Hello, my first ever Doctor Who story here, please read and review!

I dont own anything in this story, and I honestly don't know where it's going to lead me but i'm hoping it's somewhere good. It's set a few weeks after the dreamlord encounter. Enjoy!


Goodnight My Sweetheart.

This is the story of Amelia Pond.

'I used to tell myself fate didn't exist.

I told myself I wasn't important to the world, I had no purpose.

But our fates were intertwined,

And my purpose was to save him.

Just like he saved me.'


Amy's POV

I would come back one day, come back to the big blue box - to my Doctor. His key hung heavy on my chest, almost burning against my skin in protest to my decision. I didn't look back; I wanted to remember a face of happiness. How the excitement glinted in his eyes when he opened those doors to a whole new world. I wanted to remember the adventures we had together, the wonder we experienced and the thrills we felt. I closed my eyes at the thought, savouring every image that flickered through my worn out mind.

'Amy.' He pleaded. He needn't say no more, I knew what he meant. Don't go. Don't leave me alone. He didn't understand, he didn't realise why I had to go, why it was better for him and why I couldn't tell him.

'I'll come back for you.' I whispered, I continued walking towards the decrepit house in the distance, the leaves rustling under my feet, the sun setting on the horizon. A single tear rolled down my check, I wiped it away in anger. I would not break down here, I would not let him see how much this pained me, otherwise he would never leave.

And then I heard the bittersweet sound of the TARDIS. Its machines whirring into action, aching for another adventure and to be somewhere other than here. I turned around to see it fading into time.


The world hadn't changed much since Amelia Pond had stepped into the TARDIS so long ago. The old house she and her aunt had lived still stood. The place where Rory had proposed, where the Doctor had eaten fish fingers and custard and where Amelia had first started her life in England. The world still revolved whilst she'd travelled through its many secrets and there was no sign that she'd ever left it.

Why had she left him? The answer was simple. She had to save him. The Dream Lord - 'the other doctor' - had told her what to do whilst the Doctor and Rory had been in Upper Leadworth. She had to find Martha Jones.
