A/N

Hello Readers! I'm back! I'm so sorry for not posting last week. I was on an Easter camp and when I got back I though it would just be easier to post as usual on Sunday and not in the middle of the week. I hope that was okay and this makes up for for missing last week. I'll try and be as regular as I can with my posts and try my best not to skip weeks.

Can I just say... WE GOT TO 1,000 VIEWS! WOOHOO! I just wanted to thank you guys so much for reading my story and getting me to 1,000 views so early in to the story. Seriously. I'm blown away. I could never have asked for 1,000 views so early on. Just. Thank you.

Also I realised that it's probably not very clear what Lucy looks like. My fault. Bad me. She has long wavy brown hair that she keeps down and has pale blue eyes. She has quite soft features and is around 5 foot 5. So far she's worn long black leggings, a knit jumper and high top converse. That's just a brief description of her, but hopefully that helped you guys get a better understanding of her appearance.

This chapter isn't in the original series. I always wondered where they all went that night in School Reunion as it was never said. They didn't go back to the Tardis (they came from outside the school and arrived in Sarah Jane's car in the morning) so I guessed they went back to Sarah Janes house for the night. So this chapter is just about what I think would have happened. It's a little bit short than usual and I am trying to make my chapters longer, but I thought this should just be a stand alone chapter. It's a pretty big one in my mind event wise.

I do have another chapter to post but my internet is being a royal pain! I'm hoping I can get it up tonight, but if not it will definitely be tomorrow. Aggghhhh I feel so bbbaaaaadddddd. You guys have been waiting so long for an update and then as soon as I go to post, my internet breaks. Curse you internet gods! I'm hoping this chapter will go up at least... All I can do is hope. Just know that I'm trying as hard as I can to get these chapters up! I will find some Wifi even if that means venturing outside of the house...

Anyway, I really hope you guys like this chapter!

Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor Who, only my oc's and ideas/plot.

Sarah Jane's house was big. 3 whole gigantic stories. But it only had 4 bedrooms. If Lucy hadn't been there it would have been fine, but because she was, there were 5 people, and only 4 rooms. Upon discovering this, the Doctor immediately volunteered himself for the couch.

So, after briefly talking about what they would do tomorrow, Rose, Mickey, Sarah Jane and Lucy each went up to their respective bedrooms to get some sleep. Sarah Jane offered them all some pajamas to sleep in which they gladly took.

Now, Lucy was lying in a twin bed, trying to get to sleep.

No matter what she did, Lucy's mind just didn't want to rest. She tossed and turned until finally she gave up and rolled onto her back.

Lucy stared up at the ceiling and sighed.

No sleep for me then.

Lucy then tried to think back to the last time she had slept and realised she hadn't since she'd met the Doctor.

She frowned in confusion, thinking that it had surely been more than a day that she'd been awake, and wondered why she didn't seem tired.

Lucy was drawn from her thoughts though when she realised that the sore feeling in her chest was back. She sat up and leaned back against the headboard if the twin bed.

Lucy winced as she rubbed her chest and thought, "Why wouldn't it just go away?"

It was a strange sort of pain. It kind of felt like when you pressed on a bruise, and was throbbing oddly.

Lucy was drawn out of her thoughts when she heard the door slowly creak open. She looked up quickly and tensed, but relaxed when she saw the Doctor poke his head in.

"Oh! Sorry, I just wanted to check and see that you were alright," he whispered as he opened the door further and stepped into the room.

"I'm fine," Lucy said as she slowly moved her hand away from her chest, "Just can't sleep is all,"

The Doctor walked over to the bed in the middle of the room and gestured to the bed before asking, "May I?"

Lucy nodded as she gave a light smile and folded her legs under the covers. The Doctor sat down on the edge of the bed, facing her and smiled.

"So," The Doctor said awkwardly.

"So," Lucy repeated with an awkward smile as she tapped her fingers. She could still feel the ache in her chest. Normally it had faded by now, only ever lasting for a moment.

"When is this for you?" The Doctor asked after a moment had passed.

Lucy frowned in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"In relation to me," he clarified, "How long have you been travelling with me?"

"Well," Lucy started before finishing slowly, "I've kind of only met this you once before…"

"Oh," the Doctor said, looking slightly disappointed for a second before he masked his face with a smile, "Better make a good impression then!"

Lucy have a small laugh before wincing slightly as the ache flared up at her laugh.

The Doctor's expression immediately morphed into one of worry and asked quickly, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?" as he looked over her.

Lucy looked down at her lap as she said, "It's fine. It's nothing really…"

The Doctor gave her a meaningful look before saying, "Lucy,"

Lucy sighed before explaining, "It's my chest," she raised a hand to indicate the spot, "It's been aching for a while now and I don't know why…"

"Let me have a look," the Doctor said as he pulled out a stethoscope from his jacket. He put the earpieces in his ears and held onto lucy's shoulder gently with one hand. He placed the end of the stethoscope on the left side of her chest and listened for a while before he moved it over the right side and did the same thing.

Lucy frowned as he moved it to the right side of her chest. What was he doing? Her heart's on the left side of her chest..

He nodded to himself before he removed the stethoscope and put it back in his pocket.

"Both working," he said with a smile.

Lucy was about to smile back when she registered what he had actually said.

Both?

"What?" Lucy asked confused.

"I said, both working," he repeated, not getting why she was so confused.

"What do you mean both working?" She asked, suddenly feeling very nervous.

"Both your hearts," he clarified, "They're working fine. Why are you acting so…" he trailed off when he saw Lucy's shocked face.

"Oh," he said quietly.

Lucy's eyes grew wide as she stared at the Doctor.

What did he mean two hearts? She only had one. Humans only had one heart. How could she have two hearts if she was human?

All this went through her mind in a split second as she stared back at the Doctor.

Lucy took a deep breath and let it out slowly, before she asked very slowly, "Doctor. What do you mean two hearts?"

The Doctor paused slightly before he answered just as slowly, "Okay, these next words might come as a bit of a shock."

The Doctor paused and let out a sigh.

"Lucy. You're a Time Lady."

Lucy's eyes grew wide and her mouth dropped open.

She wasn't a Time Lady. That was impossible! How could she be a Time Lady? She was Human. How could she be anything different?

The Doctor asked her if she was alright but she barely heard him. She was reeling and trying to process this impossibility. She didn't even notice the Doctor take out his stethoscope again until he put a hand on her shoulder and shook her out of her daze.

"Do you want to listen?" he asked slowly.

She nodded slowly after a moment's hesitation. He handed her the listening end for her to put in her ears.

After she had done so, he raised the metal end to the left side of her chest like he did before. She heard her heart beating like normal. Then he moved the end to the right side of her chest.

Lucy gasped as she heard another heartbeat, just as strong as the first, coming from the right side of her chest.

She could feel the Doctor about to move the stethoscope away, but she reached up and held it there. She wanted to listen to the second heartbeat for a little longer. To convince herself that this was actually happening.

After a moment longer, Lucy released the Doctor's hand and let him take the stethoscope out of her ears.

"I'm a Time Lady," Lucy said shocked after a moment of stunned silence.

The Doctor smiled gently at her before saying sadly after a moment, "The last Time Lady."

Lucy looked up at him and saw the look of sadness on his face. Before she knew what she was doing, Lucy had reached up and enveloped him in a hug.

It took a moment for the Doctor to react, before he slowly hugged her back.

"I'm sorry," Lucy whispered into the Doctor's neck.

The Doctor hugged her harder as let himself fall into grief for his lost race.

After a while longer, the Doctor slowly let go of Lucy and moved back. He looked up and saw her quickly wipe a tear from her eye as she bowed her head.

He gently lifted her chin to see her eyes filled with tears.

"Hey, it's okay," The Doctor said as Lucy let out a sob.

He pulled her back in for another hug and rested his chin on her head. He stroked her head as he held her gently sobbing figure.

She cried for her lost race. For the people she never met. For the home she never knew.

The Doctor pulled back and asked, "Why don't we do downstairs and I'll make you a nice cup of tea, hmm?"

Lucy nodded silently and they both got up.

On their way out of the room, Lucy picked up a blanket that was lying on the end of the bed and wrapped it around herself. The Doctor wrapped an arm around Lucy's shoulders as they made their way down stairs.

The Doctor Left Lucy on the couch for a moment, and when he returned, he held two cups of tea in his hands.

"There we go," he said as he settled in next to her and gave Lucy her tea.

Lucy cupped it in her hands as she huddled up on the couch, still wrapped in the blanket.

"Can I ask you something Doctor?" Lucy said as she looked down at her cup.

"Anything," he responded as looked down at her.

"Can you tell me about them? The Time Lords. Our Home…"

The Doctor smiled lightly as she looked up at him with sadness and curiosity.

"Of course," the Doctor replied warmly.

Lucy broke out into a grin and turned so she was facing the Doctor more. She looked up at him expectantly, waiting for him to tell her about the home she never knew.

"Our home, Gallifrey, lay in the constellation of Kasterborous. The sky was a bright burnt orange, and every day, the two suns would rise in the east and make the mountains shine in the light. The fields and plains were covered in soft red grass, that I used to run through as a child. My favourite thing about our planet though, were the trees. The leaves on the trees were silver, and when the wind blew through them it sounded like a song…."

Lucy closed her eyes as she listened in awe and imagined the sights the Doctor was describing.

They stayed there all night. The Doctor talking and Lucy listening to his wonderful stories of their lost people.
