Okay. This is not exactly a chapter...Well, read on, and you will get what I mean.

Peter Alan Tyler, my dad. The most wonderful man in the world. Born 15th September 1954. And died on the 7th of November 1987. And today, I'm going to see him die for the third time.

"So I was thinking...could we?" Even doing it for the second time, she still found it hard to ask. What if his mind changed from their original timeline? He did not exactly trust her all that much. Why would he do her this favour? Or maybe...?

"Could we go and see my dad, when he was still alive?" Rose looked into the Doctor's eyes.

"Where's this come from all of a sudden?" the Doctor asked.

"I don't want him to die alone," Rose said in a faint voice, turning her gaze down on the grating. "I want him to kno-..." Rose suppressed the sob. "I want him to know that he was a hero to me..." She looked up with a sad smile.

"You don't even know him," the Doctor said in a steady voice while looking at Rose.

"I don't need to. He was my dad. That's all that matters... Can't we?" She looked at him with pleading eyes.

"I can do anything. But I'm more worried about you." He looked at her in concern. There was no way he could resist those eyes. Not that he would admit it to her. Or anyone.

"I wanna see him." Rose formed a faint smile. "Can we see their wedding first, though?" She bit her lips nervously.

"Your wish is my command." He grinned at her and after pressing a few switches, with a familiar bump they landed.

Both Jackie and Peter Tylers looked so lovingly together at their wedding.

"I, Peter Alan Tyler, take you, Jacqueline Susanne." And as the last time, he failed to say her name.

.

.

"Suzette." He tried again.

.

.

"Anita?" Peter looked ablush.

"Oh, just carry on." Her mother gave up on hearing her name. It made Rose chuckle at the sight. They were so embarrassing to watch, but at the same time one couldn't keep their eyes off of them.

In the parallel world, Rose had Pete with them, but as much as he was so similar to her dad, as she remembered him, he was still not him. Her dad was just a simple man, who not really achieved anything big in his life, but was the most courageous man Rose had ever known. The Doctor and Mickey were both travellers, they were used to the danger. But this one man - her dad, was just an ordinary man, who gave up his life to save the world.

And he would never even get to know that.

Then it was time for their second trip. The trip to the place where her dad died.

Rose watched as the TARDIS steadily pulsated in front of her eyes, until it finally came to a stop. Announcing of their arrival.

Once outside, Rose found herself again in the same place - so full of life, on such an ordinary day, without anyone knowing of the sorrows others would be experiencing at this very day.

"I always thought it would be all sort of grim and stormy," Rose said in a soft voice, reminiscing. "But it's just an ordinary day." she smiled sadly in the distance.

"The past is another country," he announced with a gentle voice. "You sure about this?" he asked her firmly.

"Yeah." She turned to face him with a faint smile. She had to do it. For him, for her dad.

They went towards the Jordan Road, and stood there, patiently waiting for the man to greet his fate.

"He was late." Rose began.

"He'd been to get a wedding present, the vase...Mum always said, "That stupid vase." Rose chuckled in nostalgia.

"He got out of his car." They saw Peter arrive in his car and park it. He picked the vase out of his car and started to get out of it.

"And crossed the road." Rose felt her heart tighten, and she must have made a painful expression, because at the same time she felt the Doctor take her hand into his and squeeze it slightly in comforting gesture.

Another car made its way from the corner of the building. It was steadily moving towards Peter Tyler, who was getting out of his car, facing away from the upcoming danger, totally unaware of the consequences.

And in a flash of a moment, when he turned around, he froze at the sight. The car hit him and he fell on the ground.

Rose turned her face from the view, burying her head in one of the Doctor's shoulders.

It still hurt.

When she looked back at the road, she saw the slight movement her dad still tried to make. Gasping for life, which was steadily fading away.

"Go to him. Quick," the Doctor whispered softly.

Rose turned to face the Doctor for one last moment before she ran towards her dad's body. She reached him in seconds time and fell on her knees while picking him up in her arms.

Peter's life was too faint for him to properly recognise the situation and the stranger holding him in her arms, rocking him slightly with tears in her eyes.

"You were a wonderful man," Rose said softly through her sobs, while holding his hand tightly in her grasp, letting him know that he was not alone in this.

"And your daughter is gonna be very very proud of you...Remember that, alright?" She smiled fondly at the man who was just looking at the young woman with surprise and gratitude at the same time.

And then the life faded away.

Just like that. In a split of a second he was gone. Her wonderful dad died today for the third time.

It was time to go.

She placed his head gently on the cold cement and after taking a few breaths, kissed his forehead tenderly. Saying one last goodbye.

With that, she stood up. Leaving her dad laying there on the ground. She slowly lifted her head up and saw her Doctor's understanding gaze.

He moved towards her and picked her hand up, placing it into his. He started walking them slowly away from Peter Tyler's body, towards the TARDIS, never letting go of her hand.

And neither of them said a thing until they reached her. It was a silent understanding between the two of them.

And with the doors opened, they gone inside - to their now new home.

to be continued...

A/N: So then, yeh, I didn't make it happen because even back then, Rose said that if she had only realised she would not have done that. And now she was someone, who had already witnessed it and had so much more experience, and she would never try to turn her Doctor on the Reapers.

So, I cut only the scene where she said her dad one last goodbye. Because in this timeline, her dad still didn't have that one person, who could have held his hand while he was dying.

Anyway, thank you for your reviews and favs and follows...and everything. You are brilliant people, just know that. =}
