My Haku!

Seeing him, with just a bridge between us, doesn't seem real. I couldn't believe this. It had been so long since I've felt so alive, ten years! The memories of our times together flooded back, and here he was, right in front of me. My love, my Haku!

He began to walk over the bridge in my direction. Before I knew it, he was standing right in front of me, too good to be true. I blinked a couple of times to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Haku has been etched into my mind since I left, but nothing compared to seeing him at this moment.

To convince myself, I wanted to reach out and touch him, feel the fabric of his shirt at least. Slowly, I raised my arm and outstretched my fingers. To my surprise, he reached out to me, his palm facing me. My fingertips met his palm, and electricity spread up my arm and spread out throughout my body. It was the same feeling I had at ten years old, and it felt spectacular. I stared at our hands.

"Haku.." I whispered, catching my breath at our touch. "I can't believe it's you."

He chuckled, and I looked up at him with awe. His eyes were the same shade of green I had fallen in love with.

Haku lowered his arm, holding my hand in his. He stepped closer and leaned his forehead against mine. My heartbeat sped up.

"I've waited so long, Chihiro," he breathed, grinning. "I knew you'd come back."

I closed my eyes at the feel of his breath, savoring this feeling, but opened them quickly, for fear of him disappearing. He took my other hand into his grasp. And as the moonlight shined above us, I wanted nothing more than to stay like this forever.
