She waited five and a half hours in alternate Canary Wharf for him to reappear. She waited five and a half days at Tyler mansion before she gave up looking for an easy way back through, and accepted the offer to join the alternate universe's Torchwood, utilizing the knowledge of aliens she gathered while traveling with the Doctor.
Three months later, she had a dream of the Doctor calling her somewhere, a dream which repeated itself whenever she fell asleep. Despite how mad it seemed, she believed it was really him, and her family and Mickey agreed. The Doctor could work miracles, even when he'd said he couldn't. So she got into her father's jeep, and they drove, following the call for miles and miles, out of the country, across the water, to a rainy beach on Norway.
Rose took the translation 'Bad Wolf Bay' to be encouragement, but when the Doctor arrived, it was only as an image, one brief chance to say goodbye. Forever.
Her heart broke even as the Doctor remained proud of everything she'd done and become. With the knowledge that she'd never see him again, she finally summoned up the courage to admit she loved him, but before the Doctor could return the sentiment, the final gap in the universes closed, and he vanished mid-sentence.
She threw herself into work a week later, when she grew sick of moping about at home doing nothing, but just like all the other times she'd been separated from the Doctor, she didn't give up. She took the project the Preachers--the group Mickey joined as precursor to Torchwood--used to cross the universes when the Daleks and Cybermen tore holes in the walls of the universe, and set about studying and working to find an alternate way to cross back over.
The Dimension Cannon project initially provided a frustrating lack of results. Shortly after her parent's second child, Tony Tyler, was born, the Cannon suddenly started working, though without any guidance controls. At first, Rose took this to be a wonderful thing.
And then the stars in the sky went out. And the other universes she traveled to also had their stars missing or vanishing. One Earth she traveled to, she barely escaped before it simply vanished.
She spent a year and a half searching parallel worlds for the Doctor, working with her Torchwood in her own universe, and the UNIT and Torchwood of their worlds. It was a learning process to find out how to interact with them, and just what she could and couldn't say to worlds whose time ran more slowly than other universes she'd traveled to. In the end, she learned never to say more than she had to, even if it meant never giving out her name to anyone, for fear of setting the world off balance.
Her traveling through universes changed from searching for the Doctor for her own benefit to searching for him to warn him of the coming darkness. When she wasn't using the Dimension Cannon to search through worlds for signs of the Doctor, she used it to send distress messages to wherever he might be, or searched the databases of Torchwood and UNIT for answers to what the darkness might be.
At nearly the two year mark, she finally came across a universe where she heard UNIT soldiers talking about 'the Doctor'. When she rushed to where he was, however, she was horrified to find he'd been killed. After so very long searching, she was to late to save even him.
