Part One
Their flat had central heating, but even at night, Clara found herself curling against his side to keep warm. The Doctor usually slept flat on his back with his limbs completely stretched out, save for the one arm raised over his head. It was always the arm closest to her, and Clara liked to think that even in his sleep, he was inviting her curl up beside him. The best moments were when she’d settle against him with her head on his chest and he would his arm wrap around her shoulders while still asleep. They often drifted apart before they woke up in the morning, but Clara lived for those moments in the night when they would find each other and settle into each other’s warmth.
Clara awoke alone that morning, and even though the Doctor was often out of bed before she was, she had this sinking feeling that something was wrong.
