The Time and Relative Dimension of Love

CHAPTER 1 - The New Doctor

I've gotten used to the parallel world already but it used to be more fun. Before: I was driven, focused on finding a way out. Now: I have nothing.

'How's the New Doctor?' my mum keeps asking, and I insist he's not the new doctor, he's just like the other one… That's when I stop to think and realise how far apart we are.

In the morning he wakes up with that big smile, that I used to cherish so much, and says "Good Morning Rose Tyler!", and even though he kisses me (like he had never kissed before), I'm still not convinced. The New Doctor spends a lot of time with dad and Tony, he loves kids, apparently.

He tells me all about his first family, how they were all slaughtered in the Time War and then he leans in and says "But luckily I have found it again". The truth is, Christmas is not the same anymore, without the big adventures, without the Doctor pulling me to him for a thrilling ride in the Tardis.

I miss him. The real him.

"We have to use it"

"What?" I ask.

"What, you know, my other me gave us."

He runs to me out of the blue, I'm drinking something funny they gave me at the governor's zeppelin. He wants to build a new Tardis. I want it to, so much, but deep down I care about him and I'm afraid he'll get hurt.

I don't resist though, my thirst for adventure overcomes my fear for it and I say "Ok."

We run home, mum and dad don't seem to mind they're sort of used to it. Also, "You're smile, is back" mum notices, and she's right. By the time we get to the drawer on top of our bedside table (it's weird when I say that, plural) we are both out of breath, just like old times. He grabs it carefully.

"Ahah! The Tardis coral. Beautiful, isn't it?" He has that mad look on his face that draws me to him, he is he again. "We just have to connect it to reliable energy force, get her to do a few spins and then it'll grow. I need…" and I stop listening, he's talking technical and I am clearly not Doctor Rose "Blimey, you don't suppose you're father would mind if we borrowed his zeppelin, do you?"

We go off running again, as soon as we reach the zeppelin we get it started. He goes behind the wheel and drops to the floor whispering some names and looking for some gadgets, and then he pulls himself straight up. "Are you ready Rose Tyler?" the smile, it's there again.

I nod.

"Then… Allons-y!"

A bright light hits my eyes; a hard surface hits my head and then that sound. That unmistakable sound I could never forget. The sound of the Tardis. I fall asleep and only wake up a few hours later. Right then, on that moment of atonement he stopped being the New Doctor, he was My Doctor allover again.

I would like to know your opinion :)
