PART 6
    
    They were both silent. They didn’t know what to say, but they knew they had to say something. When he looked into her eyes, he still saw so much truth and light, that he was tempted to kiss her. He waited so long to see her and had almost given up hope that he never would, but now looking into her eyes, he decided to give in to temptation no matter what the consequences may be.
    He slowly moved his face toward hers, determined to kiss her. It was quiet all around them; it was almost as if time had slowed until it came to a complete stop just for them. Their hearts raced with a passion and love that had been found again. How could such passion and love have ever been lost in the first place? How could such passion and love ever be lost again?
    With his lips, just inches away from hers, she closed her eyes and remembered the love they once shared. Despite everything that had happened, with their hands together, it felt like they had never been apart. She anxiously waited for the embrace of his lips, but they didn’t come.
    Something in John Smith told him to stop. Instead he raised his hand up and put it to her face, softly caressing it.
    “I’ve missed you Pocahontas.”
    She smiled with her heart and her face.     
    “I’ve missed you,” she whispered.
    “I let you get away once, because I thought it would make you happy to be with John Rolfe. I cannot let you get away from me again unless I know. Are you still happy?”
    “No.” She said. “I thought I was, but there’s no one in this world I will ever love more. You are my heart and my love. If you’ll still have me, I will leave John Rolfe and stay with you forever.”
    The moment the words left her mouth, neither could wait any longer. They rushed into each other’s arms and love overcame them so greatly, that they kissed. In their heart, were fireworks exploding. Still fireworks, seemed to be the wrong word for it, because it was so much more than that. It was love.
    In her mind, Pocahontas knew it was wrong because she was cheating on John Rolfe, but nothing could stop her from her feelings now. She couldn’t imagine what it would be like when she told John it was over, but being back in John Smith’s arms and in his heart, let her know everything was going to be okay.
