Love Bytes!

5.

The Doctor loved bananas. And shoes – Converse, of course. And marmalade. Muffins too – any flavour, but banana muffins were the best.

He loved the TARDIS, her police box exterior, her spacious interior, that very cleverly existed in different dimensions, Oh, how clever she was! Good O' TARDIS, with her many corridors, each filled with rooms; kitchens, bedrooms, large wardrobe...libraries, swimming pools...although never a swimming pool in the library. He'd like that, a swimming pool in the library – he'd have to look into it. Oh yes, he loved the TARDIS, and he loved her purpose.

Time travel.

Time travel was marvellous! Going back, or forward, to any time or plant possible! Well, almost every planet. But that wasn't the point, the point was, he could. He had nothing else to do in his life any more! No pressing issues, except saving the Earth, and the universe every now and then. But even then, he could go anywhere he wanted! Back to the Ancient Egyptian times, or forward to the End of the Earth! Every day, any day. Time was his, and his alone! Well, Jack had his vortex manipulator, but that wasn't really time travel, not in the Doctor's opinion. It wasn't a ship. It wasn't the TARDIS.

He loved suits – pinstriped suits, and ties, and trench coats. He loved boy bands – they were his guilty pleasure, he loved Take That and a little bit of Wham. He loved Earth, it's towns, cities, and it's people! Human beings! Brilliant! And he loved chips! Chips, one of the best things humans ever invented!

But the thing he loved the most, more than the time travel, more than the marmalade, the chips, and, dare he say it, more than the bananas, was Rose.

Rose Marion Tyler. A 24 year old human girl, whom he had met at a shop, a normal, Earth shop, that she worked in; and he had found her, surrounded by Autons, and he took her hand, and they ran. They ran, from the danger, together. And then he left her, dropped her back on the council estate. But she came back. And she saved his life.

And so she left her normal life, and her normal boyfriend, to travel in time and space with him. The 24 year old girl, with the 900 year old time lord, who at that time was a big eared Northerner.

They travelled together, the human and the time lord, fighting slitheen, gelth, reapers, autons, the nestine conciousness, and the daleks. The daleks were the worst. They made him send her home, they were that dangerous. But she came back to him. Again. Although this time, she had looked into the heart of the TARDIS, which no one is meant to do. And she saved him, again, and the the world.

And then he saved her. He absorbed all the energy from Rose, and then regenerated, into his current form. It must have scared her, it must have scared her a lot. But she stayed. She nursed him, and helped him to defeat the sycorax. And then she came with him again, continued to travel with him, despite his changes. And it was brilliant.

She brightened up his day, filled his heart almost to breaking point with joy, and love. She was brilliant, beautiful, brave. She helped him save the world, the universe, and she helped him save himself.

She made him better.

And that is why he would always love her the most. Always.

Hello! I apologise for not having updated this in a while - I've been focussed on school, and on my detective story :) But it is, at last, the summer holidays, so updates should be more frequent :)
