Chapter 4 ― The Cracks Took My Nurse

***1O VOTES FOR CHAPTER 5***

So, I got 9 votes on the last chapter in less than 24 hours! You guys rock! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Let's see if I can get to 10 now!

I was honestly having the shittiest day ever and you guys really made me feel better :)

And also I would like to apologize about Amy Pond. I know I made her seem like a huge bitch in the last two chapters and I know that upset a few of you. There is a little explination for her behavior in this chapter. I think you will understand why she was so on the fence about AJ.

Lastly, there's a little "The Doctor's Mistress" reference in the second paragraph. Those who have read story will get it ;) post it in the comments if you do!

Hope you enjoy!

CHAPTER 4

THE CRACKS TOOK MY NURSE

 My room was a comfy place the Doctor had thought up himself to make me comfortable here. But it was odd.

Instead of a bed, a hammock hung in the middle of the room. One wall was completely covered by a library full with more books than it should have been able to hold. Another wall was covered in art work. Paintings of places you could only dream of. In the corner of every painting were the initials ZR.  The two other walls where a light blue, like the sky. To the right, there were double doors leading to a walk in closet full of clothes and shoes. I cringed at the heels.

There was a large fish aquarium against the wall full of colourful fish. Even a clown fish that reminded me of a movie of my childhood… The rest of the room was taken by odd little contraptions.

“Good night, AJ. See you tomorrow morning. Or afternoon or evening. Deepens on what time it is where we go… Complicated some times, but take all the time you need to rest!” the Doctor babbled out and finally left the room, leaving me alone for the first time since I got here.

I limped my way to my hammock and laid down in it, but I was unable to fall asleep.

The realization that I was free – finally free – was too overwhelming to fall asleep to. I could leave this place whenever I wanted. I could eat what I want, sleep when I want, actually wear clothes and no longer suffer the abuse. I smiled to myself, taking in a big breath of freedom that filled my lungs and a shiver of excitement went through my body. Closing my eyes, I saw the Doctor’s face smiling at me. My hero. My savour.

I opened my eyes to the TARDIS shaking violently, swinging my hammock almost to the point of having me fall off. I got out of bed and limped to the door to see what was going on. Out in the hall, a pair of crushes was leaning against the wall. I took them and placed them to make my way down to the main room of the TARDIS.

There, the Doctor was looking down sadly at the controls as Amy sat on the rail, looking bored. I question mark appeared my on face as I wondered where Rory was.

The Doctor’s head shot up when he heard my crushes arriving into the room.

“Oh look, the Miss We-No-Nothing-About just woke up,” Amy said, sarcastically.

“Amelia…” the Doctor said.

“Just saying…” she sighed and walked out of the room angrily, knocking down one of my crushes as she passed by me.

I bent down to pick it up and walked over to the Doctor, a little angry of what just happened as well.

“I’m terribly sorry about her. I guess she always had in her mind that I was hers and only hers and can’t bare to see someone else travelling with me…” he apologized and sat down on the seat.

“I understand. I’m the intruder. I’m ruining her time with you by simply being here…” I looked down to the floor. “Where’s Rory?”

“He doesn’t exist anymore…” he said.

“Oh really?” I asked sceptically.

“You see, somewhere, sometime, there will be a huge explosion causing cracks in all space and time. Anything that was unfortunate to fall in a crack simply disappeared from existence… Rory Williams has never lived. The only reason why you and I can remember him is because of the TARDIS, but Amy can’t because he’s been a huge part of her life ever since she was a little girl. Do you understand what I’m saying, Ariella?” he explained.

I nodded my head yes. I didn’t understand why and how, but I did know what he said. I also knew that was completely impossible, but so was a blue box being a hundred times bigger on the inside, right?

“I would ask of you not to mention Rory to her, she doesn’t know about her lost fiancé,” he added.

Fiancé, huh? Not bad Amy. You have good taste.  

It was a shame though, I liked Rory, he was the only one who didn’t hassle me. Only then did I notice that the bandage he had wrapped around my ankle the day before was gone.

“Where did you go?” I asked. They had obviously been somewhere for Rory to have fell through a crack.

“Oh, very long story! Let’s just say in a few hundred years, Earth will have new habitants! Do you wish to hear it?” he offered.

I decided why not? And he processed to babble on for a good hour about homoreptilia and an underground world, saving Amy only to have Rory be sucked into a crack.

It sounded incredible, unbelievable and amazing. Definitely not an everyday’s tale.
