Narrative:
ATC facility: dfw tower, east side. Location: taxiway ek short of runway 35L. After landing on runway 35C, we were given clearance to cross runway 35L on taxiway ek. Also to expedite with aircraft holding for takeoff until we crossed. As we approached, I noticed aircraft in position for takeoff with landing lights on, and he appeared to be rolling. We immediately stopped short of runway 35L as the aircraft that was supposed to be holding rotated in front of our aircraft.
