Title: In Dreams

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: The Tenth Doctor.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 057: Dream at dw100

Spoilers: Human Nature.

Summary: John Smith is just an ordinary schoolmaster, but when he dreams…

Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.

In John Smith’s dreams, he’s someone else, living an amazing, incredible, unbelievable life full of impossible things. Sometimes when he wakes it seems as if his dreams are the reality and his life as a schoolmaster is the dream

In his dream-life he has two hearts, many faces, a blue box that transports him to distant places, and a whole array of implacable enemies he has to battle. It’s terrifying and exhilarating in equal measures, but sometimes he wishes he could just remain asleep and dreaming.

His life is so ordinary; only in his dreams does he feel truly alive.

The End

But his so distraught when he finds out it's true.:(

Because then he knows he'll have to give up Joan and everything he has in his 'life' to go back to the reality he had thought was a dream. He can't have both and that other reality looks less appealing in the face of what he'll lose.

Thank you.
