Amy Williams nee Pond checked the clock wondering where her husband was. They were meant to be going out for dinner tonight with friends and he'd promised he would get away on time.
It was the one thing that she hated about Rory, the fact that even after finishing a shift he would jump in to help without thought and end up leaving several hours after he was meant to. And it was also one of the things she loved about him.
Grabbing her phone she quickly called him, frowning when it rang until going through to his voicemail. Frustrated, Amy opened her contacts and looked for the reception desk at the hospital.
"Hi, Davy," she said once he'd gone through his spiel. "It's Amy Williams. Has Rory left yet?"
"Let me check..." Davy murmured, the sound of papers being moved around, and a few shouts came through the phone before he came back on. "From what I can see he must have left about an hour ago. He had one last patient, but it's odd there's no paperwork returned. I'm sure the room has been used by other people since then. Can you hold and I'll have another look?"
"Of course," Amy replied, trying not to get worried. Rory was popular at the hospital and if someone needed help then they would've called him. And of course, her Rory would help without thought."
"Amy," Davy came back on. "No one has seen him since his last patient. And the chart was found under the bed."
Concerned, Amy clenched her fist to keep herself calm. "Thanks, Davy. Let me know if he turns up."
"I will," Davy said before they hung up.
Amy paced the room taking several deep breaths before she tried to ring Rory again. And again, and again, and again. Each time it rang several times then went to his voicemail.
"Rory," she snapped on the last call. "If you're just not answering then I am going to silent treatment you from here till the end of the universe."
Frustrated, Amy put the phone on the table and sat waiting for it to ring. Hoping that he was on his way home and just left his phone at the hospital.
Two hours later, Amy was getting even more worried than before and had called Rory at least a dozen more times.
Grabbing the phone again this time she dialed a different number and forced herself to remain calm as she waited for the phone to be answered.
"Amy," the Doctor's voice came. "How wonderful you called. I was just thinking about Ponds."
"Doctor," she felt relieved to hear his voice and asked, "You haven't picked up Rory, have you?"
A confused silence came from the other side of the call before the Doctor said, "No. Why?"
"He hasn't come home from work," Amy explained. "And he isn't answering his phone. I'm...I'm just worried because he never does anything like this."
"I'm on my way," the Doctor told her.
The line went dead before the familiar comforting sound of the TARDIS filled the room, the moment it settled, the Doctor opened the door and Amy threw herself into his arms.
"I'm so glad you're here," Amy whispered. "I know I'm probably overreacting, but Rory promised he'd be home on time tonight and if he didn't mange to keep that promise, he'd have called me. Or even answered my call."
The Doctor hugged her. "I know. Come on, I'll get the TARDIS to look for him."
Relief filled her and Amy grabbed her phone before following her best friend inside. She watched the Doctor bounce around the console and soon the engines started.
