She leans in and kisses him. But then pulls away. She places a hand on his cheek as tears fall from her eyes.
"I've missed you..." Ben states with a sad laugh.
"Course you did- you were always the clingy one..." Bella states with a smirk.
"Oh shut it..." Ben hisses at Bella who giggles.
Bella then examines bens face.

"My fiancé..... wait... I forgot you? We all did.... how did I-" Bella begins to stutter.
"It's a long story..." Ben sighs.
"And now you're a captain? I..." Bella stammers.
"We don't have much time." Ben announces.
"Oh sh. We have the rest of our lives you idiot... you're coming back with us. You're gonna see the stars with my raggedy doctor." Bella exclaims.
"You-" Ben stutters.
"I know. I travel with a madman. A lot to take in but you get used to it. Trust me." Bella shrugs with a giggle.
"Yeah..." Ben sighs.
"Anyway. Forest full of angels. Never a dull moment with you, huh? You've always liked a bit of excitement..." Bella says quickly.
"Right yes the angels..." Ben states with a nod. He then steps forward. Bella stays still and winces.
(Forest- Amy, river and Octavian)
"Amy, what's wrong?" River calls out to Amy.
"Four...." Amy sighs.
(Amy sways and sits down, then lies on the mossy tree trunk.)
"Med scanner, now." River yells.
"Doctor Song, we can't stay here. We've got to keep moving." Octavian hisses.
"We wait for the Doctor." River instructs Octavian.
"Our mission is to make this wreckage safe and neutralise the Angels. Until that is achieved-" Octavian begins to tell river when she cuts him off.
"Father Octavian, when the Doctor's in the room, your one and only mission is to keep him alive long enough to get everyone else home. And trust me, it's not easy. Now, if he's dead back there, I'll never forgive myself. And if he's alive, I'll never forgive him. And, Doctor, you're standing right behind me, aren't you?" River states angrily.
"Oh, yeah." The doctor exclaims happily.
"I hate you." River hisses at him.
"You don't. Bishop, the Angels are in the forest. And where is my other pond?" The doctor calls out.
