There is no law or anything saying you mustn't write it in kanji, but it can look un-natural to write absolutely everything in kanji... Especially when most people will write that word in hiragana.

Just for the sake of throwing some random very rough numbers out here lets use google hits:
"貴方" の検索結果 約 19,200,000
"あなた" の検索結果 約 269,000,000

Also I decided to bring it up because I wanted to know why you decided on あなた when Harumaki's user name is clearly visible.
Surely if you have to refer to him Harumakiさん would be better.
And just because I'm on the subject of pronouns, if you don't do it already avoid using pronouns as much as possible.

Hope this helps you out
