A/N So here begins some of the final chapters! I think there are probably around 4 left to this story! There will be a sequel though, but I am also taking a break from this series after I finish FIAD and TWWW. I think you all will like this chapter, more fluff and not alot happens but that will change soon! P.S. This is dedicated to @Nymeria_Wolf who is having a bad day. I hope this makes her feel better!

Electra’s POV

        I woke up in a tangle of bed sheets with a long thin arm wrapped tightly around my waist. I smiled and let out a sigh as I gently rolled over to face the Doctor. I loved to watch him sleep, he always looked so peaceful.

     I ran a hand gently through his hair and he began to slowly stir. He smiled and I kissed his nose. “Good morning love.” I whispered and his eyelids fluttered open to reveal those now mesmerizingly blue eyes of his that I had yet to get used to.

     “Good morning Electra.” He whispered back and then kissed me lightly on the mouth. We sat and stared contentedly at each other for what seemed like forever. The Doctor played with my hair and ran his thumb gently along my cheek.

     “You know, this is what I missed the most, just being with you in every way. All of it, and especially this, just lying together and talking.” I closed my eyes and smiled as I leaned into his touch.

    He kissed me again and I leaned into the kiss deepening it. We were just getting into it when the door flew open, me and the Doctor turned to look and there was Claire standing in shock in the doorway. “I- I’m sorry.” She blurted out quickly before shutting the door and leaving us alone again.

     The Doctor sat up and I followed suit wrapping my arms around his bare shoulders. “She has to learn how to grow up love.” I whispered gently and he nodded. “I know, but it’s just so hard sometimes.” I ran my fingers through his hair again and nodded into his neck.

    “I know love, I know, but some things they need to figure out themselves.” He sighed and turned to look at me. I kissed him gently and he smiled weakly. “I am spending all day with you, well at least until I have to go to that meeting later.” He said and I smiled. “Good I was hoping you would.”

Claire’s POV

    I didn’t understand, I am 22 freaking years old and I don’t understand! After I had walked in on the Doctor and Electra, doing what it is I guess married people do I ran off. Besides my dad and the Doctor I didn’t understand love at all.

    I had only ever had one crush, and it had ended so badly I never had another one again. But I wanted so badly to understand but I haven’t the faintest idea of how to do that.

    I was so used to hiding my emotions, in a world where anyone could die at any time, and it was highly likely that they would, you learn real quick how not to feel. No one ever said it was a good thing, but it was surviving, that’s all it was.

    Suddenly having an idea I spun around on my heel and walked quickly to Mark’s room, next to the Doctor he was my only friend and he was also a bit of a player. Not that he had ever tried anything on me personally, but he would know better than anyone and might have the answers to some of my questions.

    I reached his door and knocked. It was opened a minute later by a very tired looking Mark who was rubbing sleep from his eyes. “Do you have a girl in there?” I asked and he shook his head. “Good cause I need to talk to you.” I pushed past him and into his room.

    He shut the door and sat down wearily on the bed. “Claire, what’s this about?” He finally asked and I sighed. “What’s it like?” I finally asked and he gave me a confused look “What’s what like?”

     “You know!” I made some hand gestures and he got even more confused looking.

      “No Claire I really don’t.”

     “Ugh! Kissing, sex, love! What’s it like?”

        Realization dawned on his ridiculously handsome face and he studied me a minute before answering. “Where did this come from Claire?” I shrugged  and he smiled. “Sadly sweetie that’s no good enough.”

      “I just got to wondering what it was like, since I have never experienced it.”

      He nodded his head and then got up and came over to me. He got down on his knees so we were at eye level and he took my hands in his. “It’s not something you can really explain, you have to experience it.”

    “Well then show me.” I whispered before leaning in and placing my lips on his. The effect was almost instantaneous. Every nerve and cell in my body immediately began to tingle and I felt my senses become more aware of everything around me.

    One of Mark’s hands landed gently on my waist, he pulled back. “Are you sure?” He asked and I nodded. He pulled me back into him and we fell to the floor with me on top of him. He rolled us over and looked down at me. “This may be hard to believe, but I have had a thing for you since we were kids.”

Rick’s POV

     I was worried about Claire, I didn’t know why, I had no real reason to be worried about her. I had way bigger things to worry about, like how what was left of this world was falling to pieces. How Gildrek was getting stronger every day as we got weaker.

    Truth was we needed a miracle, it was the only way we were ever going to get out of this. A very big miracle, “Oh Clara, why did you have to leave me?” I asked of the empty room. “You and I both know I never left you.”

     “Hallucinations don’t count.” I replied to the dark haired woman who had appeared in the room. “Oi American boy! Don’t you get started, I’m not the one who hallucinates me.” She beamed at me, she was the same age as when I met her in my mind. That is how I would always see her I think.

    Next to Electra she was one of my closest friends, if none of this had ever happened we probably would have never even ended up together at all! “I can’t talk now Clara” I said sadly as she faded away. I put my head in my hands, everything was falling apart and there was nothing I could do to stop it.

Electra’s POV

      We had a little over an hour left before the Doctor had to go to his meeting, but that wouldn’t be for very long, then he was coming back here. We had found my iPod and were dancing as soft music played. ‘Kiss Me Slowly’ by Parachute was on and as we danced I sang softly.

“Stay with me, baby stay with me, tonight don’t leave me alone. She shows me everything she used to know, picture frames and country roads, when the days were long and the world was small.”

“She stood by as it fell apart, separate rooms and broken hearts, but I wont be the one to let you go.”

     The Doctor cut me off by kissing me and I smiled. “Is it bad out there?” I whispered and he nodded his head a sad look on his face. “Were losing aren’t we?” He nodded again and I kissed his cheek.

    He pulled me into a hug and buried his face into my neck, I knew that I needed to fix this, somehow whether he wanted me to try again or not, I had to fix this. It wasn’t supposed to be this way, none of it was.

A/N So much fluff! Its crazy! Anyway hope you all enjoyed!!!!! New chapter sooner than later! The song is Kiss Me Slowly by Parachute
