Secret

My screwdriver was acting up.

Something, somewhere was interfering with my sonic. Nothing interferes with my sonic.

As I worked River and Anita were talking behind me. She was trying to convinse them to trust me. I caught bits and pieces of the conversation. Appearantly somday in the future we went to the end of the universe together.

She knew more about my own future than I did. I didn't like it. No one was supposed to no more than I do about me.

She walked over and showed me my screwdriver. My sonic screwdriver.

It was different, upgraded, but there was no doubt. It was my sonic. Why would I ever just give away my sonic screwdriver? It was mine. giving away the sonic is like giving away the tardis! I just wouldn't do it. So why did she have my screwdriver? I tried to interrogate her about it but she caught me off guard.

She told me to stop being so emotional. How did she know I was being emotional? No one else could ever tell before but somehow she knew. She saw right through me and scolded me about it. No one scolds me, I'm the doctor. The doctor for god's sake!

Lux walked over and scolded us. He said we were fighting like an old married couple.

She flinched at his words and looked up at me guiltily. Her look reminded me of someone who had said something they shouldn't have.

Like a spoiler. I wondered who she was to me. Who she would be to me.

She looked at me and said one day I would trust her completely. That she would prove it to me.

She apologized to me.

Twice.

She stood on her toes and leaned in close to my ear. Her voice was quiet but unmistakable.

"-"

My name. she had whispered my name in my ear.

My name.

Not the doctor. Not john smith. My name. My real name. The name that no one knows. The name no one could ever know. Not even mind readers could figure it out.

But she knew. My thoughts whirled around in my head knocking screws loose as they went. How could she possibly know my name?

Who could she possibly be? Someday in the future I trusted this woman. Trusted her enough to tell her my name. My deepest, darkest, most terrible secret that no one knows.

I never even told Rose my name. Rose whom I loved and cherished and treasured. My precious, beautiful, fantastic Rose who never even knew my name.

River was right. I needed to stop being so emotional.
