I cried today.
This was when Amelia and Rory were taken by the weeping angels.
Even though it was just rehearsal and all, I am a Whovian.
During rehearsal, Matt had looked up towards me while I sat in the benches of the room. I had to look away, since he just looked, so so so, sad. He was a brilliant actor, but I just couldn't watch. No matter what, when the Doctor's hearts are broken and heavy, my heart is too. After the rehearsal, I wept for a little but wiped away my tears.
Matt had passed the others he usually hung out with to come and see me. "Are you alright, Rosie?" he said once arriving to my side. He put his hand on my back and I started to weep again. Matt held me to his chest and hushed me, "It's okay, it's just a show, you know..." "Not for me," I replied between sobs, "Doctor Who is my life!" Matt laughed and patted my back. Then he took my hand and we head off towards the main set.
"What are you-?"
"Shush," the Doctor said with a silly grin and he pulled me to the stage with the directors and other more popular on stage crew. He was getting closer to Amelia and Rory, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill. "Matt, please don't-" I hissed in a whisper, blushing already. I couldn't meet more actors, I'd just embarrass myself. "It's okay," he whispered back, "They don't bite... well, maybe Karen, but I have you." Matt gave me a wink, and kept his feet walking towards Karen and Arthur who were talking.
"Hey, Matt!" the now dead Rory said, "Who's the little lady?" He winked at me and smiled at me. Naturally, I slightly hid behind Matt, since he was the only one I really knew. I stayed by his side and held on to his arm. But since I know my manners, I smiled back at Arthur. Yet, I did blush. I always had a celebrity crush on Rory, too. And meeting him was so... crazy! Especially, since he's an actor...
Karen, the dead Amelia, nudged the Doctor and teased, "Ooh, a girlfriend, I suppose. Lucky lady," She looked over at me and said, "He's been talking about you since we were getting ready. Rose, is it?" "Rosie, actually," I replied, "We don't need to call me Rose, or you know..." I shook my head towards Matt, "Someone might get emotional." Arthur laughed but Karen looked at me, then Matt with a grim look and then smiled. "Oh my God, Matt! A Whovian?" she cried, then shook her head, "Of course..." "Oh, shimmy shimmy," the Doctor replied with a laugh, "You're a 'Whovian' or whatever, too."
"No."
"Yes."
"Matt, no I'm not. I do like Doctor Who but I'm not obsessed with it."
"Sure, Karen, sure, sure."
As they argued, Arthur and I laughed. I let go of Matt as he was trying to prove himself right, and Arthur came over to me. "So, you are one, aren't you?" he asked. "Yes, I've been watching ever since I was a kid. I used to watch it with my dad." I gave him a small smile. "Ah, what a good dad. He must be the best for you." I nodded, "Yes, he is." I then began to smile weakly. He had to mention Dad. Soon, Karen and Matt were done arguing. And it was my time to go home.
"I don't mean to intrude or anything, but I do have to go," I said and gave Karen and Arthur a smile, "It was so nice meeting you." "It was my honor." Arthur said. "Hope we do get to meet again soon!" Karen cried, happily. "Of course," I said, "Very soon!" Matt said goodbye to Karen and Arthur and left with me.
"You can stay with your friends. I'll be okay." I politely said. "No, no," he replied, "I have to give you my number so we can hang out tonight! I heard it's going to be a nice night out..." I smiled as he handed me a piece of paper. I took it and put it in my jean pockets. "Well, then. I'll see you tonight." I said, awkwardly. I didn't know what to do...
"Yes, tonight. Give me a call around seven-thirty. So I can pick you up at eight?" the Matt Smith replied. Before I could bid him farewell, I was given a hug. He put me to his chest. I put my hands on his back and sighed. This is all too great... It feels like a dream. I thought. I could hear his heart beat, and I never wanted to let go. He was all too much like a teddy-bear. Then, we pulled away. Matt grinned and gave me a peck on the cheek. "See you, tonight!" Matt said, and ran off back to the main stage.
I rubbed my cheek, and I could feel tingles in my stomach.
Oh my Time Lord! I thought. I like the Doctor!
After that, I wanted to faint. I liked the Doctor too much.
Then I thought to myself:
I love the Doctor!
I knew right then and there, that I would have a great time with Matt tonight. I would talk with him, laugh with him, I'd do everything I could do with him. Because it just might have been my only chance, and only "hang out" with him. I was ready.
