He always walks twenty paces behind, with his head down, and just out of sight. He's never noticed, and never in any danger. They were the first time they were here, but he's not now, not this time. The only danger would be if she noticed him, but there is no reason why she would. Nor is there any reason his other self would notice. Just a bloke in a tweed jacket, nothing such an adventurous man in a black leather jacket would notice. Though now that he is here a second time he can almost remember seeing a shadow of a man in the back of his mind. He writes the warning Bad Wolf everywhere, knowing now that he was the one to give the warning.
She's so brave in the face of everything. No matter how deeply she feels, how terrified she is she is determined to save the world. She's determined that I see her for a woman even as I try to see her as just another companion. She succeeded where none other had. She sacrificed herself, willing to become one with the tardis forever to save me. Willing even to die to save me, what else could I do but the same? Save earth, protect earth, interfere only to preserve the timeline. That's what TimeLords do. They preserve the timeline, and though I had gotten a bit off track, who could blame me after almost thousand years away from all others of my kind. I deserved a bit of adventuring, of mucking about.
He returns to the tardis to be alone, to go back to earth during a time and place where noone was, but where he always felt near her.

The first prenatal exam went just fine. The heartbeat was strong, and steady. Being already four months along before she found out she was pregnant made the amount of time she had to get ready short. Her mum was there with her, her da at home waiting to hear. She hadn't told either of them who the father was. Mickey had volunteered without warning when her mum had asked who the father was. Her mum was so happy. She and Mickey were going to have a baby. No more flitting off around time and space for her baby. No now she was going to be a grandmother.
I tried to talk him out of it. It's not Mickey's fault I ran off and got myself "in trouble" as mum said at first. Mum is still furious that I won't accept Mickeys proposal. Da seems to have an inkling of what is goin' on. Mum sees what she wants to see, but I think even she knows I was away longer than I was gone. I love Mickey I do, but not as he deserves, and certainly not as much as he wants. He would never complain though. He'll stand by my side and help me raise this child, knowing he has second place in my heart. Mickey deserves better than this. So does my lil' timelord here. He should know his da. Mickey will be a great father, but I have a feeling there are some things he just won't be able to teach.
