It has to be said at some point that things never really stay the same... oh, you can keep your memories, your ideas of the past that get warped with time, but life goes on... old breaks or reinforces, and new crumbles under old or instead, crushes it itself, the Doctor always had companions, but they never stayed, leaving because of age or accidents that took then far before their time... it is because of this that it is unsurprising that the doctor never fully attached himself  to his companions, sure he joked with them and showed them things beyond their wildest imaginations, but he never got attached... that is what loss does to a person...
Than harry appeared... he was like him... A Time tot!... the last Time tot... in the past few years the doctor has shown him the world, taught him about gallifry, the culture, knowledge and power, that's when Harry started to show potential, the way he moved (levitated, summons) and transformed (created, destroyed) things with nary a thought had had the doctor swirling in emotions... he was a mage, something that hadn't been seen for generations even before the time lords came to an end....
But here he was... infront of him...
A couple years later, the doctor walked into the hospital with the munchkin in tow, harry looked about 6, as timelords took centuries to grow, his mind was a genius but he still retained many childlike qualities...
The Doctor had checked in as a Mr Smith and had settled on the bed with harry carefully perched on the chair next to him... than the curtains around the bed opened...

Harry knew the moment that the doctor saw Martha Jones that there would be a new companion on board the TARDIS... her... he didn't blame his dad (because that is what the doctor was to him) for being lonely, he knew that as much as his dad loved him, he missed interacting with adults, usually when the doctor gained a new companion he would hide and play tricks on them to make his dad laugh, he never did anything cruel and it was funny to watch them try to figure out why some thing they left in the kitchen is suddenly next to them in the living room, he had never revealed himself to the companions, prefering to be thought of as a ghost the doctor picked up somewhere during his travels, but he doubted that would happen this time, Martha had already seen him and was looking curiously at him before turning to speak with his dad, he blocked out their conversation, instead focusing on the strange feelings he was having... he reached out and tugged on the doctors sleeve
- Dad?...
The Doctor look up at him with worry at his tone
- what is it little one?
Harry looked around wearily
-something bad is going to happen, I can feel it...
Just then, the building gave a shake and all he'll broke loose after a nurse looked out the window...
- what the ****!? We're on the moon!?
Huh, harry thought to himself, Martha looks scared, that was more than he could say about the doctors other companions, they had no self-preservation to speak of... he wondered if his dad chose people like himself on purpose? Well, maybe Martha will have a head on her shoulders... he DID NOT appreciate rose flirting with his dad, she had a boyfriend! And it was his dad!
He look at Martha, maybe she will stop to many crazy adventures?

He really shouldn't have gotten his hopes up...
