Author's Notes: Hello my lovely little aliens. You guys commented that you wanted the continuation of Doc's and Amelia's story so I have the first installment of the story, but with a twist. This is the Doc's POV. I hope you guys like, we're going to see a different side of the Doc that you didn't see in the beginning!

Without further adieu...(I own no one...except Amelia...)

When humans change, they change in very small ways: attitude, personality, maybe they even change the way they look, but Amelia…Amelia changed in a BIG way.

I had not expected her to survive the TARDIS or that poison. I never expected her to stay with me through all that had happened. She saw the worst in the galaxy and yet she stayed. She lived through my hate and she still stayed. She was tortured, beaten, lied to, and yet she stayed.

Why?

Why did this human choose to stay while anyone else would have left?

Although she said that she was happy, I hear her crying in her room. She's crying because she can never be a part of humanity again. She'll stay young and healthy while all her friends, her family, everyone she ever knew grows old and feeble.

The reality hit her harder than I thought it would and I know I've been no comfort to her. She pushes me away and tells me that she is fine, but she hides and lives in her room instead of acting like herself. I actually got to speak to her yesterday when she was in the kitchen. She looked hungry so I tried cooking her the amazing soup she made me, but she pushed it away and said she wasn't hungry.

I felt a punch in both of my hearts as I watched her walk away into her room where she would cry away her pain. I felt like I failed her and everyone. I failed her. I promised to protect her and now she is in more pain than I could ever imagine.

I was tightening a bolt on the TARDIS when I heard the soft sound of feet on the metal grate; I looked from under the control panel and saw Amelia, looking down at me with that adventurous gleam in her eyes.

"Hey Doc?"

"Y-yes?"

"Let's have an adventure."

I sat up too quick and hit my head against the paneling of the TARDIS. The ringing in my head was deafening, but it grew silent when Amelia rubbed her soft hand on the back of my head. She looked at me with that infamous smile on her face as she helped me up.

"Alright granddad, nice and easy."

"Who you calling 'granddad'?"

"You, Doc."

"Just cause I'm a little older than you…"

"You're almost a thousand years old!"

I shook my head, letting her win the argument; it felt good to smile and argue with Amelia again, even if it was only a little while. She hit my arm and forced me to look back at her, "Doc, can we go to Marianne's wedding. I can't miss my best friend's wedding."

I smiled as she told me the date and time of the wedding; she disappeared into the TARDIS to find something important while I guided the TARDIS to the destination.

Doctor…turn around…

Why?

Just turn around!

I rolled my eyes and turned around for a quick second, my jaw instantly dropping at Amelia. She was something out of a magazine for wedding dresses. She had a soft green dress with white lace around the skirt of the dress and her hair was in a braided crown. She looked…

"Fantastic."

"So will you, Doc."

My eyes expended to the size of dinner plates as she handed me a black suit with a mint green tie, "Go change, I'll keep my eyes on the TARDIS and call you when we land."

I grimaced at the horrid color of the tie, but I left the room to put it on; when I came back, Amelia was talking to the TARDIS in a conversation that she could only hear in her head.

"So how's the Doctor been holding up?"

Silence.

"Well, that's…good. I think I'm ready…"

Silence.

"Yes I'm sure. I'm done crying, tears don't solve anything."

Silence.

"I do not!"

Silence.

"Not!"

"Ladies…"

Amelia blushed and looked like she just finished running a marathon instead of arguing with the TARDIS about something that I probably wouldn't understand. I stood and saw the progress of the TARDIS, we were closer than I thought we would be by now. I snuck a look at Amelia, who was looking off somewhere else, looking a little too innocent for my liking.

I tried landing the TARDIS as lightly as I could, but I still bumped and tossed us around a little trying to land; thanks to a Time Lord's excellent balance, Amelia didn't fall over as much as she did before and she smiled as the TARDIS settled down, "Hey, I didn't fall down this time!"

"Thanks to Time Lady Biology."

I stopped and looked back at Amelia, terrified that I had upset her. She smiled and laughed happily, her voice ringing throughout the TARDIS like a small bell ringing away. I smiled and saw the look in her eyes; she really was done mourning for what she had. Now she was ready to learn about who she is and who she will be.

I held out my hand to lead her out, but she countered by wrapping her little arm into the gap of my arm. We looked at each other and walked out into the sunlight, arm and arm.

The soft sunlight lit the grassy setting beautifully as people began filling the chairs that were set out for the ceremony.

"Amelia!" A woman in a white dress came running out of the hedges toward us, her arms open and her eyes wet with unshed tears. I figured that this was the bride, Marianne, and the man standing over at the archway with the priest was either the best man or the groom.

"Amelia, I'm so glad that you came. I thought I'd never see you again!"

"Marianne, I wouldn't miss this for the world! I'm only sorry that I wasn't able to help you out with the wedding plans. I have so much to tell you, so many stories to share," she looked at me and winked slyly. I winked back as Marianne noticed me.

"And is this the man you left with?"

"Yes, Marianne, this is The Doctor."

"Doctor? Doctor who?" (Sorry I couldn't help myself.)

"Dr. Smith, I've heard wonderful things from Amelia about you and your soon-to-be-husband; is that him over there?"

"Yes, Jack!" The man looked over and smiled at his beautiful bride, who waved back. He waved to Amelia and nodded to me in greeting before turning his attention back to the priest.

"He's a lucky man."

"Flirt," Amelia elbowed me and I elbowed her back. Marianne watched us and laughed when Amelia stuck out her tongue like a small child who just lost a fight with her friend.

"Amelia, come on, you and the Doctor need to get into position!"

"W-what?"

"You are my maid of honor! You're in the wedding! And because I know you like you were my sister, I know you won't do it unless the Doctor is one of the groomsmen."

I glared at her as she smiled and laughed at my discomfort. I was about to protest when the procession began and Marianne ran to her position. Amelia grabbed my hand and pulled me to our spots, "Don't worry, Doc, this will be fun!" she whispered.

The procession kept playing and the 'fun' was beginning. Oh bother…

Author's Notes: Well there it is, the first installment! I know I recycled the wedding theme from the first story but I promise that nothing bad will happen to Amelia so early in the story, although there might be a little more drama than before. Plus I wanted to wrap up what happened to Amelia's friends while she was gone. I promise to include a story scene or something of that nature. Thank you guys for all the support that you give me, reading the comments and just creating these stories make my day so much better and I have you guys to thank for that.

Until next time, my lovely little aliens.
