The Stuff Of Legend

[preserved_ginger]

Title: The Stuff of Legend
Rating: PG
Character(s): Rose. The Doctor.
Pairing(s): Ten/Rose
Spoilers: If you know about Doomsday, you're golden.
Setting: Our universe, post-reunion.
A/N: This is unbeta-ed, so any and all mistakes are mine. The title comes from the last words the Doctor speaks in the episode The Satan Pit.
Disclaimer: I'm not the BBC.
Dedication: For lostwolfchats
Summary: He's the Doctor, she's Rose.

She's back, the woman he's so deeply in love with it scares him. He cannot let her out of his sight, terrified that if he does he'll lose her again. He can't get her back just to lose her again so soon ...

(He's the Doctor, she's Rose; together, they're the stuff of legend. Oh, how he's missed this; missed her.)

He knows he'll lose her, one day. It's inevitable. But he's buried the knowledge beneath a determination to love her, with all he has, for as long as he can.

He's been given a second chance.

He'll not waste it.

I'm not normally a drabble person (I like longer stuff), but I read this and could honestly imagine the Doctor thinking of it. Nice work! :-)

I just want him to get the chance, yeah? That's surely not too much to ask.

Lets hope this is what he really decides to do.

At the minute, I think I'd settle for him getting the chance to do it.

Wonderful, especially remembering his words in TCI about second chances.

Wonderful

Thanks :)

Yes; but for Rose that "no second chances" never did hold true, did it?

After everything he's been through in S3 I can so see this happening! :D

Thanks for sharing!

All of us, from the Doctor down, need the closure.
