This chapter is written as if the curse didn't break yet (let's just pretend that the whole Kyo being locked up thing didn't exist)

"Yuuuukkii!"

My eye twitched at the voice. I hurried my pace, trying to keep up with Kyo and Miss Honda. Once we were in the field, my brother could no longer be a nuisance to me. I passed the fence, where only graduating seniors and teachers were allowed. But it was no use. There was no stopping my brother.

"Oh Yuki! My dear brother. How I've missed you!"

I felt two arms being draped over me, caging me next to the idiot I am forced to call my brother.

"Brother! You're not allowed to be here! Please leave!"

"But I just wanted to see you and congratulate you!"

"You can do that AFTER the ceremony. Right now I need to go."

I felt my blood circulation being cut off and coughed trying to breathe and I was squeezed tighter into the hug.

"Whatever you say Yuki! But remember, I'll be here waiting for you. I'll always be waiting for you! Because that's what brothers do. Who cares if our parents aren't here? They aren't worthy to see you gr…"

"Let go of me!"

I was finally released and he rushed over to my cousin and friend. We walked over to the seats placed for them on the field in a straight orderly line. I sat down in my seat, which was obviously in the first row, which was granted to the highest achieving students. Surprisingly, Kyo was sitting right next to me. Kyo really was a sly cat. He seemed so carefree, but he sneakily had gotten grades as good as him and had been involved many extracurricular activities undercover. I felt bad about Miss Honda who was sitting several rows behind them according to alphabetical order. I sighed. At least she was graduating.

"Now the president will come up to give a speech!"

I rose to go to the stage. There were several cheers echoing throughout the area. I heard many declare their love for me. Some were screaming like maniacs. Others were blowing kisses. I went up the stairs and stood at the podium. I had rehearsed my speech so many times I had it memorized. I spoke of our successes, our freedom, our maturity, our life. I thanked everyone for making me their leader and heard several more cheers at this. I saw Kyo slouch down in his sit in annoyance and roll his eyes. Our eyes met and he gave me an uninterested side smile and a thumb up. I looked over to Miss Honda. She had her hands clasped. I smiled at her while still talking and she mouthed something. I'm not sure what, but I felt so glad to had been able to go through these years with her. I saw Kakeru who was also in the front and he threw me fan girly kisses. It was hard to keep my composure. I felt so happy. I wrapped up my speech with a final thank you. I stepped to the side and was just about ready to go back to my seat.

"Now, we will have a few more words said by…"

"I want to say something, too!"

I froze on the spot. I turned around to see him running towards the stage. My jaw dropped as he stepped up to the podium and pushed my principal out of the way and dragged me back into his arms.

"This is my brother! As you all probably know, he is truly amazing! I'm so proud that he followed down my footsteps and became president of this school. Everyone in the Sohma family loves him so much! Except for maybe little Kyon-kichi over there. Hahaha! Don't look at me like that Kyon-kichi! Even Miss Honda loves my Yuki so much. Oh look! She's blushing! They think no one knows, but I know they truly love each other. Who wouldn't love my Yuki!"

"Brother!"

"I am sure he will go far in life. He will be much better than all of you! Don't worry, all of you will do fine as well, but my Yuki will…"

"Brother! Stop it!"

"But Yuki! I want everyone to know how much you are loved!"

At this many more people cheered. In agreement with his words.

"Brother, please leave!"

Why wasn't anyone making him leave? I turned to our principal and teachers. It seemed as if everyone was mystified by him. Some were whispering at how beautiful he was with his silver hair. The female teachers were squealing about how they always had wondered if I had an older brother. I looked over to my brother who had continued his speech.

"That's enough! Will you just get lost! Not all of us have all day to just sit her and listen about your precious brother!"

"Oh! Kyon-kichi! You're so mean! Isn't he mean? None of you girls should ever marry him!"

I took a handful of his hair and dragged him off stage.

"Oh! That hurts! Ok then! Bye everyone!"

I let go of him once we got to the fence.

"Now stay HERE!"

I turned around and marched angrily back to the podium.

"Sorry about that. We'll now continue the ceremony."

I retook my seat, trying to keep a smile on my face. The ceremony went by slowly. Finally we walked out of the field and everyone dispersed to their friends and family. Many people came up to give me flowers and gifts.

"Oh Yuki!"

I saw my brother coming closer to me with his arms wide open.

"Stop right there! I have no desire to talk to you!"

"But Yuki!"

"You ruined my graduation! I just want to go home!"

"Yuki! Wait! Oh no! What have I done? My brother! He will never love me now!"

He threw hand head back, the back of his wrist to his forehead. I just turned around and walked away from the drama queen.

"Oh! There he is!"

I saw a couple of my teachers. They were all giggling and looking towards my brother. Ick! What did they see in him?

I just kept walking but then they ran past me, towards my brother. I turned around. My brother was completely off guard. The group of teachers were leaped towards him. I clenched my teeth and shut my eyes.

POOF!

"Oh! Where did he go?"

"He was right here."

"Ahhh! A snake!"

Everyone screamed and ran from the place, except my family and Miss Honda.

"Oh! Why oh why did I have to transform now of all times?"

I looked down threateningly at the moping snake before me. I grinned. Miss Honda gasped, probably noticing the evil intentions in that grin. I reached down and picked up the worthless creature from right below its head. I looked straight at him in the face, smiling.

"Yuki?"

Then I started swinging my arm fiercely. I let go and away he flew in the air. Who know where to. Shigure broke out into a fit of laughter. Even I snickered. I looked over to my cousin and friend who had graduated with me. They were staring at me in shock from seeing this side of me.

"Come. Let's go celebrate our graduation."

With that I walked out satisfied. I never thought I'd say this, but every now and then, this curse can come in handy.

I made this chapter longer than usual. This chapter is written in dedication to everyone who's graduating from high school, middle school, college, or whatever else. This chapter was a little different than usual as I usually write my chapter in first tense of the zodiac the chapter is about, but I felt it would be more interesting this way this time. Hope you liked it!
