⋆⭒˚.⋆ when she'd found her way back , she had no way of knowing what face the doctor would wear , whether she'd find him in years past or if she'd find some new face in the future . she's not even sure it mattered . she'd been with him through two faces and who he had been never changed . he was forever the doctor . forever the man who ran away in a telephone box and saved the universe . forever the man whose hand she'd held and trusted .
it would never matter what face he wore .
being back on the tardis was a bit like riding a bike . it may look different , but it still feels familiar , still feels like home . she's missed it . she's lost track of how long she's been back ... time has never been her strong point . but she doesn't care . she has forever , now . if he still wants her there . she doesn't know what he's been through , who he's met , what companions he might still have . the last thing she wants to do is assume that things are the same . she doesn't want to get her heart broken ... she's not sure how many more she could take before her heart went cold .
warm smile pulls to her lips at his words . she crosses to him , leaving her spot at the console to take his hand . somehow it feels like it always had . comforting , right . " me too , doctor . i've missed this . you , the tardis . it feels like i've come home . "
