A/N:I stayed up SOOOOOO late writing this (and watching Voyage of the Damned). I hope it sounds okay...
Wow... It looks so short! TT

"I love you but you cannot be mine." I couldn't properly see Rose's eyes during our parting, but if I had, they would have said that. And if she had felt like he had felt, and those three words that she had said hadn't been the half of it. I wish I had been able to see her eyes just then. That is one thing that I truly regret, now that everything is said and done, not being able to see her eyes. They were so honest, her eyes. I always admired that honesty.
I never got to say what I wanted to, that's the other thing I regret.

"I love you, but somewhere out there, someone who needs you, Doctor." Martha's eyes said that. And they were so sad... but they were a different kind of sad than I was used to seeing in her beautiful eyes. More deep, more pained, but there was strength there. There had always been strength with her. Strength and wit. I always admired that strength.
"What if you need me?" Mine said. But look back, 'What if I need you.' But I never would have said that, let alone consciously think it.
--
Now, at the end of it all, I realize that I am more human than I thought. I have loved, and I have lost, but I have survived. I have given myself completely to a single person, only to have her wrenched from my grasp, and yet I found a way to live. I found someone to heal my wounds only to have pushed her away and realize it too late to ask her to stay, but I lived with my mistakes and found a new way to carry on. I had always admired humans for that.
I suppose I must have absorbed a bit of it.

I don't even know what year it is. They must be dead by now, those two. Maybe I'll see them. I hope I'll see them. I'll tell them what they meant to me, what they led me to become. I am proud of myself now, at the end of all things. I can truly say that I lived... because I loved.
I was the last of the Time Lords once. Now I gaze at the end, and realize that I was one of the last humans as well...

A/N: Well... what do you think? R/R plz.
I feel dirty for including Rose... Blech! Don't hate me. I love you:3
Also, I was thinking of writing a companion piece to this. Maybe one for Rose, and one for Martha... Or maybe one for the Doctor seeing them after he's died... I can't decide.
