A week later, they were on a planet. The Doctor just wanted her to have some peace. It was similar to Earth. It seemed to be always dark or getting dark outside. He landed the TARDIS on a hill, overlooking the ocean.
Rose had just finished getting dressed. They wasted no time taking her belongings to the Doctor's room. Her old room was just bare pink now, with a king-sized pink bed and dresser.
He stood at the doorway.
"Ready to see your surprise?"
"Of course."
Rose walked over toward him and kissed him on the lips.
It was perfect. They had spent hours catching up. On her life as Paige. On her life with her sister. On leaving her family. Rose at least had pictures and memories to take with her. She would always remember.
The Doctor led her out the doors. The sun was setting. In front of them was an ocean. They sat on the old concrete stairs. Not many people came here. It was nearly deserted.
Rose looked out at the ocean. She felt the Doctor sit behind her so she was in the middle of his legs. She felt his arms wrap around her.
"I love you," she promised.
"I love you," he promised too.
The sun set and a breeze danced on both of them. In the night sky, Rose noticed several different galaxies.
"Doctor?"
"Hm?"
"Those galaxies?" she pointed a finger.
"Hm hmmm. That one, we should go there. They have bananas as their sacred fruit. And that one," he pointed to a green one, "that one is where Earth is. Five billion years in the past."
Rose felt the cool breeze on her face again. A new chance. Another chance. To start again. Right.
A renewed hope. They had each other to love. To comfort each other. To be the yin and to be the yang. To complete each other. The Doctor was never happier. Rose was never more relaxed.
Rose Tyler and the Doctor: Defenders of the Universe. Fighting the aliens. More than she could ever expect.
