I don't own Doctor- we've been over this. Please review!
(John's (A.K.A Meta Crisis Doctor) POV)
"Uhh... She isn't here right now.. actually she just went out... who are you?" I ask the man who stood at my front door. This man seemed so familiar. Like one of my old babysitters on Gallifrey. Well, HIS babysitter back on Gallifrey. I never felt quite right knowing that I didn't actually live all the memories that I had. They felt stolen. I'm just a human... I'm no time lord.
The man looked at me in surprise. As if he had forgotten who he was. He opened his mouth as if he was going to speak up but a few moments later, his mouth quickly closed.
"I'm John Smith" he said. I thought to myself 'lie'. I lowered my gaze to his tweed jacket where the inside pocket was. I could see a shape that looked like a large over sized pen. That would normally be where I kept my old sonic scredri- 'He can't be..' I thought to myself.
"Is that a new screwdriver?" I asked. I surprised myself with the way that I said my sentence. I sounded a bit angry. Then again why shouldn't I, I loved that my trusty sonic screwdriver, she could get me out of anything! Then again I have changed its model quite a few times. The man in the tweed let out a large smile and reached for his inside pocket pulling out a completely brand new 's not my style. It looks rubbish compared to my old one.. infacted I hated it. It seemed to.. Complicated.
"Oh yeah well..." I said as i reached into my inside pocket and pulled out my very own sonic screwdriver. Since I became human, I've had a lot of time on my hands, surprisingly more than I had while I was living in the TARDIS. All this time on my hands I had to think of something to do. So an identical sonic screwdriver. I made Rose one too.
The Doctor examined the screwdriver and let out a big cheeky grin. "Nice to see you again, Doctor" He said to me with the biggest smile. Oh god this is really how I turned out. I thought this regeneration of myself was weird. This guy looked crazy.
"Yes well... Nice to see you too.. Doctor" I couldn't get over how I stole his life. And his lady."How exactly did you get here?" I asked him trying to take my mind off of it.
"Luck. I saw a thing on the telly. It allows me to travel in between parallel universes safely without tearing a hole in the fabric of time and space!" He exclaimed. I could tell he felt proud of himself. 'He seems cute- COOL oh my god did I just say that out loud!?' I looked up at the Doctor who didn't seem like he heard my mistake. I let out a sigh in relief and quickly tried to get this awkward moment out of the way.
"Would you like to come inside?" I asked him.
"I'd love to!" He jumped with joy.
(The Doctors POV)
As I walked inside the flat that John shares with Rose, I saw the pictures of them together sprawled across their walls. She looks beautiful. But then again, when doesn't she? I looks as if she hasn't aged at all. She still looks the same as when I first met her. 'Stop.' I thought to myself. Rose got to have the man she wanted to. Bringing up old feelings wasn't going to help me at all. Why am I even here? She probably doesn't even want to see me. I should just leave. This is pointless. Why would I want to bring up old feelings? If I cared for crying, then I could go and watch a chick flick. Rose doesn't even want to see me. Or worse... She wants to run away with me again.
After about 20 minutes of lounging around John's living room and poking at things, John decided he wanted to make conversation. "So have have you been? Traveling with anyone?" He asked. I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted Rose to know about Clara yet. I mean lets face it, I still do love Rose and she might not love me anymore but if she has any feelings at all for me.. hearing that I'm traveling with someone besides her AGAIN might just kill her.
"Not at the moment no," I replied. I felt my stomach knot up as I was lying through my teeth. I really did care for Clara but I don't like it when my companions get together and start talking about.. companion stuff.
"You need to be traveling with someone Doctor, it really isn't safe for you," he warned me. It was the truth. I knew how I get when i traveled by myself. It sure didn't do the universe any good.
"Yeah maybe I'll find someone one day," I hated this. Lying to myself. All I could think about was Clara. I'm doing her so wrong here. She's wonderful and brilliant and amazing. Wait.. I don't actually have feelings for her? Do I? No all I've ever had was Rose. My pink and yellow human. I couldn't have moved on. Even if Clara was perfect. She almost seemed to perfect. But she is no Rose Marian Tyler. "Where did Rose go?" I asked abruptly trying to take my mind off of the subject.
"She went to the store to fetch some milk," he said as he glanced at his watch, "she should be home soon," he continued.

(Rose's POV)
I fumbled for my keys when I came home from the shop. It was getting late so I went ahead and locked the door behind me. As I walked in, I set the milk in the fridge and walked to the living room where I found John and I suppose one of his friends.
"Hey John milk's in the fridge. Who's your friend?" I said with a smile. I wish that he would have told me he was having company. This house looks terrible.
"Oh this is..-
"Rory. My name is Rory," The man said interrupting John. He seemed jumpy. He definitely wasn't ordinary. I really liked his bow tie.
"Nice to meet you Rory!" I smiled and held out my hand. He hesitated hand shook my hand slowly. He shut his eyes tightly as if he was about to cry. What had I done? I slowly pulled my hand back in confusion and he let his hand fall to his side.
"I- I should go. I can't. I mean that... Goodbye Rose Tyler." He said as he walked out of the living room. I stood in utter confusion as he left. I sat on an armchair that was across from John. I remembered that I locked the door so I stood up and started walking towards it. A few moments of walking later, I heard it. The sonic screwdriver. It had a different sound to it but it was definitely the sonic. I heard the door shut and I was so excited! That was the Doctor! MY Doctor. That was him. No wonder why he was acting strange.. we haven't seen each other in years!
I hadn't realized how long I was standing in awe before my feet actually started running out of my house following the man. I turned a couple of corners before I saw that beautiful blue box. She looked different. New. She had a fresh coat of paint and she looked as if she hadn't seen many adventures.
When I walked up to the TARDIS, I noticed myself brushing my hand against her. 'Don't be like the Doctor' I thought to myself. I chuckled as I knocked on the TARDIS doors.
"How are you feeling old girl? Did you miss me?" I asked the TARDIS. I felt a slight hum of the TARDIS underneath my hand and let out a smile. "How many women have you let walk through these doors since I left eh?" I asked playfully. nut in my heart, I knew I was worried. I was shaken to the core. The Doctor probably moved on to another girl just like what happened to Sarah Jane. What if I was just the next Sarah Jane? The TARDIS began to rumble as if she was putting up a protest. Her reaction made me smile. Such a clever blue box. I remember having to talk to the TARDIS while I was sitting in my room because the Doctor was being an idiot. Awkwardly, she was always there for me.
I pulled out my TARDIS key that I kept as a chain around my neck and put it into the keyhole.I thought one last thought before pushing those doors open, 'Here goes everything'
