This is just a short drabble about what Naruto would say to Sasuke if they ended up dying at the end of Naruto Shippuden. As of right now (2-11-2014) the ending of the series hasn't happened yet, so this is just something that I wrote. I hope it's alright, since it's just last words, it isn't supposed to be too lengthy.
Sasuke… My best friend. You're the closest thing I've ever had to a brother. You helped me achieve my goals, whether you meant to or not. You helped me to reach my full potential. Without you, I might have given up a long time ago. But because of our rivalry, I never gave up. You always have been one of the most important people in my life, and even though to left the village. I never stopped caring about you. I trained harder so that I could find some way, any way at all, to get you to come home. So you could be by my side once again.
I'm so sorry it turned out like this. I really am. I never wished this for us; I just wanted you to be happy with me. That's why I trained for three long years and pursued you through all the obstacles set in my way. It might have been foolish, but I was always striving for a better future for both of us. Maybe you could have helped me when I became Hokage. Maybe I could have inspired you the way you inspired me.
Now, as we lay here together on the dusty ground, a mere hand's-reach away from each other… I see everything that we could have had if things had just turned out better. With us being alive. I think this is these are the last breaths for both of us. We've both fought and been defeated. We'll never have what I truly wanted for us. But maybe this is all for the best.
I reach out my hand to you Sasuke, as we breathe our last, and touch two of my blood-stained fingers to yours. And as my vision fades and I take my last breath, I smile a little and whisper "welcome home…"
