#thoughts and processes

I don't claim to know what true romantic love is, but you are the closest I've ever come to it if I ever did.

The six months before the Doctor came back were some of the hardest months of her life. Looking back on it now, Amy still can't believe what she had almost done, what Mels had saved her from doing. The experience brought them closer. Amy still hasn't told the Doctor or Rory what happened and she doesn't plan to tell them ever.

Amy doesn't like eating broccoli. She has never liked broccoli. She feels like broccoli is just a vegetable that wanted to be a tree but never could and it makes her sad so she doesn't eat it.

Amy can cook, though not as good as Rory can. When they were growing up Amy didn’t really care about mundane things like cooking, not when she had her raggedy doctor’s promise to take her away. About six months before he appeared again, Amy went through something and realised that she had to grow up because he was never coming back. That was when she first started paying attention to Rory’s cooking whenever he came over.

Amy has all of the old drawings and toys of her doctor in the corner of a closet in her flat in London. Sometimes, if she's had a little bit too much wine, she'll take out the box and remember everything again.
