THE TIME STAR (10 page)

"Thomas!" she cried when she
reached the cabin.

Its door swung open, and Waneeta
recognized the figure silhouetted in the doorway, warm firelight bathing his
back in yellow.

"Waneeta?"

She rushed into his arms, his woodsy
male scent comforting her. "Thomas, it's you! Oh, it's you!" She
couldn't find the words she needed to describe how she felt. All she could
think of was one simple phrase.

"I love you, Thomas."

His arms tightened around her, and he
lowered his mouth onto hers. "Waneeta, I was afraid you were a dream! Stay
with me, please. I love you. I didn't tell you that before. And I have so much
to say to you."

"So do I! I love you, too, Thomas. What
day is this? How long have I been gone?"

"Two days. I searched for you, but
when I couldn’t find you, I returned. I’ve just started to write in my journal
about you. Come in where it’s warm."

She laughed and they hurried inside,
each clinging to the other. "Don't write in that journal. Because I've got
the most incredible story to tell you," she whispered, stopping to drop
the meteorite on the washstand and reaching up to stroke his cheek. "You
were right. Love is powerful enough for anything."

She smiled, shakily. "Even powerful
enough to transcend time itself."

Kissing her, Thomas kicked the door shut
behind them.
