For just_muse_me Prompt 18-2-3 All you need is love
It was coming. Tosh could feel it in the air. She didn’t know how she knew, just that she did.
It was okay though. Really.
The night she realised, she smiled to herself as she sat at home, working through some reports. It struck her, crept up on her silently, like a whisper on the wind.
Tosh did what she knew she had to.
She made a list.
Over the next few days she started to tick off things from her list. Some were difficult, and took time. Others were easy.
And no one knew what she was doing.
That sense that someone was coming became clearer the day that Martha arrived at Torchwood. Somehow Tosh knew it would be soon.
And it was still okay. She went through her list, finishing off things, one by one.
There was one thing she still had to do.
The next day, Martha was going to enter the Pharm, find out what was going on. Everyone had taken off for the night, and Tosh was left alone.
She sat at her monitor, and pressed some buttons, then took off her glasses, and began to speak.
“if you're seeing this, I guess it means, I'm.... well, dead. Hope it was impressive! Not crossing the road or an incident with a toaster. I just wanted to say... it's OK. It really is. Jack, you saved me. You showed me all the wonders of the universe and... all those possibilities. And I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Thank you. And Owen, you never knew. I love you. All of you. And... I hope I did good.”
She reached out, and pressed stop, then encoded it into the system.
All ready for what the future would - or in her case wouldn’t - bring.
