[A weight is lifted off his two hearts, seeing her eyes soften. As seductive as erasing oneβs regret away is, the Doctor doesnβt how deep this spiral goes. A garden of roses is breathtaking, but a thousand thorns are enough to tear one apart. The pain of false hope stings that much.
And yet, the Doctor knows in his heart of hearts that he will bleed over and over to keep her safe.
His feet shuffle closer to her. The touching, again, he doesnβt do well with the touching, but itβs different. Exceptional even when he shows affection towards her. He canβt recall the last time someone has ever made this abrasive-like demeanour melt into a besotted lamb in just ten words.
Both hands reach for hers. Her small hand always radiates such warmth between his long and cold fingers. He raises it, gives the back of her hand a light peck with his lips.]
