Ok so this is my first Yu-Gi-Oh fic. I hope u like it!!!! (Oh by the way I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh...sadley)

Golden brown, Brilliant Blue and a wonderful green. These are the colors most seen, this was Egypt. But today there were more amazing colors all around, and all over you could hear people celebrating and enjoying themselves. This was a holiday because today was the 18th birthday of Prince Atem, Pharaoh of Egypt.

The palace shown with a special regal-ness today. In the throne room many of the Prince's friends assembled to share in the happy occasion and also to watch some entertainment. The harem girls, easily the 4 most well known girls in Egypt. Layla the oldest was 19 years old and had been a dancer for longer than any of the other girls. Kiya was 18 years old and was a dancer for 5 years now. Ifenanu was 17 and had been a dancer for 4 years, and then there was Tara she was also 17 years old and had been a dancer for 4 years. She had known Ifenanu since they were kids. They were best friends and did everything together!

The girls danced gracefully around the room as the prince talked with his guests and watched. There beautiful outfits sparkled with the sun that was coming through the balconies and open doors. Each of the girls wore the same outfits today because it was a celebration, There tops were gold with gems all over them to make them shine. There skirts were red went all the way down to the floor and swung with the girls as they danced. They each held 2 long black scarf's in each hand and swung them as they danced. The prince's outfit matched the colors of the girls outfits. He wore a gold top with large gold necklaces hung around his neck, a blood red skirt that reached to his knees with a black stripe down the middle; He also wore a black cape that was tied around his neck. With music playing and people talking and laughing anyone who walked by the palace knew that today was a special day,

except for Tara and Prince Atem. The two had been in love since the moment they met but they were lucky if they saw each other once a month. Even though Tara lived right next to the palace she was not allowed to see the Prince because of the rules, 'The prince was only allowed to be romantically involved with a girl of the same status as him' and since Tara was only a middle class citizen and the Prince was obviously upper class they were not allowed to see each other.

But that didn't stop them, The Prince would take evening walks outside of the palace and Tara would join him they would walk as far as they could without Atem's guardians getting worried. Today was a problem for them both because now that Atem was 18 he was of proper age to be married. Neither of the 2 wanted this to happen. About 6 months ago Atem had 'proposed' to her wile taking a walk along the Nile.

Flashback

The sun was setting making the sky a beautiful pink and purple color. Tara and Atem walked together along the shore holding hands, it had been silent for the entire walk and Atem was beginning to think something was wrong.

"Tara dear, is there something wrong you haven't said a word all night?" Atem asked with worry in his eyes, he had never seen Tara this quiet usually she talked all night when they went for walks but something was different tonight, Atem could feel tension. Tara sighed and then answered.

"Atem." She said and quickly stopped walking. Atem went a few steps in front and then realized that Tara had stopped so he turned around to face her.

"Atem, I am going to be truthful with you." She said taking his hands.

"That's all I ask." He said placing his hand on her cheek and looking into her sapphire blue eyes.

"Your 18th birthday is in about 5 months right?" she asked looking back

"About yes, why?" he asked looking a bit confused

"Then that means your of proper age to be married do u know what that means?" Atem sighed and sat down on the edge of the Nile dipping his feet in the water, Tara followed.

"Yes I know, Listen Tara I am going to do everything in my power to change this rule because I love you." He said turning to look at her

"I don't want to be married to anyone else because I'll never love them as much as you so for now let's just stay calm and enjoy the time we have together ok." He said placing his hand on her cheek again.

"Your right let's just have fun and enjoy the time we have together." She said placing her hand over his.

"Yes," he said taking his hand off her face and putting it in the cool water

"let's just have fun." He continued and without warning splashed her with the water. Shocked Tara jumped and sat there for a minute staring off into space then she looked at Atem

"That was EXTREAMLEY cold!" she said

"I am sorry, I am sorry, I just couldn't resist." He said pulling her into a hug.

"I know I can't either." She said Atem got a confused look on his face

"What?" he said, still holding Tara. She wasn't going to be splashed and not get him back so she gave him one last squeeze and said

"enjoy you bath!" Then pushed him into the river. He stood up soaked from head to toe.

"Oh you are so getting it now." He said and pulled her in with him. She shrieked.

" NO, THIS IS NOT FUNNY I AM ALL WET NOW!" She yelled. Splashing water on him.

"Oh and I am not?" he said splashing water back.

'NO!" she said splashing him again.

"YES!" he said mimicking her and splashing her back. The battle went on for another few minutes until Atem ran over to her and picked her up.

"NO, NO PUT ME DOWN!!!" she said hitting him on the back playfully.

"Well if you insist." He said sitting her down in the water again splashing her.

"OK, OK PICK ME BACK UP!!!" she said holding her arms out. He went over picked her up and carried her over to shore and sat her down then climbed out himself and sat down next to her.

"Listen Tara I have a question I wanted to ask you but first I would like to go home and get into some…..well, dry cloths." Atem said.

"Yes I know what you mean." Tara said looking at her now completely drenched blue outfit.

"So let's say we go home get..changed , and meet back……say in the rose garden outside the palace.?" He asked.

"Sure, that sounds good." She said standing up, he followed. They walked as close to the palace as they could get together.

"Alright I'll see you in a little wile." He said giving her a hug.

"Ok." She said returning the hug. They separated and looked into each other's eyes.

"I love you Tara." He said looking into her eyes.

"I love you too Atem." She said looking into his eyes. They gave each other a kiss and went there separate ways. Tara returned to the house that her and her friend Ifernanu shared

Atem returned to the palace to change and retrieve the small box that sat on his bed.
