He can yell at her until he’s blue in the face for all she cares. He can beat himself up and do all kinds of things to try to get through to her. She won’t budge. Not in the slightest.
No matter what, she will stick by her belief that what she is doing is right. She should be here. She should be with him, her own safety be damned. She doesn’t care about staying safe when the only way for that to happen is for her to be without him.
She won’t leave him to fend on his own without putting up a hell of a fight and she knows him well enough that she can get under his skin and needle her way into each and every cell of his body like he has done to her.
She won’t let him wipe her memory and destroy that.
She pushes him back, hard, before he can begin the process of erasing each and every thought of the times they shared from her mind. She doesn’t react to the shock in his brown depths having expected no less from him.
As independent as the Time Lord likes to make out he is, she knows he really does have feelings and the need for companionship. For the past stretch of his life she has been it and she fully intends on pulling that due date further out from them so they can spend eternity forever as they had on a few occasions discussed.
That’s how it’s meant to be. She’s not supposed to end up back at home with her mother, thinking she’d lost an entire year and not having the slightest clue what happened to it.
No. Even if it kills her, she’ll not let him. She won’t let him wipe her memories.
She won’t.
That’s an option she fears would be worse than death.
