Okay so I cheated, this is ISPIRED by the challenge. And I took liberties by going ONE WORD over the limit! Rebelling
Eyes sparkling, Ginevra danced on the stage, her head dropping to the beat as her bow zipped over strings, quick and easy. Her eyes closed as she let blood-red curls spill free down her back. Skipping down the steps, her hands gracefully played across, over the violin. Her simple, yet modest, sparkling emerald dress molded perfectly to her curves, spaghetti straps criss-crossed over her otherwise bare back, making her fair skin shine like porcelain. As she finished, a light and easy tune picked up on her own melody and started up a fast paced duet.
The keys gleamed in the darkness as Draco watched her skip over, her eyes closed, lost in the music. His long slender hands flew with practiced grace and precision over the long, grand piano. He let a soft smirk grace his lips, platinum hair falling into burning slate eyes as he watched the audience sway in time. His black tuxedo was tailored perfectly and fit his lean, tall frame. His angular face was not quite handsome, but striking. He radiated power and elegance. His hands paused, letting Ginny finish. They both stopped in time with each other.
Clapping could be heard from the middle of the Manor auditorium. A young boy, barely age ten watched in fascination as his mother came to life, dancing gracefully up and down the gleaming planks. His father held a rare smile, playing easily and almost lovingly. The boy's mercury eyes matched his father's as he watched with longing, wanting to run his own delicate fingers over the black and white keys. The man sitting next to him, with ivory skin and dark black hair, clapped, smirking slightly.
One day... A soft glow caught his eye, as a beautiful sapphire necklace hung from a silver chain, glittering in the soft light.
My Response to the DG Forum OSS Thread Challenge!
The OSS Drabble Challenge, Round 3
Peruse the OSS Thread and find an already existing sentence that strikes your fancy, then either expand the sentence (so that it is a part of your drabble) or write a prequel or a sequel to the sentence.
Include the original sentence and its author when you post your drabble - give credit where due. You do not need to include the three word prompt for the sentence.
Guidelines:
Like the OSS, drabbles should be D/G centric
Do not exceed 300 words, excluding the original sentence. As the Ravenclaw HOH, I will make you edit.
You may post more than one drabble.
You may use a sentence that someone else has already used.
You may use one of your own sentences.
You have until April 30 to post.
Exactly 301 words! Not my best but…
BeatTheStatic: sparkle, simple, necklace
