Disclaimer: As much as it pains me to say, I do not own Doctor who. Just this story.
Hello everyone! This is my first fanfic, so hopefully it doesn't make anyone want to tear their hair out or anything. Do you guys think I should continue this, or make it a One Shot? Let me know!
Rose stood on the beach, gazing at where the TARDIS had been only moments before. How can he do this to me? AGAIN? And why the bloody HELL did I kiss this man??? I don't even KNOW him! She felt a hand slide into hers, and forgetting who he was, looked up into her Doctor's eyes. He's not your doctor she reminded herself. He's human. As she stared into those golden brown eyes, pain flickering in her own, she tried to find a difference in his features, but there wasn't one. He looked like the same Doctor she loved. She knew he only had one heart, but that was such a small difference. The thought was still hard to bear though, and she felt hot tears spill down her cheeks.. The Doctor saw this, and reached his other hand up to wipe them away. She looked down, and sighed softly.
Inside his own mind, The Doctor was having the same inner turmoil. He gazed down at her, and he knew she was in pain. She's just lost the man she tried so hard to find he thought. I mean, I know I'm him and he's me, but she doesn't know that. It's like she's just lost her dog, and then said dog's puppy comes along thinking it can take the dog's place. Ooooh, nice analogy. Better make a mental note of that one. Just like the one with the - waitwaitwait! I'm getting off track. Well, at least that hasn't changed. Though, my mole is now two inches lower on my back then it was...Anyways, what can I do to make her feel better??? He racked his brain, and then had a thought. The least I can do is reassure her that I care about her, just like I said! YES! I'msosmart! His thoughts were a flurry, but at least he knew what he was thinking.
"I meant what I said you know." he said aloud. She looked back up, confused. "I do love you, Rose Tyler. I am, in almost every way, the Time Lord Doctor. Same thoughts, same feelings, same memories. Same ramblings he added in his mind. Think of me as...another regeneration. Minus the lights and the exploding bit." He grinned at that, and she couldn't help but crack a smile.
Rose turned to face him and took both of his hands in her own. She gazed at him for a long moment, trying to decide what she wanted. He's the same man. He IS the Doctor. And I love him. I'm getting to spend my life with the man I love. How lucky am I? A lifetime with the best man for me. She broke into a shining smile, and looked him in the eyes. "I think I can do that." They both grinned and wrapped themselves in a hug. Rose pulled away for a moment to peck him on the lips, and they walked towards Jackie, perfectly content in their own little world. Yes, they both thought. A lifetime with the love of my life will be absolutely fantastic.
