13th Doctor x Reader: Lost

Chapter 17: Safe

You shakily nod your head. You are trembling, but not from the contact. It's who is making the contact that is scaring you. How is your body not reacting? Your mind is screaming. She nearly killed the entire human race, yet you aren't scared of her. You aren't scared of Missy.

"You alright dear?" She asks gently. What the hell is going on? You nod slowly. You feel your cheeks get warm. Why are you reacting like this?

You taking cautious steps away from her, very confused on what she is doing here.

"Don't you dare." She says warningly. You realize you had been stepping closer to the railing until you're flatly pressed against it.

"W-what are you doing here?" You ask. Your mind is taking over your body, causing you to ball up as cars drive past.

She comes over and sits right next to you.

"Well I'm not going to let the Doctor just ditch you again!" She says as if it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"Why? I thought you..." You trail off, not really wanting to finish that sentence.

"You heard me! I'm trying out this whole guud thing," she throws her hands up in the air as if it were the worst thing in the world. Your shoulders slightly brush past each other, and you feel a little reminder that you are safe.

She stands up, and you give her a confused look.

"Well, are you coming or not?" She asks, holding out a hand.

"I don't think so." You mumble, pretty sure she couldn't hear you. But somehow she does.

"Why not?"

"She won't let me." You sigh.

"If she wants me to be guud she doesn't really have a choice." She puts her hands on her hips, and you notice she's holding an umbrella. "Come on!" She doesn't really give you a choice.

You sigh, very reluctantly standing up, using the railing as support rather than taking her hand, which gets you a confused look. You walk next to Missy, a few feet apart. You walk in an awkward yet comfortable silence, the cars zooming past next to the walkway.

You suddenly start to feel very dizzy. You hadn't eaten in quite a few hours, and you just put your body through a lot more than normal. You're afraid of what was coming next. Missy couldn't find out, she certainly wouldn't let you travel then!

Unaware of what was going on, you stumble right into her! She chuckles lightly, not completely aware of what was happening. You quickly steady yourself, taking a few steps away. You bring your hands up to your chest, rubbing them anxiously. This does catch her attention.

"Everything alright?" Her Scottish accent comes through.

"Just... tired..." You half lie. You are tired, unbelievably tired.

You walk a few more minutes, the cemetery coming into view when you trip over your own feet. Your head spins and you brace yourself for impact when strong arms catch you at your waist. You groan before closing your eyes at the hazy world.

"No, no. Keep your eyes open dear." You hear a voice whisper. Reluctantly you squint and find yourself being held up. "Doctor!" She calls in a high-pitched voice.

You hear footsteps running and see a blurry person next to you.

"Oh y/n..." You hear her sigh worriedly.

"What? I'm fiiiine." You groan, trying to pull out of Missy's grasp.

"Oh no you don't." She says. Your vision slowly clears and you see the Doctor give Missy a confused look. "What?" She asks, annoyed.

"She's not panicking." The Doctor sounds confused.

"Why would she?"

"Never mind." The Doctor sighs, scanning you with her sonic which earns an eye roll from Missy. "What?"

"You could just ask her." Missy says sarcastically.

"Oh no no no." She looks at her sonic, panicking.

You suddenly feel your legs go out from under you. Afraid you would take Missy with you, you try to pull away. Instead she scoops you up with ease.

"Doctor." You hear her whisper. You feel walking, and you assume your going to the TARDIS, finally. "She's sick." Missy states with a very concerned tone.

"I know." You see her run a hand through her blond bob before an overwhelming lethargy takes over you.
