Rose kissed her lover with all of the power left in her. She wrapped her arms around his neck, running her fingers through his soft hair. "I love you." he had whispered. And Rose knew he meant it.
The kiss was broken when the familiar sound of the TARDIS disappearing brought Rose back to reality. She pushed away the metacrisis, and ran. And there it was, fading into the darkening sky.
Rose collapsed. Tears ran from her eyes, smearing her mascara. The cool sand enveloped her feet and she rolled into a tight ball.
She felt hands on her, rubbing her arm affectionately. Pushing them away, Rose continued sobbing. The hands wouldn't leave, though. They pushed past her rump, scooping her into a set of arms.
Rose glanced up into the man's eyes. "Put me down." she demanded. "No." said the man, who so closely resembled the Doctor. "Go away." Rose tried again. "I'm not going to let you weep your heart out on a freezing beach." the voice responded again.
Rose gave up, and began to enjoy the feel of thumping along in a pair of strong arms. She placed her hand on the chest of the owner of the arms and wrapped the other arm around his neck. "Doctor." she mumbled into his neck, and he knew he was indeed the Doctor.
Rose awoke to the sound of a train. She was in a small cabin, barely large enough to house the couple for the night. Sitting up, Rose realized she must've fallen asleep in the Doctor's arms. She smiled to herself when she found she was lying in the his lap before she woke up. He smiled from behind her, stroking her hair softly.
"You're up." he mumbled into her ear. Rose turned and kissed him lightly. She pulled away, searching his face for a sign of pleasure. The Doctor grinned a loopy grin, dragging Rose outside their small room on the train. Rose took his hand, not caring where they went.
She was pulled into a dining car, lined with several tables. Rose shook her head. "Not hungry." The Doctor looked down at her. "You have to be. Old Jax said you haven't eaten in days. She shook her head again. The Doctor sighed, helping her into a chair at one of the tables. He ordered her fish and chips, which she ate rather quickly for someone who wasn't hungry.
After dinner, Rose was dragged groggily back to their cabin. "Where's mum?" she asked suddenly. "Another cabin. She wanted to give us some privacy. Did you know you're rich, now?" Rose nodded, and crawled into bed.
The Doctor smiled lightly at her, before pulling off her blue jacket. He also helped her out of her shoes and socks, leaving her in just a magenta camisole and sweatpants.
Rose dug her head into the pillow, pulled the sheet up to her chin, and abruptly fell asleep.
Rose's eyes popped open. She rolled over, confused about where she was. She saw the Doctor, in just a red t-shirt and a pair of underwear. He was lying next to her, propped up on one elbow. Rose blinked as sudden memories flashed back. She stared at the Doctor. She was now his. And he was now hers.
Rose closed her eyes, feeling his hands on her face. She ran her hands through the Doctor's soft hair. "You're human now." she said softly. "Half human." he corrected. "Do you sleep, now?" He nodded. Rose found his chest and felt for double heartbeats. She sighed, finding only one.
Go back to sleep" the Doctor said smoothly. And so she did.
