Rating: PG
Status: Complete

The Doctor had spent most of his rainy day at the petrol station, taking apart the gas pumps-- well, he'd only taken apart just one, taking out small pieces, large pieces, and leaving it strewn everywhere. There was no gas of course, so there wasn't any reason to worry. At least, there had been no gas in the one he'd taken apart. He had managed to gather up a lot of small items, enough to make a portion of a sonic modulator, in the hopes he could resonate the glass and well.. shatter it. At least put a big crack in it. He'd meet back up with Ten sometime later tonight and present him with the portion of the modulator that he was working on. it wouldn't take them much longer to make a complete one, if they kept going at this pace.

He had thrown the parts all into a small backpack he'd found at the thrift store, for easy carrying. It was slung over his shoulder at the moment, as he ducked his way into the museum then headed for the door that led into the office that he, Rose, and the werewolf were all sharing. The same room he'd offered to Jack tonight, if he wanted it. It hadn't been any surprise that he'd been turned down. The handle was twisted and he stepped inside, eyebrows lifting and smile appearing as he saw Rose there. "Look at you! Right where you belong. A little wet, though. You're lucky one of us thinks about those things." Even as he said it, he was lowering the bag to the ground. The desk was gone from the office, pushed out of the room, along with the chair, to give them as much floor space as possible. Then he was crouching down and tugging out a t-shirt and some jeans, tossing them in her direction. "I thought about grabbing.. other things.." A bra and underwear, he meant, "But decided this would work just as well." He tugged out a towel and tossed it her way as well, to dry her bra and underwear, if she needed. The leather jacket was tugged off, it'd kept his torso dry, though his pants were a little wet. And the jacket was hung on a hook in the wall, once used for a picture.

"John Smith told you that?" His eyebrows went up and he looked aside at her with a more stern sort of look, before he turned his head and looked at the door. He'd told her. It was like giving Nancy Drew all of the clues and then hoping she wouldn't figure it out on her own! Hadn't they agreed that he was going to stay away from her? Hadn't they agreed that it was best for everyone involved if she stayed just his?

They had discussed this.

"Me, saving the world?" Finally, that cheeky smile returned. "Doesn't sound like me." That was almost a tease. "And while I was saving the world, you were off flirting with suited blokes?"

Rose turned pink at his comment about her flirting. "I don't flirt with everything that moves, you know," she scolded, resuming her place against his arm. It felt strange, laying her cheek against soft t-shirt fabric instead of the buttery leather of his jacket, which she now wore. It was actually quite comfortable. No wonder he wore it everywhere. Good luck getting it back, Doctor.

"Course you saved the world," she chided, a smile on her lips. "You're good at it. And I tagged along and looked cute so of course there was flirting. When I look so adorable and helpless with this great guy beating up the bad guys, who could resist me?" Now she was definitely teasing. Despite the occasional admiring looks she received, Rose's confidence wasn't on the same level as, say, Jack's. She knew she was cute, maybe even pretty. But she certainly didn't think of herself as the type who could attract everyone.

She considered his words, though. "Think he always wears the suit? He wasn't today, but that's cause it was wet." Oh, Rose. Why not just put a big sign over your head that says, 'I find that suited bloke sort of attractive, maybe'? It'd probably do you about as much good.

He listened with a smile as she went on about him being good at saving the world, and her tagging along with him, her looking helpless, him being a great guy and beating up the bad guys-- and of course, the comment about no one being able to resist her. That smile stayed easily.

Until she asked about John and the suit. It was then that the smile faded and Nine looked back at the door again. Couldn't you see what you were doing to him, Rose? The Doctor was tough, that was true.. but his heart right now, was frail. Too frail. And you had torn it from his chest months ago and stuck it in your pocket. And right now? You were smashing it with a hammer, over and over again.

"Rose," He began after a few seconds, "I.." You what, Doctor? You were going to have to fess up. Going to have to say something, if you wanted to keep her for yourself. You were going to have to do something, going to have to fight to keep her. If you wanted her, if you loved her, you had to tell her. And you had to do it now.

The Doctor just smiled some again. "He seems like the suit type."

He what? She hated when he did that. Started to turn all serious on her and then just...stopped. It was those moments that always made her wonder. And then he did something stupid, like calling humans stupid apes or get on to her for so much as talking to some interplanetary bloke or go rescue some beautiful female, and she stopped wondering. It wasn't like that between them. Maybe she was foolish to think it ever would be.

Rose released a slow breath, placing her hand on his arm. "When we get out of here? And we're so getting out of here. You have to take me some place completely brilliant to make up for all this nonsense." And for the fact that her head constantly felt like it was spinning here. And the fact that she always felt like something was going over her head. And she really, really hated it. "Isn't there some planet with hot springs and cheap facials? Why haven't you taken me to a spa-having planet yet? I think it's about time."

The hand that lay on his arm moved around to hold it close, clinging him to her. Things were so messed up right now.

"When you leave here, you'll be leaving with Jack, not me." Jack or John, that was, but the Doctor didn't want to mention John, lest she go on about how cute his hair was, or how nice his tie was, or.. He let out a slow breath and shifted his legs, pulling them in as he prepared to stand.

Could you hear that noise, Rose? That was your Doctor's heart breaking.

"No complaints. No questions. You just have to do what I tell you, it's important. Do you understand that?" He turned his head to finally look at her, but before she could question it, he explained himself.. sort of. "I'm from your future, Rose Tyler. Not long. Just hours. But it's long enough. You've got to go back to where you belong, and I've got to go back to where I belong, and we can't go together." Well, if that didn't sound ominous, nothing did.

No. No, no, no. Did he realize what he was doing? He was confirming her worst fears. "What are you talking about?" she asked, horror seeping from her tone. "You wouldn't..." He'd leave her. He would honestly leave her. Remy had been right. Somehow, John had missed his mark. It couldn't have been the Doctor she'd saved the world with because he was going to hand her over. In fact, he made it sound like he never wanted her around again.

"Jack's from after my time, too," she reminded him. Rose wasn't stupid, boys, she'd figured that much out. The moment Jenny had mentioned the TARDIS had come from a point in time where it hadn't been sitting outside the Powell Estate, she'd figured out that she and her friends could've been taken from entirely different points. "So I suppose this means I won't be returning with him, either, doesn't it? I'm going to be alone."

"No, you're not going to be alone." That was said more firmly. "You're going to be with me. You're going to be with me for a long time, Rose. But not this version of me. You'll upgrade." That word came with a twisting sort of smile, it was almost bitter, but not quite. There was something else behind it. Regret, maybe? Finally, the Doctor was pushing to stand. "I only take the best.. and you should only travel with the best. And you will. You're going to see great things, amazing things. I promise. And I'll take you across the galaxy and keep you with me, I won't ever leave you behind." His hands ached to push into jacket pockets, but there were none to be had.

"Not ever." He could promise her that, because he knew he lost her another way. He knew there was nothing he could do. Spoilers, Doctor.. but he knew this place existed outside of time. And it had been so very long since he'd felt. And he wanted to feel. He wanted to feel for Rose. He wanted to tell her everything he felt, everything he wanted to feel.

"Have you seen your wolf? He's gone missing, has he?" But he didn't.
