Wait Until Morning was a Doctor Who Adventures comic strip published in 2011.
Summary
Christmas Day in 2011 and Gabriel is waiting to open his presents. He had been up since 4:45 a.m. and waits to wake his parents at 6:30.
Meanwhile, inside the TARDIS. The Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams are attempting to land inside a time bubble, a bubble that centres around Gabriel. Using his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor traces the source of the bubble, which has been responsible for what Gabriel believes are minutes but are actually weeks. Sensing Gabriel’s excitement about his present, the Doctor pursuades Gabriel to open it. Inside is a Stromini, a creature which has been feeding on Gabriel's anticipation.
Keeping the link between the Stromini and Gabriel open with his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor uses Gabriel’s disappointment at not getting what he was expecting to drain the creature of its energy. The weakened Stromini is taken aboard the TARDIS and a replacement present is left in exchange, though Gabriel must wait until morning
