Authors note: I spent along time on this one and there and quite a bit of surprises enjoy!
Rose looked up at Rory wondering if he knew who the man was following Clara, she got her answer when the small grin on his face turned into a frown and he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "Rose..?" He asked in question "yea Rory" she replied immediately knowing what his exacts thoughts were. "It's- umm..." He tried to talk but no speech would come out he could only think that the man who wore many different faces was coming to scoop up Rose in his arms and run off. It's the Doctor.." Rose finished his sentence as he kept opening and closing his mouth several times at the sight of he old time lord.
Clara squealed in excitement , her best friend whom she had thought died! Was standing up straight with a fiancé and living - breathing air- happy! Her smile fell as she thought about it ... If Rose had been alive , then why wouldn't she have come said something to her? She had disappeared for twelve months and turned up out of the blue as well and hadn't once explained what she had been doing all she would tell her was that it was wonderful- the ride
of a life time. She was going to get answers though, she knew it-she could just... Feel it. She saw the doctor wearing mischievous smile on his face as she made her way to him but she knew he was only making a face of annoyance. "Hello" he said as she finally stopped in front of him , "hi -" she smiled "wanna come somewhere?" She could feel the huge wave of excitement come over her-the Doctor could meet one of the most important people of her past.
The Doctor could sense the wave of excitement over come Clara and he didn't like it. This was trouble he knew it and when she asked if he wanted to come somewhere with her he didn't know what lot think. Were they going to go look around? Search for trouble ? "What about the TARDIS" the doctor looked at her "she's locked us out - we can't just sit and wait ... Now come on!" She laughed and grabbed his hand as they ran towards the park bench. The doctor became a bit queasy at the thought of what he might have just gotten himself into. Then he became aware of "who" Clara wanted him to meet... Rose Tyler and Rory Willaims.
The Doctor tried to hold a pleasant appearance but honestly he was feeling the complete opposite - a bit disgusted. It wasn't helping either it just made it more difficult to act. As they approached his old companion and love he could sense they were nervous ... Obviously that would be the right emotion as it was extremely awkward. Plus Clara had no idea that he'd even met either of the two , "Doctor meet Rose Tyler and – what's his name?" She stopped as she didn't think she had even been told or couldn't remember. "R-Rory" Rory chocked out "Rory , Williams" he breathed a heavy breath. "Well ? Shall we?" Clara smiled at the pair , ready to see their home and hear about their life.
Rose and Rory desperately tried to hold a smile but Rose was beginning to feel a bit nauseous. "Rory-" she got his attention before Clara and The Doctor were in hearing distance "what" he asked shaking the slightest bit , "I think I might be sick." She looked at him you couldn't tell if you were standing even a few feet away , but the tears were beginning to well up in her eyes. She never expected to see this man again , not the Doctor. She had figured he would move on but apparently he would never get over her- the badwolf , the oncoming storm , stuff of legend,... Rose Tyler. He would have to at some point , considering she would no longer be Rose Tyler , no , Rose Williams that would be her.
Clara's voice interrupted everyone's thoughts "well?" She asked impatiently. Then Rose remembered , "up-upstairs then... I guess" She looked at Rory then at her friend and... And someone. She didn't recognize him , not with the look in his eyes. He was staring at her , and she couldn't figure out what emotion he was holding. He looked like a lost puppy , full of sadness and regret and then the last thing she could find in his expression frightened her. He was angry , mad , full of rage and impatience there was mischief hidden underneath that- but bad .. The dark side of the doctor , and Rose could only hope that it wouldn't unleash - she knew that side... All to well.
They made they're way up to Rose and Rory's small flat quickly and Rory proceeded to put the kettle on the stove. The Doctor sat himself down on the couch and awaited a conversation to spark.
After the tea steeped , Rose and Clara sat down on a fuzzy rug in front of the coffee table which the Doctor had been sitting behind.
"So what happened- you know battle of canary warf? You disappearing for 12 months , where were you?" Clara bombarded her with questions almost pleading for answers. Rose gulped... This couldn't be happening ... The Doctor was looking at her-she could see out of the corner of her eye ... "He thinks this is funny!" Rose finally understood ... "Bastard" The word slips out silently and she knows he's heard. "What?" Clara almost hears "nothing , umm - so canary warf! Basically it was just a mistake ... Mum and I - we were in trouble had to go into hiding , I couldn't speak to anyone and I'm sorry - I'm so ... So sorry that I couldn't tell You" tears glistened in her eyes making her vision blurry. "Oh..." Clara's reaction is. Simple "but what about- that time , ya know when you disappeared for 12 months? .. You said it was the trip of a life time.." Clara kept bringing up things for Rose to explain. "I traveled ... I met someone .. They picked me up we bonded walked off - I'm sorry Clara I didn't even think for a second what I was heading into.." Rose trailed off.
The Doctor had been listening contently to the young women's conversation and he only found more troubled thoughts entered his mind the further they got through their topic ... Rose knew Clara ... And left her for a man with an ice cold stare cropped hair and a leather jacket. He pitied Clara - he really did .. But then he imagined what he would be with out meeting Rose , what if she hadn't saved him from what he had become? What if he was a dark dread filled Doctor who cursed and was full of hatred? The doctor closed his eyes , he was getting a head ache , "stop it" he said to himself so no one heard. Rory's voice called "Doctor- since the girls want to catch up maybe we should ... Umm introduce ourselves - you any good at football?" The doctor knew this was an attempt for Rory to talk to him... About things... Things of the past that most people (Rory) couldn't get over and that most people would over react (Rory) or get upset about (Rory). He could never forgive him for taking his Rose for kissing her ... Her, the real her not a Cassandra possessed Rose and Rory wasn't a duplicate doctor ... Rory kissed Rose and it was real - more real then The Doctor and Rose would ever be. "He's great , kicking a ball an stuff" Clara answered for him , "go on -" she grinned "get to know someone - take a break " Clara wanted to Doctor to relax - have a little fun , forget about space and time for a little awhile and the TARDIS.
The Doctor simply agreed with a nod of his head and followed Rory out the door down to the field across the street.
Clara looked at Rose who stared back at her "how'd you meet him?" Was all Rose could say. Clara sighed and looked at the floor for a couple seconds , "it's a long story" she tried to convince Rose with those 4 words that it wasn't worth taking about , but Rose knowing other things just wanted to hear , she wanted to hear about what fun Clara must've been having ... Without her. With The Doctor. The Doctor...Rose thought. "Well-" Clara started, sneaking a quick look at the door assuring that no one was going to barge in at any moment "he's mad Rose- and he's wonderful but I can see it .. In his eyes , there is pain - he's lost something - someone. He's alone , no one else, I mean I had heard of the others before but those were way in the past .. He never tells me about the most recent I heard of a women name river song- met her too, I guess. You won't believe me - you'll probably laugh at this but ,-" she leaned in closer and made sure Rose had locked eyes with her "he travels in a police call box! He has this weapon- no not a weapon , a screwdriver - sonic screwdriver!" Rose was trying so hard not laugh considering she already knew all the facts , but she wanted to laugh with happiness at the maniac grin that Clara was wearing , Clara was happy with the Doctor and what Rose couldn't believe is that ... Clara's story - description, it made Rose happy. Proud. Wonderful. made her feel whole , for no reason ... It was just that- that Clara her greatest friend - always , actually had the chance to know what Rose had once known ... And she wished she could share all of her stories with her. The Doctor should be the one to explain his relationship with Rose to Clara though and that's if he wanted to and so that's why Rose listens to Clara for who knows how long , about stories of the stars and not once had Clara checked if Rose thought she was crazy because Rose just smiled and listened to the voice , that beautiful voice. Her friends voice ... An impossible voice that traveled everywhere.
The moment the doctor and Rory had stepped foot outside Rory slammed the doctor against the brick wall of the old building. The doctor winced in pain , "what the hell ,Rory?" The words just spilled out of his mouth. "What dy'a mean what the hell!"Rory glared at him it wasn't really a question , more of a statement "more like what the hell are you doing here?" , Rory pushed him again , normally he wasn't one for violence but this man- the doctor had no idea what Rory had suffered. "The TARDIS took us here-she locked us out , and Clara walked off - I tried to stay out of your way.. I'm sorry." The doctor begged for an acceptation of his apology but it was no use Rory just pushed him against the wall and looked him in the eye not breaking speech once. "No I don't think you understand , doc-TOR, I proposed today , me and Rose - we should be out having fun but instead you and some Girl who claims that Rose was dead and that she was her best friend just show up out of the blue and all of the sudden it's a god damn family reunion isn't it?-isn't it!?" Rory holds the doctors jacket and slams him against the wall again , "you proposed! ... To Rose! -my Rose!" The Doctor explains trying to hold back sounds of pain and hurt. "Haha-wow..." Rory steps back and laughs shaking his head looking up at the sky. Then he walks towards the Doctor again "you don't get it do you?" Rory smirked in a humorous tone and then punches the doctor in the stomach "g-guess not.." The doctor sputters after tumbling back and sliding into a sitting position against the filthy wall. " I listened to every night - because I cared , I listened to the stories about how much she love you about how she tore apart the walls of the universe to save you! I heard about how she loved you even after you changed your face and After you pointed a gun at her and yelled that she'd moved out of the way so that you could murder a Dalek. She cried in my arms-mine- for hours after the TARDIS materialized and disappeared from sight , and then I found out about how you could leave her in an instant for some queen - Madame pom- whatever the hell her name was , you left her not knowing if you would be able to return , you came back and looked like some druken idiot-and that was exactly what you were - you just kept rambling on about bananas and didn't even notice her an Mickey strapped to a freaking table! Ready to be dissected!" The tears were rolling down Rory's cheek , he stopped to breathe. "Then you know what you did ? You let her rip apart the Walls of the universe and reunite with you only for a meta crisis to be created - a duplicate of you , and then you sent them back to the parallel world so that she could have the adventure you never could have. It broke her , never once had she loved someone so much and you threw it away- and if you want to blame my daughter for your decision then you best think twice. I know you loved River and I know that you loved Rose .. But it's over. You sent Rose away even when you had the chance to grab her hand whisper run all over again you could've taken her with you but you didn't. Instead you left her behind with a piss poor copy of yourself or maybe not- maybe he was just the real you on the inside , the real man that hides behinds your face!" Rory finished out of breath , he'd been waiting to get that out for ages and he knew at some point he would have too but he really just wanted to yell at the doctor if anyone. "You let my wife run off with you" and I knew you were only giving her want she wanted and that-that was happiness , and I was able to forgive you for that - but for Rose ... I will never forgive you , because you knew that when you left her behind on that beach for the second time ... She would've rather run off with you .. Because only then would she ever be happy."
Rory hopped the Doctor was drowning in sorrow right now and ashamed of his actions because truthfully , he should have been" Rory bent Down and watched a tear fall down the Doctors cheek "he yelled at her , he swore at her , he teased her , he burnt her , he cut her , he slapped her , he beat her , he threatened her , he tortured her and you know what - he raped her. Now, replace every "he" with the word "you" because doctor -" Rory got closer and grabbed the doctor by the shirt collar."-because you doctor are no different - that was the same man with the same memories and it was you " Rory rubbed it in , hard. "And you know what?" Rory choked a Laughing sob , it was silent for awhile and then the doctor spoke "w-what..?" He sniffed looking down even though Rory could still see his green eyes looking up at him. "He took her innocence away- and spirit , and he used her - he raped her." Rory repeated "I know!" The Doctor shot a snarl at Rory and his head flew up to glare at him , he only wished Rory to stop. "She's never cheated on me" Rory held a hand against his own mouth "so?" The doctor said confused "she's pregnant" Rory's voice was a bit muffled , the doctor waited and then made face of anger and continued sadly "well congrats" and rolled his head back to see a teary eyed Rory who was opening his mouth to speak. "I-it's ... It's not -mine."
He finally got out. "She's pregnant and it's not mine" the doctor was terrified "it had been three years Since she had been attacked by the duplicate "that's not possible" , "she went on a another trip with the vortex manipulator , he found her again , he was with another man as well-she couldn't run they grabbed her and left her balling on a cold-cold cement floor in a basement. She found away to escape though" the doctor was furious - he never once thought of hurting Rose - never , he only wanted happiness for her. He couldn't speak he felt like he might vomit he was disgusted , then it hit him "did she know who the other man was?" He didn't know what think of it, only hope but his hearts sunk as the words soaked in. "It was duplicate you and a man known as the Master" Rory looked down "but who's ever baby it is - I'll be the father , it doesn't matter - they shouldn't have to know of what harm they were caused from." Rory informed the Doctor on what he would do for this child "how far along is she?" Was the Doctors next question "6 months" Rory said dryly "... She's tiny" the doctor replied numbly "badwolf" was all Rory said as he began towards the entrance door to the old building and was soon after followed by The Doctor who still couldn't place things right in his head the only words that stuck were "badwolf" "she's pregnant" "the duplicate him and the master. As they walked into the flat he just looked at Rose sitting next to Clara laughing , Rose made eye contact with him briefly and he wondered if she might know that Rory would've told him. His poor helpless Rose .. And he hadn't been there for her. AGAIN.
