Disclaimer:Can I have it? Pleasepleasepleasepleeeease! (Every time I ask this, I STILL don't own Gravitation. Hmmf!)

Author's note: I'm sorry about yesterday. I know I forgot to make anew chapter! I was really busy because I had to babysit some kids at my school. (This has been happening every wednsday). Please don't think I gave up when this happens! I'm either busy or too lazy. I felt really bad about ti though. Sorry! (It seems like all I do is apologize). Huh. Go figure.

If you want to see the wonderful piece of work from which I elicited my motivation for this story from, make sure you check out QuackSays the Duck's Together poem!

Pairings:Since this is pretty much all a tragedy story, I don't think there will be any. Also I'm flaky towards that sort of thing. So-sorry!If you consider sort of a love connection a pairing, then it's Yuki X Shuichi.


You Give Me the Courage to Die-Chapter 10- Tomorrow

Yuki groggily awoke to someone grabbing his shoulder.

"Sir? You're going to have to leave now, sir. I'm sorry."

"Whaaa…" he said as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. He looked up to see a nurse. It was not the same one from before; this one was a little rounder and a bit cheerier looking. Yuki recalled why he what he was doing in the hospital room. "What time is it?"

"It's about seven sir. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, but it is this hospital's policy. You're lucky they even let you sleep this late." The nurse made it sound like a good thing to have him leave.

"But I can't leave him! What if he wakes up if I'm gone?" Yuki was immensely worried for the moment.

"If that happens, I'll have someone phone you and you may be able to come down."

Yuki sighed heavily. "Thanks lady." He picked up his bloody jacket and started putting it on. He quickly realized the stains, and threw it to the floor. He turned and left the room, leaving the nurse looking quite offended.

When Yuki walked past the front desk, nobody spoke. There was the same nurse as before sitting there, but there was no 'Have a good night sir!' or 'We'll see you again, Uesugi-san!'. He walked through the big glass doors, shoving them harder than he probably should have.

The sky had cleared up a little, and the road was wet. He saw a few people on the way home, but not many. The sun was setting, and cast an orange glow onto the clouds. There was no breeze, yet the air was cool. Eiri stared up at the clouds for awhile and then down at the sidewalk. He stopped for a moment and sighed. He reached into an imaginary pocket to grab his smokes. He growled when he realized that they were in his coat. He kept walking on homewards. Despite the bitterness of his mood, he was enjoying the cool air and the calm sunset.

When Eiri got home he threw himself onto his bed. He had closed his eyes as he passed through the living room. After his walk home had cheered him up, he didn't want to ruin it by having all the bad memories come back. He had been working late into the night on his latest novel the past few weeks. He was extremely tired, when he actually thought about it. He changed his clothes and went to sleep, wondering if Shuichi would get a strong grip on life.


Hope you enjoyed this one!
