The Girl Who Waited and told ME to run !

by TaraGeek

She waited for the Doctor but in those 12 years she had to hold onto the truth no matter what the grown ups said. A "transfic" story. With Amy re-imagined as a trans woman. Don't like, don't read.

3. Chapter 3

Rory's POV

Amy's always been the brightest thing in my life.

Even when everybody knew her as a boy called Arthur it was just the two of us. When we sat together making finger puppets of her imaginary friend talking about fish fingers and custard. She always knew things that other people didn't.

When we were 14 sitting in her bedroom and she barely looked up from the carpet, her voice shaking telling me that she was a girl not a boy. I held her hands and I believed her.

I guess I shouldn't have been so surprised when her "Raggedy Doctor" turned out to be real too.

I always worried that a town called Leadworth and an ordinary boy called Rory wouldn't be enough for her. When he appeared I thought that the Doctor might be the one she wanted, the one she needed after all. She'd take her colour and light and end up somewhere amazing. Right from the start though it's always been me and Amy. She's the brightest thing in my life, even compared to all the wonders of the universe and as it turns out. She needs me too.
