Hi Readers. Since I've been a bit low on actual one shots let alone stories, I thought I'd write a one shot to add to my others. Right well if you haven't noticed I asked you readers to give me your suggestions on about 4 or 5 of my song choice one shots. Now I still need more people to review on it if they like any (and if you have any suggestions also review them). Off topic just read the one shot-tell me what you think, end of.
Enjoy! Please Review. Summary: It's set after Girl in the fireplace (my fav episode) and it's about the Doctor trying to figure out what he should do, morn Reinette or tell Rose his feelings? Italics-Thoughts or the Tardis speaking (The Doctor=The Doctor's P.O.V) WARNING: Some course language.
Alien Like You
Let the stars unwind, let the water make wine cause broken souls will become whole tonight. You know it's right...-Alien like you by The Pigott Brothers
The Doctor
I'm standing in the console room holding a letter from a dead woman to the man she thought she loved. It's from Madame de Pompadour to me.
But I couldn't be the man she loves. How could I be the man she loves when I'm in love with Ro...someone else? Yet she waited for me her whole life. Of course she fell in love with me. But what about Ro..the other person?
Oh, that's just great, your even lying to yourself now.The Tardis says.
"What has this got to do with you?" I ask her.
Oh, nothing except that one of your companions is crying her eyes out because of you. Just thought you'd like to know. She retorts.
"Rose?"
Yes Rose! You thick Timelord!
"Why would she be crying?"
Oh, Rassilon give me strength! Because you ran off!How thick are you Doctor?
"Alright! Calm do you care so much?"
Just go to her Doctor.
"Wh-"
JUST DO IT! She shouts.
Rose
How could he? I thought he bloody cared about me? He was going to let her come on the Tardis?Maybe I ought to leave, at least then I won't get heartbroken again!
Rose, don't think like that. It would break his hearts if you left him.
A voice said.
"Who's that?" I shriek.
It's just me. The Tardis. I'm talking to your mind. Basically telepathy. Anyway, you shouldn't think like that. He does care about you, but before he was just being stupid. A thick Timelord.
"You can say that again. Your just lying to make me feel better."
No Rose. I might lie to the Doctor because he's being a turnip, but I'd never lie to you, even if you were calling me a turnip.
I laugh at that.
There we are. No need for tears. But I'll tell you a secret. I think the Doctor would cry his hearts out if you left him.
"As if." I whisper.
It's the truth. I've got to go now. The Doctor will come round you'll see.
"As if." I say again.
But then I hear footsteps coming down the corridor and someone sigh. They knock o my door.
"Come in." I call.
The door opens and the Doctor slowly walks in.
The Tardis was telling the truth!
Told you. She retorts
"Hey.." He says sheepishly.
"Hi. You okay?" I ask
"Yeah. I'm fine. Why do you ask?"
"It's just before, you were a little...distant."
"I'm fine. I actually came in here to see if you were okay. I can see you're..."
"What? I'm fine."
"Rose, I can tell you've been crying."
"Well I haven't."
Liar!The Tardis says.
Shut up,I retort.
"There's no use lying Rose. I can tell, and to be honest, every time you lie you always look away or your nails suddenly become interesting."
Damn!
"Come on. Tell me what's going on." He says as he comes over to sit on the edge of my bed.
Wait a second, I've had dreams like this, except well the Doctor usually isn't wearing a shirt in those dreams.
Rose! Pay attention to here and now! The Tardis instructs me.
"Look, nothing's wrong just go back to the console room or your room or wherever you go." I say a little to angrily.
"Calm down, I'm only trying to be a good friend." He says annoyed.
Friend! See he said it himself Tardis, I'm nothing more than a friend.
You know you sound like a stuck up teenager, right?The Tardis told me.
"That's all I'll ever be. Isn't?" I utter.
"No. We'll I hope not." I hear him mumble.
"What did you say?"
"Look, if this is about Reinette..." He begins
"Madame de Pompaurhore" I whisper.
"Right so it is about her." He states.
"I didn't say that."
"No , but you sort of implied it when you called her a hore." He said a bit defensively.
"Right so your admitting that you loved her."
"No. I cared about her, she was waiting for me her whole life and I let her down."
"Right, but it doesn't matter if it's your companion that's traveled with you for 2 years waiting 5 and a half hours for you to get back, wondering whether your dead, alive, or if you care about me." I sob.
I close my eyes and turn my face into my pillows and cry my heart out, again.
The Doctor
I just sit there, watching her cry her eyes out. I slowly move closer to her.
"Look Rose, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave you, but I had to save her she was a fixed point in time. She wasn't supposed die then. And just so you know...the whole time I was stuck 3000 years in the past ….I was thinking of you."
"I don't want to here it Doctor." She sobs.
I slowly came to lie next to her, her back facing me.
I put my arms around her and held her to me.
Her sobs stopped.
"Rose, how could you even think I'd leave you on purpose? I'm sorry, Rose."
She turned over so that she was facing me. Her eyes wet with tears.
"I thought you loved her. Because she was different and perfect." She whispered.
"I don't want perfect. But I do want different, but not in that way."
"Then what do you want?"
"I..."
I can't say. I just can't.
What if she doesn't feel the same way? What if the only reason she's upset is because I left her? I should really, really I can't, I just can't leave her and act like this never happened, not again. Oh...Rassilon, I could kiss her now. I have to answer her question sooner or later. What would I say? All I want is...someone who isn't perfect, someone who's compassionate and caring, someone like...someone like Rose. No, not like Rose, just Rose. I just want her. I want to be with her. But I can't what about Mickey the Idiot, Rose's boyfriend!
How thick are you, Doctor? Thicker than a turnip, more of an idiot than Mickey! He knows! He can see that you love her, actually everyone you've met with Rose could see you loved her. The Tardis says. Just tell her. She needs to hear you say it.
"I... I just want you" I breath.
"What?" She says bluntly.
"I just want to be with you. I don't want perfect, I don't want rich or sophisticated, I want someone compassionate and caring, which is basically you. I want...No. I need you. Your the only person who makes me better. Turns me from the monster I am to the Hero of the universe."
She grabs the lapels of my jacket and pulls me down, so my lips coming crashing down onto hers. And now I know I was right, who needs perfect, I've got Rose. She's perfect enough. But I can't help but think...
What does this mean? Does she love me? Does she want to be with me too? Or does she just want a kiss? Well either way, I'm really enjoying this kiss. It's unbelievable. Why haven't I done this before? I ought to do this more often, a lot more.
Unfortunately we both needed to breath, so Rose broke the kiss. We lie there, staring into each other's eyes, waiting for one of us to break the silence.
She does.
"Don't do that to me again. Please"
"I won't Rose. I'll never leave you."
"Good."
"Does this mean...you...ah..."
"It means I love you, yeah."
"Right, good, love you too...if you were wondering. But then again why would you wonder, I've just told you I need you. Which usually means that you love some one, but you might of thought it meant something else. Which is likely so-"
"Doctor, just shut up and kiss me."
"Yeah, I think I might do that."
I press my lips against hers and caress her cheek with my thumb as the runs her fingers through my hair. And believe me nothing is more perfect than this moment.
Nothing is more perfect than Rose Marion Tyler.
Lift your eyes and let me in, 'cause baby I'm an alien like you. Would you ever wake at night and realise the reason why you knew me then. Is maybe I'm an alien too, will you ever let me be an alien with you. Alien like you-The Pigott Brothers

I think they're a vegetable. Anyway please review and if you have any suggestions for future one shots review them. I'm in desperate need of ideas so HELP! Please.
