after canary wharf, the Doctor had thought he had lost Rose Tyler.

So, why is she standing across from him in the TARDIS?

“If I touch you, will you disappear?”

In response, she walks closer, and places a hand on his cheek, cupping his face in a way that makes him lose his breath. He squeezes his eyes shut, wills all his senses to concentrate on that one point of contact alone. She’s warm and human and Rose, just as he remembers but at the same time she isn’t. A tear slips and escapes down from his closed eyes, and she brings up another hand to brush it away. His own stay on his sides, clenched in fists, useless and heavy as lead.

“I will stay as long as you need me to stay.”
