The Doctor stood staring into space as he lost connection with Rose. He fought and lost the battle against his tears. He leant on the central controls and bowed his head as he cried.
When he looked up, he spotted Rose's jacket draped over the handrail. He walked over and stroked his hand over it. Picking it up, he held it to his face and breathed in Rose's scent. Fresh tears spilled over his cheeks as he thought about how he'd never again see her smile as he took her on a new adventure. Never again would he see her pink tongue run across her lip as she thought and laughed at little things. Never again would he laugh as she woke up in the mornings, grumpy with her hair sticking up all over the place. He loved her more than anything, an experience he'd never truly felt before and he was sure he never would again. He kicked himself mentally for leaving it this long to tell her. Even when he decided to tell her, they were cut off before the words could escape his lips.
The TARDIS began to make strange noises. The Doctor stroked the controls and knew, like him, she was crying.
"I know. I'm going to miss her too. But what can I do? If we go back, Rose's old universe and the parallel universe will collapse." He whispered. The TARDIS lurched to the side causing the Doctor to grab hold of the controls to keep himself standing. "No, stop it. We can't go back." He shouted.
The lights flickered and sparks flew from the controls.
It came to an abrupt stop and the Doctor was thrown across the TARDIS. He stood up slowly and listened for any sounds. The engine had stopped meaning they'd landed somewhere. He edged his way to the door and stepped out.
Looking around, he saw that it was night time and they were on the beach where he'd left Rose. Panic struck him, any minute now and the whole place would collapse.
He braced himself for the explosion but nothing happened. Frowning, he looked back at the TARDIS.
"What have you done and how did you do it?" He asked.
