In a galaxy far far away, by chance, Clara and Bill meet. Because it's a big universe, but sometimes the right people just find each other.
“The Doctor has always had an eye for the pretty girls, hasn't he?” Bill said, playful.
Heather grabbed Bill's hand and held it tight. “Oh, don't start,” she scolded her jokingly.
“Don't worry, Bill.” Clara winked at her. “We can have a good flirt later when your girlfriend is not looking.”
“Is that a promise, Clara?” she replied, raising the corner of her mouth.
“For now, just tell me where the Doctor is.” Clara took a deep breath. “I need to see him one last time.”

A/N: Bill's ending, and the similarities with Clara's departure, inspired me to write this fic. Since they're now both not really human anymore, not aging, and travelling in space and time with immortal companions, I think they're bound to meet each other sooner or later, and this is how I imagined their first encounter. Let me know your opinions, thanks.
