ON:

The Sunlight coming through the cracks in the curtains caused Melody to stir and she stretched. They had only been on the planet overnight but, due to the metaphasic radiation in the planet's rings, she already felt 10 years younger and full of energy. The signs of childbirth were already starting to fade and her skin was getting tighter and smoother in all the right places. Even with the twins still feeding, her other 'twins' were starting to defy gravity.

Melody had procured two log cabins at the edge of a crystal clear lake. One for herself, Draxx and the twins and one for Sansa and Hamish.

"Right who is hungry?" the Bajoran said happily walking in naked apart from his boxers and a strategically placed apron with 2 pockets. Which were already adorned with some bottles of breastmilk. "Eggs, steak and hash browns. My uncles recipe," he said proudly placing a plate in front of his wife holding both their younger kids. "And freshly squeezed Moka and Orange juice with a dash of Alberian pepper. Trust me beautiful this stuff is better than coffee and you get your vitamin C."

Melody looked at him lovingly, noticing how much more toned his chest looked. “Thank you, you do spoil us,” Melody said as she gratefully accepted both the breakfast and the bottles for the twins.

“This looks delicious. How about we eat first, then I feed these two, then I can thank you properly for this delicious breakfast.” She added, teasing and letting the strap of her night dress fall off her shoulder.”

“Someone’s in a good mood,” Draxx quipped. “And may I say the other twins are looking remarkable right now.”

"You noticed, I must admit, I'm not complaining." She held her hand over her head and stretched out provincially. Everything just feels.... tighter..." She took a sip of her juice, unable to take her eyes away from Draxx's body. "You're not looking too bad yourself." She said dreamily.

"Yes this place is wonderful. The effect it has on you," Draxx smiled. "I feel ten years younger."

Meanwhile, in the cabin next door, Sansa was also waking up next to Hamish. While the metaphasic radiation did not affect Sansa's much younger body to the same extent, she also felt full of energy. She rolled over and traced a hand down Hamish's chest. "Good morning sleepy head."

Hamish opened one eye and peered at Sansa, "Morning already?" closing his eye and moved to get more comfortable, "How about an early morning nap." trying to hide a cheeky smile. Sansa definitely kept him busy the night before.

"Come on, It's beautiful here." She swung her legs over the side of the bed and stood, letting the cover fall off her naked body. She opened the curtain slightly so she could look out over the lake. She turned to look at him "This whole planet still feels brand new, like time works differently here somehow, much slower, more serene. She paused as she look at him lying there on the bed "It's certainly doing wonders for you," She added with a raised eyebrow, noting his general physique had started to improve. "Not that I was complaining before my love. No wonder Mom wanted to come here," she added thoughtfully.

She walked provocatively back over to the bed, "How about I wake you up properly and then some breakfast?" She asked with a wicked smile on her lips. " I think Mom mentioned something about swimming this morning."

Hamish's eyes snapped open and held out his arms. "I am all for that, my sweet lover." a rakish grin appearing. "As for swimming, I will make certain to wear swim trunks, though I do plan on us skinny dipping sometime while we are here." sitting up long enough to pull her into bed with him and planting a rather passionate kiss upon her delectable lips.

A few hours had passed and the sun was rising higher in the sky. Sansa had decided, reluctantly, that they better get up. She showered and put on a simple dress, then made breakfast for herself and Hamish.

Hamish took his turn in the shower and got dressed in some Bermuda shorts, and a blue tee shirt. "Something smells wonderful." walking over and giving Sansa a kiss. "I am feeling rather good, thanks to you and the lovely surroundings. Definitely looking forward to relaxing and seeing what is about."

As he wrapped his arms around her, something very weird happened for Sansa. The ticking of the timepiece on the mantle slowed to a crawl, the dancing of the dust particles in the sunlight coming threw the windows slowed, making them seem frozen in place in mid-air. It was as if time suddenly slowed down to a crawl, making the kiss he was giving seem like it would last a lifetime. The silence was deafening.

Then the stillness and silence were broken by a woof and a small blur of brown fur came running into the room, having been awoken by the smell of food.

Sansa gasped. "Hye there Belle. Are you hungry?" She bent down and picked up the pup before turning back to Hamish. "How did you do that? Make time slow down like that? It was just like.... a perfect moment"

Hamish was rather perplexed with just what had transpired, the feeling of her lips upon his still lingered and that sensation of as what Sansa had put it, a perfect moment. He looked at Sansa, "I-I don't know quite what happened just then, but it was sheer poetry and magical." He quickly went and dug out his tricorder and scanned that very area, then scanned himself and Sansa. He wanted to see if some faerie magic had just happened, like something Mathias has spoken about a little while back.

"Well whatever it was, it was.... magical." She was unable to find a better word to describe it. She approached him and gently pushed the tricorder down and kissed him again. "There'll be time for scanning later, come have some breakfast with us?"

The little pup woofed as if to agree with her.

Hamish laughed, "Okay okay, I'll put it away. I will look at the scans later on." returning the kiss. "Breakfast it is and then out for some exploring." grinning ear to ear. "This place is quite the healthy place to be at. I am certainly glad this was suggested." making his way to the table, an arm around his lady love.

"That sounds wonderful." Sansa sat down next to Hamish, the little pup went straight to her food bowl and started eating.

"I wonder what Mom and Dad are doing in their cabin..." She took a sip of juice and looked at Hamish with a devilish grin.

Hamish wasn't going to step in that one, he only smiled with a teasing glint in his eyes. "I will say having the time of their lives. As we are doing also." picking up a fork of food and chewed with his mouth closed.

Sansa smiled as she took a bite of her breakfast. "Everything tastes.... just so much more.... delicious here. It's hard to describe. How about we finish this and then go for a stroll around the lake?"

"A lovely stroll around the lake with the lady who possesses my heart. An enchanting woman, who has me spell bound." Hamish responded with a gentle smile. "Yes most definitely yes."
