God! I'm writing like a chapter per day! But It's good right? I mean I'm enjoying it at least... Now, back to business what the hell was Tenth thinking about? Let's see what happens with this two along the week. Things might get interesting. By the way, thanks to everyone that is following this story and thanks for the reviews ! :)


Rose walked to her room. She was trying to convince herself that everything was better this way, now that the Doctor had finally showed his true colours. She slammed her bedroom's door and started crying. She laid in her bed without even changing clothes, and fall asleep.

Mean while the Doctor was still in the garden. He covered his face with his hands. As usual he had hurt her, but this time it was to protect her.

Well done idiot. You did it again, she won't forgive you for this. But it was the best thing to do right? Yeah..the best. She was so beautiful in that lovely pink dress, and that zip. God! that zip. She's human, she'll die someday and I'm going to lose her and she won't have a family to cry for her. Yeah what I did was certainly the best thing to do. But I still have this week though - He thought - Too late mate.

A couple of tears run down his face all the way to his cheeks. What was he going to do in the rest of this week? He didn't think he could look at her in the eyes ever again.

After an hour or two he was walking through the hallway to his room and he stopped in front of Rose's room. Maybe she won't come out of there untill she have to go back, so maybe I should have a last look - He needed to see her again.

He opened the door slowly. He saw her in her sexy pink dress. That dress that was for him. She was asleep, he wished to go and sleep next to her but he couldn't. Not after tonight.


The Doctor woke up, then went to the kitchen to have breakfast. He thought maybe Rose was still asleep since she needed more hours of rest, but when he checked the clock again and saw it was 13:00 pm and Rose was still locked in her room he realized she was avoiding him.

He offered her food. She didn't answer. He didn't even know if she was there but breaking in her room wasn't the cleverer idea.

It was getting dark and when night fall he cooked dinner hoping that Rose would eventually come out and eat something at least. He waited in vain. He had never been good in relationships so he went to the console room and worked in some coördinates that took him to Earth. There, he bought a book about human relationships. He wanted to know how to get her back, at least for this week before she went away and lived a better life.

He spent the rest of the day in the library and fell asleep with the book in his hands at eleven, a bit early but since he didn't get much sleep last night he needed it.

At 2:00 in the morning Rose came out of the room. She wanted to eat, she hadn't eaten since last night. She hoped the Doctor wasn't in the kitchen. She was glad he wasn't there so Rose ate what he had cooked for her. She realized she needed to eat and couldn't just locked herself in her room for the rest of the week. And then she remembered. She was in a time machine!

She could ask the Doctor to take her five days in the future to the day she was supposed to go back to the parallel universe. Yes, that's what she was going to do. After she had finished the meal she stood up with the idea of going to the garden again, when she saw the library's door open, and a TimeLord sleeping in the couch holding a book.

It was a cold night and Rose thought that the Doctor might be cold, so she went downstairs to her bedroom and picked up a blanket. Then she covered the Doctor with it. While she was there, in the library, she took the book in her hands and read the title.

"The best guide for human relationships"

The bookmark was in a chapter called "feelings hidden". It amused her the idea of the Doctor reading a book like this one to understand her feelings. He looked so vulnerable in his sleep. If she was going to ask him to take her to the future to make this end sooner she wanted, at least, to know what it felt to wake up next to him. She sat down in the couch and laid her head on his shoulder, and covered them both with the blanket.


The Doctor woke up in the middle of the night. Enought sleep for him. He blinked a few times like you do when you have just woken up and felt someone sleeping next to him over his shoulder. He didn't remember making up last night so why was Rose curled over him?

He wasn't complaining at all. Being honest, he was quite enjoying it. He would have gone to read something or getting to work with the Tardis, but since Rose had decided to get fond with him he was going to stay and enjoy the view, and the feeling of course.

Rose looked very peaceful in her dreams, but suddenly something bothered her and she curled into the Doctor even more than before. He kissed her forehead and started talking to her.

"You know, I read a book once that said that if you talk to someone in his sleep or even if he is unconscious, his subconscious could react to what you say. Now, I don't know if you are listening right now but let me explain to you why I made the decision I made"

He told her about what were his thoughts about the mistake she was making by staying with him, and that after Mickey's birthday four years ago he had decided to take her back home a few moths later after that day before it was too late. And he even talked about the jealousy he felt when he saw her with that bloke at Mickey's birthday too. He was about to tell her about his true feelings for her when he heard her interrupting.

"Why were you jealous?" She asked innocently.

"Oh! For how long have you been consciously listening?"

"Since you started talking. I faked being asleep because you were opening to me in that way you never do"

"Well...'cause..." Why could he be so honest with her when she was sleeping but not when she was awake. obviously because now she was listening. Really, proper listening.

Rose took that long paused as negative so she looked at him in the eyes and told him to take her seven days in the future from this day.

"What? Why?" The Doctor asked confused.

"That's the day the other Tardis is going to take me back to the parallel universe"
