RECAP:
"Hello, Chihiro." He choked.
They stood, staring at each other, both their hearts in their stomachs. And suddenly, Chihiro fainted.
NOW:
Haku's reflexes immediately went to action and he caught her right before she hit the ground. His cheeks burned as he held her in his arms.
"Chihiro?" He whispered hoarsely. He shook her lightly, trying to wake her, but she didn't show any sign of awakening. After trying and failing again to wake her, he picked her up bridal style and laid her in the bed. He softened the pillow behind her head and gingerly laid the blankets over her sleeping form. He stood and stared at her with a kind expression.
"I'm sorry I didn't come back for you, Chihiro. I'm sorry I didn't come sooner." He leaned over and kissed her gently on the forehead.
"Thank you," he whispered. "Thank you for coming back to me." Chihiro smiled in her sleep and mumbled something Haku couldn't make out. He smiled at her and left the room to the guest room. After such a day, he needed rest. It took a while for him to get to sleep though. How could he though? The love of his life had abruptly entered his life and rekindled a sudden flame he thought had long ago been put out. But sleep eventually crept into this thoughts and he fell into the land of dreams, imagining someone in a room only 10 feet away from him. And only last thought slipped into his mind as the darkness of sleep took him:
'Is she dreaming of me too?'

Chihiro lay in sleep, but she was surprised. When sleep took hold of her, the Spirit World always came rushing to her mind. But not this time. Instead, she was surrounded by a soft light, a warm feeling. She felt herself in someone's arms, but she dare not look up, for fear of disturbing the peaceful moment. She felt her body go limp and the light blinded her eyes. The arms that had been rested around her picked her up and laid her down on a cushioned surface. For a moment, the strong arms left her, and she felt empty. The emptiness was made up though, she felt a pair of lips pressed gently on her forehead. She smiled, and for once in a terribly long time, she felt ... happy.
