Title: Surprise
Pairing: Dudley/Gabrielle
Prompt: Glisten
She was beautiful; wearing an all-white sundress, her silvery-blonde hair reflecting the light, and standing calmly amongst a crowd of people all looking varying degrees of harassed as they rushed to their destinations. She was beautiful, and she knew it. So did he.
He tried to bring as little attention to himself as possible as he approached her from behind, encircling his arms around her waist and drawing her to his chest. It didn't come as much of a surprise to him that she was unfazed.
"I 'ave been waiting," she said without even turning to look at him, her accent affecting her pronunciation slightly in a way that he secretly loved, "a very long time."
"I know. I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you." He spun her around gently and kissed her, running his fingers through her hair, whispering softly into her ear:
"Happy Valentine's Day."
