Oasis of Time

The Pharaoh stayed by the river, watching the merchants pass by and he laid back in the sand of the small beach, soaking up the sun and letting it dry him.

Amelia laid on the bed naked, yawning as she started to fall asleep.

Tutankhamun sighed, his thoughts drifting back to Amelia and he tried to figure out why she was really so hesitant to be with him. Was it really that big of a deal in her time if he ended up with child? Her father should be happy that there is a continuation to the family; why would the man disown his daughter for it? He shook his head. Then again, fathers in this time had similar views. Was it only him that didn't see much of a problem with it? He sighed and sat up. Looking out at the Nile again, he got to his feet and after dusting himself off, he headed back to the palace.

Amelia fell into a deep sleep, hugging the pillow.

The Pharaoh paused by her room, checking on her and he sighed, seeing her asleep. He walked in and placed the light blanket over her naked form.

Amelia grabbed onto his hand as she slept, not letting it go.

Tutankhamun gasped softly and frowned, staring at her quietly and he lightly tried to get his hand free.

Amelia hugged his arm instead of the pillow now.

The Pharaoh sighed and managed to lay down beside her, watching her quietly.

Amelia snuggled close to him, the light cloth coming off to show off her body.

Tutankhamun sighed and leaned over, kissing her cheek. "I wish I could keep you," he whispered to her.

Amelia mumbled his name in her sleep but of course she said it wrong since it was a mouthful for her.

Tutankhamun smiled faintly and sighed, watching her sleep. She was so beautiful; far more so than any woman he had ever seen. If it were up to him, he would keep her for the rest of eternity, but he knew that wouldn't be possible. The day was growing ever nearer.

Amelia woke several hours later feeling refreshed.

Tutankhamun was lying on the bed with her, an arm tucked up under his head. He was awake and staring up at the ceiling, looking as if he were deep in thought.

Amelia blushed, wondering if she should break his concentration or not but she REALLY had to go pee. Since she had no other choice she bolted for the bathroom to relieve herself.

The Pharaoh blinked and looked over at her, arching an eyebrow. He remained lying in bed and frowned faintly before returning to look at the ceiling.

Amelia relieved herself, feeling much better then blinked, counting how long she'd been there for.

When she finally came back, Tutankhamun looked over at her. "Feeling better?" he asked softly.

"much" Amelia said, sitting on the bed.

The male smiled and nodded. "How was your nap?" he asked.

"Very good, i feel completely refreshed....do you know how long i've been here?" Amelia asked, wanting to make sure her numbers were correct.

"Here as in this era?" Tutankhamun asked. "As far as I know, only a few days."

"Alright" Amelia said, thinking that perhaps she was over thinking.

Tutankhamun looked over at her. "Why do you ask?" he asked.
