Author's Notes: Follows along the lines of the Groundhog Day trope. Contains some fleeting Season 6 spoilers.
Amy will never get accustomed to being the butt of time's jokes. This experience might even compare to missing her daughter's entire childhood in the blink of an eye.
She knows too well what's coming when the dreaded moment cycles around again. She's desperate to stop Rory from stepping off the footpath, but neither her limbs nor her lips will move. As she has for countless days in a row, she watches helplessly as the car hits.
It's no consolation that when she wakes up tomorrow Rory will be fine. That just means she'll have to witness this again hours later as a prisoner in her body, a puppet, acting out the same horrific events every day.
The Doctor has repeatedly instructed her not to trust in him, but she has no choice. The alternative is believing he won't come save them from this. That's more than she can bear.
