007:Waiting in the Wings

Title: Waiting in the Wings
Author:[livejournal.com profile] smurfyfredels
Rating:PG
Word Count:100
Prompt: 007: Free for all
Characters/Pairing: Stephan/ballerina (poor Summer, her character didn't have a name as far as I know. Safe to say Joss made it up to her, huh?)



He had been watching her for weeks. He had never seen anyone so beautiful, so graceful as the lead ballerina as she practiced her turns. She was Kurscov’s favorite, and Stephan knew he was treading on thin ice if he wanted to keep his job.

There were rumors that Kurscov was some sort of sorcerer, that he had made some dark deal with the devil himself. Stephan never put much stock into the gossip of others, but if the rumors were true, he couldn‘t blame him.

A girl like that was definitely worth going to the pits of hell for.

Very well done. I love this behind the scenes look at the beginning of this couple's relationship. And the last line is fantastic.

I'm glad you liked it! I LOVE Summer as well, and go to cons but unfortunately I haven't met her yet. See, now you have me slightly jealous.

THIS story, right here, is why I love this Free For All prompt. I would have never thought to write or read a fic with these characters but it just rings so true, even in so many few words. You picked a great trio of minor characters to look into. Brava!

Thanks so much! I really liked writing this, as I've always loved that episode so I'm glad this prompt gave me an excuse to write about these guys!
