A/N: Okay so I do not own Doctor Who. Also for people following my account, I am not abandoning Back to You, I just had this idea and really wanted to post it. Think of it as I now have two different 'verse's 'Back to You' and 'An Uncertain Voyage'.

Chapter One- Words Unsaid

Doctor POV

I had felt this storm coming for months and now here we were, a battle between Daleks, Cybermen and the Human Race. Luckily I figured out how to get rid of them, unfortunately it was dangerous and Rose as always refused to go. I tried to send her to the parallel world, where she could be with her mum, a parallel version of her dad and Mickey. When she refused her mother said she wasn't going Rose insisted she go, even though I don't think she really wanted to but part of her must have because she agreed. So off they went and Rose and I got to work on reversing the pull of the void to suck the Cybermen and Daleks back in.

Now I was watching her as she held onto the lever instead of the magna clamp because a Dalek hit the lever and put it offline. I could tell it was too much, oh I'm so glad I hadn't sent her away like I'd wanted to, or the pull would have been stronger. She only had a couple of fingers curled around the lever at this point but I could feel the pull starting to subside and the flow of Cybermen and Daleks was getting slower. Suddenly her last fingers slipped and she screamed. I knew I must have been as well but all I could do was watch in horror as the woman I- no stop it- cared deeply for was pulled toward the void, then suddenly it closed, turned off, and she fell to the floor.

"Rose!" I shouted releasing my grip on the magna clamp and running to her, "Rose," I said again and turned her over. She had landed on her front and already had a large bruise forming on her forehead and wrist, I could also tell she had a couple of dislocated fingers just by looking at them. I scooped her up into my arms and rushed off to get to the TARDIS. "It's okay, you're going to be fine Rose, you hear me? Absolutely fine," I whispered to her as I walked and stepped over bodies of humans and cyberman alike.

Finally I made it down the stairs and instead of trying to use my key to unlock it I reached up to Rose's neck and grabbed the chain that rested there revealing the key that had been tucked into her top. I crouched to unlock the door, then kicked it open with my foot and then again to close it behind me once I was inside. I continued down the corridor to the med-bay and laid her down on the single bed. I grabbed the wand for the scanner and ran the large instrument over her whole body then moved to the monitor to look at the results. She had a broken wrist, several dislocated fingers, a dislocated shoulder, a severe hematoma on her skull, and somehow a broken toe. Course she may have broken the toe earlier, it may not have been from the fall. I grabbed a small needle and took a sample of blood and put it into the scanner just to get more full results and what I saw shocked me. Her DNA, it was wrong, it wasn't all human, and her cellular regeneration rate was more than triple what a human her age should be.

I switched back to the scan results and looked more closely at her brain, even though we had been in here several times, she had never had a head injury so I had only scanned the areas I needed, or took blood samples to make sure a cut wouldn't get infected, although the amount of changes to her DNA wouldn't have just happened in the last few weeks. Oh my stupid, meddling ship.

"Why did you hide that from me?" I shouted at the ceiling and received only an unaffected humming in return. The more I thought about it though, the more it made sense, I had been able to feel this storm coming for months, there were so many timelines where we were separated and only a few where we weren't, the TARDIS had simply been trying to prevent pain of knowing Rose could have spent hundreds of years with me. I had been avoiding saying and doing so many things though because I thought she had a normal human lifespan and telling her how I feel or being involved with her would have been more painful when she was gone. I heard groaning from behind me and turned to see Rose starting to move around.

I rushed to her side and soon her eyes fluttered open, "Doctor?" she asked her eyes still unfocused. My heart's soared in my chest when she spoke. "Why does everything hurt?"

"I'm right here Rose, and you fell when the Void closed in on itself. You're pretty banged up, couple broken bones, couple dislocated joints and you bruised your skull." I told her as I smoothed her hair, I couldn't help smiling at her. She smiled back though a confused look on her face. "Let's get you fixed up, we'll start by putting your fingers back in their sockets," I said grabbing her hand and she winced when she saw them, the knuckles were purple and swollen. I put her fingers where they should be then moved on to her shoulder. I moved to the cabinet and grabbed a removable cast so she would be able to take it off to shower, I also grabbed medical tape and gauze. I put the cast on her arm then moved to her feet and pulled off her trainers and one sock. I braced her broken toe to another with tape then wrapped it in gauze to cushion it. I looked up and saw her watching me chewing on her bottom lip nervously. I just smiled then put her sock back over her foot and went to the small freezer and grabbed an icepack for her head.

"There's something else Rose, the TARDIS must have been hiding it from me, she would have known this was coming too, more so than me. Your DNA, it's changed, your cellular regeneration rate is higher than any humans should be really." I said rubbing the back of my neck. She just pinched her brows together in a frown.

"What does that mean exactly?" she asked.

"It means, your life will be several hundred years longer than a humans," I said, then added, "and by the looks of it, you won't even look ten years older than you do now." She just stared at me, her eyes wide in wonder.

"How exactly did this happen though Doctor? Is it from traveling on the TARDIS or something?" She asked me.

"Well not that, no, it does have something to do with the TARDIS though, just two words, Bad Wolf," I told her.

"So you think all that happened in the few minutes I was Bad Wolf?" she asked still confused.

"No, I think some of the heart of the TARDIS stayed inside you, and it's been changing your DNA since," I said and she just nodded.

"Um, I think I'm gonna go change out of these clothes and then how about I meet you in the library?" she asked after a few moments.

"Okay," I said smiling at her. She got up and I watched as she left. Oh she's going to be able to be with me for my forever, maybe or close to it. But she's never going to be able to see her mother again, and she didn't even get to say a proper goodbye because of all the chaos and rushing. I just finished putting the things I had used away then walked out to the console room to put us into the vortex. Once we were safely in the vortex I made my way back into the corridor and headed towards the library. When I walked in Rose was sitting on the couch near the fireplace. I walked over to her and stood in front of the couch and she smiled when she saw me then patted the cushion next to her for me to sit. I took a seat and looked at her since she didn't have a book so she obviously wanted to talk.

"Doctor, when I was slipping off that lever, I told myself if I held on, I was going to tell you something I have just been avoiding for a long time. And then when you told me I was going to live to be several hundred years old at least, well I thought all the more reason." She began and then paused and took in a shakey breath. "I have thought about telling you this so many times and so many things have stopped me. So many different thoughts and reasons why. Mostly cowardice though."

"Rose, what is it, you're rambling," I told her. She just chuckled and looked down at her hands then back at me.

"Sorry, it's just more difficult than I thought." She said, "okay. I-I love you, Doctor. I have for so long, I was just never sure if you felt the same way. We always flirted and stuff but I thought, maybe he thinks its all innocent-" It came tumbling out and my heart soared. I knew how she felt, just like I thought she knew how I felt but when she said she had something to tell me I didn't think it was this, well maybe I did. I just leaned forward and kissed her before she could continue rambling. She let out a surprised squeak, followed by a content moan. She brought her arms up and wrapped them around the back of my neck, then moved closer so she was practically on my lap. Her tongue peaked out and brushed my lip and I opened my mouth letting her explore my mouth with her tongue as I did the same. I wrapped one arm around her waist and scooped her up, putting her thighs across my lap so she wouldn't hurt her toe as I continued kissing her. It could have been hours or minutes later when I finally pulled away and I couldn't care which.

"I love you too, Rose Tyler. I have since the beginning, since you risked your life swinging over a vat of living plastic on a rusty old chain to save some strange alien you just met." I told her, then gave her another quick kiss. She was smiling, but there were tears in her eyes, "What's the matter Rose?"

"Nothing is, I just didn't expect your reaction to be to kiss me, and then say it back. I especially didn't expect you to kiss me like that." She said with her tongue touched smile. I just grinned back and rested my forehead against hers.

"You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that, I always had an excuse, mostly, you were human and I would lose you." I said rubbing her nose with mine.

"Mmm," she responded, then yawned. I just chuckled.

"Alright, bed time for the, sort of human," I teased then put her feet on the floor and stood. "Come on, I'll walk you to your bedroom," I said holding my hand out to her and wiggling my fingers. She took my hand in her good one and stood. We made our way out of the library and down the corridor toward her bedroom. We stopped outside her door and she turned to me.

"Will you lay with me until I fall asleep, just so I know this is real, that I didn't fall into the void and am hallucinating this or something," she said looking up at me. I could never resist her so why start now.

"Of course," I told her and reached out and opened her door. I released her hand and removed my jacket draping it over a small chair then my tie and I laid down on the bed on top of the covers. She smiled and pulled back the covers and crawled under them then snuggled up to me. I smiled and wrapped an arm around her shoulders and kissed the top of her head, "Goodnight Rose."

"Goodnight Doctor," she responded. I laid there with her and began to doze off myself, I crawled out of the bed carefully and picked up my jacket and tie on the way out. I walked down to my own room and opened the door. I made my way in tossing the jacket and tie on the floor and unbuttoning my oxford, I tossed that on the floor as well as I made my way across the room. Then I toed out of my trainers and socks. Finally I unbuttoned my trousers and pushed them and my pants onto the floor. I opened my dresser drawer and grabbed a pair of black flannel jimjam bottoms and tossed them on, then climbed into my bed under the dark blue duvet. I hadn't slept in a couple of weeks and I was exhausted after today. I still felt bad about Rose's mum but there was nothing I could do. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

It must have been a few hours later when I woke, there may be a way I could contact Jackie across the Void, it would just take a lot of power but I just might be able to do it if I found the right power source. I hopped out of bed and ran out of my room not caring that I was only wearing a pair of flannel pajama bottoms, there was no time to waste.

A/N: So I hope you liked the first chapter, if you've read my other story you can see they are both different concepts. In this one they had no romantic relationship in the show. It's starting after they survive Doomsday. Okay so please leave a review, follow or favorite, or all 3. This will be mostly Doctor or 3rd person POV.
