I lied to him.

Because he sounded so certain that I would not see him again.

Because he has two hearts, and I have only the one, and maybe together they can't make anything that lasts.

Because however much it hurts, it's better this way than left behind in Aberdeen.

I lied to him.

Though she's the real reason I sought out Torchwood.

Though if she survives, she might be more like her father than me.

And if she is immortal, forever might be just enough time for her to find him and tell him that he is not alone.
