Clara remained sobbing in his arms, feeling useless and soiled. I was raped. I was raped. I was raped. The single thought played over and over in her mind like a broken record. It took a while until she was able to wrap her head around everything and she pushed herself from the Doctors tightly protecting arms.

" Doctor," she started, trying to avoid his eyes as much as possible. " He.. He took me away. I was walking, taking in the scene, and he followed me. I ran when I realized what he was doing but he caught up, soon we ended up in a dark alley, behind a cart. Doctor it was terrible!" She burst into tears again, " He hurt me so much."

He moved in to hug her once again, feeling so guilty knowing that he could have been there. Now the woman he loved with all of his heart was broken in front of him, and he couldn't do anything to change it.

" Oh Clara, I am so so sorry." He began to tear up himself. She was so innocent and so fragile, and some one had to ruin her.

" Doctor, what am I going to do? I can't live with myself like this. I feel so useless."

" Don't you say that," He pushed her away so he could look her in the eyes. " You are my impossible girl. I will help you Clara, what ever it takes I will help you." He placed a kiss on her forehead and scooped her up bridal style. She nuzzled into his shoulder as he carried her from the library and into his bedroom.

" Doctor why did we come here? Why did you not bring me to my room?" She asked confused. " I'll be ok Doctor."

" I'm not letting you out of my sight, you've been gone for too long now, I don't want to miss you anymore." The Doctor said, keeping the fact that he wanted nothing more than to spend a night with her to himself. He placed her on the bed and took a second to look her over. The look of her looking back up to him while laying on his bed was almost overwhelming to him. He started to back and turn away from her before he felt her grab onto one of his suspenders. He twisted around once again to see Clara looking back with her big brown eyes. Immediately he couldn't take it anymore. He kneeled taking one last look at her before trapping her lips with his. His mind left him briefly to be replaced with swirling patterns of pure happiness. They worked together, kissing softly at first but started to quicken their pace. He pulled on her bottom lip, sucking gently asking for entrance. She replied with tracing her tongue around his lips, tasting him. She felt as though nothing else mattered in that moment. Every bad emotion was replaced with the sudden want for the man above her. Butterflies gathered in her stomach as his tongue entered her mouth, exploring every inch of her. Their want for each other turned into a need, their pace quickening as he moved from his position on the floor onto the bed. Her arms wrapped around his neck and he supported himself on his arms as he hovered over her. She pulled him in to deepen the kiss. After a few minutes of their passion, they broke, he moved to kiss along her jawline and down to the base of her neck. Her hands tangled in his hair as he gently sucked, kissed and nipped at her sensitive skin. He love that when he nipped at one spot in particular Clara would softly moan. it was probably one of the best sounds he had ever heard, even more than the TARDIS when flying. Getting caught in the moment, he reached one hand to find the bottom hem of her shirt, lifting only slightly, but making Clara tense up and flinch. That brought him back to reality.

"I'm sorry, I-I wasn't thinking," he stuttered.

" It's ok Doctor.. Just the memories." She whispered. He gave her one last meaningful kiss before he broke away and got off the bed. His mind was swimming with guilt yet again.

" Goodnight, my Clara." He whispered as he walked from the side of the bed to the door. He flicked off the lights and took a left down the hall, disappearing from the situation.

" Goodnight Doctor.." Clara whispered, taking in the darkness. She drifted off to sleep soon, tired from her eventful day. In the early stages of her dreams she was with the Doctor. They were sitting peacefully under a starry night sky, looking up and pointing out the directions of where to go next. They sat atop a hill with a view of the ocean. The black water only made visible by the waves that crashed to the shore. The moment was simple and beautiful. Suddenly everything turned sour. She felt an overwhelming fear creep into her body, the ocean began to still and the waves stopped crashing, the stars began to go out one by one over their heads. Confused, she looked up to ask the Doctor what was happening, only to meet the face of a scaly reptilian creature.

" Hello," he hissed. Clara screamed as he covered her mouth and rolled on top of her. He pinned her shoulders down as he straddled her waist and began shaking her. Everything felt so real. She felt the weight of him sitting on her, and felt the force of him shaking her struggling body.

" What are you going to do Clara?! Clara!.. clara!... clara," his yelling became more distant, and the loud sharp voice morphed into a concerned call, pleading for her to wake.

" clara... Clara.. Clara! Clara wake up!" She opened her eyes to the Doctor, straddling her hips and shaking her shoulders as she was still screaming and crying for help.

" Doctor he was there, he was there on top of me, I know it was I saw him!" She cried.

" Shhh, Clara it's ok, he's not here, it was a dream you're ok trust me," he looked down at her with concern. She began to relax and he peeled himself off of her and stood beside the bed, ready to leave.

" Doctor wait!..." She almost felt embarrassed when she grabbed to the back of his shirt once again. "... Can you stay with me tonight?.." He gave her a strange look without realizing, making her feel even more embarrassed. " Never mind, it was stupid of me to ask. I'm fine I'll be ok. "

" No, no, s-sorry, absolutely. Of course Clara." He pulled back the covers and laid on the edge of the bed, looking over at her. " There, I'm here now, nothing will get you." He remained so distant, making her feel like he wanted nothing more than to leave.

" Uh.. Ok, thank you Doctor." She said sadly, turning herself to face away from him. It was then that he realized how much of a jerk he was being. He moved closer, pressing his body against hers and held her protectively in his arms. This surprised her at first, but soon she gave into her weariness and began to slip away again. Before she completely drifted off she heard him whisper from behind.

" I love you, my impossible girl."

She smiled and replied," I love you too Doctor," before slipping back into peaceful dreaming once again.
