Two Months Later

John walked into Pocahontas' village. It was bright and early, just before sunrise. He smiled lightly as he knocked on the side of Powhatan's hut.

The Chief stuck his head out, half asleep. "Smith, what is it?" he asked.

"There is something I would like your permission on," John replied with a grin. Powhatan caught his drift and let him into his hut so they could talk in private.

It had been an hour since John had arrived and he was still talking to Pocahontas' father. She sat outside his hut, waiting patently for John. What could they be talking about? Pocahontas sighed and drew in the dirt with her finger.

Not too long after, John came out with an even bigger smile on his face. "Will someone tell me what is going on?" Pocahontas demanded in a friendly voice.

John kneeled down in front of her, their eyes level and meeting. He pulled a beautiful wooden necklace out of his pocket. Taking Pocahontas' hand, he placed in on her palm.

"Pocahontas," John spoke, "Will you marry me, so we can stay at each others sides?"

Tears of joy fell from her eyes and she nodded. "Yes," Pocahontas breathed before she was swept into John's embrace. They lightly kissed, holding on to each other tight. With all they had been through, almost loosing each other, they would finally always be together.
