Rose looked up at him. "It's not what you think."

"No, no I'm . . . ." the Doctor was trying to act nonchalant but it wasn't working "happy for you." There he thought, she moved on. She went, got married and had a child.

Rose could see the heart in his eyes, he wasn't happy for her. But, he didn't have to be" Doctor, the child isn't anybodies but yours."

"What?" he said astounded "But we didn't even, I wouldn't, I could never . . ."

"What, you could never love a human? She's yours and that I'm sure of."

"Rose, that's not what I was going to say and you know it. But it's just, well it's just impossible!" He raised his voice, and he shouldn't have. Tears where streaming down Rose's face now, he'd hurt her, and now he felt miserable. He came all this way and he only caused her more pain."Rose," there was no response "Rose, I'm so, so very sorry. It was out of line and I'm sorry."

"No, no it's okay. I thought it was impossible too, until I found out she had two hearts." She looked up at the Doctor. His face changed as he processed this new piece of information. "Look, I've looked into this. Pete and the Torchwood staff had helped. We figured that when I absorbed the time vortex, and you took it out of me, there was a DNA transfer." The Doctor's eyes widened.

" Rose Tyler, you may be right! But that makes things even more difficult. How old is she?"

"In human years she's six but . . ."

The Doctor cut her off "But since she has time lord DNA then she's growing and maturing faster than normal, well for you humans. She should have matured to about a fourteen year old."

"Yes, that's exactly right."Rose said. She wasn't sure if he was happy about this or disappointed. She didn't know if he was even thinking about the situation like he had a daughter at all, he may be treating this just like another adventure, and that she couldn't have. Maya was his, weather he wanted it or not and she wanted him treating her well, not like a new piece of meat that he could hall around the universe.

"Where is she?" he asked suddenly intrigued.

"She's at her boyfriend's house. She's staying the night."

The Doctor stepped back. "Wait, what? She has a boyfriend and your allowing her to stay at his house? No, that is not acceptable."

" What gives you the right to tell me how to raise my daughter? You weren't here Doctor, you don't have the right." The Doctor looked down. She was right, why did she always have to be right? He was a father now and he just wanted to protect his daughter. That was all he was trying to do. Of course an hour ago he didn't even know he had a daughter.

"Can you at least tell me her name? I do have that right." There was silence. Then rose stepped back letting out a breath.

"You Doctor, where gone. You are always going to be gone. I don't want her growing up with a father that will never be there for her. And I don't want her gallivanting off into time and space, she is too young, she deserves a little closure. She is a good kid and doesn't deserve to be left behind." The Doctor's face was solemn.

"Rose, I would never leave her. You can't possibly think that I would leave my own child. Rose, I. . ." Okay, he thought here it goes."Rose I love you. And I will love this child no matter what. Nothing could ever make me leave, nothing."

Rose's mind went blank. She didn't actually expecting him to say it. She hoped he would, for the sake of her child, she hoped he would, but never actually believed he would."Her name is Maya."She said finally. Looking up into his eyes she saw a little bit of that weight lift, the weight of the universe that had been placed on his shoulders so very long ago. She stepped tentatively closer, wrapping her arms around his neck, she held him in a close embrace.

The Doctor smiled, looking down at his beautiful Rose. He had a child, and he had his Rose. Nothing could go wrong. Rose grabbed his hand and lead him through the hallway and into the living room." I'll get some pictures, you probably want to know what she looks like." He took a seat on the couch and waited. Rose went into the opposite room and continued to rattle through things until she found the photo albums. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Rose came back in and sat down next to him, books upon books filling her arms.

She sat down beside him, placing the books on the floor, keeping one in her hands. She opened it up, and gently began to turn the pages, pictures of Maya and other children covering the pages, she was going to birthday parties, school dances, and friends houses. The last page was turned and she set the book down on the ground by the others picking up another. Then as the books pages turned a face kept appearing in the pictures. A tall, brown haired boy. This face kept reoccurring, page after page, Maya and this boy where in almost every one. Finally the Doctor stopped rose from turning the pages, and pointed to the boy in one of the pictures."Who is this?"

"Oh, that's Justin. Maya's boyfriend." The Doctor nodded. Rose continued to turn the pages. Hours passed, and the books on the ground where picked up and set down again. After there the last page had been turned, Rose looked at the Doctor. "I'm going to go to bed. The guest room is up the stairs and to the left, three doors down." She stretched and yawned then getting up off the couch she bid him goodnight and proceeded up the stairs.

The Doctor stayed on the couch, staring at the last photo on the page. Maya and Justin sat, just looking into each others eyes. Rose must've taken this photo without them knowing. A small smile pulled at his lips, getting up he walked up the stairs and down the hallway stopping at the third door. He pulled it open and settled in for the night.
