Hazel eyes flickering along the script, eyes lingered on one name, River Song. Matt smith had watched the episode of Doctor Who where River had died, so this defiantly struck up some curiosity.

"Matt, would you come here a minute?" Shouted Moffat from the door.

"sure" said Matt, snapping back to reality. He got up sluggishly, a little annoyed that Moffat had interrupted his train of thought.

"This, Matt, is Alex Kingston, Alex, this is Matt, as I'm sure you know."

Matt looked up, a mixture of curiosity and nerves bubbling inside of him. Alex was a very talented and beautiful actress, who had done many fantastic things. He, on the other hand, had only done a couple of things, Doctor Who the only one anybody knew about.

"Nice to meet you Matt" said Alex, extending a hand.

"you amazing, I mean at acting, your part as river, I mean you died, I mean River died, b-but your here and..." Matt rambled on like a nervous school boy asking the prettiest girl at school out.

Alex chuckled and said "a simple 'hello' would have done."

Matt peered up blushing, relived to see Alex was smiling.

In spite of him self, he smiled and muttered "sorry, I'm not good at introductions." He took Alex's hand and shook it. The physical touch send shivers down his spine.

"Don't worry, I'm as confused as you, that Steven Moffat..." She tailed off, now thinking about the beautiful colour of Matt's eyes. She shook the thought from her head and looked down, realising she was staring. No, don't be stupid, your nearly twenty years older than him.

Matt didn't know what to think. He normally wasn't this nervous, even if he did ramble on sometimes, but there was something different about Alex. A kind of radiance that make his head spin. There was silence between them for a while, not an awkward one though, just a space where both of them were thinking.

"Alex, your needed in hair and make-up!" Shouted Steven.

"Got to go" said Alex, slightly disaponted as she was quite enjoying Matt's company, even if they weren't speaking.

"See you later, Kingston" said Matt, watching the way her hips swung as she walked.

'Kingston...' Alex thought, 'I like that...'

As she walked away, Matt turned around and found himself face to face with Steven.

"Ah, Matt!" He said brightly, "Nearly ready to film the next scene?"

"Yeah, I'll just be a minute." Then a cheeky and brilliant idea dawned on him "oh, and Moffat, I had an idea for the scene." He chuckled "what if instead of River just flying into the Tardis, she lands on top of The Doctor?"

A wide grin spread across Steven's face and said "That's brilliant Matt! I'll put it in the script now!"

-xXx-

"Oh, I really hate Moffat!" Grumbled Alex to Matt, as she was being hoisted onto the ropes that later would send her flying into Matt.

"whatever for?" Said Matt, shooting a cheeky grin at her.

"you know what I mean." Said Alex, trying to look annoyed but failing miserably as her and Matt both broke out into fits of giggles.

"actually," said Matt turning to look Alex in the face "I thought it was rather brilliant, as I was the one who came up with it"

"You didn't!" Exclaimed Alex hitting Matt on the arm.

"Oh but I did Miss Kingston" said Matt, smiling widely at the look of disdain on her face.

"I think your ready to go" said the director, braking up their conversation.

"Well, let's get to it then!" Said Matt cheerily.

Alex sent Matt one more disapproving look before smiling and sending him a wink.

"ACTION!" The director yelled and Alex was flung at Matt. She landed with a thump and both of them immediately burst out laughing, all lines forgotten.

"Cut" the director said, also laughing, as were most of the crew.

"Oooooo, that hurt!" Said Matt shakily, still chuckling slightly.

"Oh I'm so sorry!" Exclaimed Alex, hugging Matt and moving off him

"It's OK, Kingston" said Matt, still sounding flirtatious despite the pain.

"Back to starting positions everyone!" Shouted the director as Matt stood up and Alex was hoisted back to her starting position.

-xXx-

After a a few more takes, a whole lot of laughter and a couple of unwanted knees, they finally finished and Matt caught Alex up in the car park.

"Kingston!" Said Matt, feeling nervous about what he was about to ask. " would you like to get coffee sometime?"

"Are you asking me on a date Mr Smith?" Asked Alex jokingly.

"God no! Oh, I didn't mean it in that way, I mean I would take you on a date, b-but... I mean... Just as friends..." He finished in a small voice.

"I was joking Matt!" Said Alex laughing. "I would love to."

"Oh good" said Matt relived. "How about tomorrow at about three-ish?"

"Sorry, I have my daughter with me tomorrow, but I could do Wednesday?" She said.

"I can't do any other day this week, but your daughter could come with us if she would like to?" Asked Matt hopefully.

"I guess that would be OK" said Alex, thinking Salome would rather enjoy going out "Is Four alright, only I've got to pick Salome up from school."

"That's perfect" said Matt, rather pleased with himself. "See you tomorrow then"

"Bye" said Alex, turning and waving. And for some odd reason, she felt sad that Matt had to go.
