Haku held my hand as we ventured deep into the woods. I was slightly unsure of what our mission truly was, but I was so happy to be back. This was my one true home. I was even more glad to be by Hakus side once more. He always found a way to help and make me happy.

I looked up at Haku and choked out, "H-hey , Haku?"

"Yes?"

"Do you like me?"

"Of course! You're one of my very best friends."

She sighed and looked down, walking a bit faster trying to get rid of him. He chased after me yelling out my name. I spotted a trail on my right, and chose to sprint down it. I looked back seeing how Haku was unable to find where I ran. I headed down a little farther, spotting a large rock. I sat on top of it, feeling the tears begin to form. I grew to accept Haku was older than me. I really felt close to him. A large part of me wanted him to like me more then just a stupid old friend.

The dead silence of the woods was soon interrupted by a loud rustling of leaves. I stood up noticing a shadow in the distance, I sighed and spoke out, "Haku! Leave me alone!"

Soon, a familiar voice responded, "Chihiro? Dear, is it you?"
