He  also had on darker red
lined pants and sneakers, also red.
"Looks more like Blist's  Hill in the Queen Elizabeth Country Park,  West
London,"  the Doctor smiled.
:How can you tell the  difference,"  Jeremy smiled,  "Cold-ish..."
"Remind me to tell you a  story about the word ISH one time, you'll love it.
This whole trip has a Peri  feel to it."
"Just as long as you told  us the truth about you never having a feel to
Peri."
The Doctor laughed, "Clever  wit, my boy, clever wit. You constantly remind
me of why I travel with you."  He handed Jeremy one of  the devices, "You
always pull your  load."
"And yours too."    Jeremy smiled, then breathed  in some of the crisp air.
 "Do  you remember where Luke and the two men were?"
"Oh, it's been eons  since...for me 1000s of years have passed, over 25 or
more bodies, memories have  been jacked up and about and down and around..."
"So you  don't?"
"No,"  the Doctor pointed, "This way."   He lead Jeremy off. Green beneath
their footsteps. It was green and shiny wet in the  forest.
Jesse came out wearing a  lite, orange, almost lyrca,  jacket.  "Hey, wait
for me."
"Redfern Dell, that's where  I'm requested to be!!!"  The Doctor
impersonated his Sixth Persona's voice. "That's what I used to be  like."
"Used to?"  Jesse said, having overheard that. The  trio walked through to
the woods where it was bit darker under the canopy of  leaves and branches.
As they walked toward two  trees in particular, the Doctor was talking to
Jeremy about the circumstances  surrounding the events that lead to the miners
and Luke becoming trees.  "We originally thought it was just the  Luddite
uprisings of the times...but 1813 is when they actually subsided..."   They stopped at
the two trees. The  Doctor put the device he carried down. Jeremy stopped,
stooped and did the same.  The Doctor took out a magnifying glass and began to
look at the two  trees.
"They're the men who were  afraid machines would take their place, their
jobs?"
"Correct,"  the Doctor said, examining the trees  some more. He put the
magnifying glass away and took out a  monocle, also from his blue leather  jacket.
He put it in his right eye and examined the trees. "It wasn't them  though...
it was but it was the Rani controlling  them..."
Jesse thought about trying  to get into the conversation but thought he'd
change it, "It's just rained,  hasn't it? Feels very wet around here..."
The Doctor didn't ignore  him this time. "Killingworth, a colliery village a
few miles north of Newcastle Upon Tyne . 19th century mining town.  In the
1960s it would be the area known or renown for the mess of  housing schemes, the
housing proving  unsuccessful. Rains a lot here not that the rough and tough
and tumble men of  the mine..."
Jesse interjected, "I like  them already."
"Objected to working the  rain. Truth was they were probably just a bit
fearful of advancements..."  the Doctor talked as he looked over the  trees and then
suddenly put his monocle back.
"Well?"  Jeremy asked, heaving the device from  falling from his grasp.
The Doctor nodded, "DON'T  drop that,"  and he said it calmer  than he ought
to have. "It's the miners. Luke must be a few yards that  way..."   He set
the device he  laid down, "This should get one of them. And I'll set that one
as well. For  Luke, however,  I'll need the third  one from the TARDIS. Jesse?"

Jesse puffed, "Oh  me?"
"Can you please get  it?"  Jeremy asked, his wide open  eyes pleading.
"Oh, those eyes, oh  alright,"  Jesse said and ran back  to the TARDIS,
taking his key out as he did so.
"He'd so anything for  me,"  Jeremy looked up at the  Doctor.
"You're shameless,"  the Doctor told him, from standing over  him. Then he
bent down, turned his back to Jeremy and began working on the  device he laid
at the base one of the tree closest to  them.
"Oh come on, like he  wouldn't do anything for you, too."
"Okay, stand back,"  the Doctor said and pulled him up.  "Take that with  you
..."
As they stood back, about  30 feet away, they watched, not taking their eyes
off the area even as they  moved back. "How long?"
"Seconds. And you're right,  we'd all do anything for each other,"  the
Doctor said.
"Yeah,"  Jeremy said as the bomb went off. The  leaves in the dirt flew up
in the air. The trees were gone and in their place  were two miners. "Doctor!
It worked! You did it!"
"We did. You, me, Jesse,  Davi, the students from the elevator...all working
together from different  times..."
"Seems you got two with one  shot..."  Jeremy  said.
"Just like he does with us  sometimes."  Jesse was back, huffing  and he put
the third device down and began to sit on it, "Seems we don't need  this one
after all. What a wasted trip I made for  nothing..."
The Doctor grabbed him by  the arm and pulled him off the device, "DON'T  do
that! You can't sit on  that!"
Jesse gulped, "You're  right, I'm sorry."
"I don't want to see you  become a daffodil or a papaya..."
"I'm really sorry, wasn't  thinking..."   Jesse said.
The miners were unsteady on  their feet. They saw the Doctor, Jesse and
Jeremy. "Best not to do anything, let  them acclimate to..."  the Doctor  began but
the miners, frightened, ran off.
"Sure that they don't do  anything to change the timeline?"  Jeremy asked.
Jesse sighed. They looked  at him. "I'm going to go for a walk."
"It..it's..it IS safe,  right, Doctor?"  Jeremy worried for  Jesse.
"What?"  The Doctor said, as he examined the  device near where the miners
had turned to trees. "Yes, oh yes. Very. Now that  the Rani and the Master are
gone. I, uh,"  he laughed, "I sabotage the Rani's TARDIS..."
Jesse moved off, "Yeah, we  know. You told us..."
"Don't go far,"  the Doctor said, "We just have to find  Luke and turn him
..."   The  Doctor looked at Jeremy, "Do you think...you don't think he's
getting bored with  me, do you?"
"No, he's just in one of  his moods, it'll pass,"  Jeremy  said. "Doctor,
is it okay? The miners, they won't mess up time or anything, will  they?"
"No, I checked their  personal timelines. Seems they don't do much of
anything...in fact, I couldn't  find much about them beyond this point...Luke either
for that matter. So you see,  they were never meant to become trees...it was the
Rani's time interference that  changed time in the first place but only ever so
slightly. We're just..."  the Doctor tilted his head like a dog  that heard a
strange whistle, "...ever so slightly tilting it  back..."
"If you say so,"  Jeremy said.  He picked up the device Jesse had put  down.
"I'd say Luke's over  here,"  the Doctor picked up the  other device. "Let'
s see if we can do the same thing we did for those  miners..."
Jesse moved through the  area. He saw a large gate and decided to stay away
from that. Then he saw a  large area of woods and moved through it. He put his
hands in his pockets. He  kicked something. Stone? He looked down at the
ground and tracked what he had  kicked. He moved toward the "stone" he kicked. He
touched it. "A kid's  toy?"  It was a dog. A black dog. A  guard dog. "I
wonder..."
The deed was already done.  Luke Ward stood before the Doctor and Jeremy. "
Luke? Can you hear me?  Luke?"
Jeremy puffed, "He's been a  tree for a long time...no wait, that's not
right. We must have just arrived a few  minutes after..."
"Yes. He's only been a tree  for a few minutes, I'd say ten at most but even
ten is a lifetime of changing  adventure..."  The Doctor looked up at  the
tall boy. "Luke...Luke..."  he  snapped his fingers. "Snap out of it."
"Are...you... a...friend... of...my...  father's?"
"Yes, I'm the Doctor...do you  remember?"
"The Doctor? Where's  your...."  Luke laughed, "You are NOT  the Doctor."
"Oh, can't you accept that  he is?"  Jeremy  said.
Luke looked at Jeremy and  noticed him for the first time. He seemed to see
nothing else. Luke smiled,  "Hello there..."
"Your, uh, your father is  alright, Luke. He's, hum, uhm, waiting for you..."
 the Doctor said, "Before you leave,  though I wanted to thank you, thank you
for saving my friend  Peri."
"Oh nothing to it,"  Luke said, "I felt imprisoned in this  immobile manner.
It was the least I could do. I'm not sure I understand  everything that
happened to me..."
"I know how you feel."  Jeremy said, and put his hand out,  "Goodbye..."

"Goodbye? We've only just  met..."  Luke took Jeremy's hand and  brought it
up to his lips and kissed it.
"Doctor, is there something  you didn't tell us about Luke?"
"Something he didn't tell  me about himself..."  the Doctor said.
Suddenly, two screams  divided the air currents. Screeching of the most
horrible kind. Which stopped  abruptly.
Jeremy's eyes grew wide,  "Jesse!!!"  He still had the device  in his hands,
the only one they had left and he  ran.
"Jeremy!"  The Doctor took off after him. Luke  followed them.
Jesse was running toward  the sound of the two miners' screams. He saw a row
of trees beyond. He bent down  to look at a large puddle, reflected in the low
light of a clouded sun. For it  was still somewhat overcast, even if a bit of
sunshine occasionally peeked  through the clouds. "Blood. Large puddles of
blood. Doc..."    Before he could call out the  Doctor's name or rather his
title, Jesse felt instinctively that he shouldn't.  This time he should keep
completely quiet. He raised his head up and stood up.  An inch from his face was the
nose and teeth of a huge monster. A Tyrannosaurus  Rex. Titanic, gigantic.
Dripping meat and blood between its teeth. Miner meat,  miner blood. Jesse
swallowed. His eyes somehow focused on two far apart eyes  that eyeballed him.
"Jesse, don't move, not  even an inch and don't make a sound!"
That was the Doctor's  voice. Not even he could save Jesse, Jesse knew it. If
he reached out, his hand  would hit the monster's rough scaly skin.
Jesse murmured, "Well, I  finally got to meet a dinosaur..."
The monster's teeth parted  as it made to swallow Jesse up whole!!!!!
