Chapter 9: "Happy Birthday"

"Good Morning Kathlynian!"

Kathlynian awoke to The Doctor kneeling beside her bed with a huge smile upon his face and his eyes shining brightly.

"Guess what today is?" He said.

"Earth day?" She asked.

"Nope."

"President's day?"

"Guess again!"

"The start of the French Revolution? Oh! Let's have a viva la France party! We can watch Les Miserables and eat baguettes!" She said excitedly.

"Absolutely not. I am not watching that volatile movie again. Too many deaths." He said stiffly. "Besides, that isn't right either."

"I give up." She sighed.

"It's your birthday!" He said clapping his hands.

"Oh yeah. 1418. It's been a while since I've celebrated my actual birthday, not a random earth day my mum chose." She said, chuckling quietly. "How did you even know?"

"Sexy knows everything." He smiled, opening his arms out for emphasis.

"Well thanks, Sexy." Kathlynian said, looking at the ceiling.

"She's not in the ceiling, Kathlynian."

"Oh, I know." She said, taking her pillow and hitting him in the head.

"Hey! I was just correcting you!" He protested.

She hit him again, and smirked proudly. "Don't correct a woman before lunch."


The Doctor and Kathlynian had spent their day doing Kathlynian's very favourite things. They went swimming, and attempted to bake a cake, but Kathlynian's cooking skills were all gobbity gook, and The Doctor's weren't necessarily that great either.

Kathlynian coughed as she dried to fan away the smoke from the oven. "I think we did something wrong."

The Doctor pulled out the pan, full of black charred bits of what was supposed to be cake. "Yes, I believe so…"

"Let's throw it at Hitler." Kathlynian suggested.

The Doctor smirked. "Yes… Let's go throw it at Hitler."


"I got you a present." The Doctor smiled.

"Oh, please no." Kathlynian said with a blush.

He thrust a small bow towards her. "Open"

"No, please, you really didn't have to." She insisted.

"Open it Kathlynian!" He said excitedly.

"I'm worried." She whined.

"Smart girl."

She undid the bow, and pulled off the top. "It's a necklace?"

"TARDIS key." He said, taking the key and slipping the chain over her head. "It's about time."

She smiled. "I was terribly worried that's what it would be."

"Is it a bad thing?" He asked, his eyebrows furrowed together.

"Oh, most certainly."

The Doctor was hurt. "wh.. why?"

Kathlynian smirked. "Because it means I'm stuck with you." The Doctor let out a relieved sigh. "But most importantly, you're stuck with me."


"Ice cream time!" The Doctor announced taking some ice cream out of the freezer. "It's Java Mocha Chocolate Chip Frappe Brownie lots of Coffee and Chocolate and too much Caffeine flavoured"

Kathlynian laughed. "My favourite."

He brought either ice cream over to the table, opened it, and positioned it in between them.

"No spoons?" She asked.

"Nope." He smiled, using his fingers to scoop the first bit.

"Just like I like it." She smiled, taking a bit herself.

"Open up." The Doctor said with a quirky smile, scooping some in his hand.

She opened her mouth, and he fed the ice cream too her. She closed her lips around the tips of his fingers, and she could hear the Doctor's sudden jump in breathing. She blushed, and smiled sweetly.

"Your turn." She said, taking some in her hands, but the TARDIS suddenly lurched sideways, and the ice cream meant for his mouth, ended up splattered across his cheek.

She gasped. "Oh no..."

"Oh, Katherine Poppy, you're going to get it!" He chuckled, smearing some ice cream across her face, covering both her cheeks and her mouth.

A few minutes later, they were laying next to each other on the kitchen floor, covered in ice cream from head to toe, fingers intertwined, and foreheads pressed together. Kathlynian leaned into him, kissing him slowly.

"Is this all we do?" She asked. "Snog, and eat ice cream with our hands?"

He kissed her back, taking in the taste of chocolate, coffee, and Kathlynian. "Mostly."

"Well I'm certainly not complaining." She said kissing him softly, then more eagerly. He pressed his palms to the sides of her face, as her hands made their way to his scruffy hair.

"I'm so glad I found you." She whispered in between kisses.

She felt him smile against her lips. "I absolutely and entirely fancy you, Katherine Poppy."

"And I most definitely adore you, Doctor."
