rsadelleWelcome to December! For those of you who are new around here, I use December to post all of my Never Finished Fic (think WIP Amnesty with a different name) from this year, and to clean up and post anything that just needs a little bit of editing.
This was originally going to be for an![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
anon_lovefest prompt: "Gabe/Victoria, on-stage shenanigans." I had vague ideas about using a lyric from Gym Class Heroes' "Seven Weeks" as a title, but then I got stuck on what would happen next. It also seemed like it would need more than seven weeks, and the sections were uneven. I never did decide which song should be the song for the specific bit, so you get just my bracketed placeholder.
*
Week One
Victoria's used to the dancing bit they do for "Guilty Pleasure," and the elaborate bows they make to each other. The first week of this tour, Gabe catches her hand at the end of it and brushes a kiss across her knuckles before he struts back to the center of the stage.
*
Week Two
The kissing of her hand stays, and with every show, it becomes easier, more practiced.
The second week of tour, Gabe kneels at her feet. He does that fairly often, but this time he slides his hand up the inside of her leg from her ankle to the bottom of her skirt.
Victoria's too startled to do anything more than look down at him. He flashes her a grin and gets up.
"The romance is gone," Ryland laments after the show. "Gabe never feels me up on stage anymore."
Gabe smirks across the dressing room at Victoria. Because he's Gabe, she figures out he's playing some kind of game.
*
Week Three
The third week of tour, Victoria ups the ante. Gabe kneels at her feet and runs his hand up her leg. Instead of just playing at him and letting him get up, she steps in closer, her foot between his knees, almost but not quite touching him, and she looks down at him until he gets over his shock - it doesn't take long - and stands up.
*
Week Four
Gabe sings a verse of "[SONG]" while standing behind Victoria, one arm around her waist, his hand hidden from the crowd by her keytar. She's wearing a skirt and top instead of a dress, and his thumb slips under her waistband, strokes across her skin for the full length of the verse.
*
Week Five
Gabe kneels, and before he can touch her, Victoria steps closer, her feet on the outside of his legs this time. He has to lean back to keep looking up at her instead of getting his face buried in the folds of her dress.
*
Week Six
Victoria's wearing a dress, which means Gabe can't get to her skin this time. Instead, he slides his hand up her stomach, in clear view of the audience, and stops just below her breasts.
