1. Move
The Doctor tells her to move away from his bedroom door, but that doesn’t stop him from touching his body to hers as he walks around her, from trailing his fingertips across Rose’s stomach – eyes looking into hers – as he enters the room.
2. Sleep
Jack doesn’t sleep anymore; he fears that he might stop breathing again if he does.
3. Inspire
The Doctor whispers into Hemingway’s ear, and Rose can almost hear the pages being written.
4. Sweat
They’re covered in sweat, glued to each other’s skin, and the TARDIS’ platform is digging into her back the same as the consequences are starting to make themselves known; but Rose can only hide her face in the Doctor’s neck and say, very softly, “We should go to my room before Jack catches us.”
5. Lovely
“It’s lovely,” Jackie tells her, and she tries to make herself believe that the trinket Rose brought her from one of her trips isn’t as hideous as it is.
6. Breathe
In, out, in, out, just like that; breathe for me, Rose, the Doctor whispers into her ear as she sleeps, and the message roots in her brain, etched forever in her subconscious just like he wanted to.
7. Rough
She likes it rough, the Doctor finds after Rose gasps and writhes when he pins her to the bars of the jail they’re currently captive in; and really, he’s no one to complain.
8. Strike
“He’s gone, now,” writes Rose, and then strikes it out; sad endings don’t sell the same.
9. Help
Even with all the heartache, and the longing, and the whole ‘I’m dead in my home planet’ thing; Rose still thinks the Doctor helped her become the woman that she is now, the one that would have withered away in that shop.
10. Resist
Rose tries resisting, tries waiting and hoping and keep her life on pause; and even like that, she still eventually grows used to the feeling of solid ground beneath her feet, instead of a sentient, singing blue box.
11. Meet
“Nice to meet you,” the man at the pub says, and Rose can’t help but compare it to the “Run!” that was what she first thing she ever heard from another, non-human, man.
12. Taut
Right before going to the Olympics, the dreams spell what Rose doesn’t want to hear, doesn’t want to acknowledge – the line growing slack under her feet and the feeling of falling, falling, falling with no safety net to hold her (and then she looses him, and the dreams turn real).
13. Thirst
She wants to see a million planets by his side, wants to see his smile everyday and drink from his ever ending flow of words; she wants, wants, wants, and it’s tearing her apart.
14. All
“I want all of you,” Jack says, and means it in every single way it can be interpreted (and they, they comply, and two mouths move over his body).
15. Fog
“It’s… Foggy.” she finally says, as if not wanting to upset him, and the Doctor just snaps back that some people can’t seem to appreciate the planets he takes them to.
16. Before
Rose classifies her life as Before (before he had showed her a frozen ocean and she had ran for her life with someone holding her hand), and After (after her life went back to normal and she no had longer those precious, thrilling moments of opening the blue doors to a new place); the Doctor’s always been During.
17. Hurt
The Doctor bandages her bleeding finger, and Rose only smiles, because the remains of the singing TARDIS in her head tells her the real injury lays ahead, and her heart is just waiting to be broken.
18. Kind
Sometimes, when Rose sees the Doctor shapes balloons into dogs for children in parks, she things he’s too kind, too noble; but then he’ll be breaking a creature’s neck to save her life, and she’s reminded of how ruthless he can be.
19. Warm
You’re too warm, Rose says as she presses up to him for the first time, leather jacket soft beneath her fingertips, and the Doctor whispers in her ear, that’s alien charm to you, Rose Tyler.
20. Pattern
Jack draws invisible patterns on their backs, while they’re asleep, one night in Rose’s room and the next one in the Doctor; and he thinks he might be getting a bit too attached.
21. Cycle
Life’s an eternal cycle, Rose discovers when another TARDIS parks outside her home in the dirigible filled London; and a new one’s just starting, she decides as she shakes this Doctor’s hand.
22. Glow
He sometimes still dreams of it, the glow beneath her skin that felt too warm to the touch – he sometimes still dreams of it, and when Rose looks up at him, sometimes he can see it too (and it bothers him that it doesn’t frighten him).
23. Zero
The TARDIS, being the TARDIS, gets a bit broken after saying goodbye from Mickey; and as Rose laughs and does pirouettes in the zero gravity, it’s almost as if the blue box was trying to make her feel better.
24. Wonder
Have you ever wondered what is after the stars end? she asks with the wet grass dampening her hoodie, and the Doctor laughs and plays with her fingers and says with a smile, I don’t have to – I’ve already seen it.
25. Scold
“Will you behave now?” The Doctor asks, but Rose holds his tie between her teeth, staring into his eyes (saying no without words), and he looses his train of thought.
26. Figure
Rose glares at him. “Well it’s a figure of speech in Gallifrey,” the Doctor exclaims, and adds with a gesture, “how was I supposed to know it’s an insult in here?”
27. Then
Then: Adrenaline rush, guns to one’s head and a hand covering hers like a protection spell – she feels as if she is sleeping, now.
28. Lie
“Now, I've just got to go and power up the Game Station. Hold on!” he had said with his brightest smile, and now, every time he uses it again, she can’t help but doubt him a little (although she wishes she didn’t).
29. Hunt
The Doctor can’t help but sometimes still feel hunted, as if half of Gallifrey was still looking down on him.
30. Mistake
The Doctor tickles baby Rose, sitting in one of the church’s pews, not wanting to admit what big mistake it had been to bring Rose Tyler aboard the TARDIS (a few months later, when she still smiles at his new face, he realizes it had never been a mistake at all).
31. Birth
It’s a tradition of sorts, the same thing he’s done for Turlough and Harry and Sarah; Jackie screams, and the Doctor smiles as Rose Tyler is born.
32. Cut
The Doctor cuts himself with a bit of glass, and Rose bandages him only to find out whether he bleeds in the same way that she does.
33. Double
Sometimes, in Sarah Jane’s dreams, it’s not only the Doctor the one who holds her – sometimes it’s two of them (and by the next time she encounters him, the number goes up a notch – it’s exhilarating, even if she does feel like a bit of a pervert.)
34. Cover
“Take cover!” Jake yells at him, and Mickey grins, crouching next to a big rock and recharging his gun; he’s never felt as alive as now.
35. Lick
The Doctor licks the door (or the television, chandelier, rocks, fabric or his peanut butter-covered fingers), and Rose feels herself go weak in the knees.
36. Wheel
Some days, when the Doctor spontaneously hugs Rose, and she smiles at him; Jack feels like the third wheel.
37. Slight
There’s something slight and delicate about the way her fingers search for his, the Doctor thinks in the semi-darkness; and then he’s tracing them with his tongue and there’s nothing delicate about the way Rose curves against him.
38. Fling
While on Teres, a planet with soft pink waves, Rose has a fling with one of the locals; and it’s not until she remembers Reinette’s letter, hidden away in some alcove in the TARDIS, that she realizes how much this feels like comeback.
39. Sorry
“I’m sorry,” Mickey says to himself from time to time, sorry Jake that your best friend is dead and I’m all that’s left, sorry grandma that I killed you once, sorry Rose that I couldn’t be what you need.
40. Call
Rose doesn’t change her cell phone number again, even if she knows he’ll never call her again.
41. Jewel
Rose had smiled at him when the Doctor had given her the necklace, but he didn’t tell her it was a tracing device, and now, he can still feel her, a world away.
42. Fruit
The Doctor crushes the grape between his fingers, runs the juicy remains over her body just to see her sigh like that, and this, the way she arches, is something new, even when every single one of her predecessors moaned his name like that.
43. House
Mortgage, she had said, but just the thought of staying on the ground (any planet’s ground), makes him shiver.
44. Swim
Just keep your head above the water, Sarah Jane had once told herself, but too many toothy smiles and that long long scarf she had once tried to steal and she drowns anyway, lets herself fall a bit for the Doctor (and how does she regret it later).
45. Family
The Doctor tries not to think about it much, but some days, the urge is too strong that he has to travel back to the seventies and see her granddaughter play with his great-grandson in some nameless park – Blood is thicker than water, after all.
46. Interest
“Do you see anything of your interest?” he asks the first time she enters his room, and Rose just stares at him, smirk on her face (I think I do, she says hours later, her tongue circling his navel, and it’s a surprise he still knows what she’s talking about).
47. Record
“For the record, Gallifrey was never known for its fashion sense,” he tells Rose as she lifts an eyebrow, one of his old outfits between her hands.
48. Glass
Reinette still thinks of the Doctor every time she sees glass, broken clocks and mirrors and the monsters beneath her bed; but she still keeps her fingertips against the window pane against which she once drank with him, as if trying to touch the memory.
49. Shape
His shape may change, the smile and the phrasing; but deep down, she knows he’s still her replacement for the Big Bad Wolf (not Prince Charming because she’s old enough to know happy endings only exist in stories).
50. Live
He’s told her to live without him twice already. Rose thinks that this time, she should try and listen to him.
(Although the ache is still there).
