AMYS POV

Amy woke with a throbbing in her head and a thumping in her heart, the latter of which she knew was from the dream that she had just fallen from and immediately after thinking about it she felt her cheeks start to burn. The she thought back to a particular part of the dream that seemed so real, with River and the Doctor, and they were talking about her, but as soon as she thought of it she shoved it out of her head. It must have been a dream she thought my mind does just go too far sometimes. It's not like she's never dreamt of River before, she had to admit though that her dreams including River weren't usually about talking, and she's not gay or anything, but even Amy had to admit that she had something about her that was enticing even to a woman. She was beautiful and intelligent, more than enough to match the Doctor which are characteristics that surely anyone would find attractive

Just then she noticed a figure in the corner of the room sat in a random chair, cutting off her thoughts, which she had to admit, she had never really noticed before. She looked up to the face of the figure hunched over in the corner, which seemed to be sleeping, and she felt safe instantly, she knew he had been watching over her. Amy sat up slightly, determined to get out of bed, however every bone and muscle in her body hurt and the strain of all of this at the same time made her scream out in pain slightly, which she tried without success to stop. Instantly, the Doctor woke up and was by her side trying to lower her back down onto the bed, with a bit of protest from Amy which soon dissipated. Once she was lying back down, he let out a sigh of relief and kneeled down by the side of the bed with his hand in Amy's hand and looking straight into her eyes.

"You don't half cause trouble for yourself, Pond" He said in a half concerned, half relieved tone, looking down at her like a doting parent.

"You must be rubbing off on me then" She said, with a smile through the pain that she was feeling. "What the hell happened to me?"

"Of cause, you don't remember, I thought that might be a side effect. We were on sevion, I had an errand I had to run remember?" He looked at her affectionately while raising his other hand to brush a piece of her fiery hair away from her face. She shook her head meekly, although her body had gained a bit of strength in the time that she had lay there, in response to his question and waited for him to continue.

"Well never mind, I told you to stay in the Tardis, they don't appreciate many other races visiting their planet, while I quickly went to the palace and spoke to their emperor, lovely man, called Falmador, really knows how to make a party go off with a bang." He saw the impatience set across her face "Oh, yes sorry, anyway do you ever listen to anything I say? No. So you must have gone for a stroll through the market that I parked next to, and well they sell some dangerous things really, more to protect their planet than anything amongst many other lovely things, but I believe that you must have picked something up, probably looked like perfume of something to you. But it wasn't. It was a very powerful hallucinogen, which to say someone like me it would have made me very ill however your body isn't as strong as mine and to humans it can be…lethal" He looked down at his hand in amys, obviously ashamed and Amy tried to reassure him.

"It isn't your fault Doctor, really. Im fine now aren't i? Anyway, that's a point, how did you find me?" She was feeling slightly better now so she managed to pull her face into a smile to try to convince the Doctor and saw the corner of his mouth up turn slightly.

"That's the lucky part really. River was just passing, apparently she is good friends with the emperor, she did something for him in the past, and she fought through all of the crowds trying to get to you, at this point apparently the hallucinogen had set in and you had gone a bit, well let's say… unstable" He was obviously hiding something, and she hated more than anything when he did that, it made her feel like a hopeless child.

"What did I do, Doctor?" She knew she had asked the right question as soon as she had done it because she saw the Doctor withdraw a bit. "Don't make me ask again".

"Well, when River managed to get to you, it seems that you somehow, whether off a market stall or from one of the locals, managed to get hold of some type of sword and were kind of… threatening everyone around you. The hallucinogen must have affected you terribly, I'm so sorry for letting it happen"

"I know there's more Doctor" She was getting frustrated now, what would be so bad that he couldn't tell her? Then she tried to pull away from that thought.

"Ok, ok, just stay to stay calm ok? Everything is fine now, no need to worry." His hand was stroking her head trying to calm her more now, like you would a child. "River managed to get the locals to leave you alone, after a lot of shouting she informed me, and she tried to tell you to get to the Tardis but whatever that hallucinogen had done to you, it wasn't River who you saw in front of you. So you kind of lunged at her with the sword and cut her with it a few times before she managed to restrain you and get the sword away. She did manage to drag you back to the Tardis to give you an injection to save you but you fought her all of the way, we think you may have thought she was trying to kidnap you or something, well anyway you put up quite a fight"

"Oh my god" She felt guilt, fear and worry surge through her all at the same time and tears started welling in her eyes. "Is she ok? How bad did I hurt her?" Her voice had raised by a few octaves and she had started to hyperventilate, she tried to grab to the side and get out of bed to go and see her. The Doctor quickly grabbed the sides of her head a looked right into her eyes,

"Amy, really it's ok, she's fine, she recovered pretty quickly and she was more worried about you, we both were to be honest but you have to calm down, you will make yourself more ill and I can't go through seeing you like that again" Amy could see the pleading and pain in his eyes and tried to calm down and slow down her heart rate which had gone through the roof. After she had stopped struggling and had relaxed a bit, the Doctor released his hands from around her head. They sat in silence for a few minutes until the thought hit Amy, the thing she should have realised straight away.

"Doctor, how long exactly have I been unconscious?" He quickly grabbed her hand again in his as if to comfort her.

"3 days" He looked down again and Amy instantly raised her hand and put it to the side of his face, highlighting the unshaven jaw and chin.

"And you've been looking after me all that time and not yourself by the looks of things" She said, trying to lighten the tone but realising that wasn't going to work she went back to the previous conversation. "So what happened after I turned into a psychopath and tried to kill one of my friends?"

He looked up, seeming quite shocked at the tone that she had taken but he supposed this was her way of dealing with it. "River managed to get you back here to the Tardis, but she was forced to sedate you because you were apparently becoming increasingly aggressive and it was impossible for her to help you. But you were still fighting, almost like you were having loads of nightmares, which I suppose you were, yet she managed to give you the medication that you needed which fought it a bit, which is when I got back, but after that it was just a case of waiting and hoping" She could see tears welling in his eyes and she thought that he was going to stop talking but just then he started again.

"We kept you down in the console room for a few hours, it would have been too dangerous to move you in that state, but later on your 'fits' became a bit less frequent which gave us enough time to move you. River carried you up here and I came to look after you. I was going to get Rory but I didn't want to leave you for even a second" He stared into her eyes but Amy wasn't thinking about that right then. The revelation had hit her and knocked her breath right out of her, it had really happened, or had it, it seemed possible enough but River can't have said that can she? There was one thing she knew, she needed to see her right now, maybe even speak to her if she could draw the courage. Amy was never usually a reserved person but something about finding out Rivers true feelings for her scared her a little, yet at the same time made her heart flutter.

"I guess now that you have come round though I could go and get Rory right now to come and see you. He will be so-" The Doctor rambled on but Amy stopped him abruptly.

"Where is River? I want to see her" She didn't know why she didn't ask this earlier, even with the revelation she had tried to kill her, that deserved an apology.

"Urm, well, she kind of had to leave soon after you were ill. I think it was something to do with-" Amy wasn't having any of it, this pretty much convinced her that it happened and if it did then it is probably the Doctors fault for her leaving, for pressuring her.

"I don't care. Forget Rory, we can get him later" She leaned up into a sitting position and started to swing her legs off onto the floor to stand, and although the doctor tried desperately to get her to lie back down, she was having none of it. "I need to see River. Now".
