This is my new story and I'm not going to tell you much about it here but i just wanted to let you know that this chapter is a short one, yes, but I will be submitting another longer chapter later today and the continuing chapters should also be long. I hope you enjoy! and feedback as always is appreciated. Also, as you will have noticed, in the cover image for this story each of the people surrounding The Doctor are penciled out, as The Doctor meets each of these characters they will appear so keep an eye on them.
I went back to the bench then, after I'd done one last favour for Amelia. I sat and re-read her afterword, line after line, word after word, letter after letter. I remembered the smell of her, her smile. I remembered the smallest things, when she waved goodbye to her whole life on her wedding night and her face when I showed her that apple. I remembered fish fingers and custard and come along Pond. Then my mind drifted to Rory, The Last Centurion and I thought about him waiting 2000 years but mostly when I thought about Rory I thought about poor Brian. I could never see him again either, not because he was lost but because I couldn't look him in the eye. For hours I sat, thinking about The Girl Who Waited and The Last Centurion. Amy had told me not to be alone but I didn't know how I could let someone else even step foot inside the TARDIS. So I sat, I didn't look for anyone, I didn't think about anyone but as usual somebody, somehow managed to stumble into my life and make me smile again.
