Chapter 2

In Pocahontas's mind, it seemed that nothing was going right since he had left. "Why did I not go?" The question ran through her head as she thawt about her answer, "I'm needed here," she had replied. Sinking to her knees at the bank of the river she layed her head in her hands. "I'm sorry I was harsh," Thomas said as he knelt beside her. "Please, leave me," she whispered, "I just want to be alone." 'I am alone' she thawt as she stood up and faced Thomas. "What you-what everyone has done means a lot to me but I just feel alone;lost," she said as she hung her head. Feelings of gilt and the constant saying ran through her head, 'not him, why not me'? "I understand," Thomas replied gentley placing his hand on her shoulder, lowering his head to see the flash of gilt in her eyes. "No, no you do not," she retorted, lifting her eyes in order to meet his gaze, "no one knows what it's like." "I do," Thomas said, so quietly that she barely heard him. She sighed, "care to tell me what happened?" She justured for him to follow her as she walked over to a stump and sat down together. The young man sat down with one hand on his knee and the other underneath his chin. 'Should I tell?' he thawt as his young mind went back just three years before.
