It had been 2 days. Mai told the other nothing of her short trip to Oxford, and kept to herself mostly. So that afternoon, she lay on the sofa after a knackering day at work with her head on Sam's lap.
"I don't see why you don't go freelance like Mickey and Martha did to be honest." Sam muttered as they half watched the telly, curling her hair in his fingers.
"Whatever aliens I was facing might figure out who I was, not in the mood for being kidnapped."
"Why don't you just leave UNIT all together?"
"They won't let me, it's protection or something. So some pyscho aliens don't come after me."
"I'd come for you if they did, don't worry." He sighed, placing a kiss on her forehead. "Right, I'm going to get a pizza for us." He said, moving her legs and grabbing his wallet, walking out of the door.
"Extra cheese!" She called out as he shut the door, chuckling to herself. She picked up her phone, looking at a picture of alien tech she'd photographed earlier before dropping it accidently. She picked it back up and looked at the screen, now a picture of her and Sky, way back when Sarah-Jane was still dead. She sighed and stuffed the phone in her pocket before looking round to see the flat was clear, pulling out her bag from under the sofa that was packed with all her stuff in, taking her sonic out of her other pocket and gripping it tightly, she had hardly touched it since the day River and The Doctor went. She put it back in her pocket, and grabbed the bag, walking out the front door and not looking back.
...
"Sky, were back!" Rani called as her, Sarah-Jane and Clyde walked into the attic. Sky looked up from her phone and smiled at them. They all walked round the attic, talking to Mr Smith and Sky about a Slitheen at the library as Sky sat there, chewing the inside of her mouth nervously. She pulled out her phone again and read over the texts.
I saw her. After 6 months, I saw her Sky. And it broke me. x
She sighed one more time, looking down at the phone before typing out a quick reply without looking at the screen, cautiously watching the others.
I want you two back together, I want everything back as normal. But Luke, even I have to admit after you lost the baby... x
The others blabbed on, telling her about the Slitheen in the library and how they stopped it before she looked back at her phone, a reply coming through.
She didn't seem right. x
Right, that was it.
For christ sake Luke, you know he is the only one that's gonna keep her tamed, but he's gone, so maybe this time you need to give up and bloody accept it, your not the only one who misses her and wants her back! x
He replied straight away.
Me, give up on her? Never. x
Sky grinned, putting her phone into her pocket, turning her attention properly to the others.
"So, Slitheen in the library, bet that was fun." She half asked, glancing at them.
...
"Were back!" Sadie called, walking through the hallway and into the living room, Charlie walking behind her, Harley clutching onto his hand as he toddled along.
"Have you seen Mai?" Sam asked in a rush, jumping up suddenly as they walked in.
"We've only just got in, course we haven't!" Sadie chuckled nervously. "Why?"
"She's gone."
"Well I'm sure she'll be back soon, she's probably just gone round the shop." Charlie said, picking Harley up.
"Her stuffs gone." Sam said as Sadie took a sip from a drink. "And her sonic."
"Her sonic?" Sadie spluttered, nearly choking on her drink.
"Shit." Charlie muttered. "Ok, I'll take Harley to my Mum's and we'll start looking." He said, turning back round and heading out the front door.
Sadie and Sam paced round the flat for a good 15 minutes, never off the phone trying to ring her. They didn't ring The Doctor and River or Amy and Rory, or even Torchwood or Sarah-Jane, just incase. But they kept ringing her phone, but no answer. Then, out of the blue, a knock came from the door. Sadie and Sam looked at each other before running towards the door, flinging it open.
"It's you!" Sam roared angrily, leaping forward.
"Sam, don't!" Sadie said, pulling him back. She sighed, looking at the other side of the door. "She's gone." She said sourly.
