After a few momentts of gathering my thoughts, my train of thought rushes back to my journey with the correspondence. "My messages, what happened? The battle, what became of it?"

She bows her head, "I'm sorry when I found you there weren't any papers or messages, and I was busy trying to attend to your wounds, so...."

I curse to myself. If I hadn't been spotted things wouldn't have been this way. If people died because of the information I was to deliver, then it is on my head. I furrow and huddle over in guilt. She kindly comes over to me and hugs me, rocking me like a child, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to save you. I just couldn't bare to see you die...."

We stay in that position for a moment. Finally I brush her off gently and say, "Thank you so much for saving me. Please if there is anyway I can show you my gratitude, please, let me do so."

She blushes suddenly, "I-its ok...really...I" She is quite hot and seems uncomfortable. I begin to realize tha she is indeed, very different from the tales I've heard. She seems to catch glimpses at me and struggling within herself to say or do things when I'm concerned. Does....she like me?

I ask again, "Please, tell me, is there anything I can do to repay you?" She meekly mumbles, "Yes....but you wouldn't want to...."

I am now pleading, "Please let me know!" She suddenly blurts out, "I want you to marry me!"

We are both silent for a moment, but she suddenly speaks, "Thats why I didn't want to say it....you don't want someone like me...you want someone like a normal girl and-"

I put my hand over her lips, "I don't like it when people make decisions for me...." I remove my hand from her mouth. "You...you want me to be your husband?" She nods her head.

He is still some what shocked, "I wouldn't know why, and I have no right to ask for a reason, but...."

She starts to back away, "Its alright....pretend I didn't say anything-"

I pull her into me, she falls onto the bed with me. Despite the wincing pain, I hold her together against me. "Why would I refuse the woman how saved my life and confessed her love to me? It may not be what I had thought it would end for me, but I can love you, only if you give me enough time....."

She starts to cry, "You....really want to....?" I kiss her and lay her down next to me. "I would love to spend the rest of my life with you, and I wouldn't have it any other way...."

Despite that, others may have paid for my happiness, I am glad to have ended up here. She, who saved me, asked only that my life be forever entwined with hers, why would I refuse her?
