The Doctor sat there for ages wondering whether or not he should go and see rose but decided in the end that he couldn't face he didn't like ending and if he went to see he for one last time it would break him inside for evermore. The doctor decided to leave earth for a little and get his head around what had happened. What a mistake that was. The doctor ended up putting it off putting off going back to say one last goodbye to rose. Years in fact. One day he met a man that told him he shouldn't have put it off and to go back and say one final goodbye.
"doctor where have you been?" Jackie asked
"I had to gather my thoughts" the doctor replied
She looked into the doctors eyes
"you look older your eyes they look older hows that? how long have you been gathering your thoughts?" asked Jackie
The doctor stood there for a little a wondering what to say
"ye yes I have been gone quite a while but I'm back now" said the doctor
"Well we better get a move on as it's nearly half two" Jackie explained
They traveled to the funeral in a black car just behind the Hurst the whole way there the doctor sat there thinking of what to say and how to say it. Not a single word was said the whole journey 20 minutes later they arrived at the church. The doctor looked out the window at all the people going into the church. Jackie and the doctor got out of the car and walked up to the church.
"I can't do this I just can't" said the doctor with a sad look on his face
"Doctor you can't keep putting it if there comes a days in everyone's life when you have you say goodbye to the ones you love I know it hurts but it's got to be done it's just part of life" Jackie explained to the doctor
"but I've done it so many times I have to watch someone I I liked died while I live on it's not fair that's the burden of a timelord" said the doctor
"I know it's not but you can at least say a proper goodbye sometimes goodbye though it hurts in your heart is the only way for destiny though it is the hardest thing to do it's the right thing to do" said Jackie as she hugged the doctor
"I know and rose wouldn't want it like this she wanted me to say goodbye" said the doctor as he and Jackie slowly walked into the church and sat next to Mickey and Pete
"What are you wearing? Doctor it's meant to be black" Mickey asked
"Rose loved me in this suit and that the way she would have wanted it so don't tell me what I can and can't wear" the doctor yelled as he sat down
As the service started the doctor felt like getting up and running away but remember this it's not what rose would have wanted for the doctor to keep running so decided to stay.
"We are gathered here today to celebrate the life of Rose Tyler who was cruelly taken from us at only 20 years only" said the vicar his beginning speech went on for a little while
The doctor sat there blankly staring into space thinking of all the great time he had had this rose over the time she had traveled with him they were some of the happiest days of his life.
"Now the doctor the one rose loved the most will say a few words" said the vicar
The doctor stared blankly for a moment before getting up
