It's always different waking up when I've touched the Doctor. He's always still asleep as though I've knocked him out. It's nice to just watch him though because it doesn't happen very often and it's the only time he's completely calm. I wonder if he watches me when it's the other way around. He's a mystery. A mystery that I want to know everything about. In time perhaps I will. The moment he starts to wake up I know. I can feel something like a reboot. I get tingles all through my torso and neck. By the time he opens his eyes I'm tingling all over, like there's two of me. I expect he feels the same thing every day. I get a smile from him when he's fully awake. He's pleased to see me. He always is.

"Do you want to get some chips?" He asks me.

"Chips? Where from?"

"I was thinking Birmingham, 21st century. I know a good place."

"Sure. Chips sounds great."

I find something to wear, a t-shirt and jeans. I hear the whirring sound that means we've arrived.

"Ready to go?" He calls down the stairs. I rush up to meet him. I'm definitely ready to see Birmingham again. Once we've got the chips we walk around aimlessly. With no where to go we find a bench to sit on. It's not long before a police officer turns up.

"Is your name Alicia Bennett?" I freeze, I haven't been called that in two years. It's not long before I notice the pictures of me. "We had an anonymous call saying someone had seen a girl that looked like this young woman." I turn to the Doctor. Hopelessly it seems.

"Yes."

"I'm going to have to ask the both of you to come with me please."

When we arrive the officers have to force us apart because I cling so hard to the Doctor. They take me to a questioning room.

"Who was that man you were with Miss Bennett?"

I can't be away from him. I don't know where they took him, I, I...

"Who is he?"

"I want him back. I want him back now!" I hit the table forcefully.

"Alright, where have you been for the past two years?"

I begin crying. "We only went to get some chips."

"Please Miss Bennett if you can give us any information..."

"Give me my Guandan!" I scream at them. "He's restless, I can tell and I know it's because I've gone missing. He needs me." I whimper.

"What is a Guandan Alicia?"

"You would never understand." I spit at him. I try to tell him I'm alright, that they haven't hurt me but I don't even know if he can hear me.

I didn't tell the police anything, they would think I was crazy whether I told the truth or not so I just let my emotions run to stay in touch with my Guandan. My missing Guandan. Then come the nightmares. I've been kept in this room all night so eventually, with nothing to keep me occupied except the fear of being without my Doctor I fell asleep. I scream all the time I am asleep and shout nonsense all the time I am awake. I'm all over the place. Outside the door I hear other doctors and officers suggesting he must have done terrible things to me to be having tremors like these but they have it all wrong. I need him. I need him to be with me, to touch me. I need to touch him.
The doctors take me away to some mental hospital. It's hard for me there. They give me high doses of pills but they don't help much. The rash on my back has come back and my wrist has begun to burn. It won't stop burning. It only gets worse. Then the lines begin to form on my wrist where it burns, circles of flesh that are to distinct to be from a fire. My other wrist burns too but it's the lines my Guandan is receiving on his arm. The nightmares don't stop and the insomnia gets worse. Where is he? I know he is coming for me and I know it is difficult through all the pain and the fear but I know he is there.

He is there. I can't see properly but I'm sure he is there. He holds out his sleeveless arm keeping the other on my neck and I rub his inner elbow with my fingers. We both begin to breath slower. It would have been better if no one was here to see this but it's not our fault they kept us apart. We keep together in this way until we fall together into a long sleep. A sleep without screaming, without nightmares. Where neither of us can tell if the other is much better because we're both knocked out from the others touch. If one of us died we wouldn't know at the moment.
I think we woke up at the same time. I felt the usual electric energy I get when he wakes up from my touch. We were still in my cell at the mental hospital, we must have been in to much relief to think of moving once he found me. I don't know how long we were there but I felt something like I had died and woken up of the burn lines had gone and I saw he had my burns on his other wrist as well. The Doctor held his head against his hand. "We should move." he groaned. It was then that I noticed the TARDIS was in my room and there were nurses speaking through the door. We picked ourselves up and got in. We left just as the nurses entered. As soon as we could we made our way back to the bedroom to finish our nap. "No chips next time." I muttered before I fell asleep.
