Doctor Who

Chapter 1 - Rose's POV

I was sitting outside in the park when a blue phone box materialized in front of me. Something was wrong. I could feel it. I've lived 22 years of my life as a human. Just recently I was told that I'm a Time Lord. I'm also known as "Bad Wolf". That story is a long one and I don't particularly feel like elaborating on that. Anyways, where was I? Oh yes. A blue phone box materialized in front of me. As a Time Lord, I could tell right away that something was wrong. Very wrong. Something didn't feel right. I stood up from the bench and walked over to the blue phone box and opened the door and cautiously stepped inside and closed the door behind me. I looked around. I walked around the console and found a man laying on the floor unconscious. I knew what I had to do. I walked over to the man and picked him up and carried him all the way back to my place. I reached my place and opened the door and walked in and closed the door behind me with my foot and walked up the stairs into the spare room that I kept for regeneration purposes. It was simple but comfortable. I use it when I regenerate. I set him on the bed and walked out of the spare room and walked down the stairs and walked out of my house. The blue phone box was currently sitting in my front yard. I walked back into my house and walked up the stairs into the spare room and sat down in a nearby armchair and watched the man regenerate. I wasn't really surprised when he regenerated. I'm used to it by now. I waited for him to fully regenerate. When the golden glow faded, the man stirred and came to. He sat up and looked around. He said confusedly: "where am I? This definitely isn't the TARDIS." I took that as my cue to make my presence known. I said: "you're in my house. This is the spare room that I keep on hand for regeneration purposes. Your TARDIS is outside in my front yard. I know what you are. You're a Time Lord." The man said: "who are you? And how do you know what I am?" I said calmly: "My name is Rose Tyler. I'm a Time Lord myself. I'm also known as "Bad Wolf". I was in the park when your TARDIS materialized in front of me. I knew that something was wrong right away. Either that or your TARDIS has a crazy sense of humor. You're safe here." Then I stood and went to walk out but the man said: "my wife's name was Rose Tyler. You look exactly like her." I froze. Could it be? I turned around and said quietly: "John?" The man nodded. I took off my thick black leather jacket and set it in the armchair and hesitated then ran over and fairly launched myself into his waiting arms. I knew. This man is my husband. I had no doubt in my mind that this man really is my husband. He wrapped his arms around me and held me. I knew for sure that this man really is my husband. Only John would hold me like this. We stayed there in an embrace for what seemed like forever. Then he pulled away and said: "Rose, I am so happy to see you again." I smiled and said: "me too. Now go change your outfit. Leather doesn't suit your current incarnation." John said: "I can't tell." I laughed and stood and grabbed a full length mirror and rolled it over. John pulled a face and said: "you're right. This looks bloody awful on me." I laughed and took a picture of the look on his face and moved the full length mirror back in the corner and said: "come on. By the way, I took a picture of the look on your face. It was hilarious. You looked like you were sucking on a bitter lemon." John stood and walked over to me. I slipped my hand into his and led him out of the spare room after grabbing my thick black leather jacket and putting it on. We walked out of my house and walked into the TARDIS. We walked down the hall to his room and walked in. I let go of his hand and said: "okay, let me see what you have. Just trust me." I opened his closet and flipped through his outfits until I found a black pinstripe suit and a brown trenchcoat. I smiled to myself. Perfecto. I grabbed the black pinstripe suit and brown trenchcoat and walked over to John and said: "here. Try this." I handed him the black pinstripe suit and brown trenchcoat and walked out of his room to give him some privacy to get changed. I closed the door behind me and leaned against the wall. A few minutes later, John came out. I pushed off from the wall and said: "let me see." John turned around. I looked at him intently then said: "much better. This outfit suits you much better." John said: "I noticed pictures on the wall in the kitchen of a little girl." I sighed. Shit. I forgot to tell him about Maddie. I should have known he'd notice the pictures of our daughter. As soon as we get inside the house, I'm going to come clean and tell him about Maddie. John said: "something you wanna tell me?" I said: "I'll explain once we get inside the house." John nodded. Then we walked out of the TARDIS and walked over to the house and walked in and shut the door. I led him into the living room and sat down and motioned for him to sit as well. John sat down and waited. I took a moment or so to compose myself before telling him about Maddie. Finally I said: "John, there's someone I want you to meet." I felt it best for John to meet Maddie himself. I stood and led him up the stairs. I knew that he was behind me because I could hear his converse sneakers behind me. I led him down the hall to Maddie's room. We stopped in front of Maddie's door. I said: "wait here." Then I knocked on her door. The door opened. I knelt down so I was level with Maddie and said: "sweetie, there's someone I want you to meet." Maddie stepped out of her room and closed her door behind her. I picked her up and settled her on my hip and said: "John, meet Maddie. She's our daughter. She's in preschool right now. Maddie, say hi." I was expecting her typical mild-mannered response. What I wasn't expecting was for her to hop down from my hip and march over to John and quite literally do a leg sweep and knock John down. And then proceed to yell at him in Gallifreyan. I mentally groaned. I should never have taught her Gallifreyan or hand to hand combat for that matter. Of course, I suppose she has a right to lash out at him. After all, she's had no father figure in her life. I told her about him. But I guess she's hurt that John hasn't been in her life. All she wanted was to have two parents. Instead, she only had me. I knew that John was looking at me, confused. After a while, Maddie stopped yelling at him in Gallifreyan. I think she's mellowed out now. I watched as Maddie basically plopped down onto John's lap. She snuggled up close to him and buried her head in his chest. I decided to let them get acquainted with each other. I walked into my room and closed the door behind me and sank down against the door and started crying softly. I can't do anything right. After a while, I stood and walked into the bathroom and grabbed a blade and walked out of the bathroom and sat down on the floor and rolled up my sleeve and drew the blade across my wrist.
