Lily's POV

I'm hating myself so much right now- how can a guy I don't even know steal my heart?

I also feel incredibly hurt. Clara doesn't care whether I live or die. I don't like her anymore but I thought we're still friends.

I realize I've been staring at this Doctor guy much too long, and hes uncomfortable. I avert my eyes. "So..." I say casually. "You're the Doctor I've heard." I turn and look into those startling green eyes, my gold braid swinging over my shoulder. "Doctor who?"

A grin spreads across his face. Very attractive. "just the Doctor. And I presume by Clara's exiting speech that your name is Lily?"

I nod. "Yeah. Just Lily. Plain old Liy. Lily can die don't worry. She's disposable."

He looks alarmed. "Are you suicidal?" he edges away.

I laugh. "No!" I remember Clara's words. "Just... Hurt."

A look of understanding crosses his face. "She'll come around. So will Danny." he look hard at me. "D'you have a boyfriend?" He pauses then adds-"Girlfriend?"

I try not to blush. Did he know I was bi? "I liked someone for a while," I say nonchalantly. "But I recently got over them and moved on.

"To someone else?"

Why is he doing this? "Uh..." I cough pointedly and turn away.

"Oh. Sorry. Prying. My etiquette with humans isn't quite up to date..."

My eyebrow raises. "Why do you call us humans? What the hell are YOU, then?"
