The Doctor looks up, but it doesn't last long. These stars? This moment? He's seen it all before. Each time they've been here, and more than once, the stars always twinkle and shine. But she? She always shines brighter still.

His gaze turns away. Away from the stars and towards her. She never notices it, of course, never has. Always looking at those stars, never seeing how his gaze falls and his hearts seem a little tighter in hi chest.

"It's beautiful," he says. A whisper, as he looks at her.
