"Pearl," Arcturus asked as he attempted to shuffles his hips, but barely got them to budge, "Could you change into your water form? It just feels so nice."

"Ok honey." She said with a yawn before compiling with his favor. She changed into her water form, but there were a few differences to it now. For one her eyes were much brighter and a golden color and her ocean like hair was even longer. Her body was now geared more to maneuvering through water, but it was still cool to the touch.

"You're beautiful." Arcturus smiled as he found the strength to run his hands through her long hair before bringing them behind it and pressing her against himself. "I want to take you even more now, but that can wait. After all, I can barely move. How about we just sleep here with each other until the water is ready?"

Pearl was three steps ahead of him as she found a comfy spot on his chest to drift of on. Within minutes she was soundly asleep.

I guess there's nothing to do but sleep. I really hope that I can still walk...
After a few more minutes of cradling Pearl on his chest, Arcturus too fell asleep.

Forty five minutes had gone by when Rhea finally went to go inspect their room. She gently tugged at Arcturus who was cradling Pearl in his arms, "The bath is ready if you two are."

"I'm ready." Arcturus groaned as he barely let go of Pearl. "But I'm afraid that your sister was a bit too rough. It appears as if I can't move."

Rhea chuckled as she awoke Pearl whose groggy expression quickly shifted into a loving smile upon seeing Arcturus. Rhea then asked her a favor, "You wouldn't mind carrying your husband over to the bath and washing him would you?"
"Of course not!" Pearl picked Arcturus up by the legs and under the back as she took him to a room near the staircase. She set him down on a stool near the warm water as she keeled behind him. "Where should I start?"

"Let's just soak in the water." Arcturus told her weakly as he turned around to face Pearl. "Just lower me into the bath, that's fine. I don't want you to have to clean me because I'm too weak."
Usually the roles are reversed.

She looked confused for a moment before nodding and lowering Arcturus into the warm water. She then lowered herself onto a cozy spot on top of him where she played with the water around her as she snuggled up close to Arcturus.

"Thank you, honey." Arcturus relaxed as Pearl climbed on top of him. "You know, for our first times, I think that went really well. Now, what should we do about it?"
He smiled lightly as he placed his hand around Pearl and squeezed her belly gently.
"You know, our child, when we have one?"

"Well... if it's too much trouble over at Shaldra... I could always come stay with my sisters. But I'll miss you too much! I want our child to know what a kind father it has. Why can't Titus just cover it up, or turn a blind eye while we stay in secret?" Pearl was trying to think of a way to stay together when they returned, but found it hard to do so.

"First of all, I'm not even sure of what he'd think of our marriage." Arcturus tried to explain it to her as he shifted. "But the thing is, keeping a secret like this is much harder than you'd believe. The guards might start rumors when the notice that you're pregnant, or a nobleman might try to get some dirt on Titus by sending a Type-4 to uncover some secrets. We could lie to him and say that you were, well, to say, forced, by those who took you. After all, they think that you've been kidnapped. However, that doesn't stick with my conscience. I do have one way, but it will be incredibly painful and hard for you."

"W-what is it?" Pearl weakly mewed out with a mixture of fear and curiosity.

"I could use my Magick to make you go through the entire pregnancy cycle in a few hours." Arcturus told her as he grabbed a nearby rose petal and caused it to wither as a demonstration. "It will seem like six months to you, but it'll only be a few hours to everyone else. Because of this, you will go hungry for possibly days on end, even if we bring a steady supply of food for you. You will have no one to speak to, no one to share your burden with. I didn't bring this up before because I thought it to inhumane to put you through that kind of torture. Anyways, then, once you enter labor, and after you give birth, I will put you and the child under another time dilating spell, allowing it to grow to maybe a week or two old, so that way we can return home and say that we found it on the streets. How we'll deal with the situation once the child bears noticeable resemblance to ourselves, I do not know."

Pearl's eyes widened before she spoke in a panic, "You know what six months apart doesn't sound that bad. It could be like a get away for me and then you could see the baby when I get back, heh heh?" Pearl awkwardly laughed at the end unsure of how to properly respond.

"The thing is, you can't talk with anyone." Arcturus spoke to her as he rested his head above her breasts. "You'll be completely alone, the world travelling way too slow for you to do anything. A day for you would be a minute to everyone else. I tried something like that on myself, and it was maddening. I don't want you to go through with it."

"Oh no! I was talking about having Mist Valkyrie me back and spending the time here. That spell sounds really painful." Pearl stroked his hair as she breathed in and out until she was calm again.

"I know this is going to sound really selfish of me..." Arcturus sighed as he leaned on Pearl. "But I don't want to be without you for so long, especially since we've just been married. I want to be with you."

"But we can't be together in Shaldra and you can't leave. Maybe if you didn't have to train... what if you go talk to Van Halen? See if he'll remove the curse. Then all of this will be solved and we can just be together here for that time."
