I wanted to get this chapter up as soon as possible for all my fans out there. I usually take a few weeks to get them up, but I needed to write! I just never have much time anymore.
Oh! I found something out, too. It's weird...but..ok. Kohaku is the name for a type of Koi Pond Gold Fish. You know those big fish you put in your ponds? Like what the Tendo Dojo has in Ranma 1/2, that Ranma always falls into. I just thought that was neat to know.
I have decided that I'm just going to drag this story out and make it really long. I have some ideas... I just have to find a way to bring them out in the story without the characters being too much out of character. So anyway... lets continue this story... and please R&R! And read my other fanfics too. I'm currently working on two Inuyasha fics.
Here we go!

Chihiro enjoyed her time with Kohaku. She actually got to know him as the person of her present, and not as the person of her past. He was just as serious as when she knew him, but he also had personality, something, she realized, Haku had the lack of. Kohaku and Haku were the same, yet, so different. Kohaku was fun to be with, to talk to. Chihiro felt almost like herself when she was with him. She wasn't the popular and smart Chihiro everyone in her school knew her for. She was Chihiro, the little girl that met and fell in love with a dragon spirit.
The tutoring went well. She had a few problems with the equations, always getting different answers each time she worked with a problem. She got a few problems down, and still more she had to work with. During their tutoring they talked about various things- school, classes, teachers, and life in general. Kohaku asked her about her family, and she already knew about his. They were relationship was going good. They were friends.
*But how much more will we be?* Chihiro thought as she packed up for the night. *He is nothing like Haku. He's more playful... and... interesting. Is this really Haku?*
"Do you want to continue some more tomorrow?" Kohaku asked smiling at her.
Chihiro nodded. "If you don't mind."
He shook his head. "I have about an hour practice for basketball, but after that I'm free."
She nodded and stood. "That's fine. I'll just watch." She blushed. "If you don't mind."
Kohaku laughed. "Not at all. You can watch or work on some problems. Practice shouldn't take too long. Coach just wants to see what I can do." He smiled at her.
Chihiro nodded. "Alright then. I better be getting home now. I worried my parents last night. I don't want to worry them anymore then I have to."
Kohaku nodded. "I'll walk you home."
"That's ok," Chihiro smiled at his comment. "I'll be fine. But you can walk me to the door since I don't feel to comfortable in your house, yet."
*Yet* she thought with a smile.
"Alright. Come on. Lets get you out of here."
She picked up her bag and followed after him through the house to the front walk. She slipped her shoes on and thanked him.
"No problem. Hey. Do you want to meet me at the corner in the morning so we can walk to school together and you can show me around a bit?"
Chihiro's smiled grew. "Sure. What time?"
"Um... lets get to school a little early so we have enough time to wonder around. Say... seven-thirty?"
She nodded. "That's fine with me." She repositioned her pack on her back. "Well, then. I'll see you in the morning." She ran out to the sidewalk then turned around to wave at him. "Bye, Haku!" He waved back and she took off running down the street.
*I get to spend more time with Haku!* she exclaimed in her mind. *The more time I spend with him, the better the chance that he'll remember.*

"Chihiro!" her mother called as she headed up stairs to her room.
"Hm?" Chihiro grumbled, poking her head over the stairs.
"Lani called. She wanted me to tell you to call her back as soon as you got home."
Chihiro nodded. "Thanks." She took two steps up at a time as she raced to her room. She threw her pack down beside her bed and picked up her cordless phone. She jumped on her soft bed and dialed.
One ring. Two.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Yasami-san. This is Chihiro. Is Lani home?"
"Hi, Chihiro. She's in here room I think. Let me get her, hold on."
"Thanks." Chihiro waited a short period before Lani got on the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Lani. It's me."
"Chihiro! Where were you?"
"Um... I was studying," she half-lied.
"With who...hmmm?"
"Just...myself." Chihiro was bad at lying.
"You lying! I know! I saw you walking with Kohaku! I live in the same area, you know."
Chihiro sweat dropped on her end of the line. "I forgot."
"So you were with him!"
"Yah yah. All he did was tutor me. Nothing else." Chihiro rolled her eyes.
"Are you serious? You guys didn't kiss at all?"
"Lani! I just met the guy! Geesh!"
"Oooh... so you admit you DO like him?"
Chihiro blushed. Kohaku was the second guy she has liked.
*They may be the same, but their both two very different people* she thought. She had to think of them as if they were.
"Yah I do. Is that Ok?"
Her friend squealed into the phone. "Yes! Finally. Chihiro is going to get a boyfriend." She paused in mid scream. "Wait! What are you going to do about Kona?"
Chihiro's eyes got wide. "Oh no," she groaned, sinking her hands into her face, dropping on the phone as she did so.
"Chihiro! Hello!" came the faint voice from the phone that not lay on her pillow.
Chihiro grabbed the phone back and turned over onto her back.
"What am I going to do about him, Lani? I mean, I like him as a friend, and I know he likes so much more."
"I'm not sure. Let me sleep on it. I'm sure between the both of us, we can think of something."
Chihiro sighed. "Alright."
"I'll see you in the morning then."
"Oh! Hey! Kohaku is supposed to meet me at the bottom of the hill at seven-thirty tomorrow so I can show him around. Want to meet up with us?"
"To meet the oh-so popular Kohaku? Of course!" She giggled. "I'll meet you there then."
"Great. I'll talk to you later."
"Bye."
"Bye."
Chihiro hung the phone up. She got up and put it back in the cradle, then proceeded to get in her pajamas for the night. She was tired. She had fun hanging out with Kohaku, but the studying they did manage to do wore her out.
She yawned.
"I should I kissed him," she said out loud not really understanding why she was saying it. She slapped her hand over her mouth just as soon as the words left her mouth. "I did not just say that!"
*****
Well.. that's the end of that chapter. I'm going to do something a little different with the next chapter and put it in Haku's POV. He's going to have a dream... gee... I wonder what it will be about... my stories are so corney! If you think their cool, leave me a Reply that says COOL. If you think it's corny, leave me a reply that says CORNEY. Or just leave me a detailed message and an email address and I will get back to you. BEEP!
