A Thousand Rivers-Yume (Dream)

Disclaimer-.same as usual.we don't own Spirited Away/Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi when Miyazaki Hayao wrote/directed it.

A/N: Oh and just so you know, whenever the characters are saying their full name, their last name is first and their first is second. I'm pretty sure a lot of you already know that (sorry if you already know ^^;), but just in case if some one reads this and doesn't know that and get all confused and all. ^^;

(Chihiro) I've been having the same dreams over and over again, or at least with the same person in it. Every dream was about a boy whose name is Haku that looked like the age of twelve with black shoulder-length hair and green eyes. I was there too, I looked ten years old. I felt attracted to him, I probably loved him.maybe I did. It seemed like memories forgotten that I should of remembered. But it was a dream, there's no use of falling in love with a person that does not even exist! .It seemed too real though.. even if it was just fantasy.but.whenever I have these dreams, I can feel this deep, empty hole in my heart.

--- Morning

Chihiro, thank you! My name is "Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi"

.Ha.

Promise. Now go.

.ku.?

Who are you really?

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP! BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

"Nhm..what time is it?" Chihiro looked at the annoying alarm clock. "7 am.I better get ready so Mirei-chan won't wait for me again." She lazily got out of bed and started preparing for school. Chihiro was now in 7th grade, about 3 years since she entered Rei Rei no Sekai (World of Spirits). She doesn't remember a thing, but thanks to Zeniba, she hasn't completely forgotten.

Chihiro walked outside the door when she finished getting ready for school. There under the cherry blossom tree in their front yard was her best friend, Mirei Midorikawa, waiting for her friend.

"Oyaho Mirei-chan!!" She greeted.

"Oyaho Chihiro-chan!" The black haired girl replied. "So how is your day?"

"I just woke up like fifteen minutes ago! Just guess." She laughed. Then Mirei joined in. Suddenly, Chihiro had another memory come across her mind.

"Thank goddness your alight!!"

Chihiro groaned and sank to the floor, suffering from the overwhelming lost memories coming to her, which made her heart feel pain, the kind of pain where you have lost something.

"CHIHIRO!!" Mirei yelled in worry as she kneeled down to see what was wrong. "Are you ok?! What happened?!" The memories stopped appearing. "Chihiro-chan!"

"It's ok, Mirei-chan, I'm fine." She began to stand up and then smiled to her friend. "See? I'm alright! Thanks for caring. Let's just get to school now."

Mirei still looked worried and then smiled knowing she would be alight. "Ok. Let's go." And they walked on.

When they arrived to their school, Awasaru Junior High, they found that students were still walking around. That meant that they had time to talk before class started.

"Chihiro-chan, what really happen to you when you sank to the ground?" Mirei asked.

"Well, it may be kind of weird, but I keep on having these visions of this boy with black hair and green eyes and a white dragon. My dream self calls him by the name "Haku". They even appear in my dreams, actually all my dreams. And then I can feel this strong pain in my heart, the kind of pain where you feel you've forgotten or lost something. It's weird that it happens everytime, I wonder why. But the boy was kinda cute though! Teehee." Chihiro explained.

"Haha! Chihiro has a crush on a dream boy!" She teased. "But that is sorta strange. Maybe sometime will happen or you'll meet the guy someday. Hey, maybe he'll be your future husband! Hehe." Chihiro started to blush. Then, she looked out the window into the hallway where she could see a sea of students. But then she saw something very strange. In the crowd, a boy she had saw before suddenly appeared. It was the same boy, the boy with the exact same black hair and green eyes. The only difference was that he was dressed in their school uniform instead of his ancient-looking white robe and blue pants. The boy that her dream self calls "Haku". Chihiro's eyes widened as she stared at the figure that she was sure wouldn't come into reality. When he noticed Chihiro, he smiled back at her then disappeared into the crowd. "Chihiro-chan? Chihiro-chan, what's wrong?" Mirei asked then looked at the crowd. "Is there something wrong?" A few seconds later, Chihiro went back to reality.

"Oh. Sorry! I just thought I saw something, that's all." She replied.

"Oh. So what did you see?"

"You may think its very weird, but-" Chihiro was suddenly interrupted by the teacher.

"Good Morning class!" Sakimoto-sensei greeted as she walked in.

"Good morning Sakimoto-sensei!!" The class replied as they went to their seats.

"We have a new student! Isn't that great?" Sakimoto- sensei smiled. "Why don't you come in Haku-san?"

Chihiro immediately froze when she heard the name "Haku". "Haku?!" She thought. "Please don't let it be."

In stepped a handsome twelve year old boy with black shoulder length hair and green eyes. Chihiro couldn't believe it, she wouldn't! Because there stood the exact same boy she saw in both her dreams, visions, and the hallway.

Sakimoto-sensei wrote Haku's full name on the board. "His full name is Kohaku Kawa. He moved here from the area where the Kohaku River used to be. ^^ Kawa-san, why don't you introduce yourself to the class?"

"Konnichi wa. My name is Kawa Kohaku, but may call me Haku or Kohaku if you want. I'm very pleased to meet you all."

The class said many comments like, "Kawa Kohaku? Isn't that the same name as the Kohaku River ("kawa" means river)", "He's cute!", or "Will you be my friend??". Probably Chihiro was the only one that kept quiet. "Hey, Chihiro-chan," Mirei whispered, "He looks like the description of your dream boyfriend!"

Instantly, she replied, "I know that." without even noticing that she used the term "dream boyfriend".

"Kawa-san, why don't you sit next to Ogino Chihiro over there?" Sakimoto-sensei said. "Oh! I have an idea! Chihiro- san, why don't you show Haku-san around the school during lunch or something? I'm sure he would really appriciate it! ^^"

"Su.sure.." She nervously said. Then she found Haku standing right next to her.

He smiled and whispered, "Don't be afraid. I'm your friend." Then sat down at his seat.

Even though his calm words should of calmed her down, she was still shaking with her hand over her mouth.
