Spoilers-don't read if you haven't seen the Ep. Cold blood. Hope you like, I simply had to write this! Poor Rory! Please r/r

Remember Rory

It broke his heart. That was for sure, having to do what he did, having to watch what he had and not being able to do anything about it.

It would forever stick in his memory, but that was good. Somebody needed to remember Rory. Lovely Rory, Rory who cared for Amy so much, who was always there at the end of all things, to stand next to the Scottish red heads side.

When he got shot, the first thing he noticed was the pure shock of the event flash through Rory's eyes, and pure fear and agony fly through Amy's. She was losing him, all over again, she was having to say goodbye. Only this time; it wasn't a dream. There was no waking up in a freezing cold TARDIS, holding frozen hands again.

And that blasted crack! That horrible, mysterious god-forsaken crack, following them through time and space, eating everything in its path! It was coming for Rory; and Amy if the Doctor hadn't dragged her away.

That broke his heart even more then, when he had to manhandle her away, to physically overpower his friend and drag her away from the only solid person she's ever had in her life. The guy she loved.

He can remember how it felt, holding her trembling body against his, powerfully retching her away, feeling the movement of her ribs and heart constrict painfully beneath his arms. She had screamed and cried and fought back. He was glad she fought back, she had loved him, she was outraged, hurt and outraged and losing. That's right Amy; fight back, fight for Rory, keep that in your mind; Rory!

He had tried, and she had tried to get to keep Rory in her mind, 'Remember Rory, lovely Rory' He had said, looking deep into her shocked, pained eyes. Please Amy Pond; remember Rory. And she had tried; that's what hurt the most, she didn't want to forget….she had no choice.

And so Amelia Pond forgot; forgot her fiancé who she ran from, in the middle of the night with her child hood imaginary friend; the man who despite her brave exterior, she loved. She realized this when she thought she'd lost him the first time round. Watching her that time, next to the pile of dust, pregnant and confused, asking simply- to bring him back, that was hard, but to see her eyes now…at peace and ease, not knowing, not remembering what she had lost.

That was worse.

Poor Amelia Pond, he was your friend, your lover and you'll never know.

Poor Rory, lovely Rory, who no longer exists; except in the Doctors mind, he'll exist there, for as long as time itself; and in Amy's, when she sleeps and a lone figure enters her dreams and suddenly her heart will cry out, she'll remember you then.

Rory Williams, you had been, and you were, for a short while- living.

The end, hope all enjoyed. Disclaimer: I own nothing.
