Chapter 8: The talk

Sorry this took so long to update but I have been really busy for the pass week or so. My cusion came over and started to bugg me a lot and he wont shut up, he looking over my shoulder right now but I really don't care. Ok on with the story.

Last: She happily ran out side and bumped into some one. Which mad her fall on the ground. "Ouch! My nose is taking a beating." "Are you alright?" he lended a hand to help her to her feet. She stopped rubbing her nose and grabbed his hand. He pulled her up, he should have stepped back because once she was up there faces were at least an 1 in and an ½ away from each other.

Chihiro really didn't notice because her eyes were closed, as soon as she opened them she saw his chin. She then looked up and saw green emrald eyes lock with hers.

"Are you okay?" He asked. "Yes. but what are you doing here? She asked quickly turned her stare from his eyes to the ground. "well I thought you was hurt. So I came to help you…." he trailed of realizing exactly what he was saying then he added " hey don't take it as a sighn of a new friendship its only to help my self."

"and how is making sure that im safe helping you?" Chihiro asked her voice growing louder. "you know that wasn't very nice what you said to the pigs." haku stated changing the subject with a little smirk on his face. "so you did hear me." she asked standing up straight.

"I wasn't trying to be mean or any thing. I was just happy to be around the twins for once and they weren't talking my ears of."she thought to her self while yelling "since when am I suppose to be nice? They got me in the same situation my parents got me into six years ago. Do they think I like working for Yubaba just to set them free? Them, the people who didn't listen to me in the first place."

"Humans girls" haku mumbled to him self but loud enough that Chihiro herd him which really pissed her off. "And whats that suppose to mean?" she asked in a deadly tone while adding "why do spirits always say humans like we are not equal? Yeah we may not bow or curtsey all the time. However, aleast when we see a spirit acting all weird we don't mumble spirits under are breath.

Haku balled up his fist trying to hold his anger in but it was to much to hold he was getting sick of her yelling and she was really flipping his switch. Chihiro was now looking at haku with her hard eyes.

She could see him trying to hold back his anger his hands shaking and his eyes doing the same until he bust. "no were not equal." he told her while his soft eyes turned hard and cold like her's in just a split second then he added "You may not bow or curtsey but you still don't have respect. You humans are selfish , you walk the world thinking every thing is yours." He told her in a voice matching his eyes cold and hard.

"Everybody isn't like that, I'm sure as hell isn't!" she practically yelled at him in his face.

"How am I suppose to know that!" he asked in her own tone level.

"heres some advise maybe if you just shut up and stop mumbling HUMAN under your breath you might just figure it out! You act like you're the most perfect person in both worlds. She said lowering her voice and backing away from his face then adding "at least that's what you try to act like. You try so……

Chihiro didn't get to finish her sentence for haku punched her. "what? I should have block that, what happen to my reaction?" Chihiro toched her mouth with her finger and pulled away to look at it and saw blood.

Haku saw Chihiro pause. Her head turned to the right and facing down. He was a bit surprise she was still standing. He then saw her check her mouth. When she saw blood her left eye looked at him with anger in it and said "your gonna pay for that"then she jumped on him like a lion. After hitting the ground they were rolling around like to kids hitting each other. "I'm not going to go easy on you just because you're a girl" he said punching her. "good I rather be treated equal then less value." she said grabbing his hand as he was about to hit her again, and punched him with the other.

After all that rolling around they finally came to a stop. Haku was hovering over Chihiro with his hand pinning her down practically crushing her shoulder. Chihiro was below him of course with a tight grip on his shoulder. Crushing his aswell.

As soon as she looked him in the eyes hers soften up and so did the grip on his shoulder. Haku's eyes did the same as he stopped grushing her shoulders and put them on the out side.

Both still looking in the eyes that calmed them down. Then out of nowhere Chihiro asked "why did you kiss me back?" a moment after that she added "last night when you held out your hand to shown me that I wasn't disappering anymore" then again she repeted the question "why did kiss me back?"

There was an akward silence that came across the two as he stood up straight and backed away giving Chihiro just enough room to get up too.

Chihiro could see that he was thinking, the way he would look anywhere but at her. It looked like he also wanted to know why he kissed her back. "I don't know why" he said breaking the silence among the two and then added "it felt like the right thing to do."

Haku looked up at her and started again "now that you mention it why did you kiss me in the first place?" Chihiro blushed at the question as she was trying to avoid eye contact. It was now Chihiro turn to think. Putting them back in complete silence.

"Something inside was telling me to." She answered after a moment while playing with her hands.

Haku could see this conversation was a little embarrassing to talk about for both of them so he decided to change the subject. Haku took a deep breath remembering how he tried to change the subject before and miserably failed. After a moment of thinking he finally found some thing.

"So….how long have you been a swimmer?" he asked with hope that she was a swimmer. "4 years" she answered, relived that he changed the subject then she asked curiously "wait how do you know I'm a swimmer?"

A/N sorry I got to go and guess what I found another way to keep what I rated this story the same. So I hope you like and please review. sorry this took so long and I will update in a week. Until then ta tah for now.
