They were alone in the console room. "Rose should we wake the others up?' John said looking down the hallway that led to the guest rooms.
"No, I don't want to get anyone's hopes up. Can you leave the brake off so that they don't wake up from the sound?"
"But Rose that takes all of the fun out of it." He said as he put in the time and place she had given him. It landed and Rose turned back to John.
"No matter what happens out there Doctor, I love you. I love you more than I could ever love anyone else. Don't forget that."
John grabbed Rose around the waist and pulled her to him. "I will never forget that. To the day I die Rose Tyler," he kissed her and then wrapped her in a large embrace. "Are you ready?" She nodded and he let go of her. "Do you want me to go with you?"
"No, just don't let me out of your sight." She opened the door to the Tardis and stepped out onto the grass.
She noticed for the first time that she had forgotten shoes, but she didn't care at that moment.
She saw him sitting there. He sat on the grass in front of her by himself. His hair blew in the wind as he just stared at the city in front of him.
It reminded him of so much. New York. He missed them. He missed all of them. He laid down in the grass and looked up at the sky.
The smell was still same as it had been when he had first shown her this city; the apple grass still smelled identical. It should've smelled the same because it was the same day and the same grass. He and Rose were in the hospital right now saving lives, while he just sat around and sulked.
What he would give to see her one more time. He sat back up and placed his face in his hands and took a deep breath.
She walked down to him silently. Nearly a step away from the man see could feel that this was him. Amy was right his chin was much bigger. Finally she decided she had to say something.
"You don't mind if I sit here do you?" She said when she plopped down on the ground next to him.
"Nah it's a free world isn't it?" He looked up from his hands at the city, "it's beautiful isn't it?" Not realizing who was next to him, or even bothering to look.
"It's one of my favorites. But it reminds me too much of cats for some reason." The Doctor laughed, it had been so long since he had done that.
"I'm the Doct−," he started his hand out reached to shake whoever's hand he was talking to.
"The Doctor I know." He couldn't move. Rose Tyler was sitting next to him. She was sitting next to him and had the same smile she used to have, where her tongue poked out through her teeth.
"Rose?" He said and then quickly stood up, his eyes never leaving her.
"Hello." She said standing up next to him her grin growing as she dusted her hands off on her jeans.
"What, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be saving the hospital from evil cats?"
"Nah already did that."
"Then…are you, are you really here?"
"Do you know how long it took me to find you? Not only did I have to cross from an alternate world but I had to travel all over this one in search of you."
"Rose Tyler?"
"The one and only. Well, probably not the only person with that name but the one and only bad wolf." Suddenly without another word he hugged her.
"Oh Rose Tyler I've missed you so much." She had started to cry, but she was happy this time and not sad.
"I've missed you too Doctor." They stood there hugging for several minutes before John decided to go and say hello.
When he was walking down the hill the Doctor turned and smiled at him. "Oh, hello handsome! Look at you, you're ageing. Looking a bit more gray up top."
John's eyes widened as looked at Rose who only smiled as shook her head no. John tried his best to not look jealous of the Doctor but he felt like he was failing miserably.
"So you built the new Tardis! I like it. You made it a police box too?" they looked back at the small blue box.
"It didn't seem right to make it anything else." John said shoving his hands into his pockets and swaying back and forth on his feet.
"So what do you think of the bowtie?" The Doctor asked John.
"Well…bowties are cool."
"Exactly! You know I kept on telling that to Amelia, but she would never listen."
"Oh my gosh!" Rose started to run up the hill back towards the Tardis.
"ROSE where are you going?" Both men yelled in unison.
"To get the Ponds!"
