Tears streamed down my face as I pounded the TARDIS door. "Open the door this instant! Take me back! Take me back right now! JOHN!"

I knew I didn't matter, because we were already in space. It was always worth a shot. I slid to the floor with my face pressed against the door. I was terrified. I was being kidnapped. And all I wanted was John, my was soon to be husband.

Then I remembered the reason why I was in the TARDIS. My tears stopped flowing and I stood up with my fists clenched. "Why did you do this?" I asked in a flat tone, still facing the door. That should have been his first warning.

"Because I want you. I love you, Rose. It took me this long to finally be able to say it. I always had. You loved me too, remember? You said it to me first, all those years ago back on the beach. I am very sorry it took this long for me to say it. I need you. I need my Rose. Stay with me. I need you more than that thing-". I cut him off by spinning around followed by a roundhouse kick to the chest. I put enough force into it to cause him to fly back and hit the railing.

He looked at me dumbfounded. To which I glared at him saying, "Don't you ever refer to John as a thing. Because that thing happens to be the man that I love. I moved on years ago Doctor. It has been five years since the Crucible. I don't love you anymore. I gave you several chances, and you blew it every single time. Oh, I waited a good two years, don't get me wrong. But after awhile, one gets tired of waiting for that someone who you dreamed about even after they left. John waited for me every step of the way. He understood. He took action when it was appropriate. Certainly you always did back in the day, but that was always when there was someone to save. And you never took action with me. It's too late for you Doctor. I can't change my heart twice. This is the way it is. Now let me go."

He grabbed the railing and winced as he slowly stood up clutching his chest with his free hand. "You will not leave. I forbid it. Just give me another chance. I will make things right again. Please, Rose." His eyes were full of emotion.

I didn't believe him. "Rule number one. The Doctor lies. Remember? Why should I believe you? You were the one that didn't come after me. You left me behind. Not once, but twice. I would ask you to tell me the truth, but you would probably just make another lie."

He looked at me with sad longing and regret. "I am so sorry." He snapped his fingers and suddenly I was in my old room in the TARDIS.

That's a new trick. I thought as I opened the door. It opened alright. It opened to reveal bars, like a prison door. This can't be happening. When The Doctor arrived several moments later on the other side, I narrowed my eyes. "This makes me trust you even less, just letting you know." I closed the door, walked glumly to the bed, took a deep breath and fell asleep with tears streaming down my face.
