Chapter 1
Today was the day. The day that Karen and Arthur were leaving the set of Doctor Who. Matt was really going to miss them both, but there was a feeling he had that he couldn't quite understand.
He was in on a surprise today with the crew. The Doctor Who family- as they liked to call it- was throwing a surprise party after they filmed the last scene with doctor and the ponds.
Matt was feeling a little nervous during filming. He messed up a couple of his lines, wasn't getting the timing right, and kept making jokes with Karen. Although he was glad to be making jokes with Karen on set because that will never happen again. Of course they will be keeping in contact, but it won't be the same as seeing her almost everyday. He's going to miss that.
"Karen, I am going to miss you so so so so much," he's been saying that all day.
"Ugh, I'll miss you too! It's going to be so different not seeing you and your weirdness everyday," she smiled. "We should go out after this and eat dinner. Arthur should come, too."
"That's a good idea. You can pick the place," Matt exclaimed.
He was actually very excited, as he usually is. Matt gets excited easily. He knew that soon the surprise party was going to happen, and then after that they are going out to eat. What an eventful day. After a little more filming, it was finally the end of the day.
He told Karen and Arthur to come into the room where the party was taking place.
"Why are we going in here?" Karen kept complaining playfully.
"Because, I like this room," Matt said as if it was obvious.
He opened the door and lead Arthur and Karen both inside. Matt saw a huge smile go across Karen's face. Arthur on the other side of her laughing.
"What is all this?" She asked cheerfully.
"Surprise!" Matt exclaimed.
Karen turned around and gave Matt a huge hug and thanked everyone else. Matt was blushing but didn't let Karen get out of his arms. Her hugs were warm and Matt knew he wasn't going to receive one for a long while.
"Let's cut the cake," Arthur suggested. No one hesitated to agree.
The cake was in the shape of eleven's sonic screwdriver. Matt noticed that Karen got the piece with the most icing. It was the tip of the screwdriver.
"Do you need more icing?" Matt teased.
"As a matter of fact I do," she said back. Then she took her finger and stole icing from Matt's cake.
Matt gave her a playful bump. "So have you decided where you want us to go to dinner?" He asked.
"Yep, it's at a grill named S&D's. Apparently their steak is delicious. I know how much you like steak," Karen explained.
"Sounds great," Matt smiled. He did like his steak.

It was seven o'clock and Karen was eager to get to the restaurant. Arthur was picking her up and they were going to meet Matt there.
She was wearing a red silk dress that fit her just right. Her shoes were not anything special just flats because she was the most clumsy person alive. Karen was very uncoordinated, it would be a nightmare in high heels. Her hair was a settle fire, not too out of hand. And she had that smokey eye make-up she loved so much.
