So I am having serious writer's block in my Harry Potter fan-fictions, and I think that is partially to blame because I have been watching Doctor Who. Anyway, I've been watching it on Netflix from the beginning of Nine. I have just begun Season 3 and I have yet to recover from the traumatizing event of Rose leaving. This brings me to my story's beginning….read and review!

The suction was unbelievable, but he couldn't take his eyes off Rose. She had been difficult from the start, and once again here he was hoping that she would be strong enough to withstand this. So far so good, she was holding on to the weight tight, The Cybermen and the Daleks were being sucked away into the void. The Doctor began to sigh in relief, but when he glanced again at Rose, he saw she was moving away from safety. "Rose," he shouted over the wind. Rose just looked at him and smiled as she pulled the lever back into the open position. A grin spread across his face as he felt the last of the creatures being pulled into the void, and as suddenly as it came, it was gone. Rose was slipping. He knew there was nothing he could do, "Hold on Rose! Please hold on! Be strong Rose! It's almost over!" It was too late, her grip faulted and she was flying into the void, but just in time Pete Tyler (Rose's father) jumped across the parallel universe and took her to a world the Doctor could never visit.
Shortly after Rose disappeared, the void closed. He ran to the wall the void portal was, and just placed his hand on it. He could almost feel his dear Rose just on the other side. In a parallel world, she was in the same spot he was right now.
Rose
"Doctor! Doctor please," Rose cried into the wall as her parents and Mickey looked on. It hadn't taken Mickey long to realize Rose would never love him the way she loves the Doctor, but that hadn't changed the promise he had made years ago to protect her. When she left to see the universe with a stranger, he had felt hurt and betrayed, but in doing his own travels with them, he finally understood there was to it than just sight-seeing for her. Now, the woman he had once loved was weeping uncontrollably over the man who had become her soul-mate. After an hour, Pete and Jackie had left Mickey and Rose. They were going to finally enjoy the life they had never been able to have. "Doctor come back please. I can't live this life without you," Rose whispered into the wall. Mickey knew she was wearing down. Soon he could take her home. Suddenly, she stood up and laid her face against the wall, tears still streaming down her face. "Rose," Mickey said hesitantly. "Shhhh!" He fell silent. "I love you Doctor," Rose whispered just before she pressed a single kiss to the wall and stepped back. Without taking her eyes off the spot she kissed she said, "Take me home Mickey. He is gone. I'm not going to stare at this pick of rock all day. You know the rules as well as I do. He is gone." Mickey slung his arm around her shoulders and steered a still crying Rose down the hall and away from that spot.
Doctor
He wasn't sure how long he stood there. His heart was shattered, yet the tears wouldn't come. Memories flooded him in waves, good and bad. They were all of Rose. She had nearly died trying to remain with him when he sent her away by looking into the TARDIS. He may have had to regenerate and regain her trust, but he was still with Rose. With Rose. Those words never stung more. Out of all the companions, he loved them all in different ways of course, but Rose was special. So very special. When he first promised Jackie to keep her safe, Rose was brilliant to just have around. Over time though, his two hearts would beat faster whenever she was around. Rose. He suddenly felt very cold and realized he was kneeling on the floor with his head against the wall. Had Gallifrey been around, he would travel home and be able to use the technology of his people to find a hole in time to rescue her. "Ohhhhh it's brilliant just brilliant," the Doctor shouted as he jumped up and ran to the TARDIS.
"Come on sweetheart! We are going to touch the edge of the universe my dear," he shouted as he danced around the controls pressing buttons and giggling. The TARDIS spurted replies and took off through time and space. As he spun on his heel, he caught sight of a flash of purple. On the railing, one of Rose's sweaters was laying right where she had tossed it off. "Rose," the Doctor whispered as he picked up the piece of fabric. He held it close to his hearts, "I'm going to come for you my dear, I promise."
3 Earth Months Later
Rose
As Rose tossed and turned in her sleep, her family and Mickey were downstairs making breakfast. "Rose," said a voice on the wind. "Rose," it whispered again. Her eyes popped open. "Doctor," she whispered. "Mum," she shouted as she ran down the stairs. "Mum we have to go now! It's the Doctor. I dunno how but, well come on!" Jackie and Pete grabbed some bags out of the hall and started packing. "Mickey, I dunno how, but I heard him. I know where I need to be to see him one last time," Rose said as she hugged him. Mickey was relieved to finally see a smile on her face. "Alright Rose, lead the way," he said as he hugged her tightly, "Let's go get your Doctor!" They drove and drove until Rose finally asked Pete to stop. She loved having both her parents back together, she had only been six months old when the Pete from her world had died, but the Doctor was special, and she needed him.
She jumped out of the jeep and almost ran down the beach, "Doctor," she called out into the air. "Doctor?" Then she saw it: An image appearing a few yards in front of her. She ran to the spot and waited. A ghost-like image of the Doctor appeared. "Rose Tyler," he greeted her with his big goofy grin. "Doctor, can I touch you," she questioned. "No, I'm just a picture sadly. You'll go right through." She furrowed her brow, "you look like a ghost." The Doctor jumped, "Right sorry!" He pointed the sonic screwdriver at something to his left, and suddenly he became clear. "Much better wouldn't you say? Now, I've only got about two minutes Rose." She started to cry, "Will I ever see you again?" The Doctor sighed, "Rose, the chances are small, but I'm on my way currently to see if I can buy some technology from a sort-of genius race to maybe jump to you and then back here. Back on Gallifrey, when my people were alive, we traveled to other dimensions. After the Time War though, well, I'm wasting time! You know the story! I'm going to do my best to get back to you" "Doctor," she whispered through her tears, "I love you." He smiled his quirky smile, "Rose Tyler, well does it need saying?" Her tears stopped nearly immediately, "Say it Doctor! Never once did you say it to me! Say it Doctor!" He giggled, "I love you too Rose. Stay safe sweetie. I'm coming for you." He blew her a kiss and then he was gone.
Doctor
Finally, the tears. In 900 years, he had never told another living soul he loved them, outside of his own race of course. In all honesty, he really does love Rose. Even if her life is limited, he can live it with her, by her side. He turned around in the TARDIS and there stood a woman in a wedding dress! She fired questions at him left and right and he could only reply with, "what?" Once he was able to question her, he figured out where she needed to be, and dropped her off. Normally, he would be interested in how a human got into the TARDIS while she was in transit, but he had more pressing matters. 900 years of protecting the human race, and many companions later, he had finally found someone to love. Martha had attempted to seduce him, but his two hearts only beat for Rose. He had taken her on a thank you trip, but dropped her off right after. If he was going to have a traveling partner to help find Rose, they would have to be male. Rose is a touchy woman, and simply meeting a former companion set her off. "Off to Sleoov," he shouted at the column in the center of the TARDIS.

I don't like Donna, or Martha. I refuse to use them, but I may change my mind. I will probably introduce a male companion, because I fear the Doctor may go mad if I don't, talking to thin air and such.
"Then, don't step on any butterflies. What have butterflies ever done to you?"~The Doctor
Much love to my fellow Gallifreyans!
