Sorry I haven't touched this story in a while. But here is the final chapter in the series. (Hope all my faithful reviews come back!) Please don't kill me!!!

Gravitation is not mine. The lovely and talented Maki Murakami does.

Breaking-up, Coming Together, and The End

Chapter 5

Shuichi sat on a toilet seat. Ceramic tiles and bright yellow walls mocking his despair.

'Why did he have to come? Or why did I?' Shuichi grabbed more toilet paper from the silver dispenser.

'Eiri. Why do you play with my heart so? I broke up with you. So how come I can't get over you? Did I make a fatal mistake?

'Don't take this wrong. But Eiri, you looked horrible. I've never seen you so pale and lifeless before. Has she done that to you? Or have I?

'Please don't take it personal if I might say, I hope it is me causing your suffering. Like you cause mine. Maybe then I have a chance at winning back your heart, if you can look beyond my foolish past. Oh Eiri. I love you so.'

"Take me back." breathed Shuichi.

Codling his head in his hands, Shuichi let all sadness go. Tears flew down his face at no avail. Minutes past, tears never pausing to stop. A soft knock shattered Shuichi's world of sorrow.

"Shuichi. It's me Eiri. Let me in... please."

Brushing away his tears, Shuichi opened the door. Standing before him looking as distraught as he, was Eiri.

A silence. Then Eiri spoke, "Shuichi. Why are you crying?"

Shuichi smiled. "I'm crying because of you. You won't leave me alone. No matter how hard I tried to let you go, you were always there, standing right in front of me. Eiri..."

Eiri sealed the distance between himself and Shuichi in a few quick strides. He scooped Shuichi in his arms, wrapping his love in a tender hug. "Shuichi. You've plagued me too. No matter how I tried to tell myself it was over, I couldn't bare the fact that our relationship had creased to exist. I told myself you were nothing to me, but Shuichi you are everything. I've missed you so much."

Shuichi loosened Eiri's hold to face Eiri eye to eye. "Eiri?"

"Yes, Shuichi?"

"What about the raven-haired beauty I saw you with? The one I saw you with on the night I left?"

Blue eyes softened. "Her? She's my new publisher."

"Oh."

"Did you think else wise?"

Shuichi felt slightly ashamed and looked down at the blue floor tiles. "Maybe."

Shuichi felt Eiri inhale a big breath. "Don't worry Shuichi. You were the only one for me for the longest time. You still are. If you forgive me for acting like such a jerk."

Smiling a sincere smile, Shuichi gazed into Eiri's eyes. "I think I can do that. Sakano getting tired of me any ways."

"Good."

With that, Eiri bent down and entrapped Shuichi's lips with his own.

The End

Um ya. Okay, Eiri was out of character. The ending kind of sucked. I meant to have a better ending. Eiri was going to write a song about Shuichi, Shuichi would hear it, love would happen. Or a different ending, like this... Eiri would go to Shuichi's apartment and confess his love, tell Shuichi he was a dope, and ask him to marry him.

But well that didn't happen. Why? I like soap opera endings? I'm just to lazy to do a different ending? I actually like this kinda rushed ending? Maybe all the above. But what ever the ending, I hope you liked it! I write for my fans you know!

So once again, I want to thank my faithful reviewers. May you read another one of my fic's soon, or may I read one of yours in the future.

(Again sorry it took me so long to post the last chapter. I just didn't, and still don't like how this story worked out. So I was very reluctant to post this last chapter. But here it is. I was so fed up with this fic that I re-did the ending. It was so much longer, but I think this one even though it's shorter is the better ending.)

Chuse,
