And then he was gone. Just like that, the Doctor was gone. He disappeared with his all too familiar blue police box and she was alone. "Not again," she said quietly. "NOT AGAIN!" she started screaming. And now she was on her knees in the cold, wet, sand watching her tears drop quickly and steadily. "No," she told herself, "This isn't real, this can't be happening, this isn't real." But she knew. She knew too well that he had left her again, all alone in this cold miserable world that she was trapped in. She looked up at the sky, as if she would be able to see him, but all she saw was a vast grey sheet of nothingness. She fell to the ground completely, wanting nothing but to die then and there.
And then she felt a hand on her shoulder, a familiar hand, and for a moment she felt peaceful.
"Rose, you are not alone. You are never alone. You never will be." and Rose saw the doctor pulling her up onto his lap, and the last thing she remembered before the world went black was hearing the three words "I love you," being whispered into her ear.
