Hey guys, thanks for the review for the last chapter. Another chapter to post up today, YAY! Please help me reach my goal and please leave a review. Thanks again.

Few days passed after I was attacked by the evil soldier and Nathaniel killed him. Chingachgook didn't dare to ask me about what happened that day... I think Nathaniel told him.

One day, I was making supper for the boys because Nathaniel and Chingachgook went to the town to get some supplies they needed.

I set the table and put the roasted rabbit on table. I was cutting the rye bread when Nathaniel and Chingachgook came in.

Chingachgook was quiet and looked at Nathaniel with sad look and grabbed Nathaniel's gun and walked out of the room.

I frowned at the exchange and looked at Nathaniel. He just stood there, with the bag across his shoulder and he looked serious.

I put down the knife and put my back against the kitchen counter, crossing my arms together.

"Why is Chingachgook upset at you? Did you do something?" I said.

"I told him what I was going to do and he didn't like it at all. We had an argument about it and he just gave up."

He takes off his bag and dropped it on the floor.

"I have to tell you something and you are not going to like it."

"Why don't we talk about it at supper? I bet you're hungry?" I said, trying to avoid the subject.

"No, I want to talk about it now."

"Fine, tell me then."

"I met a man named Rollins and he's in a South Carolina Militia. I decided that I want to join in the militia and help them to fight for freedom. I found out that I have to leave tomorrow."

Emotions was going though my mind, sadness, angry and scared.

"What? You join in the Militia without asking me and you're leaving tomorrow?"

"I'm sorry, Emily." He said, walking to me.

"Don't come closer to me and don't touch me!" I yell, walking away from him.

I shook my head and said "How could you do this to me? How could you go off to fight the war and leave me and your father?! You fought in the French and Indian war a long time ago.. you did your duty!"

"Well, guess what? It's my duty now! I can't just sit there and hearing from people that men are dying. I want to do it and that's it! Enough! I am leaving tomorrow. End of discussion."

I stared at him coldly. "Fine!" I grabbed the bread and threw it at the table.

"I'm not eating tonight! Serve yourself!" I took off my apron and threw it at the chair. I walked into my bedroom and slammed the door.

I got on my bed and lay on my side, grabbing the pillow and screaming into it to muffle my scream. My screaming turned into sobbing.

"Oh, why? why does he have to do it?" I say to myself.

Three hours has passed and I got up to look at the mirror. I'm a mess.

I took my hair down and brush it. Then I undressed myself and put on my nightgown.

I didn't bother to braid my hair like I usually do for bed and went straight to bed, blowing the candle out.

The only light that was in my room is the moonlight. I look at the moon and it's a full moon tonight.

I was thinking about the night Nathaniel and I had our first kiss under the stars when I heard someone entering the room.

I didn't turn to look because I was too emotional and tired. I felt someone lying down next to me. I could tell it was Nathaniel because he put his arm around me and spooned me.

"Please don't be angry at me. I'm sorry but it's my duty. You know that I'm leaving tomorrow and what if it's the last time you saw me. I don't want to leave you angry." He whispered.

I touched his hand and held it. I didn't say anything.

"Please say something, Emily. I don't want to leave without saying goodbye. Please." He begged.

I closed my eyes, trying to fight off the tears coming. Finally, I looked at him.

"I just want to say one thing."

"What?"

"I love you." My voice breaks.

He smiled sadly. "I love you too."

He leaned down and kiss me on my lips softly. It soon grew into passionate kiss. He was on top of me, caressing my hair and kissing all over my face.

When we stopped and looked at each other, I put my hands underneath his shirt and pull it over his head. I moved on to his belt and he grabbed my hands, stopping me

"Are you sure?" He whispered, caressing my face.

"Yes... it may be the last time I will see you and I want to remember you." I whispered.

He let go of my hands, and I undo his belt, letting his pants falling off.

His hands slide further down, grabbing the nightgown I wore and pulling it up along my body and over my head, leaving me bare to him. I could feel the heat in my cheeks and I realized I was blushing.

But passion and gentleness in his eyes calmed me down. He pushed me down on the bed slowly and looked at me.

"You're beautiful.... and I love you so much."

He leaned down again and begin to kiss my neck.

I smiled in pleasure and moaned. He moved from my neck to my lips and kisses me passionately.

Soon, we made love. I gave him everything all I had and he gave me everything all he had too. Nothing in the world could make me forget how much I loved that man.

We made love desperately underneath the moonlight on my bed but we slowed down to savor one others body. In my heart, Nathaniel was my first.

After we made love, I had my head on his shoulder, his arm around my back, his hand on the curve of my hip.

I had my arm on his chest, my fingers tracing his scars, ribs and collarbone. He was resting his eyes, but awake.

"The scars you got on your chest... you got them from the war.. right?" I whispered, looking at his scars.

He half-opened his eyes and nodded.

He takes his finger and trace the scar on my shoulder, that I had gotten from Tavington.

"What about you? How did you get it?" He whispered.

"When I was eighteen, the British army and the Green Dragoons army came to my Father's home. The leader of the Green Dragoons, Tavington, thought that my older brother, Gabriel, was the spy rebel and sentenced him to death. My sixteen year old brother, Thomas, tried to stop them from taking Gabriel. Along with that, I tried to stop Thomas and Tavington shot him in the back in cold-blood murder. I didn't realized that I was hurt until hours after his death." I looked at the scar.

"This scar reminds me of Thomas everyday... and that my father is out there in the war...fighting because of Thomas."

I sighed. He put his finger underneath my chin and lift it up so I could look at him.

"It's not your fault.. you know that, right?"

"I know but I can't help it. It will always be with me for the rest of my life."

He looked at me sadly, then kisses me on my forehead.

"We need to go to sleep now. I have to get ready in the morning."

I nodded and he closed his eyes and sighed heavily.

I put my head on his chest and listened to his heart. I fell asleep to the sound of the heart.

The next morning, we got dressed and I made them breakfast. They ate their breakfast and I couldn't eat mine because I wasn't hungry and I was too nervous about Nathaniel.

Rollins arrived so he could take Nathaniel to their hiding place.

He said his goodbyes to his father, and then, he moved on to me. We didn't say a word, just looked at each other.

He moves and gave me an hug. We imparted and he started to walk to his horse.

He stopped suddenly, and looked at Rollins, then looked at me.

He walked quickly back to me and before I know it, he grabbed my face and kissed me passionately, deeper than I have ever know. It took my breath away.

When he stopped, he looked at me and smiled.

"I promise that I will come back to you. Remember that." he whispered.

I smiled and kissed him back softly.

"I will remember that." I responded back. He nodded and turned around to walk back to his horse.

He got on the horse and waved at us. We waved back. He took off with Rollins. We stood there until we could not see him anymore.

Chingachgook puts his arm around my shoulders.

"He will be alright. I know him very well." he says.

" I know. I know in my heart that he will come back safely. Thank you for being here."

"You're like my daughter that I never had."

I smiled. We went back inside and continued our day.

Hey guys, I hope you like it, lol. The goodbye scene, well, I was inspired by a show called The Touchwood.. if you know the show... great! If not, you can find it on youtube. In the show, where Jack had to say goodbye to Captain Jack and it was the kiss scene, and I thought it was passionate, romantic and things like that, I was inspired by that. A little warning, if you look it up on you tube and you watch it.. they're gay and if you don't like men kissing, don't watch it then. Anyway.. please leave a review! *SMILES*
