7th Dream Fragment - "Harry The Great" And The Pyramids Analogy

I am with the Actress woman who looks like Emma Watson, but I don't think it's Emma Watson

We are having a private moment, joking and laughing with each other

I ask her what nickname or title she would give to me, if she could choose and she says "Harry The Great"

I think by this, and the fact that I'm talking with a British accent, that I'm supposed to be Prince Harry

She is being serious, but I don't take the compliment well. I don't like the thought of anyone referring to me as "Great", not even her

I lean in to try kiss her

She pulls away from my kiss slightly, making it clear she doesn't want to kiss her

So instead of kissing her like I wanted to, I persist even as she retracts from the kiss, to kiss her gently and quickly on the lips

A light, friendly kiss, instead of the passionate kiss I was going for

It seemed like the right way to go about it when she pulled away from me, to save us both from embarrassment. To turn it into something other than it was going to be

After I peck her lightly on the lips, I pull away from her and smile as if to tell her it's OK that she doesn't want to kiss me

She seems conflicted and asks me a very serious question:

"If you wanted something serious with me (from me), would I even be able to tell?"

I think for a moment, feeling as though I'm emotionally withdrawing from her as I do

I understand the questing she is asking me and I don't want her to misunderstand me, so I answer as honestly as I can, by telling her that who I end up being with, isn't up to me

It feels as though the older members in my family get to choose who it is I end up marrying

I decide to tell her a little story as a example, to liken to my situation and answer get question

I tell her that the Pyramids of Egypt are open to the public each day, between certain hours. But they are also subject to close without reason at a moments notice

So some people come to visit the Pyramids and are told that they can't see them

Even though they are on holidays and might never get the chance to see them again

Even though their flight might leave in a few hours and they could leave without ever having seen the thing they came to see

It's not fair, but there is nothing you can do about it

And even though it's stupid. Sometimes, they don't get to see them and it's for no other reason but someone didn't feel like coming in to work. So the Pyramids are closed

It sucks. But it's the way it is

And even though it sometimes is someone's fault, nobody can really be blamed

She seems to understand the analogy, puts her head against my shoulder and asks if it's alright if I just hold her instead

I cuddle her, telling her I'd like nothing more

...

Looking at this afterwards, subjectively, this doesn't feel like the real Prince Harry. At least, not the one I know (of) in this world
