Chapter 2: Explain

Chihiro was in shock right now! But there were two emotions that she felt right now; happiness and anger. She was happy enough to go and hug him but that wasn't going to happen;1) because this was in the middle of class and 2) what if it wasn't him. 'No! This is Haku! Your Haku!'. The brown-haired girl blushed at "your Haku".

But back to the negative feeling, why was she angry if he's finally here? 'Because he waited 5 WHOLE YEARS to come back on a NORMAL DAY!' she answered herself.

"Class," Mr. Yitzy continued. "This is Haku. I want you to make him right at home."

'Should I make him feel at home or should I ignore him like he never came?' Chihiro thought. The thought was obvious. 'I'll see he feels the same way he made me for the past 5 years.' She told herself stubbornly.

She went back to looking at her desk only this time she took the science book that was in front of her and pretended to be studying. But it was hard not to think about Haku since all the girls in the classroom(except her) were whispering how cute his long green hair was, and how strong he looks. How his cat eyes made him look sexy and who will be this guy's girlfriend. 'I hope Haku doesn't have any other classes with me or I'm never get to ignore him.'

Unfortunately, they had the same classes but she was able to get out of his way. She wondered if Haku was trying to talk to her or did he just forget about her? That thought almost made her cry.

Anyway, it was after school already and Chihiro was able to complete her mission…for today. It wasn't easy trying to ignore him. He would almost pop out of everywhere were she was but she always made a turn.

Will this teenager be able to avoid the dragon boy for the rest of the year? If yes, then it would be killing her inside since a part of her wanted to speak with him.

Chihiro had been thinking too long that she barely noticed that she was in front of her house. She walked up the three front steps, got out her keys and was about to stick them through the key hole when a voice from behind caught her attention.

"You didn't even say hello to me Chihiro. Is something wrong?" the voice asked gently.

Chihiro wrapped her arms around herself, her back still in front of him as sobs were about to come out. "Well, yeah! You wait 5 years before coming back as if nothing happened! As if it was barely yesterday I left the spirit world!" her voice was becoming lower with every word she spoke. "As I was never alone all these years." She whispered. There she said it! She told him her reason! She probably thought that Haku that thought she didn't like him anymore and was going to leave her again. She cried quietly as she waited for him to make that move now, the one were he'll leave.

But what shocked her (and made her blush) was that he had walked up the stairs and wrapped his arms around her. She turned around to see his face though she was still pressed against his chest. "I'm sorry Chihiro. I'm sorry for all those years. I know that you were alone and believe me, I wanted nothing more but to come and comfort you but it wasn't easy. Yubaba wouldn't allow me to quit, saying that now that I now her spells and magic, it will be impossible to left her side. So I had to stay for the next five years, listening to her orders and thinking that I'll never be able to see you again. But it would have been more years if Zeniba(sp?) hadn't tricked Yubaba into letting me leave."

"But what are you going to do now?" her voice was still shaky from all the crying.

"Don't worry. Zeniba was able to make a deal with her sister about she, too, running the bath house. But I wouldn't be able to stay in the human side for long so she said once I was done with my business I would be able to come back to the bath house and work there again, only as her apprentice (sp?)"

"So…you're going to leave me again!" she cried.

"I would never be able to live like that again, so to solve both our problems, you'll be coming with me!"

Chihiro was shocked but ever so happy! "Really Haku! I'll be able to stay with you guys!"

Haku grinned and nodded. "Yeah but put on some warm clothes so we can leave. It's almost sunset."

She gasped. "Oh right! Must hurry, but Haku…one more question."

"Anything?"

"Why did come to my class if you're two years older than me?"

"Because I wanted to talk to you."

"Right." She said as she rushed into her house to change (don't ask how it got open)

Haku smiled to himself. He was finally able to see his love again. But then, his smile disappeared when he felt that dark present around them. He kept his eyes open and his ears clear for any movement. 'Who ever you are, leave now or I swear I'll take you down.'

'Well now there, there's something I would like to see' the dark present called back, though Haku wasn't expecting one.

'If it meant protecting Chihiro from you then I'll do it!'

'You are so over protected about Chihiro. Leave her be.'

"Haku!"

'The last time that happened you killed her parents!'

"Haku!"

'Well too bad for them. But remember, I always get what I want.' Then the voice spoke no more.

"HAKU!"

Haku then snapped out of his "conversation". "huh?"

"Haku, are you okay?"

"what?" he looked over at Chihiro, who was wearing a pair of blue jeans and a black sweater, had a worried expression on her face. "Are you alright." She asked.

Haku no longer felt that present and even if he did then he still wouldn't worry Chihiro about it. "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Chihiro didn't believe him but she wasn't going to argue. "Anyway, I'm done."

"Alright then. Let's go." He grabbed her hand and they started to run, but Haku had one more thought on his mind before doing so. (don't know if it makes sense). 'Don't worry Chihiro. I'll protect you. I won't let him hurt you again.'

To be continued…
