This is a short something I wrote while season four was airing. I found it, dusty and forgotten on an old shelf, and thought I'd hold it up to the light and let the world have a look.

I'm pretty new at this whole fan-fic thing; constructive criticism is very welcome!

Saying Goodbye

"Doctor …"

She's leaving.

"I've been thinking about it, and …"

He knows before she says it.

"… I'm going home."

But, why?

"I had so many places I wanted to show you.."

He has to tell her.

"Thank you."

Seize the opportunity, now …

"Thank you,"

while he has the chance.

"Donna Noble,"

Take the time to tell her what their time together has meant to him,

"It's been … really …"

Take the time to tell her what she means to him.

"You saved my life …"

Because sometimes,

"… in so many ways"

You only get two minutes.
