Chapter Text
Jackie Tyler is by no means a stupid woman.
She isn't academically gifted, but her knowledge of people has served her well during her life.
Rose is her world, and as much as she wants her daughter to be everything she herself could never be, she wants to keep her safe and protected.
The Doctor was a direct threat to her Rose's safety. She knows that. She's seen it in action. But during Rose's association with the infuriating man, Jackie has seen her girl blossom into a strong minded woman with drive. And she is so immensely proud of this woman that her daughter has become. And begrudgingly, she will credit part of this change in her daughter to the Doctor.
But somewhere in her heart, she knows this can't last. One of these days, Rose is going to step into that blue box, and she won't see her again.
And Rose will never leave the Doctor. Jackie knows that Rose has fallen in love with him.
All she can do know is eye the lanky alien each time, imploring him to bring her daughter back to her again.
