Hi, So I've re-done this chapter because i wanted to. Um just so you are clear its set i think after Idiots Lantern before the Doctor says he believes in Rose. So they've met Sarah Jane and everything but Mickey didn't decide to stay on the parallel universe. He left the TARDIS pretty much after the Age of Steel and went back home to look after Jackie.
Disclaimer: Don't own Doctor Who though i wish i did.
Rose's POV
"Doctor I love you. You can't just leave me. Please! Please take me with you."
There was just a shake of his head. I broke down. I couldn't do anything. I sank to the floor of the consol room; a room that was once my favourite place in the universe.
I tried again. "Doctor please, don't do another Sarah Jane"
I saw him wince at her name. He knew that I had struck a chord.
"You promised me. I wasn't going to be left behind. You said not me."
"Promises can be broken." His voice was flat. There was no emotion anywhere.
"I love you." I choked.
My throat was dry. I couldn't cope with this.
"Rose Tyler." I lifted my head to find him looking at me. "Rose Tyler. You have no idea how much I care for you. How much I love you. You have no idea."
I was confused. If he loved like he said then why was he doing this to me?
"But…" He cut me off.
"I have never loved someone like I love you Rose. It's not that I can't love you but when you are gone I won't be able to go on. I won't cope. I will die of broken hearts. That can and will happen if I let this get out of hand. I have already let this get too far. I will not be able to cope at all. Watching you wither and die away like a flower. Can't you understand? I want to remember you for all of time. It's selfish I know but that's just who I am and you can't change that. I love you too much to let you die in front of me."
I swallowed. Looking into his eyes there was no hidden lie. It was the complete truth. He loved me. That was a clear as day. And yet I was being exiled. Back to the stinking planet on which I was born.
"All those things we've done together. Am I just supposed to forget that?" I was annoyed now. This couldn't be happening.
"I can't help you there Rose. Please go now." I stood up slowly and looked around the room.
It looked the same as the first time I walked in. Nothing ever changed.
"Doctor you will remain here forever. When you think of me, think of this moment and how much pain you have caused me. I regret to say this but you have now ruined my life. Enjoy that knowledge Doctor because I will always love you."
He said nothing. He wasn't even looking at me anymore.
His eyes had drifted to the floor in what seemed like shame. I felt guilty for saying those things but it was true. I walked outside the TARDIS and watched it disappear for the last time.
My life would never be the same.
The Doctor's POV
It's been years since I told Rose to leave.
I walk my ship alone.
My footsteps echo along the walls. I'm more alone then I have ever been in my entire life time. Nothing is the same anymore
Everyday I find another item of her clothing or possessions. And each time it cuts me deeper.
Rose was wrong.
I don't die quickly. My pain is twice the amount she would ever feel.
Two hearts twice the amount of love.
I had double cracks in my body. I lived forever.
Time slowly eating away at me from the inside.
Something no amount of regenerations would fix. I don't go anywhere anymore.
Just floated in the Time Vortex hoping that maybe one day things might get better.
I thought maybe I could go back to Rose.
Tell her I made a mistake. But I didn't have the strength anymore.
She had taken it all with her when she walked out those doors.
Sitting in my lab I imagined ways I could make her stay with me forever.
Was there a way to create a Timelord out of human?
Surely I could create a way.
I would create a way.
I am the Doctor, the last Timelord.
I can do anything.
Well i hope you enjoyed that. There will be more, i think.
Please review xox
