Haji waited for her in the tomb, watching her sleep for thirty years as he always did. He longed to see those beautiful brown orbs look back at him. He knew that the time for her to awaken was approaching. He noticed her eye lids begin to flutter. He hovered over her, waiting anxiously for them to open. Suddenly, they snapped open quickly and stared back at him. She gave him a puzzled look.

"Haji? I must be dreaming, huh?"

"No Saya," he responded, brushing her bangs from her face.

" Y-you're really here? You're alright," she asked groggily.

Haji nodded. She let out a cry of relief and sprang up into his arms.

"I love you too Haji. I never thought I'd be able to tell you," she cried clinging to his jacket.

Haji brushed off the tears with his human hand and smiled. She never thought she'd see him smile, and now that she had at that moment, she felt her heart melt. She touched his cheek and returned the smile.

Now that everything was over, the two of them had all the time in the world. The world was now there's. They now had the opportunity to focus on their feelings for one another.

"After I thought you had died, I regretted choosing to live and when I was beginning to fall asleep, I prayed that I would never wake again. I didn't want to live for an eternity without you Haji."

"I'll never leave your side Saya. When you need me, I'll be with you, as I always have.

With her hand still on his cheek, she moved in close and kissed him. As they kissed, she gently pushed him down onto the concrete. He broke the kiss for a moment and whispered, "I love you Saya." Tears of joy flooded her eyes. She smiled and then continued the kiss. She bit down on his bottom lip and licked up the blood that trailed down his chin. Haji didn't wince. The licks turned into kisses that lingered on his jaw. A few seconds later they made a home on his neck. She began to unbutton his shirt without breaking the kisses along his neck. Once his shirt was finally off, and his broad chest was revealed she began to kiss it.

Haji ran his hand up the back of her shirt and unhooked her bra and then lifted off her shirt. He removed the straps from her arm, causing the bra to fall to the floor. When he felt her begin to shiver, he turned the tables and got on top of her. He held her close and began kissing her neck, every now and then biting at it teasingly.

"Ah, Haji," she moaned.
