A whole year later.
****
A year ago. Exactly a year since George died. I have got so much better, I'm my normal self again, after a whole year of grief. I'm ready to venture back into the dating world, even though I'm absolutely Heartbroken. I will never forget George ever. The Doctor has been lovely too, he's been the most supportive and loveliest man I've ever met, I appreciate everything. I've seen him every day for a year. And today I am excited to tell him my major move to look for a lover; the past year has been the hardest year of my life. But I'm slowly building it back up again.
"Alice!" Exclaims the Doctor, hugging me after he steps out of his blue box which is precariously parked in my bedroom.
"Guess what!" I say.
"What..?" Smirks the Doctor.
"I'm ready to start looking for a boyfriend."
"That's great news!" Beams the Doctor. "I'm so proud of you clever girl, you've come so far in a year!" I hug the Doctor again.
"Right, where today?" He asks.
"I'm sooooo tired. I can't be bothered." I yawn and collapse onto my bed.
"Come on, we haven't gone anywhere for ages and ages!" Nags the Doctor, pulling me up and into the TARDIS.
"Do you remember our first adventure?" Laughs the Doctor.
"Yeah, with the weeping angels and River Song." I reply.
"River Song!" Shouts the Doctor, "where. Is. river. Song? I haven't seen her for months! Let's find her!"
I'm so excited to see river again, the last time I saw her George was alive.
We arrive at river's prison.
INTRUDER ALERT.
INTRUDER ALERT.
INTRUDER ALERT.
Men with guns surround us.
"God I've missed this!" I shout, giving the Doctor a cheeky grin.
"Aha! Hello everyone, we just came to visit someone!" Says the Doctor, holding his arms up.
"Who?" Asks a guard.
"River Song." I reply.
The men put the guns down and lead us to her cell, there she is. River Song.
"Hello sweetie." Whispers the Doctor to River. "Hi." Answers river, they stare into each other's eyes. "Alice! I haven't seen you for so long. I would hug you but there are bars..." she laughs.
"George died." I tell her the news.
River gasps and says "you are a strong girl, I hope you've got through this ok. That's awful!" She looks down for a minute, thinking about George.
"So, why are you here?" Whispers Rjver to the Doctor.
"Alice and I thought we'd pay you a visit, seeing as you are supposed to be my 'wife.'" Smiles the Doctor. Suddenly, he uses his screwdriver to open to cell and quickly rushes us into the TARDIS. Locking the door, the Doctor then turns round. "I can hug you now!" Chuckles river, "it's iso good to see you again!" She smiles to me.
The Doctor looks at her expectantly. "What, love?" Says river.
They kiss. I look away. Gross. I never thought these two would end up together but there's a first time for everything.
"Right. Are you done?" I burst out laughing. "Yes, Alice Cooke." Replies the Doctor.
"I should probably go, I think the guards are a bit; you know - angry. Bye loves." And with that she's gone.
"Please can we go home, Doctor?" I ask. "Alright, you boring girl!"
"First it was clever, now boring, make your mind up, Doc!" I reply
He puts his arm round me, "me and you are a team, yes?" He whispers.
"always." I reply.
"My clever girl."
"I'm going to hate it when you regenerate, I always want it to be the Eleventh Doctor and me!"
"Oh don't worry, I'll always be me, Alice Cooke."
He's my best friend, and he's my doctor.
