Doctor Who – the Comfort
5th/Turlough
PG
" Come along," the Doctor snapped.
Turlough jumped, took one last look in the direction Tegan left, and entered the TARDIS. The door closed. A shuddering sigh passed over the Doctor's features. Turlough's heart sank. Could I possibly comfort someone like him?
" I'm sorry."
" You've done nothing wrong," the voice was hollow; uncharacteristic.
" Tegan..."
" Did what is best for her."
Words are useless. Turlough stepped up, uneasily embracing him from behind. He accepted this comfort, leaning into the young man. Turlough's lips rested on the back of his neck. The Doctor felt the small smile spreading across them. A different sort of shiver passed over his body.
