The Sweet Science
Title: The Sweet Science
Fandom: The Devil Wears Prada
Rating: PG-13
Pairings/Characters: Miranda/Andy, Lily, Doug, Erica Evans, Kate Beckett
Prompt: Written for shesgottaread for the help_japan auction. Her prompt was that the story include Lily and that Miranda is working out at an old-school boxing gym, where Andy discovers her.
Summary: It was only as she passed the ring and the woman moved just so that the light caught on her hair that Andy stopped dead in her tracks. The light caught on silver hair, hair that Andy would know anywhere - even if it was in a boxing gym.
Spoilers: Everything's fair game
Word Count: 8,374
Disclaimer: I do not own The Devil Wears Prada, any of its characters, or either of the other two characters I borrowed from other fandoms to use in this fic. Please don't sue.
Author's Note: As I said, this is a very, very late response to shesgottaread's generosity at the help_japan auction. I knew very little about boxing going into this but I think I've managed to convey the basics with much help from the internet and damelola, who also served as my beta. The title is taken from a quote by Pierce Egan which has gone on to become a common description of the sport in boxing circles.
Nigel's words kept ringing in her ears, but Andy couldn't help but think that a million girls might kill to be Miranda's assistant, but a billion people would kill to be in her place right now.
