After the service, they walked quietly back to the TARDIS, the Doctor slipping his hand into Martha's chilled hand and holding it tight and warm in his own. Their silence was deeper now, closer than it had been before John Smith came into their lives. A silence borne of unconditional trust, friendship and ultimately, of loss.
Loosing her hand from the Doctor's, Martha took out her TARDIS key, the edges so small, ordinary and familiar after months of running her fingers across their uneven plane in remembrance of her previous life. She unlocked the door and went inside, pausing to look back at her friend, who still lingered at the door.
The Doctor stood on the threshold, looking in quiet wonder at the beautiful, impossible space before him. "It really is bigger on the inside," he said wistfully, and smiled softly at Martha. "I get that now."
