Author's note: GAHHHHH! I'm having the worst writer's block right now, I really don't know how to describe this feeling other than frustrating. Haha, ahhh D; I'm so frustrated trying to balance school and this updated as much as possible. By the way; if any of you guys have any idea's for baby names that would be great! I'm currently in the middle finishing up this book, I plan to have it down within 36 chapters and start a second book. Ah, but it's so frustrating. TT_TT anyways enjoy! This chapter is fairly short because I'm in the middle of exams and sports. But it's filled with a cute fluff.
About 3 months have passed by, and it was in the dead of fall. Haku and Chihiro had gotten to the new system of the bathhouse and work. It was a lot more relaxed and fun in the bathhouse and guest loved Chihiro. It fascinated many of them because she was a human, though the fall months had brought many spirits who were in the middle of their near hibernation period. Since winter brought in many nature spirits and froze over river spirits the bathhouse flourished with business. One day when a stink spirit came oozing in, everyone opened every single window. It was so horrid that nearly 20 yuna's had passed out and several Toads had to go the infirmary; Chihiro simply started to tear about thirty feet away from it. Haku's sensitive nose could smell it all the way from the office on the top floor. He nearly gagged, but held his composure.
"Gah!" Chihiro said the night of, after they had taken care of the stink spirit, "It keeps getting more horrid." She complained getting ready for bed as she sat in the middle of the futon crossed legged in a pouting manner. Haku giggled and kissed her forehead, "Well love, we can't complain about the one you handled before, I nearly passed out about 5 feet away from that thing." He said shaking his head remembering the one she had saved. She leaned into him and smiled, "I guess you're right." He cheek met his bare chest as she listened to the steady beat of his heart. She closed her eyes and sighed, "Haku?"
"Hmm?" He said kissing her hair and wrapping his arms around her.
"I love you." She said, and her eyes widened. It had finally come, she had finally said those words to him. It naturally flowed out, almost like running water. She looked up at him and saw the biggest smile on his face, he touched his fingers to her lips.
"Say it again," He said leaning close.
She smiled and whispered, "I love you."
And with that he silenced her with a kiss.
