Chihiro wandered around aimlessly, she didn't know what to do with herself; Yubaba hadn't told her to do anything, Haku was nowhere to be found, and Hikari was busy working. Thinking of nothing else, Chihiro made her way back to Haku's place. It was a fairly sized apartment, it included a bedroom, a living room, a bathroom, and a small kitchenette. Chihiro sat at the kotatsu that sat in the middle of the living room, and managed to make herself some tea.

She felt strange helping herself to Haku's things, but she knew he would mind. Chihiro hadn't realized how boring it was around the bath house, she had always been busy working with the others. She really wanted to catch up with Hikari, she was the only one out of the girls there that actually talked to her, and actually acknowledged her.

Time slowly ticked away as Chihiro sat there in a daze, thinking about everything as she slowly sipped her tea. Suddenly, she heard someone knocking at the door, and rushed over to answer it. It was Hikari.

"About time you answered the door," her sassy voice said as she lightly pushed passed Chihiro and into the living room. "I was knocking for ten minutes."

She slowly closed the door as the thought about the last ten minutes, she had been so out of it that she hadn't heard the door at all. "Sorry, I was thinking about some stuff, and I guess I kinda spaced out."

Both girls sat around the kotatsu, and began to talk about their lives after Chihiro had left. It made Chihiro feel better when she talked to Hikari. "So tell me about Lin, did she say where she was going?"

Hikari tapped her fingers lightly on her tea cup, it upset her talking about it. "No, she left without saying anything. While we were all sleeping one night she just got up and left, she didn't even say goodbye. She left a note that literally had two words on in; be good. What's that supposed to even mean? I'm always a perfect angel!"

Chihiro tried to suppress her laughter, but she just couldn't stop herself. "You, good? You were the farthest thing from good from what I remember. Remember that time you accidently got that gooey stuff in that girls hair? Lin was furious!"

A look of remembrance flashed across Hikari's face as she burst into laughter. "I completely forgot about that, I was lucky I wasn't fired! Lin was on my case for the entire week after that."

"Yeah, it was kind of funny though," Chihiro giggled.

The girls continued to talk well into the night, both sharing what they had been up to since they last saw each other. Both had so much to tell one another, and soon they became tired from all the laughing and reminiscing. Without realizing it both girls had laid their heads down on the kotatsu, and managed to fall asleep.

Not long after the girls feel asleep Haku finally came back. He was just about to call out for Chihiro when he noticed the two fast asleep at the table, their light snores filling the room. With a heavy sigh Haku cleaned up the mess they had made. When he finished cleaning up he turned around and looked at the two sleeping girls, wondering what to do, he couldn't just leave them there. So, Haku proceeded to pick Hikari up, and take her to the futon in the other room.

After carefully placing Hikari down under the blanket Haku went out to carry Chihiro in. Haku carefully cradled her in his arms as he carried her. Without Haku realizing it, Chihiro had woken up a bit.

"Where are you taking me?" she mumbled with a groggy voice.

Haku looked down in surprise. "To bed, where else would I be taking you?" he smiled softly.

Chihiro lightly shrugged in his arms, the warmth from his body was incredibly soothing. "What about Hikari?" her sleepy voice asked.

"I've already put her there," he whispered to her as he entered the bedroom. Haku gently laid Chihiro down, and pulled the blanket over her. "Now go back to sleep, I'll see you tomorrow."

Chihiro nodded as she quickly drifted off again. Haku crouched down next to her, and gazed at her. Without realizing it he reached out, and moved her hair out of her face. "Good night," he whispered softly. He then stood up, and headed into the other room to go to sleep himself.
