3 months later

I pounded on the back door, "Amy, It's locked. Let me in please!" I half laughed. I shoved my hands in my pockets to warm them up, it got really cold in Leadworth in winter. My fingers wrapped around something in my left pocket, my sonic screwdriver. "I'm so thick." I muttered to myself, forgetting I had made myself a new sonic. I unlocked the door and let myself in to the house.

I walked into the kitchen, seeing no one was there, so I called out, "Hey, Amy? Rory? Anyone home!" No response. I heard footsteps pounding down the stairs, and Rory came around the corner.

"Oh hey, didn't know you'd be home so fast. How'd it go?" He asked, handing me a cup of tea.

I jumped on one of the stools sitting by the countertop, "Well the man that was interviewing me didn't believe I was '23' he said I only looked 15."

"That's because you do. And you couldn't exactly say that you're really 910 or so." He chuckled.

"Oh shut it. If I actually want to lead a normal life I need a job!" I shuddered, "Didn't think I would ever say that."

Rory gave me a quick hug, "Hey, being normal isn't so bad, miss time lord. You even made yourself a new sonic screwdriver. Pretty impressive."

"Not really, any time lord could make one." I pulled out my sonic and played around with it.

"So why don't you just send a signal using your sonic? The Doctor would get it wouldn't he?"

"Yes he'd get it. But he wouldn't actually come! Don't be so daft." I muttered. Just then Amy walked in.

"Oh hi Leah! How'd the job interview go?" Amy asked.

"Splendid." I rolled my eyes and gave a sarcastic smile, "How do you think it went?"

"You'll find something, don't worry." She reassured me.

"Right." I chuckled, "If it involves saving the world, time travel, or killing aliens. Amy, let's be realistic here, I'm not meant for earth."

"You survived just fine before you met the Doctor."

"That's because I had put a time seal on my old life. I actually thought I was a normal human. Now I remember my whole life, everything about it. I can't pretend anymore." I jumped off the stool and shuffled to my room. I flung myself on the bed and buried my head under my pillow.

The sounds of the engine were like music to my ears. I jumped up out of bed and I swear I could of cried. There in the garden, blue as ever, was the TARDIS. I ran downstairs and out the door. Soon I found myself pounding on the door.

"Doctor! Doctor, open up!" I yelled.

He opened the door, "LEAH!" He wrapped his arms around me. "I'm so sorry I left, I tried to come back I really did, but the TARDIS wouldn't allow me to come here." He smacked the side of the TARDIS.

I gave him a kiss, "I couldn't stay mad at you." Wait, what did I say? Of course I was angry at him. Come on Leah, spit it out. Tell him how you feel. Just as I was about to pull him in for another kiss, my eyes flew open. I looked around my small room, it had just been a dream.

I buried my head under the pillow again, and drifted back into sleep. I don't know how long I was asleep for, but I woke to the sound of Amy pounding on my door. "Leah get your ass out of bed! You've been in there for almost two full days, you need to eat something." Oh, two days. Ha, not bad. I went over and opened the door.

"What." I said sardonically.

"Come down stairs, you need to see this." I could tell she was holding back a smile.

"Amy I'm honestly not in the mood. Can I please go back to bed?"

"The last thing you need is sleep right now!" She had to drag me down the stairs. Before we turned into the kitchen, she tied a blindfold around my eyes. "Don't you dare peek."

She led me into the kitchen, and pushed me into something warm. Two arms wrapped around me in a hug. Strong arms, so it wasn't Rory. "Can I look at my kidnapper now?" I asked sarcastically.

"Yes." Said the voice, whose had possession of me. Oh god, no. No. No, it couldn't be. Not that voice please. I ripped off my blindfold in a flash, and stared into the eyes of Mr. Captain Jack Harkness.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked, totally taken aback.

"I remember you mentioning him to me once, since you obviously need someone to talk to who understands, I thought I'd bring him." Amy said. Rory looked uncomfortable, and Jack looked pleased, strange.

"I thought you hated me." I told Jack. Amy gasped, and I shot her a look.

"Well, I did. But then I had some time to think. A lot of time. I realized that you couldn't control that you came back three months late. Ever since, I've been trying to find you." Jack admitted.

"That doesn't sound like the Captain I know." I mentioned cautiously.

"What can I say? You changed how I think." He admitted again.

I scoffed. "Right, me changing Captain Jack's morales."

He shook his head. "Look, I'm here to cheer you up, fancy a walk?"

I looked over to Rory for guidance, he nodded his head as if saying I should give it a shot. I looked at Jack, "Sure, I have a lot to get off my chest." I grabbed my coat and Jack and I walked to the park.

"So first off, how's the Doctor?" Jack asked.

I glared, "Gone. Abandoned me."

He looked shell shocked, "That's what this is all about? That bastard left you!" He roared.

"Yeah he kinda did, and after I sort of told him I loved him." I snapped.

"You told him you loved him?"

"Not exactly, but I think he got the message." And so I poured everything out to Jack. I told him every single thing that happened since he sort of banished me.

"So you've been through hell." He sighed.

"Hell and back again. I'm stuck here Jack. Time lord stuck on Earth? Yeah, that's hell." He wrapped his arm soothingly around me, and I shrugged his arm off. "No, don't do that."

He sighed, and I rolled my eyes. I haven't exactly been a very 'nice' person the last few months. Really I've only been nice to Rory, and somewhat Amy. Then, to prove I wasn't dreaming, I pinched myself. Ok, I was definitely awake, and I heard the engine sounds I've so longed to hear. Jack and I stared blankly at each other, and I quick whipped around to see the TARDIS materialize under a large Oak tree.

"No way." I choked the words out. Some part of me wanted to smile and laugh, but the smarter half of me knew better. It couldn't actually be there, could it? After all, seeing is believing, right? I stood up and walked numbly over to the blue doors. The Doctor swung them open, and flashed me his famous smile that three months ago would of made me giggle and smile right back.

Now I knew better. I looked at him with dead eyes, and slapped him across the face. "Where the hell have you been!"

Please, no one get attached to Leah/Rory. That will NEVER happen. Ew ew ew ew. *shudders* Also, like the chapter name? Hahaha :) SO PLEASE R&R!
