I will be with you forever-a TenRose fanfic

Part 2: Two Years Later

I wake up to Vanessa crying in her crib in my small apartment. I drag myself out of bed and pick her up and rock her. I still can't get over her appearance. She is so beautiful. She has my eyes and his hair. I still can't bring myself to say his name out loud. Another day another dollar. Mum is worried about me. She says every day I break a little more but I'm not so much breaking as already broken and I'm just counting down the days until I die alone. If Vanessa wasn't here I probably wouldn't be either. The only thing that gets me out of bed and gives me a tiny sliver of hope in this dark world is Vanessa. I'm back to working in the shop again, barely making enough for Vanessa and I to live but if I need anything mum comes by. I feel her slowly falling back asleep but I keep holding her, the only thing that keeps me holding on another day with the tiniest hope that someday he will come back for me. Oh who am I kidding, I'm not special, he's had many companions over the ages. He's probably off having adventures with some pretty girl, one who can hold on... He's probably forgotten all about me.
