A Quick Visit

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

The morning air with bright with the birdsong that filled the peaceful neighbourhood as the white camery pulled up outside number two. Sky sat in the drivers seat for a moment, thinking deeply before she climbed out of the car and moved in silence towards the door, her old light blue sneakers dragging slightly across the ground as she brushed her hair out of her eyes and leapt with ease up the stairs before knocking on the door, looking down at her feet.

[Rose Brennan]

Rose opened one eye and groaned as she heard the door. She pulled her thin frame out of bed and hurried to the window to see who it was. A shadow from the balcony masked her view and she growled in frustration. She never like opening the door to someone she didn't know, it could be anyone. She pulled on a blue silk dressing gown and hurried to the door. Her blonde hair swung in her soft hazel eyes and she brushed it away with a fustrated hand "Hello?" she called, when she recieved no answer she opened the door and saw...her daughter. She was looking at her feet which wore two blue sneakers like her father's white ones and she looked so much older. With a gasp Rose flung her arms around Sky and puled her close.

Sky gave a small yelp of surprise before the shock wore off and she laughed, wrapping her arms around rose with a grin. 'Hey Mum!' she said brightly, taking a step back to try and get her breath back. 'Sorry, I've been meaning to drop by for a while now but I just got really busy at collage and with Torchwood so I just didn't have the time until now and that's just because for once I'm not working or studing, but how are you?' Sky asked with a grin, her eyes glittering softly as she glanced behind her before back at Rose again.

[Rose Brennan]

Rose smiled and ran a hand through her daughters hair "I've been great sweet heart, very boring but there you go" she placed a hand on her daughters chek "Come inside" she said softly, ushering her daughter into her, surprisingly neat, home. Everywhere was a warm pink in the kitchen and a huge wooden table was in the middle. Rose bustled in "I'll make some tea" she said, sounding so much lie her mother it was funny.

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky grinned, moving inside quickly and loking back to Rose with a soft smile across her features as she brushed her hair over her shoulders lightly as she wathed her mother with faint amusment at how she acted so much like her nan. 'Mum, you haven't seen dad at all have you? I got separated from him and really, you don't want to know how all it involoved was me ending up in hospital with a broken leg.'

[Rose Brennan]

Rose shivered "Your right, I don't" she said fretfully, as she poured the boiling water into the blue teapot; she, unlike her mother had at her age, was able to afford little things like it. A sigh escaped her lips as she thought about her husband "If I knew where he was Sky, I wouldn' be here right now" her eyes glazed over and she rubbed them furiously with the back of her hand.

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky nodded thoughtfully, sitting down at the table as she sighed deeply, putting her face in her hands for a moment before looking up and pulling out her mobile as it made a noise. 'Sorry, Lilly is anoying me again,' she said as she quickly texted back before putting her mobile away again. 'Well, I'm meeting with Jack this afternoon to talk about something, you can come if you want,' she said brightly, thinking still.

[Rose Brennan]

Rose smiled "Sounds good" she picked up the mugs from the counter and put the down on the table. "Now" she said, sitting down opposite her "I want to know whats going on in your life, what are you studying at the college hmm?" she grinned and laughed, her hazel eyes dancing "I'm acting so much like mum!" she laughed, brushing away thehair that had fallen in her eyes.

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky gave a small laugh, nodding in agreement. 'Ah, just what you'd expect really, science with majors in Biology and astronomy,' she said, taking a small sip of tea. 'Other than that, nothing exciting has been happening apart from Torchwood which has even been quiet,' she sighed, running her fingered through her hair.

[Rose Brennan]

"Typical you" Rose said with a smile, placing her hand on Skys "Maybe I could come an pick you up sometime? Or would that embarass you?" she'd doen well in some of her GCSE's but had never persued it, now she wished she had. She'd never been as clever as The Doctor or Sky and it sometimes made her feel stupid. But what did it matter? She had her daughter at last.

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky smiled softly, brsuhing her hair back again with her other hand. 'Nah, it's alright, a bit easier to drive at this moment, since most days I have work straight after,' she said with a sigh, blinking away her thoughts quickly as she relised she was daydreaming again. 'Surly you've done something while dad and I were gone?' she said brightly, trying to change the subject.

[Rose Brennan]

Rose shrugged "I've built the reputation as the scary lady next door" she stated with almost no feeling to her voice "And I've done up this place, it was the place that was falling down so I think I've done a good job" she smiled "Your working at Torchwood am I right?"

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky grinned, nodding to all the coments. 'Yeah, Yeah, Jack's my boss and it is better than working at a take-a-way,' she said brightly as she did love working with torchwood. She gave a deep sigh, looking at her watch quickly before back up at Rose softly.

[Rose Brennan]

Rose smiled "Jack as a boss?" she almost laughed "Can't imagine that" she watched as Sky glanced at her watch. She recognised it as the one she'd bought her for her eightenth birthday "Got to be somewhere?" she asked gently, time passed quickly and no one could stop it.

[://Ðøçtøя §kÿ]

Sky grinned brightly shaking her head. 'Not till mid-day when I have to go back to the Collage for sport,' she said, thinking for a moment. 'But I did want to take Patch out for a run this morning since I'm working till late,' she said thoughtfully. 'Sorry, Patch is my Border Collie back at home,' she said.
