I leave the Doctor alone in front of Rose's room.
Why did I do that to him, I think to myself as I walk to my office. I open the door only to find Ianto in in his pants only laying on my desk looking st the ceiling with a bored expression on his face. I catch my breath for a second and can't help but stare at him. How can I resist? I then think again and look at the ground. "Not right now Ianto, can you put your clothes back on and meet me later please. I need some time to think." Ianto looks disappointed for a minute but he understands. "Of course sir. Should you need me though I'll just be downstairs." Once Ianto put on his clothes he came over and gave me a kiss on the lips. It would have gotten bigger if I hadn't asked him to leave. "Hey Ianto" I say in hope that he will turn around. He does. "Yes sir?" I hate it when he calls me sir, "enough with the sir okay," I say a little sterner than I realize. "Of course...Jack." He puts emphasis on the "Jack" I give him a wink and he walks out of the room.
I sit there in the disturbing comfort of my own office. I can feel hot tears rolling down my cheeks. I place my head on the table and start to cry, softly clawing at my hair as I think about Rose. I fall asleep on my desk still crying whilst I try to figure out a plan to get Rose's memory back.
I wake up with Ianto laying next to me. He must have carried me to bed last night while I was asleep. I hold Ianto's hand and stared at the ceiling. Suddenly an idea struck my head like lighting. I leap up and grab every gadget Rose saw me with. "I thought I showed her more that this" I say to myself as I pick up my sonic blaster, vortex manipulator and a few other things. I strut up to the Doctor who is leaning up against the wall not knowing what to do. I throw him a white lab coat and walk towards him. "Okay, Doctor Smith, are you ready to see her?" I ask suddenly realizing how weird that sounds. He stares up at me, puts on the lab coat and walks to the door before I stop him. "You'll need these." I hold out the bits and bobs I collected. The Doctor chooses the vortex manipulator to start of with, smiles at me then disappears into Rose's room acting like he's seen her many times before.
I walk to my office and take a seat once again and start to think about what's going on. "I should head back to Ianto." I think to myself, not realizing I say it out loud. I sit there for about an hour staring at the wall when the Doctor walks out of Rose's room slowly closing the door and throwing away the smile. He walks up the stairs to my office to give me back the vortex manipulator he borrowed.
At the same time the Doctor walks into my office Martha Jones walks into Rose's room. That's weird, I didn't know that the Doctor asked Martha to check up on Rose... I sigh to myself as I remember that the Doctor just walked in.
I gesture him to sit down in the chair in front of me and hand him a cup of tea that Ianto made for me while I was zoned out. "Sorry, Doc, it may be a bit cold." I shrug and hand him the surprisingly warm cup of tea. He takes a sip makes an approving face.
"So, Doctor?" I ask as I put on the whole serious act. Shallow voice, dark piercing eyes that scare almost everyone, but the Doctor, and lean forward with my fingers intertwined with each other. "How's Rose doing?" I ask him trying not to sound to harsh. I look into his eyes as his head comes up. He takes a sip of tea then says "oh well she's doing okay I suppose, little bit of amnesia but I'm sure it will subside soon-"
"How long-"
"Jack, Jack, Jack, amnesia needs time and patience to get over. Maybe give it a week, a month, maybe more." I lean back in the seat and look at the table remembering when I first met the Doctor, true, in the end he nearly sent me to my death but this could just be too much for him. I look up from my memory lapse only to see him try to hold back tears. I get up from my chair and wrap my arms around him. He starts to cry softly like a child. I bring him close to my chest as my normally pretentious Doctor weeps in my arms like a child. I can share his sympathy about Rose, she was there from his 9th regeneration, and now, she can't remember a thing. I try not to cry, but feel hot tears running down my cheeks.
The Doctor keeps visiting Rose every day for a while. But sometimes it just gets too much for him to handle. One day, the team and I had a long talk about what we could do to help Rose. Gwen suggests giving the Doctor psychiatric treatment, which makes him and the rest of us laugh a bit before we get back to what we were talking about. Owen suggests we just put Rose in a home for crazy people in and amnesiac section. "That's horrible, Owen!" We all shout that at him. He makes a counter offer, "Well if you don't like that idea-"
"Which we don't." The Doctor and I say in unison with a dry tone.
"Whatever. The point is, I could run a few tests on her to see if her memory will come back, seeing as I am the doctor around here, Uhm, no offence Doctor."
"None taken." Says the Doctor, holding his screwdriver against the table as if he's afraid someone might take it. "We'll, think about it Owen. I don't think the Doctor would be very comfortable using Rose as one of your crash test dummies. Any more ideas?" I ask trying to sound hopeful. I look around the room hoping that someone will have an idea. "Why don't we take her out for the day, maybe some place she's been before, or perhaps her own home?" We all look at Ianto and I give him a thankful smile. The Doctor looks at him surprised "I-I don't see why not. Her mum would be worried sick." Everyone looks at me for the final say in what we will do. I sigh and place my booklet on the table, "it's decided then." I state with a confident tone. "Rose is going on a field trip."
