Narrative:

After clearing runway 7R we were cleared to taxi charlie, foxtrot. This clearance was repeated once again while proceeding east on taxiway C. Approaching runway 7L all outside lights were turned on and visual inspection was made to the right and left prior to crossing. At approximately half way across the runway I heard the controller tell an aircraft to 'line up and wait' runway 7L. I did observe an aircraft leave the taxiway and proceed to the approach end of runway 7L with a nose gear light illuminated. After clearing the runway, the controller asked us 'who gave us clearance to cross?' after a very short discussion, we changed to taxiway.
