Primeval drabble: Nothing Comes Close

Title: Nothing Comes Close

Author: knitekat

Word Count: 100

Characters: James Lester/Stephanie (OC)

Rating: 12

Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.

A/N: For the P100 Challenge 197 prompt These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things. Part of my Dreams of Yesterday series (starts here). And look, no angst! Thanks go to Fred for looking at this for me.



James smiled as they ran barefoot, hand-in-hand through the grass. As she tugged him up a slight rise, his breath caught at the view over unspoiled countryside. “I love this place, James. I want to raise our family here.”

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. “It's lovely.”

Steff pulled free and ruffled his hair. She took off, yelling over her shoulder, “Race you back to the picnic.”

James smiled before chasing after her. Oh, a fine wine and excellent food might make his list of favourite things, but nothing came close to Stephanie.

i enjoy this drabble very much.

Knowing what happens later makes this even more poignant.
