The snow fell lightly upon the pavement of the crowded streets. Lights hung low from the shops and the aromas of food drifted through the air. Chihiro watched the snow fall in front of her eyes, but she soon saw past that and looked upon the crowded streets before her. She had seen nothing like the sight before her, decorations hung everywhere and a warming spirit drifted among the streets.
"This is beautiful," she whispered, her breath curling into the air.
"I know," Haku replied as he stood beside her. "That's why I wanted to bring you back, I wanted to experience my favorite time of the year with you. The time for a new beginning, the time where promises are kept. Chihiro don't think I forgot about you."
"I know you didn't," she said with a smile. "I would've waited longer if I had to."
"You wouldn't have to do that because I wouldn't have made you wait any longer."
Haku extended his arm out and pulled the chestnut hair girl into his chest. Both of his arms snaked around her and hers snaked around him. Both of them stood in an embrace for some time. The snow continued to fall around them, the night sky twinkled with the many heavenly stars, and spirits bustled through the streets. None of those things mattered to them though at the moment. All that mattered was they were with each other once more, and even they knew, no time, universe, or world could separate them. She would cross any boundary to see him, and he would do the same for her.
Nothing could stop them from meeting one another, even the Gods could see that. A special bond would continue to grow between the two, a bond that could never be broken by the likes of humans or spirits. That bond would continue to grow in the oncoming years. They would see each other again, Haku and Chihiro knew that for a fact. they wouldn't let the years pass without contact, for they would cross the gates of the two worlds to see one another.
This time of year would mark the first of their many meetings and their growing relationship. The winter wonderland they were surrounded by would help them remember the things that could occur in a time of miracles. Chihiro knew for a fact that miracles did come true because she had experienced one, she had experienced a winter solstice miracle she would hold dear to her heart. this miracle would mark the wonderful years to come, the years that would change her life for the better.
