Chapter Twenty (Doctor`s Point of View)
(Now Listen to: "The Last Night: Skillet")
River knocked on my door. "Doctor, it`s been an hour! Stop moping around!"
"You don`t understand, River!" I yelled back. "It`s your fault, anyway!"
"Don`t make me come in there," She growled.
I groaned, slowly walked to the door, unlocked it, and sat on my bed covering my face with my hooves.
"Now, who was that?" She asked, taking a seat on a chair I had in the corner of my room.
"Ditzy Doo..."
"And why was Ditzy Doo so important? Tell me everything."
"I loved her, River, more than I`ve ever loved anyone else EVER. That`s a lot for me to admit, and you know that. She knew all of my secrets, not including my name, that`s a given... Blimey, I really messed up...
"She was the first one I met in Ponyville. The TARDIS acted up and brought me here, and Ditzy was there just... watching. We`ve been through so much."
"You loved her more than Rose Tyler? Sorry to say her name..."
"Yes, I do," I admitted. "I really, really do."
"But... what happened?"
"Are you stupid, River?" I yelled. "YOU showed up, and she got the wrong idea of YOU!"
"Oi, I wouldn`t have said that if I knew you two were dating!"
"You shouldn`t have come at all," I muttered. "Now look at me! She thinks I was cheating on her with YOU!"
"I`ll admit, you look like you got hit by a train."
"If my hearts could regenerate the same way we do, they would have regenerated twice today," I told her.
"That bad, huh..."
"Now she probably won`t even talk to me. I made her cry, River! I made her CRY!" Tears of my own started to pour out of my eyes. "I feel like a monster!"
"Settle down," River instructed me.
"I can`t! How can I, River? How...?" I buried my face deeper into my hooves. "I`ve messed up... This is my entire fault!"
"Yes, it is, but I know how you can make this up to her. Win back her heart!"
"God, you make it seem so easy..."
"I`m a girl, and I know exactly what girls like and don`t like," She smiled.
"Ditzy wasn`t ordinary, alright...? You can`t truly think – you`ve went into the future, didn`t you?"
"Spoilers," She raised a hoof to her lips.
"River, please, whatever is going to happen shouldn`t be forced. She might need time to cope, you know?" I had slowed down but I was still crying. I wiped away a few tears.
"You`re a sorry sap of stallion, aren`t you," She whispered.
"Obviously," I muttered. "Please, just leave me to my thoughts. I need some time to think..."
"Whatever you say, Doc," And with that she left.
"It`s GONE… It`s all GONE!"
I shook her voice from my head and slowly got up off of my bed. I thought of what might make her know it wasn`t like that, that I wasn`t doing anything with River.
"A letter," I weakly smiled, sitting at the table with a pen and paper.
