My Doctor, running, hiding, yelling.  I can see it all.  I love being with the Doctor, My Doctor.  I love him more than anything.  I'm back in his space machine and the glowing golden light is burning my eyes, I have to look away.  As I do, the light dims and I'm just standing there wide eyed at what I am looking at. I can't describe it.  Oh wait yes I can, it's John!  Doctor John smith... Oh.  His cover up name is John Smith.  "D-Doctor?" I inch closer to him, making sure this isn't a trick or something.  I touch his arm and he pulls me into a hug.  He smells the same as John.  "Rose it's me."  He whispers to me softly.  I cry into his chest, knowing how hard this would have been for him.  He strokes my head softly.  "Rose you're okay now, that's all I care about for the time being."  The image is starting to shimmer.  The Doctor is loosing his figure and I can barley see.  "Doctor? Doctor! I-I-I-" I can't finish the sentence.  What did he look like again? No I can't remember him! "Doctor! Come Back!"  

"Come back, come back."  I wake up slowly with John sleeping next to me.  I sit up quickly and look around.  "My name is Rose Tyler, I'm in Torchwood, John asked me out last night."  Good, at least Those memories haven't gone away.  I look at John and he looks strangely familiar.  How? I don't know.  He just looks so familiar.  "You okay Rose?"  He asks with droopy eyelids.  I look at him and rub my head.  "Yeah fine, just have a headache..."  John sit's up and puts his hand on my forehead.  He hands me a glass of water and I start to feel better.  I chug down the whole glass and put the glass in my lap.  "I thought I had another memory lapse."  John looks at me wierdly.  "What did you see or thought you saw."  I try to think, but it's gone.  Stolen, forgotten of maybe just lost.  I don't know.  "I-I don't know."  I speak honestly.  "But from the moment I saw you this morning, you look strangely familiar."  He gives me what I think is a cautious look.  He holds my hand lightly.  "We'll figure this out Rose I promise."  He kissed my cheek and walks to the door.  He stops at the door and faces me.  "Do you want to go to dinner tonight?"  I smile and the headache is gone.  'Sure."  He smiles and walks out the door.

I'm in my room putting on a nice dress for tonight.  But I can't decide which one.  "Black, red, blue or pink."  Great, now I'm talking to myself as well, I must be going mad.  I look at all the dresses spread out on my bed and hum to myself.  I tap my forehead and can't decide which dress to wear.  

Someone knocks on my door.  "Hello, Rose it's Gwen.  Can I come in?" I walk over to the door and open it.  "Hey Gwen, I'm just trying to decide what dress I'm going to wear tonight.  It's harder than I thought it would be."  

Gwen looks at the dresses, then at me and smiles.  "I reckon this one."  She points to the black dress.  It sits just above my knees and is meant to be worn with a belt.  I pick up the dress and measure it to myself in the mirror.  I nod in approval still a bit nervous.  "Hey Gwen?"  "What's up?"  I look in the mirror again.  "I-I'm really nervous about tonight.  I remember going on dates, but this one feels different."  I admit, I am very nervous about this.  I know John from somewhere else, but don't know where from.  "I-I was just wondering if you could give me some advice, ya know, on the whole dating thing."  I look at the ground then back up at Gwen.  She smiles kindly at me.  "Well, there's really only one thing you need to know about going on dates.  Don't be anyone but youreself."  She pats my sholder and smiles again.  "I remember my first date too.  Oh I was so scared, but do you know what?  After about 10 minutes, you don't feel as nervous anymore.  It just flows."  She smiles once more before leaving me to get changed.

I slip out of the bathroom with my dress on.  Gwen comes back into my room again and gawks at me.  "Oh my god, Rose you look, gorgeous!" She exclaims.  I smile and get out the shoes I'm going to wear, they're just sneakers, it's all I have.  Gwen gives me a confused look.  You're going to wear sneakers with that dess?"  I look up at her.  "I don't have anything else."  "Ah."  Gwen grabs my arm and hoists me up.  "Come on then, I've got some shoes you can borrow."  We walk off to Gwens room.

Gwen gives me some black heels, not to high, but just high enough to be able to still stand straight in.  I put them on, along with the earings, necklace, makeup and belt that she gave to me.  Gwen turns me around so I can look in her mirror.  I gasp when I see my reflection.  "G-Gwen, I-Is that? Me?"  I ask completley dumbfound.  She looks at me and smiles with admiration.  "Love, if I could look as good as you did, I wouldn't be working here!"  I laugh a bit before hearing a knock on the door.  "Hey you girls nearly ready?  John's anxious to see Rose-" Gwes scurries to the door and let's Jack and Ianto in oh God why'd you have to do that Gwen? "Doesn't she look gorgeous boys!" She exclaims at them, obviously very proud of herself. "I gotta give it to you Gwen, you really out did yourself this time" Ianto says before him and Jack hurry me out the door to see John.

"Come on, how does she look?"  I hear John complain in the background.  I giggle a bit before turning to Gwen.  I give her a hug.  "Thankyou so much Gwen, I owe you big time."  She laughs.  "It's okay luv, good luck, have fun and remember, be no-one but youreself.  Good luck."  She smiles at me once more before I walk to the door.

John just stares at me as I walk into the Torchwood hub, followed by Gwen, Jack and Ianto.  "Oh my gosh.  Rose, Rose you look, umm."  I can tell he's just as nervous as I am.  I walk over to John slowly as I try not to slip on my heels.  Then I get an idea.  Just as I am about 2 or 3 feet away from John, I fake a trip and fall into his arms.  He catches me quickly, his face going red.  "Rose, you okay?" I look up at John before standing up again.  "Yeah, yeah I'm fine.  Come on the John, take me out to dinner."

Hey guys, sorry for such a long wait, I had a lot of Homework plus a bit of writers block.  Please tell me if I have any spelling mistakes in my story, because it's late and I can't spell when it's late.  Also, due to the last few chapters being really down beat, I tried to make this one seem a bit more "happy."  Comment, vote and share.  Tell me if you want me to write a story on one of your favourite OTP's (yes I will re-search them)  I will probably be updating sooner seeing as all my schoolwork is complete now.
