Chapter 1: The Singing Towers of Darillium.
Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor Who. This is based from The Husbands of River Song and will be in two parts.
A/N: Sorry took so long to update this story, was really busy with work and laptop playing up.
I walked into the hotel and see Ramone and smile its nice to see he is still actually alive and happy, he leads me to where I'm going wherever that may be "So, Ramone, you have a metal body now?" I smile up at him as I ask the question knowing that he will be accommodating to answer me he always has been "Down, Girl." I hear the familiar voice behind me and my smile grows even bigger I've never thought of myself as the type of person that would want someone, to see someone so much but I'm happy to see him and to notice that he's changed out of that horrible burgundy jacket and into a black suit and tie then I notice that he has something in his hand, a present by the looks of it.
I smile at him approvingly in his suit and I can't help but let out a small chuckle as I look at my doctor "Now that, my dear, is a suit." I cant help but hug him as I reach him noticing that Ramone has left us alone "Happy Christmas" he says to me and I smile even more well that's definitely a first a present from the doctor, my doctor, this is interesting "Really? I don't think you've ever given me a present before." I say as I take the said present and open it to reveal a sonic screwdriver, the one I have no choice but to treasure and keep safe and not let anyone know about not even my mother and father, this will be something I take to my death, where he only just meets me if the timelines are right.
I gaze at the pillars in front of me and watch the sun setting behind them and smile it's such a beautiful place here and I know that maybe the stories are true what they say about us but looking at the doctor I know that they must be "Why are you sad?" I ask him noticing the tear running down his face, he smiles and looks at me "Why are you sad?" and I know he's just avoiding the question and I cant help but give him a sad smile knowing I told him at dinner not that I'd expect him to remember this doctor is very forgetful "I told you, my diary's nearly full. I worry."
I always find a way of remembering that there are stories about us me and the doctor and my sad smile turns into a slightly happy one "There are stories about us you know, I look them up sometimes." I tell him and I'm already sure he knows but I wanted him to know, wanted the questions or the lecture whatever I could get from him to make something normal out of this "You really shouldn't do that" he tells me and I know that some things wont change he always has managed to have this commanding tone over me being able to tell me what to do, I have missed it.
I look at him and I can see the tears falling down his face again and I have a feeling that one of the stories is true but he doesn't want to admit it "Some of them suggest that the very last night we spend together is at the Signing Towers of Darillium. That wouldn't be true, would it?" I ask him and I can tell by his face that there's something he wants to tell me but he's hesitating "Spoilers" only my doctor would say something like that. All I want to do I smack that smug look off his face, but I know that it's the truth even if he won't say it "Oh. Well that would explain why you kept cancelling coming here. Do you remember that time?" I start but I can see the warning look in his eyes almost begging me to stop "River, Stop." He says and I know that I've gone too far I can see it in his eyes.
I look out at the towers and smile, I didn't want to think this was the last time I'd be seeing my doctor, even though I know it may be for him but I know deep down that it wont be for me and it hurts inside, will he remember me after all that time I wonder "Mmm. What do you think of the Towers?" I look at him and I'm unsure how to respond I mean they are beautiful and I do love being in their sight, just knowing this is the last time he's going to see me has put a downer on it, I know I shouldn't be sad, as I know I will see him again but he wont see me "I love them." I tell him and I see him smile, the smile I'm going to miss the most, it wasn't fair.
He glances at me and I stare out at them I feel his concern etching onto me and I know that it won't be this way in my future and his past he'll look at me like I'm some random person "Then why are you ignoring them?" he asks and I know that I can't give him the answer he is looking for but I can tell him what I feel or at least try to "They're ignoring me. But then you can't expect a monolith to love you back." I answer in reply, I wasn't just answering about the towers but our relationship I never expected him to love me but if what my mum says is true then maybe he does love me.
I look him in the eyes when I notice him turn to me and I can't help but let the single tear that is forming in my eye drop "No you can't. They've been there for millions of years, through storms and floods and wars and time. Nobody really understands where the music comes from. Its probably something to do with the precise positions, the distance between both towers. Even the locals aren't sure. All anyone will ever tell you is that when the wind stands fair and the night is perfect, when you least expect it but always when you need it the most there is a song." I feel like I'm not the only one talking about our relationship I turn back and face the towers and smile.
I feel like the world is clouding over when he reaches up and grabs my hand that I have resting on the balcony "So, assuming tonight is all we have left." I start to speak but stop before I can finish knowing he is going to interrupt me at some point if I continue "I didn't say that." He says I smile inside knowing that it will be, my doctor, my savior of the universe, the one person I can always call and who will always answer "How long is a night on Darillium?" I needed to know I wanted to know how long we truly had left together but at the same time not wanting to know my insides turning at the simple thought of tonight ending "Twenty-four years."
I can't help but laugh and cry at the same time with that answer, I'm sure I'm going to have to create a new catch phase with the way he's being "I hate you." I tell him, he looks forward as I say that and I can feel his smirk without even having to look at him "No, you don't." I turn to look at my love and look him in the eyes "Your right I don't." I lean in for the kiss of a lifetime, the kiss to end all kisses or start.
He grabs my hand and pulls me away from the railings towards the entrance hall that I entered, he then leads me into the Tardis and I'm not sure what to expect knowing so little of him but so very much as well I wasn't sure where to go or what to do he's more doctor and knowing that he was upset about something, there was something he was refusing to tell me was upsetting to say the least, he'll tell me or I'll find out but right now I want to enjoy tonight my last night with the doctor.
As we enter he veers me to the left and up the stairs I smile knowing exactly where it leads to his room that he never sleeps in, I wish for once he would listen to me, if that was truly the case then why take us up here, he never brings anyone up here unless, oh my doctor, my sweet precious doctor, how I love him so, the crazy man, my husband "Why are we coming up here sweetie? You never sleep in your bed." I say to him and all he does is look back at me and smile, I can't help but smile up at him knowing that I will never be able to do anything different not whilst I'm with him.
He glances up the stairs then back down at me and smiles before picking me up wedding style and carries me up them "You know why some of the stories maybe true but not all of them are" he smiles at me as we near the end of the stairs "You know I never have the time to sleep in my own bed, to busy saving the earth or well anything else I tell you would be spoilers so I best not" he walks towards his bedroom and I cant help but smile his room with his king size bed that hasn't been slept in; in so long, the walls Tardis blue, oh he's got a window in here now well that's definitely new, I can't help but smirk at him.
He lies me down on the bed and I know what he's thinking and I all I can do is telepathically link myself to him "oh my doctor, just get on with it sweetie" I can feel the link between us getting stronger, the more I've been in his head the more I want to connect with him in so many other ways "doctor" I whisper to his head, I get of the bed and take of my fur coat, as well as unzip my dress I look over to my husband and see him eyeing me up and down like he's never seen me before, I feel myself starting to get aroused, just from the way he's looking at me this was new even for us.
I walk over to him and grab the lapels of his jacket and kiss him, knowing what it does to him, I feel him respond to me almost instantaneously, all I can do is smile whilst our lips were locked, my doctor, my raggedy man the person who was supposed to be dead, the person inside a tessalecta avoiding his own death, I lean in closer to him knowing that I'd be starting to feel his erection wake up "River stop." He pulls me away from him "Why, you've never minded before." He looks at me and cocks his head making him look like a lost puppy, before I even know what is happening, he grabs me and pulls me towards the bed.
That's more the doctor I know and love, the one that acts irrationally I know that things will never be the same towards us considering my diary is almost full but what can I do about it but think of ways to make this night, these 24 years something spectacular. I grab his belt and start undoing it wanting him near me forever, wanting him closer, I yank his pants and boxers down all in one move and notice how hard he is the man that never stayed, I start to take his shirt, jacket and tie off.
I lean down and grab his cock and start sucking his cock, I can feel him throbbing in my hand and mouth and I can tell he's close to cumming, I let him in my mouth, if this is all we have left I want him to remember it more than anything, I need him to remember me for all eternity till he dies or I do whichever happens first, he pulls me up towards him and kisses me on the lips tasting himself on me, all these mixed and lost feelings between us, all coming together at last.
My doctor the one person in the universe that can make me feel this way and not even realize that he does it. I notice in his eyes the sadness that lingers there, he knows my death and I can't help but want to know or how I can prevent it, I know he won't tell me, he knows id try and find a way to avoid it just like he does.
The kiss ends just like I know it has too "Doctor" I whisper.
That's when I realize the sun has come up and he hasn't even said goodbye.
He doesn't like endings.
Never has and never will.
My doctor.
My husband.
My Raggedy Man.
Goodbye.
