A/N: this just popped into my head so I thought what the hell and I wrote it down.

Sasuke's Last Words.

He knew his time was approaching. He could feel it in the air. He had to tell her, tell her how he really felt. "Sakura" Sasuke moaned out from his room. Sakura who had been taking care of him came running in. "Yes Sasuke, What is it?" "Please sit down Sakura, there is something I need to tell you." Sasuke said in a voice that was weak but commanding. Sakura sat down unsure of what to make of this latest behavior from Sasuke. He had been so strange lately like he had been wanting to tell her something but has too much pride to do so. As she sat there by his bed she watched as he gathered his thoughts. "There is something I have been needing to tell you but as I feel the end coming I believe that I need to go ahead and tell you before my time here is up. Sakura, for the longest time I have watched you fall behind Naruto and I but then you always catch back up. Even when we went up against Zabuza and Haku you still had the bravery that I admire so much about you. All I want to tell you is that I have seen the way you look at me and blush when I look back at you and even though I call you and Naruto losers, I really enjoyed having you as team mates for these past few years. You always were the brains of most of our missions. Make sure you tell Naruto thanks for me for always trying to out do me and making me push myself and pass my limits with our fierce training. Sakura, I just wanted to tell you how much I …I… how much I…Love…Y…You." Sasuke said with his final amount of energy he had tying him to this world. Now Sakura knew the truth after all these years. He did love her. As she sat there holding Sasuke to her chest she began to weep as she realized that she had no one to live for. There was no one left.
