Dear Diary,

He looked at me, so confused the minute I said it I regretted it. He looked so expectant but I couldn't find the words to tell him what was bothering me so much. I knew he could tell. I usually would never have shied away from any challenge, but he was a challenge to big to face up to. He didn't try and pressure me, he didn't even speak, but the look in his eyes was pressure enough. I had no way of knowing how he would react to this. I was so ecstatic when I found out; ever since I first met him I'd wanted to know what it was like. After he told me all he remembered, the way he looked so wistful when he recalled old memories, I thought he wouldn't mind, but looking at him now, he seemed, different somehow, broken in a way. Maybe this would repair the damage, may be it wouldn't. Now I'd told him I had something to say there was no backing down, he wasn't the sort of man to let me do that. Maybe he would be angry, maybe he would cry; maybe he would run around screaming for joy. How could I know, but what if where getting me no were. I had to tell him.

'There's something you need to know' she felt her cheeks flush red as soon as she said it. Now the words were out of her mouth she couldn't take them back, but by God she wished she could. He looked at her expectantly as she tried to hide under her cascade of bottle blond hair.

'I…' if she was going to say now would be one hell of a time to do it. Two moths had passed and now she was about to trust him with government information, he could have changed so much in the time they'd been apart. As she looked at him she knew that he hadn't, deep in her heart she knew. She looked up at him, a new determination in her eyes.

'For the last two months I have been working for a group called A.R.T. Stands for Alien Research Team. There's three of us, they recruited me when they picked by the residual energy of the time vortex that's still in my system. They though I was an alien...' She laughed slightly, but looked up and caught the serious look in his eye before continuing.

'After I told them my story, they offered me a place in the team. I didn't know you were coming back, I though you were gone for good, you have to understand that.' She looked up at him looking for some acceptance in his eyes. He nodded silently asking her to continue.

'We… we tried to open a gateway to a new world, we thought that if we could find a new planet then all our natural resources would be replenished. We… we opened a hole in time and we found…planets that may thought were lost. Doctor, we found Gallifrey.'
