He looked at her holographic face with sad eyes and empty hearts, a Universe away. There was so much he wanted to tell her, so many things he wanted but could no longer have. This was the last time they would ever see each other. He couldn't hold her and comfort her as they said good-bye. The star he was orbiting would die soon, they only had moments. Rose would be lost forever. He never told her that he loved her and now he might never get the chance. He swallowed past the lump in this throat and took a shaky breath,
"I love you!" Rose sobbed, tears streaming down her cheeks. He gave a halfhearted laugh, the kind you give when something isn't funny,
"Quite right too, quite right. And I guess, since it doesn't matter," he paused. Now, now was the time. Seventeen letters, five words,
"Rose Tyler," another pause, only eight now, only eight,
"I-" her image cut out and was lost. Tears over flowed his eyelids and slid silently down his cheeks. His whole world had been snatched away from him, and his sorrow was all that remained. He wanted to scream and shot, to fall to his knees and pound the floor with his fists, screaming into eternity.
"I love you." he whispered in a thick shaky and broken voice to the empty TARDIS that surrounded him. He took a deep breath, and let it out all at once. He brushed his tears away and wiped the horrified and shocked look from his face. Time to move on, that's how it always is. Move on and don't look back, that's how it always is. He fiddled with the controls of the TARDIS, time to move on.
"AHH!" He turned at the sound, a red haired woman in a wedding dress had materialized in his TARDIS and was standing there, looking at him angrily.
"What?" Confusion tore his brain apart, what in the bloody universe is going on?
"Where am I?" the woman advanced,
"What?"
"What the hell is this place?"
"WHAT?" The start of something huge stood right in front of him, he could feel it, another adventure waiting to happen. Some things never change.
