Chapter Text
Mistletoe.
"Alex my daughter!" A slightly drunken Karen shouted from the other side of the pub that the BBC had hired out for the night. Alex laughed slightly and her lionmane hair shook.
"Mum." Alex greeted Karen when she made her way over to where the Doctor Who lot were sitting. "I've missed you." Alex told her as they hugged.
"Matt's around somewhere and Arthur just left with his date." Karen told her as they sat and she passed Alex a drink, and by the time Matt had made his way back to the table Karen and Alex were giggling like little girls.
"Neglecting to say hello to your husband Kingston, shame on you." He grinned like a Cheshire cat. Alex, slightly wobbling, stood up and was almost instantly engulfed by Matt.
"Would never neglect you darling." She smiled into his neck.
"Well then Miss Kingston," He pulled away and offered out his hand. "Dance with me?" Alex looked back to Karen who shooed them away. Last Christmas softly played in the background; Alex pressed into Matt who was clinging on to her with his life. After a few more songs Matt noticed that people were staring. "Alex." He muttered into her ear. "Why are they staring?" Alex looked around and it was Karen that pointed it out,
"Kiss her Smith!"
Matt grinned and looked up; they'd been dancing under mistletoe. Not being one to be told twice when it came to kissing Kingston, Matt pulled away and kissed her. Alex's eyes widened but she melted into the kiss. Their first kiss of many.
