Pain No Parent Should Ever Know//closed
River was in agony; she felt as though she'd been stabbed in each heart, or as if someone had ripped her hearts from her chest. Aden had holed himself up in his room, while the Doctor and Clara were trying their best to explain to little Susan and Jamie why one of their brothers would not be coming home again. She'd cried so many tears in the hospital, she thought she'd surely run out.
