Hey.

This is a Doctor Rose fanfic, not what I normally write (I don't really like Rose that much) but i found this on my hard drive and I was like, what the hell? May as well publish it.

Any way, it's just Eleven thinking about Rose and all the times Ten lost her.

Did you know? I'll always wonder that. Did you know that I loved you?

The first time we were truly separated in my tenth body, I put the device around your neck. You had turned around, so shocked that I would betray you like that, even as you disappeared into that other universe, the one that had never known Rose Marion Tyler. I turned, and attached the first clamp to the wall even as you reappeared. Of course you would.

The second time was barely five minutes later, when that cursed Dalek hit the lever, and you had to let go to push it back up. You lost your grip, and you were heading towards the crack, when Pete, wonderful Pete Tyler, your father who was never your father, came and saved you, and you were trapped in Pete's World.

The third time, I was burning up a sun to say goodbye. That was when you told me you loved me, but it was too late; you were on the other side of the void, we could never be together. And just when I was about to tell you back, our time was up. Again.

The fourth time, I left you, on that beach that, to me, symbolised heartbreak. I left you with a human me, my handy hand. I left you with another man, me, but not me, and I never did say those words, I got him to. I left while you were kissing him, and I left with the knowledge that if I ever did see you again, you would be happy. Happy with him.

And after I left, my hearts broken, I realised that Donna, my best friend, the best of the best, the Doctor Donna, would die if she stayed, my hearts broke further, and I swore never to take a companion again.

I broke that promise. Amy, bright, brilliant, feisty, ginger Amy Pond, saved me, like you did. She saved me from becoming the angry man you first met. She saved me from making bad decisions, and she gave me a new life, a new chance, a fresh slate with a new face.

I wonder if you would like her. Maybe, maybe not, but don't worry, I'm not interested in her like that. She's taken anyway, by Rory.

Rory Pond, now there is dedication. He waited two thousand years to protect her from harm, and still loved her at the end of it.

He died to save me, once, and I remember a conversation I had with him; "Your girlfriend isn't more important than the whole universe." He punched me. "She is to me."

They are up there now, in their room with the cool bunkbeds, doing whatever married people do nowadays. I can hear them, actually, they are getting closer. No doubt to demand an adventure, like they usually do. Oh well, back to business then, saving Earth or the universe.

You humans, you stupid apes, how will I ever finish saving you all?

But you know what, Rose Tyler, my love, I wouldn't have it any other way.
