Konnichiwa, Sakuma here. Everyone seems to be gender-confused today. Oh well, here's chapter nine:
Yuki woke up the next morning at 6 am. He wasn't sure why he woke up that early, but he did. He got dressed in the now-dry clothes he was wearing yesterday and walked outside. He started jogging around the block. He jogged about 5 times, then went back inside.

When he returned, Ritsu was awake, and looked nervous.

"Are you OK?" Yuki asked.

"YUKI! There you are! I was worried that something happened to you. I'm sorry," Ritsu said.

"Its OK, I just went jogging," Yuki reassured.

"Oh, thank kami-sama you're alright," Ritsu said.

"I'm going to head home. Thank you for letting me stay," Yuki said.

"You're welcome, and I'm sorry," Ritsu replied.

This time, Yuki didn't go straight home. He decided to go see if his brother was OK. Yuki reached his brother's room and slowly opened the door. Ayame was sitting up, staring at the wall.

Yuki didn't know what to say. Ayame looked at Yuki and looked extremely angry. Yuki had never seen his brother look so angry before. It was scary.

"I told you to stay away from broken people," Ayame said, not looking at Yuki.

"I want to help," Yuki said.

"Then let me die," Ayame said miserably," Let me die so I can be with Shigure and Hatori.

Now Yuki was furious. He marched up to Ayame, and slapped him right across the face. Ayame no longer looked angry, but stunned.

"Stop it! Stop wallowing in self-pity! I lost some of my friends, but I didn't act depressed or try to kill myself! There are still plenty of people who love you," Yuki yelled.

Ayame still looked pretty stunned. His cheek was still red from where Yuki slapped him.

"I want you to live," Yuki said.

Ayame smiled, and embraced his brother. The two started laughing.

"You know, you hit like a girl," Ayame joked.

"I better you hit worse," Yuki joked.

Ayame was able to leave the hospital later that day. He stated going to counseling, reopened his shop, and in a few weeks was back to his old self.

As for Yuki, he started high school again. He was behind everyone else in his grade, but he managed to pass. A year later he graduated, and applied for college. He got into the third college he applied to and prepared himself to move out of Ayame's house.

"I'll miss you", Ayame said, while helping Yuki pack the last box.

"I'll be sure to call you, and visit too," Yuki assured.

"Oh, did you here?" Ayame asked.

"Here what?" Yuki asked.

"The new cat was born a few days ago," Ayame said.

"Boy or girl?" Yuki asked.

"Girl. She was named Sakurako," Ayame said.

"I hope she'll live longer than Kyo did," Yuki said.

Yuki smiled as he thought of Kyo. He felt the sunshine on his pale face, as if Kyo was smiling back at him. The future no longer looked bleak.

THIS IS THE END! Yup, this is the last chapter, but if enough people (at least 2)

Want me to make a sequel, I'm up to it.
