It was always the same feelings, the same routine, the same words.
"Come back home! We can fix this!"
"Teme!"
"Sasuke..."
"I'll bring you home, it's a promise!"
Sasuke smudged the blood bewteen his fingers, droplets of red fell amoung silver and the spilliage of sweat. Eyes dulled, he fixed his gaze on the motionless body of Uzimaki Naruto.
"How can I become hokage, when I can't even save a friend...?"
Shutting his eyes as his vision became distorted; Sasuke took a few steps towards the Orange clothed Ninja. The blonde tilted his head slightly as he heard the sound of a blade unshealthing, and it sung; it's ring thickened and then died in a matter of seconds. Naruto smiled, and lifted his heavy arms to grab hold of Sasuke's leg. Naruto accepeted death, only this sort of death where he could go out knowing he tried.
"Sasuke..." Naruto croaked. Sasuke opened his eyes, so numb, so cold. His arms were lifted above his head, but the blade shook. Naruto's tired smile grew and his eyes filled with a rush of life. "You were the first one... I..." A few tears escaped from Naruto and his last words were muffled in a chrous of chokes.
It wasn't meant to end this way, they were both meant to die... Sasuke and Naruto together; yet here Naruto was; dying... and not by Sasuke's hand. Rain poured down but it wasn't rain that rolled down Sasuke's face as much as he wanted to deny it; it wasn't the truth. Something that couldn't be undone. Sasuke although seeminly emotionless was breaking down. Flames of the past has rolled across his flesh and consumed all of him and left him with hate and death.
It was ironic that at this paticular moment the rain uncovered the emotion that was once stripped from him... love. Sasuke opened his mouth and screamed. Screamed as he brought the blade down to the dirt, and dropped to his knees. Holding himself, Sasuke shook; shook as the cold hit him for the first time in years; shook as the pain of tears took his vision for once. Naruto pulled his hand away from beneath Sasuke's weight and then reached to touch Sasuke's face, not quite long enough to reach it.
His arm dropped as Sasuke looked up at him, his blue eyes began to dim. This was enough; Sasuke had been pushed. Reaching over, he embraced the young man and clung to his almost lifeless body.
"I love you..."
Naruto smiled tiredly, his eyes filled with a last glint of happiness before it disappeared and his body went still.
'Sorry Sasuke, this is the last time'
And the world faded to black
Sasuke opened his eyes, glancing over at his brothers body he noticed that Itachi's eyes were open and red. Smiling so softly, Sasuke closed his eyes once more and dreamed a dream without death. Naruto and him.
He knew then what he had to do...
He knew then that the only way to save Naruto was to disguse himself as a tratior just like Itachi did.
And at the end, probably dying like Itachi; he would tell Naruto that he'd always been home.
Because Naruto was always with him.
Ok I agree it was quite bad. I basically wanted to put my feelings into why I still think that Sasuke is still a good person. Plus of course I love Sasunaru/Narusasu, I do hope the manga has a Shounen Ai ending or at least Sasuke confessing his feelings to Naruto because he said himself that Naruto is his most important person x I do not own Naruto, or the characters, the title of this fic is from the song title by My Chemical Romance which I also do not own. I make no money from writing this.
