Not quite sure what to think of last night's episode but I decided to write a story on Rose and her human Doctor although I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor who, if I did then last night's episode would not be such a mess actually…
She felt his hand grab hers as she watched the Tardis leave.
In a way, she was shocked to feel just how much his touch resembled that one of the Doctor, no it didn't just resemble, it was perfectly the same.
She looked up to see his face, staring down at her; his expression was so obvious to read.
It was a mixture of love, the same love the Doctor felt for her, worry and fear, the fear that he might not be enough for her, the fear that she might reject him now.
Rose was confused and sad about the way things turned down but she didn't want to reject him, part of her really wanted them to work this out and live together, the same part that wanted a life with the Doctor.
She squeezed his hand tighter and smiled at him in order to reassure him, relieve shown visible on his face.
He pulled her close and threw his arms around her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her.
He knew that he could never be the Doctor Rose had fallen in love with and that he could never give her the life she had expected to have when she managed to get back through the void but he would try to give her the life she deserved.
After a while they both turned around to face Jackie, he grabbed her hand as they walked towards her.
"So, I guess we go home now?"
Rose nodded silently the Doctor smiled.
Home, he didn't even know what that was and what was waiting for him there.
"It's a three mile walk till the first village, we can contact your dad and ask him for flight tickets and then we can take a train towards Oslo and wait for the plane there."
Rose smiled "I don't have any money"
"Trust your mum to think of things like that." Jackie answered.
The walk towards the nearby village was awkward, nobody spoke a word and as Jackie observed the pair she realised that they still had some issues to work out together.
The silence between the three of them made the walk seem endless but finally they reached the village.
Jackie walked into the local hotel to phone Pete and explain him the situation shortly while Rose and the Doctor stayed outside.
"Are you alright?"
Rose nodded, wrapping her arms around her.
This man wasn't completely her Doctor, she recognized him, tiny bits and pieces, but there was like he had said also a part of his past incarnation in him, she could see that in his eyes and the small bits of Donna that she had seen were visible in his manner as well.
Still she managed to convince herself that some day she might be able to love this Doctor just as much as she loved the other one.
Very, very short chapter I know, but I have to go and I really wanted to post this chapter.
