The Time Lord felt as if his hearts were being torn in two. He knew this day had been coming - just not so soon. The Doctor takes River to Darillium...

Why did he always feel a big grin inside whenever she appeared?

It's the Doctor and River's last date. He's holding back the tears well enough, managing to laugh and eat and have a moderately good time. That is, until... until she tells him. That wonderful surprise she's been hoarding. And he breaks.

-But not always on time... Rated T for implied violence

She hates and loves this version of him – depending on the when.

River Song is in Stormcage, depressed and scared that she will destroy The Doctor with her secrets. However, when a very irritated Time Lord gets banged up in the same cell, romance ensues between the two. Rated T for saftey.

The Doctor leaves the scene of the crime, but where will he go from there?

River Song doesn't like being a damsel in distress, except in certain circumstances.

They will tell her story and end it like this: she died to save four thousand and twenty-three people. A noble self-sacrifice.

. . . so he names the galaxy after her, and impulsively she kisses him on the cheek, her breath sliding cool along the ridge of his cheekbone, which freaks him out more than a little.

Because not every moment with the Doctor is visiting a new planet, fighting for your life or saving the world. Sometimes it's just the two of them doing things far more important. These things you can't even write, you have to just live them.

The Doctor was the only one to ever manage to surprise her, but this was intangibly unthinkable. The Doctor in a papoose. With a baby. The night before her trial.

The Doctor and River find themselves thrown together at Christmas and must make one of the hardest decisions either could imagine.
