Author's Note: *gasps* I apologize a gazillion times for NOT updating in about a month. o___o *cringes* I got lazy over the summer. LOLz. Spent half of my time doing things like: chatting, catching up with old friends, going out to the mall/movies, and watching DVDs at home. =P Heh.

Once Haku's passionate lips touched Chihiro's smooth and flawless ones, a huge serge of pleasure and love filled her entire body. It was unlike anything she had experienced before, something that was so perfect and lovingly… and yet, so hard to explain in her own words. Unlike the kiss she has shared with her best friend Koji, this kiss was one that had completely filled her heart and desires completely, leaving out no doubts that this was the right thing to do with her Haku, her only lover. Warmth spread all over her body, resisting the cold advances of the harsh and freezing rain and wind around her.

After a couple of more minutes of interlocking lips, the two eager and passionate lovers parted from each other, gasping for breath. Just as much as Haku and Chihiro did not want their romantic liaison to stop, they did need to catch their breath. They had both thought to themselves, if humans didn't need to breathe, the endless possibilities between them. Chihiro and Haku sighed softly, imagining how their romantic experience would have continued without their unwanted, but significant parting of breath.

Then, Haku raised his head to glance at Chihiro's mischievous eyes, glittering with a naughty agenda. Immediately, a playful grin appeared on both of their faces… who said that they had to stop their lovingly romance after a little interruption?

Chihiro eagerly wrapped her long arms around Haku's strong neck, now making the first move of a new and lovingly kiss between them. Meanwhile, Haku wrapped his both of his arms around her slender form, pulling her desperately closer to him… as he officially closed the gap between their bodies.

As the kiss lasted between them, both lovers let out a few small moans, as both were filling each other with an unknown pleasure of love and lust. From once was an innocent and gentle kiss soon turned one that was intensely hungry and savage between them, as Haku forcefully shoved Chihiro on the rough and stable trunk of the cherry blossom tree, continuing the long and warm kiss.

Once Chihiro felt her stiff back slam into the trunk of the cherry blossom tree underneath them, she felt her face heat up intensely, hardly noticing the sharp pains that her fragile back was experiencing. The kiss between them was uncontrollable and lustful, filling them with more warmth and love than either of them had experienced before. Haku dug his long fingers into Chihiro's ever flowing waterfall of hair, as Chihiro placed one of her hands on his chest, trying to pull him any closer to her… if it was possible.

On the other hand, Haku was just as delighted and pleasured as Chihiro at the moment, as he took in Chihiro's heavenly scent of strawberries… making him hunger for her even more, as though she was some perfect double fudge sundae that was ready to be mercilessly devoured. As for her perfectly shaped and smooth lips, they had tasted like a delightful mix of chocolate and mint, enough to drive him to his wild thirst for love. This was definitely not himself; he was rarely one that lost control of his own actions.

And yet… at the moment, it seemed that Haku could not control his everlasting thirst for Chihiro, as he forcefully placed more kisses on her eager lips. There was one thing that he knew for certain… love always made people do the strangest things. And in this case, this love that was shared between these two lovers was unbreakable throughout time and its obstacles… this was certainly an undying love.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Meanwhile, unknown to the romancing couple, three pairs of curious eyes were spying intently at them, two of which belonged to Chihiro's best friends, Koji and Sakari. Koji and Sakari hadn't seen Chihiro in the cafeteria all day, as they had searched eagerly and worriedly for their friend. Little did they know that their search would lead them to something as unexpected and shocking as this.

"Aww… since that sweet, Koji? Chihiro has finally found herself a boyfriend! After all of those years, trying to find her someone to date too… and now my efforts have finally paid off! Who would have thought that she would fall for the new student so quickly? Don't you agree that they're perfect for each other?" dreamily exclaimed Sakari, as a first genuine smile of the day appeared on her face.

In all honesty, Sakari was on cloud nine, purely happy for her best friend. Chihiro deserved this; Chihiro deserved someone to love, and someone to love her back. She was already sixteen, and someone that Sakari would be proud to call a best friend. Chihiro was kind and caring, never hesitant to help others, and always understanding… lending a friendly ear to those that needed to talk about their everyday problems. Even though Chihiro was pretty dense and innocent at most times, she was still a great person. It was finally about time that someone started to care for her in this matter; she didn't deserve to be alone… she deserved to be loved for eternity, and now… it seemed that her hopes had come true.

On the other hand, Koji shared no thoughts or feelings that were whatsoever related to what Sakari was thinking at the moment. Instead, the young and attractive teen was seething in his own bloody pool of anger and discontent… and all because of one stupid, inferior boy by the name of Haku.

As far as Koji was concerned, Haku didn't deserve Chihiro at all. He had tried over three years just to catch Chihiro's attention… and then this jerk came out of nowhere and had Chihiro perfectly wrapped around his finger in no time! Honestly, what did this new student have that he didn't have? Why was Chihiro so naturally attracted to Haku? And did that student even deserve someone as wonderful as Chihiro?

In his own opinion, he thought that Haku didn't deserve or rightfully earn Chihiro's love. Who was the one who was supporting her for three whole years? Who was the one that shared an unbreakable friendship with her for so long? And who was the guy that Chihiro took as a date to every single school dance or prom in high school? Clearly, it was Koji, the true guy that deserved something that was as close as a romantic relationship with that beautiful young lady.

Who the hell was this person anyways? Who did Haku think he was? All of a sudden, this new student came to this school… and already got Chihiro's love in no more than half a day?! It wasn't fair at all. He ruined any chance he had with Chihiro, wrecking three years of commitment and efforts. What angered Koji even more was that Haku didn't even have to try to win Chihiro's heart… it was as though as she gave her love to him for free! If he knew that crying to himself as though the world was at its end would win her heart so easily, he would have done it himself… like what that Haku did!

All of a sudden, Koji's intense and angered thoughts were interrupted, as he felt a pair of gentle hands shaking him violently… as the impatient owner of those hands addressed him a question.

"Hello? Anyone home in there, Koji? I've been trying to get your attention for a good time now!" exclaimed Sakari, thoroughly discontent and impatient… after trying to get any kind of response from Koji in the last three minutes.

"Huh? Oh… sorry about that Sakari!" apologized Koji, as he blushed slightly. He had never realized that he took so long trying to sort out his own thoughts earlier.

"Pssh… well, you should be sorry! I was calling out your name for so long, I thought that you were already deaf or something! Pay more attention next time!" To add a desired and special effect to her message, she harshly slapped the top of his "hollow" head.

"Ouch! Geez… I get your point already! No need to get violent, y'know!"

"Heh. You deserved it, if you must know. Anyways… so what do you think about Chihiro's new relationship with that kid?" asked Sakari, as she pointed to the young man that was making love to Chihiro under the cherry blossom tree and the freezing rain.

"I think that the relationship is horrible, as far as I'm concerned…"

"Horrible? Oh come on, Koji… don't be so mean! Honestly, what do you really think?"

"One thing that I know for certain is that Chihiro shouldn't trust that Haku so easily…"

"Why can't she trust him? It isn't like he's going to rape Chihiro or anything. And if you must know, he does seem like one that could be trusted…"

"Oh please. All of the guys that wanted to date Chihiro always wore some fake and innocent mask, pretending to be someone that would be perfect for her. For all we know, Chihiro might just be having some normal, teenage infatuation on the new kid. Don't you think that it's a little bit dangerous for Chihiro to be having such an intimate relationship with a person she's only known for what… half a day? She hasn't even dated any of the guys she has known for years… what makes this guy any different from some of the others that have tried to take advantage of her in the past?"

"Aww… come on, Koji! I'm sure you're just overreacting. Knowing her, she always has good judgement on this type of thing… as far as I'm concerned. And how do you know that she hasn't known this guy beforehand? You know, there might be a possibility that this Haku might be Chihiro's secret boyfriend or something…"

"Secret boyfriend? Listen to yourself, Sakari, and be reasonable here. Even if she has known this guy beforehand doesn't mean she should be having such a deep relationship with him. Besides, even if she did know him some time ago… why wasn't he there for her when she needed someone to comfort her, hmm? He sure doesn't seem someone that would be good enough or suitable for someone like Chihiro, that's for sure…"

Sakari sighed quietly to herself. One thing was certain; Koji could be really self-opinionated and hard-headed at times such as this. If she didn't know better, she would have thought that Koji was one of the two things. One: Koji was an overprotective and worried best friend, taking too many precautions for Chihiro's own happiness and love life. Two: Koji was a best friend that still held strong feelings for Chihiro, and that he was trying to hide his jealousy and anger to himself. She silently prayed to herself that he was the first of those two things… or else that Haku could be finding himself in a dangerous predicament in the future.

"Even if you don't agree with her judgment, we shouldn't be deciding these things for her. It isn't our right to decide who she wants to be romantically associated with. As far as I'm concerned… if she is happy, which is clearly is right now… then I'm happy for her too!"

"You're right. We should be letting Chihiro make her own decisions, even if it means sharing a romantic relationship with that new student…" Koji lied on the tip of his tongue.

"I knew you'd agree with me! Now come on, let's leave those two alone now…"

Koji glanced disapprovingly once last time at the lovingly couple under the cherry blossom tree, before following Sakari into the bustlingly cafeteria. There was surely one thing Koji knew for certain… he wasn't going to let anyone interfere with his romantic efforts; he wasn't going down without a fight… Haku was going to pay dearly, and Koji was going to see it personally.
