Primeval drabble: Going For Gold

Title: Going For Gold
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: Stephen Hart, Nick Cutter
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For my Primeval Bingo Card (round 3) prompt: Heat. Thanks go to Fred for the beta, cheers m'dear.


Stephen took a deep, calming breath and heard the noise from the watching crowd fade as his world narrowed to the scope and his target.

He could do this. No, he would do this.

His finger gently squeezed the trigger and he watched the target through the scope, only relaxing when he realised he'd hit the centre.

He slowly straightened and sought Nick's gaze, seeing the pride in his lover's eyes. Stephen grinned back as he propelled his wheelchair away from the firing line. Knowing he'd done it, he was through to the next heat and in line for gold.

*bows* Stephen wrote it... and I think it could be a fixit for 2.7.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks. It was supposed to be the Olympics and then Stephen made it the Para-Olympics. I took it as a fixit for 2.7 ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

That's exactly how I read it.
It was really a good take on 2.7.
Consequences from his actions, but not complete disaster. :D

*nods* Precisely.

Oh, fascinating twist! Yay for Nick and Stephen having sorted themselves out and getting on with their lives together!

Stephen wrote that twist, so it is now a 2.7 fixit. The boys had to sort themselves out after that near miss.

Thanks for reading.

That was a splendidly left-field gut-punch at the end.

*bows* Good to know it worked, even if it wasn't planned ;)

Thanks for reading and for looking it over.

Ooh, killer ending! But good for Stephen going for gold :-D

Thanks, my muse got angsty and decided on a 2.7 fixit.

Thanks for reading.
