Rose woke to find the morning sunlight shining on her from the outside, she felt warm and contented listening to the sound of the birds once again like the previous mornings.

But unlike the previous mornings today Rose woke with a splitting headache, with a groan she decided to attempt to sit up but decided not too as it actually made it all the worse.

"Oh my head" she said after a few minuets of deciding whether to get up or not and in the end deciding too do so.

"Well not surprised, you did get a little tipsy last night" the Doctor replied from the corner.

"A bit I have a feeling that's probably an understatement" Rose replied

"Well okay maybe just a bit of an understatement" the Doctor said smiling at her as he sat on the bed.

"Oh god I didn't do anything stupid did I?" Rose asked

"Well there was this one point of the evening, where you and Shareen decided it would be very funny to dance and drink at the same time" the Doctor said smiling at her. "Which of course ended in a lot of things being very wet" he carried on making Rose laugh a bit but stopped when she remembered her head.

"Here this'll help a bit, there not as strong as the ones at Christmas but they'll help a little bit" he said handing her a tablet and some water which she gladly accepted. "Especially as we have a plane to catch"

"Oh I'd completely forgotten about that!" Rose said springing out of bed with energy she didn't quite know how she'd got. "We'd better get packing other wise- oh" she said feeling very dizzy and the Doctor sprang up from his position on the bed to steady her.
"I've got you" the Doctor said taking hold of her shoulder and steadying her "Take it easy" he said gently. "It's nine thirty now, the plane is at two which means we have to be at the airport for twelve. We leave here at eleven thirty" the Doctor said gently rubbing the side of her face soothing it from the head ache she was currently having.

But it was more than just something that soothed her head, there was something different about it. It was as if someone was inside her head making her feel safer than she had done ever before in her life. She felt happiness, laughter, relaxation, wonder, trust, comfort, loneliness, sadness, confusion. They weren't her own feelings though, it was what ever was in her mind, but then she realised it was the Doctor.

She wanted to pull him in closer enjoying the intimacy of the moment, but just as suddenly as it had come it had gone, and the Doctor dropped his hands back down to his side, looking up at him he looked slightly flustered and if he ever could do this slightly embarrassed, as if what just happened wasn't intended to go that far.

"Right, I'll get packing" the Doctor said turning away looking slightly flustered as he pulled out Rose's case from off the shelf.

"Doctor" Rose said making him turn round to face her.

"Yes?"

"Thank you" she said softly and the two just smiled at each other a silent understanding passing between them.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Adam stood waiting for everyone else to come out of the waiting room; the plane had to be boarded in about fifteen minuets.

Adam looked over to where Rose was sitting quietly discussing something with the Doctor, they were laughing at something and then seeing Rose pulling her into a hug. They looked so happy together, mind you they'd been happy together before when he'd first met them.

He could have been part of that if he'd hadn't of messed everything up, if he hadn't have messed everything up then his mother would still be alive. Well technically she was, but he couldn't see her ever.

On the day his mother had died he managed to transport himself back to 2005, because he had the knowledge to mange to travel through time. That had taken weeks though, to prepare but he'd managed it in the end.

At first his intentions had been to try and meet the Doctor at the same time as Rose did, but then someone had found all the newspapers and he'd been admitted to a mental hospital for being obsessed over something that wasn't real.

But then he'd met Shareen, of course he knew who she was at once, and because of that he'd started to get better with his obsession because he knew that if he got close to Shareen he'd get close to Rose and the Doctor. But then as time went on, something else happened, something that made him realise that he couldn't change what had happened, he couldn't change the future of what happened to his mother.

And that, that was the most important lesson someone could ever teach him.

That was the lesson of love.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Rose sat in the waiting room waiting for the others to come back, they'd all escaped to the gift shop except the Doctor who had gone to get some tea for the both of them. She hadn't been able to stop thinking about what had happened earlier that day and she wasn't even sure if it was him inside her mind.

"Here" the Doctor said sitting down next to her and handing her the cup of tea.

"Thanks" Rose said smiling at him, then remembering that she'd gotten him something. "Here I have got you something" Rose said pulling the littled present out of her bag she was taking on board as hand luggage.

"And what have I done to deserve this?" the Doctor asked opening the little package.

"Just being you" Rose replied and as he opened it her smile widened when he saw what it was.

"Oh it's travel scrabble" the Doctor said "Oh this is great, it'll come in handy as well as travelling is pretty much all I do"

"Exactly travelling is all you do" Rose replied "I just thought you might want something to remind you of our little TARDIS free trip to Paris" Rose said looking at her feet. "Because I didn't want you to ever forget what a good time we've had and well I thought-"

"Rose" the Doctor said lifting her chin up gently with his finger "I could never forget it"

"Really?" Rose asked

"Yeah" the Doctor said

"Good" Rose replied and the Doctor pulled her into a hug knowing that there was something up; he could just tell by the way she was looking.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing I was just thinking" Rose said

"About what?" the Doctor asked.

"I was just a bit confused" Rose replied "I don't know whether it was just me or not but, earlier something happened, what was it?" Rose asked and the Doctor could tell that she was on about when he'd been inside her mind.

"I was inside your mind" the Doctor said "I honestly didn't mean to though it was-" the Doctor started.

"It's okay, I don't mind" Rose said "I just wondered what it was because I felt-" Rose started but stopped.

"What?" the Doctor asked.

"It felt as though you'd sent all these emotions into me and I liked that, but there was two things that got me and I mean really got me"

"What were they?" the Doctor asked.

"It felt as though you were confused"

"Confused, no Rose I'm not confused" the Doctor said.

"Okay" she said but he could see that she didn't believe any of it.

"What else did you feel?" the Doctor asked

"I felt whole" Rose said smiling at him and he was about to answer when the loud speaker announced.

"The 2:07 plane to London Heathrow is now boarding" it was time to get there plane, to go home.

"Me too" the Doctor replied before getting up and walking over to where they needed to be.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Rose sat in the garden enjoying the sunny whether, especially sunny for a march late afternoon.

They'd gotten back from the air port, this time the Doctor hadn't gotten himself into any mischief, in fact this time all they'd done was play travel scrabble.

Shareen had gone out to pick up the brides maids dresses, but Rose and Keisha had stayed behind, waiting for Shareen to come back and take them to their dance class, or at least Shareen, and Adam's dance class. Keisha, Rose and the Doctor were just going to watch.

"So where have you two been then?" Keisha asked suddenly

"All over the place" Rose replied.

"Right, but where exactly is all over the place?" Keisha said turning to look at him.

"Well we've been all over Europe" Rose replied.

"What so you've been to places like Rome, St Petersburg, Berlin, Venice" Keisha asked.

"Yes" Rose asked "We've been to all those places" Rose replied

"Just the two of you"

"Yep" Rose replied "Well most of the time, there was this one other guy but he left ages ago"

"Right" Keisha said "That's nice, that it's just the two of you travelling"

"Yeah, well I quite like it as well" Rose replied smiling "When we were in Venice, it was the first time that we were truly alone, and he took me on a boat trip and we saw all the sights that Venice has to offer. It was fantastic" Rose said "I mean we'd been alone before don't get the wrong idea here but that time it was-"

"Different" Keisha finished off for her. "You know when you went off after that argument at dinner"

"Yeah" Rose replied.

"He was so worried about you, he didn't stop looking for you for a very long time" Keisha explained.

"Really?" Rose asked

"Yeah" Keisha replied "Your very lucky Rose"

"I am?" Rose asked

"Yes" Keisha said "Because not only have you managed to go travelling for free" which made Rose laugh along with Keisha "And because you've managed to get someone that cares for you and will do anything for you"

"I know" Rose said

"Well I'm glad that you're at least slightly aware of it" Keisha said "He loves you, you know"

"You think so?" Rose asked

"Yeah I really do" Keisha said

"That doesn't matter, because we can't be anything more than what we are. He's different to other people" Rose replied

"How is he any different?" Keisha asked

"Well for starters he doesn't do domestic-" Rose started

"But he does Rose, he may not like it but he's done it. He's done it for the past three days all so you could come here and see your friends"

"Oh God Keisha, your right" Rose replied some much of the past making sense now. "I'm going to see him"

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Rose entered the kitchen to find the Doctor sitting quietly fiddling with a pen in his hand.

"Doctor you've been quiet all day what's going on?" Rose asked coming up behind him, and placing a hand on his shoulder. "You can tell me"

"When you said I was confused earlier you were right" the Doctor said turning round to face her completely dismissing what he'd said earlier. Although he was still confused, he was confused about what she'd said the night before. He wasn't even sure about how he felt at this very moment in time. Maybe it would be something that would come to him later, at least that was what he hoped.

"I knew there was something, I just knew it" Rose said "What's going on?" Rose asked deciding not to go off on an rant quite yet.

"It's Adam he's in the wrong time line" the Doctor replied "He has somehow managed to get to 2007 when he is twenty years old, Rose he should be fifteen not twenty in 2007" the Doctor said and Rose realised all of a sudden that he was right, but she hadn't noticed.

"How long have you known?" she asked

"I only realised yesterday" the Doctor replied truthfully.

"Okay well won't it create a massive paradox him being here right now?" Rose asked sitting on the chair.

"Well yes and no. It would only do that if he met himself or a parent, but he obviously hasn't" the Doctor said
"But he's met us, won't that do something?" Rose asked

"No unless something was to go wrong" the Doctor replied.

"Have you talked to Adam yet?" Rose asked

"No" the Doctor replied

"ROSE!!" came Shareen's shout from inside the house.

"Oh great" Rose said

"Let me talk to Adam, you go and deal with Shareen" the Doctor said and Rose nodded before going out of the door and joining Shareen in the corridor.

"Right Rose could you go and get my shoes from upstairs there in Adam's room?" Shareen asked
"Yeah sure" Rose said "We'll meet you there with the shoes yeah?"

"Yep" Shareen replied "Oh look we're gonna have to go Adam will just have to be late"

"I'll get them there" Rose shouted from up the stairs.

She made her way over to Adam's room but she hadn't got any idea where the shoes might be.

Pulling open the cupboard she managed to find the shoes that Shareen was after, but they were under a load of papers. Trying to stop the papers from falling she managed to pull the shoes from underneath but not before a couple of papers fell down.

She looked down and saw a picture of herself on the front cover and the words

ROSE TYLER MISSING

oooooo

"You alright Doctor" Adam asked as the Doctor entered the room he was busy packing his bag for the dance class.

"Oh I'm okay you?" the Doctor replied.

"Yeah, I'm fine" he replied "Haven't managed to talk to you"

"No your right we haven't had a lot of time to talk and you know what I think talking might just be a good thing"

"What do you mean?" Adam asked

"I've guessed Adam, I know you're in the wrong time line" the Doctor said walking over to Adam.

"Ah" Adam said knowing exactly what was coming.

"What are you up to Adam, because what ever it is if something was to go wrong then it could be catastrophic" the Doctor said "And trust me you don't want that hanging on you're shoulders for the rest of your life"
"I know it looks bad but really I can explain" Adam said but was interrupted by Rose coming into the room.

"You don't have to though do you Adam" a voice came from the door, she was holding the newspapers that she'd found from up stairs.

"Rose really-" Adam started but Rose interrupted her.

"But it is what it looks like" Rose said looking Adam straight in the eye. "Why else would you have all these newspapers not just about me, but the Doctor as well, to me this looks exactly like your trying to trace us through history"

"Rose please let me explain-"

"No, because I already know, it was all about finding us before we even met and changing history, just so you could save you mother" Rose said "That's why you got admitted to hospital isn't it, that's why you met Shareen"

"It may have started like Rose, but I swear-"

"No you know what, you're just like him aren't you. You're trying to get to me and the Doctor through my friends" Rose shouted at him slamming the newspaper down on the sofa before storming out the door.

Adam looked towards the Doctor, who was glaring at him just like he had been minuets before.

"Doctor-"

"Adam is what Rose said true?" the Doctor asked "Is that why you wanted to find us?" and Adam nodded in response.

"Shouldn't you be going after her?" Adam asked

"Nope" the Doctor said

"Why not"
"Because I can just about fix the paradoxes, but I can't make her trust you again. That's something you have to do on your own." The Doctor said "Run before its too late" and he looked at Adam one last time before he ran out after Rose.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

He saw her at the end of the street running in the direction of the shops.

"ROSE!!!" he shouted before running after her. "WAIT" he ran to catch up with her but she was soon out running him.

He could tell that there was no way he was going to catch her here, so he waited until she was sitting down at a park somewhere before trying to talk to her.

"Rose" he said gently touching her arm but she instantly jumped up.

"What?" she asked her voice bitter with anger.

"I'm sorry" Adam said "You were never meant to find those papers I-"

"But I did Adam" Rose replied "They weren't exactly hidden very well were they"

"I know I'm sorry. What you saw what you read it can't have made you feel good" Adam said softly. "But I think you and the Doctor both deserve an explanation as to why all this happened"

"I already know and so does the Doctor" Rose said "I guessed"

"I know but listen to me it may have started out like that but then I met Shareen" Adam said looking down at the floor.

"And how does making Shareen make this any different" Rose asked.

"I fell in love alright" Adam said looking up "I fell in love with Shareen"

"Oh" Rose said "I thought that-"

"I know what you thought Rose and you're wrong" Adam said "It may have started out like that, but not any more because as I got to know her, I realised that I couldn't save my mother" Adam replied as Rose sat down on the bench.

"I'm sorry" she said after a minuet "I've behaved like such a prat today you must think that-" Rose started but Adam stopped her.

"No I don't, after what happened with Jimmy Stones I don't blame you"

"How did you know?" Rose asked but then realised that it must have been Shareen "Never mind"

"So are we okay now?" Adam asked

"Just about yeah" Rose replied smiling at him.

"Good" Adam said "Okay Shareen is so going to kill me when I get to dance class"

"Eh, oh right" Rose said she seemed to be in her own little world. "Right well you better get off then"

"See you" Adam said before setting off at a run and that was when she realised just how much he must love Shareen, because there aren't many people that would fall for there nurse and chose them over saving their mother are there.

And so Rose on that day at the end of march, began to walk back towards Shareen's house, not really being in the mood to watch a lot of dancing, hoping that the Doctor would be there, to greet her as she had decided to explain about what had happened with Jimmy Stones.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The Doctor was sitting out in the garden when he heard the front door bang close and he knew exactly who it must be.

And he was right when he saw the blonde haired woman, standing at the conservatory

door just with out Adam.

It had taken all his guts to not go after her himself, to let another man go after her and sort things out. Because he was so used to doing that, if something went wrong then it would be him that went to her and tell her everything was going to be alright.

But maybe it wasn't just because he wanted to do that, maybe it was because there was something else there, something else a lot more powerful than just will power, maybe just maybe it was the power of Love.

"Everything okay?" he asked when she reached the decking down at the bottom of the garden and sat down next to him.

"Yeah" Rose said looking down at the floor. "God I'm such a stupid ape"

"Why do you say that?" the Doctor asked.

"Well for starters I didn't even think about Adam being in the wrong time line" Rose said.

"Rose it didn't even occur to me until yesterday" the Doctor replied

"Yeah?"

"Yes" the Doctor replied "You may be an ape but you're not stupid"

"Thanks" Rose said pulling him into a hug "For everything" and he just smiled at her another silent understanding passing between them.

"Doctor I need to explain to you about something" Rose said "I should have done this along time but you see…."

And so Rose explained about Jimmy Stones, on that March evening sitting on the decking at the back of her friends house. Which made them both reflect on their feelings towards one another, especially after that morning and the evening before, but both of them knew somewhere deep down exactly how each other felt. They just hadn't realised it yet.

But neither of them knew that in a very short amount of time, they would both know exactly how each other felt.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

AN: There you go next chapter up. I have managed to get this up slightly earlier than I expected so I'm happy.

I'll up date again soon, but yet again I don't quite know when that will be.

Hope you like it please R&R.

Preview of Chapter Eight:

"But there is a point though, people wouldn't have birthday party's if they didn't want people recognise it, you wouldn't have mothers day if you didn't want to celebrate the role of mothers. You wouldn't have weddings if you didn't want to show your family and friends just how much you love that person your marrying" the Doctor said looking down at Rose who was lying down on the bed.

"But surely there's other ways to show someone just how much you love them. Marriage and weddings it's all very normal and domestic" Rose replied "What about the people who don't have a normal life, who don't do domestics, what about all those people who are with the people they love yet they can't tell them or their friends or their family" Rose said looking up at the ceiling.

"What you getting at?" the Doctor asked.

"I mean what about those people who can't tell the person they love, that they do love them" Rose said "What do those people do?"
