The Doctor stayed with Rose day and night, hoping and wishing she would wake up. He hated seeing her so still and lifeless. Jackie and Pete had offered to look after Jenny whilst the he was at the hospital, The Doctor was still waiting for Rose's doctor to come and explain the damage on Rose. As soon as The Doctor thought, as if by magic, her doctor came in.

"Mr Smith?" she asked, she was a tall woman, with dark hair and blue eyes, who looked in their mid forties. The Doctor simply nodded. "Hi, I'm Doctor O'Hara" she introduced and got on with what she came in for "Now, Mrs Smith's condition is stable" she said "For now, but we're going to keep an eye on her, she had a very close call" she explained and The Doctor continued to nod in understanding, not really trusting his voice at the minute "But, unfortunately Mrs Smith was pregnant" she said carefully and The Doctor stared at her with his mouth open in shock, "I'm sorry Mr Smith, but the baby didn't make it, Mrs Smith miscarried" she explained and The Doctor closed his eyes, as if there were tears to fall, but none did. "I'll leave you two alone" said Doctor O'Hara and left him alone with Rose.

Over the next few weeks, The Doctor never left Rose for more than a few minutes at a time or just him to go home for a very quick shower, then he would come right back to the hospital. Ben hadn't daren't come back to the hospital since the last time, but Pete updated him, letting him know how Rose's condition was, not that there was much difference from day to day. Jenny's birthday was coming up soon, as so far The Doctor hadn't even given it a second thought because of everything that had happened. All he wanted was for Rose to wake up, especially for Jenny's birthday. The Doctor would go home now and then for a couple of hours at a time to play with Jenny and just to see her, he hated not seeing her.

Weeks and weeks went by and The Doctor had barely slept, he was constantly drinking coffee to keep himself awake, he knew it wasn't doing him any good or Jenny any good, but he needed to stay by Rose.

Jenny's birthday came and went, and although everyone tried to have a good time, they couldn't hide their sadness and disappointment that Rose wasn't there. Everyone had a little party for Jenny and bought her presents which she played with all day. Jenny would constantly stay by The Doctor and play with his mobile pretending to have conversations with the imaginary person on the other line. Pete walked over to The Doctor and interrupted him for a minute.

"Hey, I have to leave" announced Pete "I'm sorry, it's a work meeting" he said and hugged The Doctor slightly.

"No, Pete it's fine, I'll see you later" said The Doctor and Pete made his exit. He quickly got a cab instead of driving and went down to the other end of London, where Ben's bar was. Pete quickly walked in and found Ben sitting there with a drink in his hand and he raised his arm with the drink up as he saw Pete.

"Pete! Here's my main man! How are ya?" he said as Pete walked.

"Good, thanks, I came to have a word with you"

"Alright" said Ben and told Pete to sit down, so he did.

"Do me a favour alright?"

"Alright what is it?"

"Just stay low for a little while longer alright?"

"What why?"

"Because, The Doctor still hasn't got over what you said! It broke him apart! And believe me, right now, I think if he see's you, you are gonna get one hell of a battering, and he's not that type of guy, but if he see's you, you better run yeah?" said Pete, sympathy was in his voice, he knew Ben well, he knew he cared about Rose and that all he wanted to do was see her.

"Alright" said Ben and Pete went towards the door "Hey, hey! Stay for a drink? Yeah? One drink" he said pointing up his finger close to his face "Just one!"

"Go on then, just one drink" said Pete and sat back down with Ben.

The Doctor had earlier put Jenny to bed and Jackie had offered to babysit whilst The Doctor went back to the hospital, Jackie knew it was hard for him to be torn between Jenny and Rose, but she knew that he needed to be with Rose as long as Jenny was ok.

The Doctor sat there on the uncomfortable wooden chair next to the bed, as per usual, holding Rose's hand and stroking her hair out of her face. The Doctor sat there for a while thinking about what Ben had said all those weeks ago about Rose kissing him, on their wedding day. The Doctor knew Rose wouldn't do that, it was their wedding day. Although she had done it once before. The Doctor quickly shook all the thoughts of Rose and especially Ben out his mind, the thought or mention of Ben made him angry. The Doctor went to thinking about what he, Rose and Jenny would all do together once Rose was better, he thought about going to the seaside or somewhere abroad for a holiday, Jenny would love all the sand to play with, building sandcastles and playing in the sea. It would be perfect. Doctor O'Hara came in with a smile and went to check on Rose to see how she was doing. The Doctor quickly back to thinking about what the three of them were going to do.

Although The Doctor's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a movement against The Doctor's hands, The Doctor looked down to see Rose's hands moving, after weeks and months of stillness, she was finally moving, proof that she was alive, of course he knew she was alive anyway, but this proved it.

"She's awake!" yelled The Doctor and jumped up suddenly, then whispered in Rose's ear "Rose, please, if you can hear me do that again" he begged and he felt a slight squeeze on his hand " Look! She's awake!" he yelled again and Doctor O'Hara looked over at him, and Rose, as if to prove me right choked for breath on the ventilator tube. Doctor O'Hara quickly moved over to Rose and removed the tube. The Doctor sighed in relief as he watched his wife's eyes open at look at him, taking in her surroundings. The Doctor kissed the top of her head and smiled.

"I knew you'd be ok" he said "I'm so glad to have you back" said The Doctor and sat back down and held her hand.
