Peter and Julia were holding hands as they walked down the cool stone hallway to her room.

"OH...and the flowers, I can't decide between the lilies or the roses. And I told the maids that we wanted white and silver for the reception but now I think maybe it should be white and gold. Oh and don't forget to get your tunic cleaned and ready. OH-"

Peter loved Julia very much and knew how excited she was for their wedding, but all their time had been so wrapped up in it that they hardly enjoyed any relaxing time together for weeks. He knew there were things they needed to discuss...but it could wait until tomorrow. So instead of letting Julia continue her list of things to do, Peter took advantage of her pause in speech, grabbed her by her waist, turned her around and kissed her.

Julia let him kiss her for a few seconds but then pulled back. "Peter...you know we have a lot to get done! The wedding is so soon! Don't you want it to be perfect?" and looked up into his blue eyes.

"Of course I do, sweetheart." he said as he opened the door to her room and closed it behind them, "but we have weeks to get the rest done, and really, even if we decide tonight on these things...they're not going to get relayed to the attendants until tomorrow anyway. So why don't we just.. enjoy this time alone." and he pulled her into another kiss before she could say anything.

Julia' s room was large, with lots of windows, soft area rugs and a big, cherry wood four poster bed with lots of fluffy pillows, and a warm, crackling fireplace lit. Peter picked her up and carried her over to the bed, where he laid her down on her back into the soft mattress and blanket. He leaned down on top of her and kissed her gently, letting his weight onto her slowly.

"Peter, really, your very heavy and I can hardly breathe under here!" She giggled as she said this, and was of course teasing him. Julia was small framed but loved the feel of his body against her. It was so much bigger then hers in every way, but it never felt like it was crushing her, more like it was covering her body like a safety blanket.

Peter rolled her over so she was lying on top of him and kissed her quickly and said, "Well, this is much better then, don't you think?" and smiled as she laid her head against his chest. The two laid like this for a few minutes, Julia's head rising and falling with Peter's breath as he played with her hair.

"This is nice. I can't wait to be able to spend my nights with you, Peter." She said as she leaned over and laid on her side looking at him. He turned onto his side to face her and rested his head on his hand and smiled.

The two had never spent a night together because Julia wanted to save that for after their wedding. It was getting to the point where they'd be up so late making plans for the wedding, though, that Peter would not leave until the wee hours of the morning anyway.

"You know," he said as he ran his fingers down her cheek, along her shoulder and arm and to her leg, "we don't have to wait till then. I could...you know....stay here tonight."

Julia blushed when he said this and felt a tingle in her stomach. She wanted him to stay with her so badly, but felt like it was the wrong thing to do before they were married. They had the discussion many times, but she had held her ground on the topic.

"Peter.." she said and her smile turned into a frown with the battle between her morals and desire.

"Shh, it's fine. Let's just enjoy this rare chance where we be to be alone. Okay?" and he leaned over, kissed her passionately and wrapped his arms around her waist while she wrapped her arms around his neck and the pulled each other in as close as they could.

As Peter kissed her, he held one of his hands at the small of her back, holding her close to him, and let the other run up her spine, to the back of her neck. Julia felt another shower of tingles in her stomach and leaned her head back to let him kiss her neck. Peter loved kissing her soft, smooth skin that smelled like peppermint. Her long hair was in his face while his kisses went from her neck to her shoulder as he slipped the sleeve of her dress down her arm. He continued to kiss her skin on her shoulders, across her collar bone to the other side of her neck. By this time she missed his lips. She placed her hands on his chest and slipped down his body and kissed him, feeling a bulge against her thighs.

"Oh Peter. Really?" and giggled at him smiling.

"I can't help it. You know that." and leaned down to kiss her again, but Julia put her hand against his mouth.

"What's the matter, dear?" he asked, hoping she wouldn't ask him to stop.

"Well...what if someone comes in? Or...sees through my window?" she asked, concerned for her reputation and his.

Peter got up, though he didn't want to move away from her, and put a chair in front of the door, and went to the lights and dimmed them. When he got back to the bed, he pulled the curtains of the posters across so they were all almost completely shut, and got back into bed with his fiancé.

"How's that? Better?" he asked as he crawled over to her, brushed her hair aside and kissed her. She didn't have to answer for him to know it was what she was hinting at.

Peter continued to kiss her lips, her neck, shoulders and collar bone. The collar of her dress wouldn't give any more, and he started unbuttoning it, revealing more and more of her pale skin on her chest. He continued kissing her as he got further down and reached the bottom of the buttons by her waist. Her skin was soft and warm under his lips, and he let his hands push the dress back, feeling around her small ribs to her back. He then kissed up her stomach till he reached her breasts and kissed delicately around each of them. They were small and soft, just like the rest of her. He held her brests in his hand and rubbed them softly as he kissed her lips, and then kissed and sucked on her niples gently.

Julia loved every second of it, and felt like she was melting under his touch. As he kissed her skin she ran her hands through his soft hair and helped guide him to where she wanted him to kiss next until she couldn't hold back any more. Just as Peter started biting gently on her nipples, she pulled his head up to hers and kissed him passionately. He was always sure to be gentle with her, but she was much more passionate about these things then Peter.

As they kissed, Julia ran her hands across his chest, and quickly unbuttoned his shirt and pulled it off of him. When their chests met, their skin tingled like hundreds of tiny ants were crawling over their skin. With the curtains pulled shut, it was getting warm in their little tent, and Peter was starting to sweat. Beads of his sweat swept over Julia's skin, and it made their bodies slide over one another like a well oiled machine.

While the two continued kissing, Peter was getting more and more passionate. He started pushing his hips into Julia's, letting her feel him hard against her.

'Oh Aslan, I can't wait till we can do this and feel inside of her.' he thought and groaned with the idea of it.

The second he made the noise Julia froze, and he knew he would regret it. He kissed her neck and started for her breasts but she put her hands under his chin and pulled his face level with hers.

"I think we should stop, Peter." she frowned and reached for her dress to pull back over her tingling skin.

"No, no, no...it's fine. I'm sorry, I won't do it again. I promise." he pleaded and tried to pull her back to continue but knew it was of no use. Whenever that happened, she always ended whatever they were doing. By then she had pulled back the curtains of her bed and stepped out into her room to the window over looking the ocean.

Peter stepped out and behind her. He put his arms over her shoulders and around her and kissed the top of her head, looking out her window to the beach with her.

"I'm sorry, Julia. I don't mean to. It just....happens." he sighed.

She knew he never meant to do those things. Whenever they'd fool around, she'd always lose herself in the moment and let things get further then she ever intended. Whenever he made a noise, she'd snap out of it and realize what she was doing and immediately end it. It's not that she didn't want to do those things with him, she just wanted to wait.

"I know Peter. And I'm sorry if it's my fault but I just want to wait to...you know... till after we're married."

Peter then turned her around and smiled, "Don't worry...I don't mind waiting. It's going to be wonderful when we're able to....you know." and he kissed her gently on her lips, which were still hot from before.

They both were smiling and looking out over the water. It was very dark by now, but at the same time both saw a tiny light in the distance.

"Is that a ship?" Julia asked Peter.

"I believe it is." he answered.
