Doctor Who Imagines

1st & 12th Doctor x Reader

Y/n's POV

Watching my husband leave the Tardis I decide to give him some time to pull his head out of his ass but after about half an hour with no sign of him I start getting worried. Putting my book on the console I walk over to the door and pull it open to be met with the cold and the first and current version of my husband. Gaping at them as they both turn to me properly I blink as I try to wrap my head around what's happening. "Y/n? Is it truly you? You came back!" The original version of the Doctor exclaims and I just stare at him in shock before looking at the current version. "I don't know what he's told you but he's not me."

"He is you darling, he is you like you are him." I tell him as I cross my arms snapping out if my stupor and glare at him. "I didn't come back to you, you found me and dragged me back. Or your third regeneration did anyway."

"I apologise for everything, past and present." He says and I soften at that making him smile. "I'm so glad I get to see you again my love."

"You're fighting it when you shouldn't, you can't stop it Do-" I start to say as I leave the Tardis but get cut off as he pulls me into his arms while shaking his head.

"No titles, there has never been titles between us." He whispers into my hair and I nod against him as I hold him tight.

"I'll wait in the Tardis to give you both some time together." My current version of my husband says and kisses my head before disappearing inside.

"I shouldn't have let you go love, I should have held you like this all that time ago." Is whispered in my ear and I cry into his shoulder. "Now, now, no tears love. No crying."

"I should have been here Theta, I should have been with you when you regenerated and I wasn't. I missed you so much, I didn't get to say goodbye to you properly." I say into his shoulder before pulling away to look at him and he smiles at me as he cups my cheek, wiping my tears away.

"Ah but my love you are here, maybe originally you weren't but now you are." He says softly and I smile at him as I automatically reach up to fix his collar making him chuckle. "Tell me, did you ever forgive me?"

"I forgave you almost straight away my darling." I tell him as I grip his coat with a shiver and he takes it off wrapping it around my shoulders. "You need to regenerate Theta, you can't fight it. I know that you're stubborn, trust me I live with you and have done for eleven regenerations now you don't get any less stubborn. You need to let it happen my darling Theta." I say as his regeneration energy starts spreading up his arm and we both watch it.

"I was only fighting it on hopes of finding you, I've never stopped looking love." He tells me and I look at him with wide eyes. "I'm scared y/n, I don't want to go."

"I know but I'm here Theta, I'm right beside you my darling. I'm not going anywhere." I tell him and pull him into a short kiss before the energy takes over him completely forcing me away from him. "Doctor! Theta, get out here now! We need to move him to his version of the Tardis." I shout and my husband comes running out, pulling me into his arms.

"We need to be quick about this y/n." He says and I nod as I follow my current husband who's carrying his old self, damn that's confusing. Following him into the older Tardis I watch him place the old him down while I move to the console to record a message. "So this is how I got the message?"

"I guess so my darling." I tell him as I hold the coat around my shoulders close to my body. "Doctor, my dear darling Theta. By the time you see this I'll be gone again and we won't meet for a while yet but I need you to know that I love you. I always have and always will love you and I'm sorry if I've ever made you think any differently. Currently you're regenerating for the first time and I wish that I could stay but this isn't my timeline, you'll probably scold me for this at some point down the road but it'll be worth it because we'll be together again. There's so much I want to tell you and warn you about but we both know that I can't, I hold so much guilt and regret knowing that I won't be there for you through this next stage but just remember that for as long as you love and remember me I'll always be with you. I'll always guide you through tough times even when I'm not here. Don't stop looking for me and you'll find me when its time. Goodbye for now my darling Theta, I'll see you again someday my love." I end my video message and store it in the Tardis, scheduling it to play an hour after he wakes up knowing that hell be more coherent by them, or I hope he will be anyway. Turning to my husband I start to follow him out of the old Tardis but stop to kiss the old him on the cheek with a whispered love you before we run out together.

"Do you feel better now my love?" He asks me as we enter the Tardis and pulls me into him as I nod. "Is this going to be added to the collection? Your little memory box?"

"In a few years maybe, you don't mind if I wear it for a bit do you?" I ask as I play with his hair and he shakes his head with a grin. "I have always loved your stubborn ass Theta and I always will."

"Oh I know, you see I have a video that I watch whenever we're apart that reminds me just how much you do love me." He says with a smile as he pushes me against the console, lifting me onto it with ease making me laugh as I wrap my legs around his waist holding him close to me. "And thank you for the last kiss of my first regeneration, you have no idea how happy that made me, him, us. How happy it made us."

"No, thank you for giving me the closure that I needed. I didn't realise how much I needed to say goodbye to him properly." I tell him as I run my hands along his shoulders and squeal when he picks me up, carrying me down to our room making me laugh.
