Drabble (9/22): Clean Break
To those new friends who've joined through the recent friending meme: Hi!
If you're wondering what's going on here, I took a list of Doctors and companions, had the computer shuffle it, and now I'm posting one drabble a day for each pairing that resulted. So far they've run the gamut from 'made for each other' to 'Nooooo', so let's see how today's came out:
Making sure Rose was sleeping soundly, Victoria slipped out of their shared bed.
She should have noticed the signs earlier, she supposed. She'd been trying to convince herself for far too long that she'd been worrying about nothing. Perhaps it was lucky that Rose had talked in her sleep. If not, Victoria might have stayed with her until the inevitable cataclysm.
A girl who dreamed about the TARDIS- who'd whispered the word 'Doctor' in that tone- could bring nothing to Victoria but disaster.
With the greatest haste compatible with silence, she dressed, crept downstairs, and walked out of Rose's life.
