Thank you for the reviews. They make my day. :) I don't have any intention to stop this story. I hate it when stories are abandoned, doomed to be WIP forever. I won't do that to you. Now, to answer the question of what Jane is going to do now, read on.

Donna is eventually able to pull the Doctor aside. Meta speaks with them as well. I can tell by the looks on their faces that they are talking about taking Donna home. Rose has dragged me into a hug.

"Thank you."

"Of course Rose."

"If there's ever anything I can do for you, you know I'm always here right?"

I smile. "I know. You have been. Thank you."

We hug again. "Sorry but I need to go talk with those three."

"Yeah of course. I'm gonna go see if I can find my old room."

So Rose leaves the console room and I head to the trio of doctors.

Donna is being earnest. "We all know I can't stay. We know that. But don't go thinking that you're done with me. You will visit. Take me on a trip every Christmas. You know I hate Christmas so you're going to help me skip it or at least make it tolerable."

"I couldn't get away from you if I tried Donna."

"You bet your arse spaceman."

She turns to Meta. "And you dumbo, are gonna come stay with me a bit. Grandad would love to have ya anyway."

I can tell Meta is a bit reluctant with that arrangement but he agrees anyway.

"Got any room for me too?"

The Doctor turns to me. "You're not staying? I know Rose would want you to travel with us."

"Oh don't worry, I will definitely be coming along. Just not yet. You and Rose have...stuff to talk about. I'd just be in the way. But you will be coming back. I want to see it all. Every star. Well, not every star but you get the point."

I poke him in the chest to make sure he understands the whole coming back for me later thing.

"So here's what I think. Meta, Donna and I will stay here on Earth while you and Rose take as long as you need. You come get me in a couple of months. If Meta wants to come, he can join us. But first, I need to make a stop. So we'll drop off these two and then you're taking me for one quick trip before bringing me back."

Donna replies loudly. "Sounds like a plan. Hop to it spaceman! I need to check on Grandad."

The two Doctors fly the TARDIS while Donna and I hang on.

"You lot aren't any better together than you were alone!"

That earns me two protests. "Oi!"

I just smile sweetly as Donna lays into them for the same reason. I've decided that no matter what the situation, I always want Donna Noble on my side. She makes fantastic arguments. This is the moment Rose walks back in.

"Wot are ya all yelling about?"

"The Doctors driving skills, or rather the lack there of."

"Oi!"

"I'm going out." With that, Donna proudly walks out of TARDIS.

"Don't worry. I love the way you drive." Rose kisses the Doctor on the cheek and the look on his face is making me sick. Okay, they were cute on tellie. This is sickening. Did they always look at each other like that? Okay, it's still adorable, but I don't want to live with them right now. Best hurry things along. Meta is trying to look indifferent, but failing miserably. I grab his arm and drag him to the doors.

"Go keep Donna out of trouble. I'll be back in an hour."

"With his driving skills?" He grins at his joke. If only it wasn't also serious.

"One hour. Trust me. I am NOT letting him miss. One hour."

He's shaking his head at me as I close the door and turn to find the love birds still making goo-goo eyes at each other. One important trip and they can do what they want, but for now? They need to snap out of it.

"Oi! Love birds! I have an errand to run. You can play reunion kissy kissy later."

Rose raises her eyebrow at me. "Kissy kissy?"

I wince. "Yeah. Remind me not to say that again."

I switch gears. "Right! Doctor! Off to the library."

"What?"

"You hear me. Take me to the library. I need to be there like fifteen minutes before your younger selves left."

"I can't cross my own timeline."

His glare for that is piercing and I don't want to put up with it. "Don't turn the oncoming storm on me. I can do it just as good as you can. Ask Rose."

He turns a surprised look toward her. "She can. I've seen her do it."

"Now, I know you can cross your timeline. So you won't. I just need you to drive me there. You don't even have to leave the TARDIS. You and Rose stay here, and go do what I need to do."

"And what might that be?"

"If you must know, I'm picking up Donna's husband. She deserves a happy ending."

He looks very confused. "Husband?"

"Yeah. Lee. When her brain was in the computer she told you she was married. You two couldn't find him and assumed that she made up the perfect man, except he actually does exist. If you won't go there for me at least go there for her. She's practically your sister."

He purses his lips and I know I've won. No one says a word as he takes us into the vortex. No one says a word as he lands. He gestures to the door. I know Rose won't let him leave without me, and I know he wouldn't dare land in the wrong place. So I walk out and find myself in the library.

A chill runs through me. The silence is deafening. But it's only a moment before people start appearing. I run through the halls of the library until I find the gift shop. I see the Doctor and Donna talking. They're looking left and right and I know they won't find who they're looking for.

I lean against a section of the computer and find myself electrocuted. There's a burn spot on my arm but it isn't bad. I notice the Doctor and Donna turn to leave and I rush forward to get to the handsome tall man whom Donna lived inside the computer. Lee McAvoy. I grab his arm and yank him from the teleport just in time.

"W-w-who are y-you?"

I smile at him reassuringly. "I'm a friend of Donna's. I think of best let her explain all the details but for now all I need to know is if you love her."

He answers dogmatically, without a hint of a stutter. "Yes." If that simple word doesn't convince me, the honest look on his face does.

"Great. All right then. I'll take you Donna. This way. I drag him toward the TARDIS that I had left barely fifteen minutes ago. This trip was easier than I thought it would be.

I push open the door and gesture inside. He disappears into it before coming out again to examine the outside. He heads back in and I'm about to follow when a flicker of an image distracts my attention. I move toward the out of focus hologram until it becomes more solid to reveal River Song.

"Hello Sweetie."

She seems to know me. River knows me? Oh, this is going to be fun. "Hello Melody darling."

She smiles and shakes her head. "Doesn't matter how young you get to me, you always know me. Always."

"Careful darling. Spoilers."

She laughs the only way River can. It's a warm laugh. "I knew you'd come."

I shrug. "Yeah well..." I don't know what to say to that. I am curious to what her part will be now. It can't be the Doctor's wife. Not with Rose in the picture.

So I ask her. "So Melody, mind giving me a heads up? What part you're going to play in all of this?"

She chuckles and gives me a smirk. "Oh sweetie. You know better than anyone why I can't."

"Oh you can."

"Alright, let's go with shouldn't then."

I have to give her that one. "Yeah you're probably right. The Doctor would have your head."

"And you'd have his. You never would let him get away with anything."

"Careful Darling."

"I know, I know. Spoilers."

"Here's a question, did I teach you that word or did you teach me?"

"I suppose it depends on how you look at it doesn't it? It just goes round and round."

"Still, it's be nice to know."

"Oh Ryder, where's the fun in that?"

We laugh but quickly become sober again. She looks longingly at the TARDIS and looks at me with a bit of saddens.

"Give my love to all of them."

I'm not sure who all them are to her but I agree anyway. "Of course." I know she doesn't like goodbyes so I don't say it. "I'll catch you later."

I turn to go back to the TARDIS when she stops me. "Ryder?"

I turn and look at her. "Yeah?"

I don't much like the look she's giving me as she replies. "Just remember, every song must come to an end."

Every song ends? Is she saying that in reference to herself? If she forgiving me for not finding a way to save her? Because she can't be referring to end of the tenth Doctor. Can she? It won't happen that way now. It won't. Rose is here. That changes everything. Doesn't it? I don't want to leave her with no more words and I need to leave with my thoughts so I reply to her in a quiet voice.

"I know."

It's a simple statement. And all too true. I do know. I know too much, and yet not nearly enough.

I don't have time to dwell on these thoughts. I enter the TARDIS and we are immediately off. Rose and I check multiple times that we landed when and where I wanted to. Lee and I say our goodbyes and I send them on their way. With instructions to come get me in a couple months. Now it's time to reintroduce Lee and Donna, and then Meta and I need to figure out what to do next.
