It was done. She was gone. She would live out all of eternity in the libraries computer. He still had yet to discover who she really was but he knew he would have to wait, so he left her little tardis blue book sitting there and he and Donna got back in the tardis and left. He punched in the coordinates and leaned back against the railing with his hands in his pockets as he listened to the tardis engines hard at work.
But, he felt something in his pocket. An envelope? He didn't remember putting anything in there. He pulled it out and it was just as he had expected
An envelope.
The Doctor was confused. He certainly hadn't put that there.
He read the writing on the front. It read:
Spoilers! Do not open until the last time you ever see me. You will know when the time is right.
Love, River
He turned it over and saw that she had sealed it with a kiss.
Red lipstick.

" River!" The Doctor shouted, snapping out of his dream, he shot up out of bed, throwing the covers off of him and running to the consol room. He typed in a code on the keyboard and a small flap opened at the bottom of the consol just above the floor.
The Doctor lowered himself to look at the small flap. He reached his hand inside and slowly pulled out an envelope.
The envelope.
He pulled himself back up and took a seat on the old bench in front of the consol. Just sitting there staring at the envelope in his hands, he thought back to the previous day.
She had previously told him of her upcoming archaeology trip to the library. As she explained her upcoming trip to him with such enthusiasm, his heart sank. He desperately wanted to plead with her not to go but he knew he couldn't.
It was time.
So yesterday he woke up early, dressed himself up ( including the bowtie), and brought his lovely wife to spend the day at the singing towers of Darillium. As the sun set, the towers sang, and he cried. He tried to hide it from her but she saw. He wouldn't tell her why. He couldn't.
Thinking back, it all happened just as she had said it did all those years ago, and he hadn't even realized it until after she had left. Before she left though, he gave her his old skrew driver which he had made many modifications to, then she departed.
Now she was gone. That was the last time he'd ever see her.
Snapping out of his reverie, he looked back down at the envelope in his hands. He traced the words written on the front of the envelope with his fingertips, then turned it over and gently ran his thumb over the red lipstick. It looked exactly the way it did the day he discovered it in his pocket.
He brought the envelope to his lips and kissed the place that she had kissed. Pulling the envelope away from his face, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Opening his eyes, he looked down at the envelope again. He slowly and carefully opened the envelope and pulled out the letter. He unfolded the letter in his hands and began reading.
