Two days after the defeat of Kael, Haku remained sleeping lifelessly in his new king size bed, made replica to the bed that Kael must have destroyed in the blast the day before.

Anyone that slept in the bed had their names nicely written on the foot of the bed.

Though Chihiro sat by his side as he slept, waiting anxiously for his waking.

The rain outside started to pour, thumping down on the roof of the bath house.

Startled, Chihiro's head shot up. She was resting her head on Haku's hand, closing her eyes, thinking of Haku's words.

"I ask if I may spend the rest of my life with you, as your husband, your lover, your soul mate. And maybe even as the father of our children?"

"I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I wanted a family with you Chihiro…"

"Maybe a son or daughter, I want to be with you Chihiro as your husband, as the father of your children if you will allow me."

Turning her view to the balcony, she saw the pouring rain.

Standing up, she glanced at Haku who was still sleeping soundly, with a snore every few minutes.

Smiling, she made her way to the shaded balcony.

Resting her hands on the slightly damp railings she stared out at the Spirit World.

The rain was so heavy, that visibility wasn't very good. You could only see a matter of kilometers away, usually you could see all the way until the horizon of the Sea.

It was afternoon time at the Spirit world, the rain hid the setting of the sun.

Lights were starting to be turned on at different parts of the Spirit world.

Her body shivered as the cold wind blew past, though she stood there still, staring out at the Spirit world.

Automatically her arms went around her, warming her shoulders as she stood there.

Haku had woken so quietly, his eyes scanned the room, finally resting on her shivering form standing at the balcony.

The sleep that he had taken restored all the energy that he used; he was filled with energy ready to take on any evil spirit.

Quietly he made his way over to her.

Walking up behind her was easy, as the noise of the rain was so loud, he himself couldn't hear his footsteps.

His arms came to rest on either side of her, trapping her in a way.

All that was between him and the balcony railings was her.

Startled, Chihiro froze, but immediately relaxed when she realized who it was.

"It's freezing here Chihiro. You might get a cold from the rain." Haku whispered in her ear.

Smirking she answered. "I'm not cold anymore."

Leaning in, Haku rested his head against the crack of her neck, kissing it softly.

He then took a deep breath in, catching a breeze of her scent.

"Thank you. For being here, for being alive." He whispered in her ear.

He moved back a bit, allowing Chihiro some space to turn around.

Her hands came to rest on either side of his back, giving him a warm hug.

His hands did replica to hers.

She rested her head against his chest, breathing his scent.

"Thank you for saving my life." Chihiro whispered.

Leaning in Haku planted a soft kiss on her fore head.

Chihiro lifted her head slowly, looking into his eyes.

Smirking she leaned in and kissed him softly on the lips, both their eyes closing as their lips met.

The kiss grew more passionate, filled with lust, passion, love.

The couple managed to make their way to the bed, whilst kissing.

Several hours later in the early hours of the morning

The rain outside still poured, though the couple slept soundly.

Haku woke, to find himself staring at a very some what exposed Chihiro.

Quickly and quietly he covered her with the blankets.

Glancing around the room, he saw the clothes everywhere.

Realizing what they had shared last night, he smiled.

He'd only ever dreamed of sharing this with Chihiro. With the only woman he would ever come to love with his whole heart.

Leaning in he kissed her forehead gently, trying not to wake her.

He moved back, still staring at her face.

Her eyes fluttered open, staring into his.

Realizing how exposed she was, she struggled to pull the covers up around herself.

Haku boldly pulled her closer to him. He was startled as to how quickly she relaxed under his hold.

"Did we..?" Chihiro smirked, looking into his eyes searching for an answer.

Haku nodded with a smile.

"Last night was…." Haku struggled with words.

Chihiro giggled. "There are some things that are just too wonderful to be described."

Haku smirked. "Well Last night was just so damn wonderful I have no words to describe it."

Chihiro smirked.

Gently Haku reached over and brushed her cheek with his fingers.

"I love you Chihiro. I love you more than any man could ever love a woman." Haku said softly, his words said with passion.

"I love you too Haku." Chihiro whispered back.

After a few minutes of silence, Chihiro asked. "What time is it?"

"5am." Haku answered.

Chihiro groaned. "So early." She closed her eyes.

"We can always go back to sleep." Haku suggested.

Chihiro smiled. "That will be nice."

Haku nodded. "Indeed."

Chihiro snuggled closer to Haku, closing her eyes.

"Sleep well Chihiro." Haku whispered.

Smiling, she drifted into deep sleep, closely followed by Haku.
