Hey guys and girls! Here is the continuation of Josie's journey with the Doctor. So without further ado, I give you the prologue.
For as long as I can remember I've had dreams about the Doctor. And they were always so amazing and sometimes down right scary. For years I wished…hoped and prayed that the Doctor would up and whisk me away in his magic box. But it never happened. I was never discouraged by it though…well…there was one time when I was ten where I'd almost given up hope.
Then came a Scottish stranger. And he told me something that I will never forget.
"Hope is like a light in the dark. It can keep you going through the worst of times. So you want to cling onto hope as tightly as you can"
And so I did. Until the Doctor showed up in my life 11 years later. We pretty much hit it off straight away. Even gave each other nicknames!
~flashback~
"Wipe that stupid grin off your face", Josie lightly ordered "smug is not a good look on you…Spaceman".
"Oi!" the Doctor protested.
"You are an alien, hence spaceman", Josie shot back. The Doctor grumbled under his breath. The black haired girl could've sworn he called her 'Earth Girl'. "Did you just call me 'Earth Girl'?" she asked.
"Maybe", the Doctor admitted.
"Oh, you…" Josie let go of the console go for the Doctor with the intention of…actually she had no idea what she was gonna do, she just wanted to get him.
~end~
Then came the adventures which I was super hyped about having spent so long dreaming his past escapades. Some were fun. Like meeting Captain Jack Harkness. Boy was that man a massive flirt! He even tried it on with me until I put him straight. From then on he was like an annoying big brother.
A chuckle left Josie's lips as she remembered all those little moments between herself and Jack. The bantering…the playful digs at each other… the way Jack always remarked that she was 'one of a kind'. Sadness flickered across her face. She really missed the American man.
She took a breath to pull herself together and continued writing.
Some of the adventures were also downright terrifying. I really thought seeing a Dalek in my dreams was bad enough but to see it in person was even worse! Thank god for the Doctor.
The Doctor…
Her pen stuttered on the page and tears pricked in her eyes. She fiercely blinked them away and forced herself to keep going.
The Doctor…what can I say? He's amazing…occasionally impossible and downright annoying at times. Oh, and a mad man. I honestly wouldn't have him any other way.
And I cannot forget that we'd fallen in love. Me and the Doctor! Who would've thought that would happen? Certainly not me.
Josie touched the latest Doctor's portrait with a sad smile. She turned back to the page with the entry she was doing and picked up where she left off.
Of course being human meant that I couldn't stay with him forever. And you know, I was fine with that. Really I was. I…just never expected this to happen. I was expecting my tenure with the Doctor to come to a close with me going home, parting ways with him on good terms.
Then came the Army of Ghosts.
