I sat on a cliff edge poring over my blue notebook. Living in this computer was a strange experience, knowing that although you were alive, you weren't. I shook my head, my mass of curls falling into my face. I huffed out a harsh breath trying to force them out of my face. I sighed, placing the notebook in my lap, watching it carefully as I tucked a few locks of my unruly hair behind my ears.
I turned the page I had been reading and realized that it was the last page I had written. I knew what would happen now. Its what always happens when I'm out of stories to remember. New stories must begin.
I stared out over the abyss, waiting for that beautiful awful sound. No matter how many times I stopped the unnatural noise from happening, that man would always mess with the controls until he turned the parking break on again, and the sound continued. I swear he drives me insane sometimes.
Just as I had been waiting so long I thought I must be wrong, that he wasn't going to show, I felt the presence of someone standing behind me. I turned around and grinned." Hello Sweetie. Finally leaving the parking brake alone now are you?" I asked, getting to my feet. I slid my journal into one of my pockets. Doctor shrugged, smiling with his hands in his pockets"I decided Id try it out." he said, then started walking back back to the Tardis when I noticed what was on his head. Partially covering his extremely long half of his hair was a fez. "Again with that?" I sighed, shaking my head.
He stopped amd turned around."What? I'm wearing fezs, fezi,I am wearing a fez again." he said proudly after trying every possibilty, and just like the fez's appearance, it just wasn't going to happen. I stepped towards him with a smile and looked at Tardis,"Are we going on an adventure?" I asked him. He nodded smiling at both me and the Tardis. I shook my head." Something just isn't right." I said slowly, as if trying to figure out what. Doctor looked inside the Tardis."What?" I snatched the fez off his head and moved back to where I had been waiting for him. I held the hat over the edge, holding it only by the tassel. I waited for him to get nearly close enough to grab the fez before dropping it.
"What was that?" he asked, staring over the edge as if hoping to see it hooked on a ledge or something. I shook my head with a smile."You should know by now that I wouldn't let it be recoverable." I said, sashaying (I know its spelled wrong, I just like the word) into the Tardis. I looked back and saw him on his hands and knees peering over the edge."Come on!" I called, using large hand gestures to tell him to come over. "I thought we were going somewhere!" he stood up and brushed himself off. "We are." he smiled walking over. I sighed, meeting him at the door."Sweetie," he had straightened and brushed off everything but that silly bowtie of his. I reaches up to wipe off some dirt and adjusted it properly.
He strode into the Tardis to make sure it looked alright, I laughed."D you really think Id mess up your handsome bowtie?" I winked. He shook his head as he checked it anyway."Never Professor Song, " he turned to face me. "So may I ask how I got here?" At first I was confused by his question, then realization dawned upon me. The Doctor who talked to me in the library was the previous regeneration and although the one standing before me knew where I was, how he got there was a mystery to me as well.
I leaned against the Tardis console."Honestly sweetie, I don't know." I admitted. "I've noticed," I pulled out my notebook to show him what I meant as I talked. He came over quickly."So I finally get to see what's inside the journal." he said excitedly like a little boy on Christmas Day. I nodded,"Of course." I opened to the section that I began writing once I came into the computer thing. "I've noticed, so has my team if you remember them at all." I looked at Doctor and he nodded, I couldn't tell if he really remembered or not so I continued."We've noticed that life is very easy here, if you want it to be. Or however you want it to be. The first thing that happened to me when I got here was to see my team again. We were able to be together again and talk just like before. Except of course that we are living in a computer of sorts." Doctor nodded and gestured for me to go on. I gave him a look sarcastic shock."Impatient aren't we?" he shrugged, "So what else?" he asked. I turned back to the journal flipping pages as I explained. "Anything we wanted we have. Such as for the first week or so I was trying to find some new clothes, but with all the people but us gone, nothing. So I went back to my house and stared at my near empty closet thinking about the dresses and outfits I wanted. I opened my eyes and it was like wishing on a star, poof, there they were.
"Later I realized I didn't have this," I sort of stroked my journal,"So I thought about wanting it and there it was, right in the palm of my hand with a pen hooked on the final page I had written and a bookmark on my favorite adventures. Looking through those adventures I realized how much I missed you." I had to stop for a moment."I had decided that you were gone, once I said 'Spoilers' that last time I thought I could never see you again." my eyes began to sparkle with tears, I wasn't usually an emotional girl, but now, here I let the tears gather."So I wished for you, I wished for that Police Box and I thought about the parking brake. I thought about when she taught me to drive her. I thought of the day I tried to kill you. For weeks I thought of nothing but you. I had shoved you aside in my mind, allowing you to pop up now and again since I came, but I knew I couldn't let that become a driving force, I wanted to have a good, great life with my team, who was more like my family. I couldn't give them that if I was always moping about you, so I locked all those thoughts away."
I ran my fingers along his bowtie, his coat, and his lopsided hair, as if I had to touch him for him to be real."So I continued as I always had, but instead of locking you away, I thought of you whenever I could. I missed you so much sweetie. I missed that stupid fez, I can't believe I missed that thing!" I shook my head in disbelief while he laughed."Fezes are cool." he said cockily. I smiled," I started to spend more and more time pouring over this journal, never wanting to reach the end. Because it always seemed," now silent tears began making tracks on my face." it always seemed that after I had written my last entry and reread it along with the other stories, you would show up."
I felt tears running over my lips and I could taste the saltiness. My vision was blurring and I raised a hand to wipe my eyes, but he got there first. Gently he brushed his hand against my blinking eyelids wiping away the tears, though I knew they would be replaced. "I didn't want to be disappointed, get to the end, and you not show up. Today I finally decided to finish the journal and from there I would either never leave your side, or, I didn't even allow myself to imagine the other possibility, I would face that only when I had to. So I hoped, and I dreamed about you. Then I found somewhere to be alone and I read. I opened to the first page." I flicked to the beginning."All the way to the end of what's been written." I turned to the final page."And just as I was losing hope, that this wonderous world couldn't give me what I wanted most, you were behind me."
I looked straight at Doctor, "I may be human, but we both know I'm more than that. And these humany happy tears, the ones mum and dad cried when they saw each other again at Demon's Run and I was in their arms."Once again Doctor, with his usual smile replaced by sobriety, not sadness, just a solemn look, brushed away my tears."Dad told me that you didn't crying and kissing, but you came over to see me because he told you to." I tried to gather my thoughts to say more, but now I could see wet tracks on his cheeks from his eyes, tears, that I hoped were the happy, shocked tears that fell from my eyes. All I could say is,"I hope you don't care anymore". We moved towards eachother at the same moment. He tangled his fingers in my hair of madness, while I couldn't hold him close enough as we kissed. I felt him press me closer to him and I didn't dare resist. I wanted him so much, I had wished and dreamed for so long and he was finally here. I didn't care if he was something created by the computer, all I cared was that he was here. He broke away to smile and say"Look at your hair." I stroked his cheek."Shut up sweetie." I said kissing him again.
Eventually we separated, though he still held my arms and I held his. We stood there in silence for a while, just trying to understand that we were both really there. Then he smiled his childish smile."Ready for a new adventure?" he asked, I laughed."You know this answer to that sweetie". We both began moving around the console flipping switches and turning knobs, I didnt have a clue where the old girl was taking us, so I hoped he knew.
