Work Text:

Sorrow

As the Doctor faded into thin air, Rose clutched her mother like a drowning woman clutches a life preserver, wondering if one could cry out every single tear she had left in her.

As one dimension hop after another failed, Rose sadly learned she had many tears left to shed.

*******
Joy

As the Doctor collapsed against her in what was now their bed, Rose suddenly burst into tears.

He looked concerned and confused, hoping that she didn't regret their lovemaking.

She shook her head, cupping his cheek tenderly. “No...m’fine, love. It's just….forever can start now, can't it?”
