Disclaimer: Yeah...you should know by now damn it. -.-
Warnings: shounen ai...yadda yadda...Sasunaru..blah blah...you knew what, you should know by now that this is a Sasunaru, they are in love, and I'm highlighting that fact. -ish feelin' not so peppy-
Notes: These lyrics are from a M212 (Midnight to Twelve) song off their bootleg album. XD They toured with Udora, and OH. MY. GODS. Are they ever god-like and fucking great! I'll have you know I will consider it a personal insult if you do not take a quick look at their site! (m212 dot com)and maybe listen to a tune or two, trust me, it's not a waste of time. THEY FUCKING ROCK!
-cough-
Anyways yeah, here is the crappy fic's final chappie. -.-;;

And I mean the things I say.'

It was over. Finally it was over, Naruto had come for him, Sasuke could barely believe it, but deep down he'd hoped, kami-sama how he had hoped. It had hurt, physically, mentally, it had hurt so bad to be away from him. The visits weren't enough though they had become more frequent after he'd spoken to Naruto, the boy seemed happy and Sasuke had selfishly wished he'd had a part in that. He had happily fooled himself.
But that was all over now, because Naruto had come and fought for him, and he was still important to the blonde. He couldn't count the times in sound, while watching the darkness take form, creeping into his mind and taking hold, that he had summoned Narutos image to keep it at bay.
Some day we'll meet again.
Some day we'll be okay.
He'd hoped it with everything he had even as his logic ridden mind had screamed he was wrong. And now it was happening, he felt he could burst, implode with the joy that threatened him with the same tears he'd refused to shed and probably never would.

Look into my eyes.
You make my world go round
Waiting for the day.
When I return.
Let it burn.'

/Finally.../
The forest seemed alive, more so because the presence at his side. He'd finally done it. He was bringing Sasuke home. The achievement was stained with the fact of Sasukes leaving in the first place, but Naruto knew, he knew how far someone would go for the wish to complete a dream they had harbored for so long. He knew the frustration of not being strong enough, good enough...for not being enough...
/I wasn't enough to keep you there.../
But Naruto had fought and won, he'd won Sasuke back. Everything seemed...better. A filling feeling settled in the pit of his stomach, like the plumpness you feel after a large meal, wanting to smile while leaning back and grinning...
/I'll be enough this time Sasuke./
Naruto was going to be an anchor for the Uchiha, and they both knew he would need it, because even without words they understood.

'Here I go again,
And I'm chasing the wave without you there.
Don't know how it'll end,
All I know is I need you with me.'

It could be a dream, and it probably was, Sasuke would awake in Sound seeped in a cold sweat with the demanding body next to him, it would hurt, but a dream this sweet hurt worse.
Looking to Naruto Sasuke spoke, his voice sounding forgien to his own ears, there was no need for talk in sound, he'd been less than an animal there, less than a human.
"They are going to hate me back there, you know that?"
Naruto blinked at him then broke out into a large grin, "Well...I don't hate you."
The words echoed through him, reverberating through his very being to latch onto his heart and he felt his body relax. Here with Naruto like this...he felt he could go through it again and again, because if he was able to see Narutos face, bathe in that smile, then he needed nothing else. He could be the wilting flower in the deep dark of Sound, because his sunshine, his light would always seek him out.
"You don't hate me...?" Naruto smiled more, walking once again while speaking, his voice brushing the clouds from the sky to make it the perfect day, the perfect day to go home, back to Konoha, with Naruto. The perfect day he hadn't thought he would ever see...

'It all begins to fade into just one long memory
From place to place.
And face to face
And you're the only one I see.'

"I don't hate you." I love you.
The words were spoken in his head but he knew them true, he'd known them to be true since Sasuke left, since before then even. He wanted to run into the forest screaming it with all the happiness that threatened his small form.
/I love him, kami-sama...I love so much./
He needn't worry about acceptance, he knew he had it, after all, no one understood Sasuke like Naruto did. No one could feel what Sasuke did because in the whole world there wasn't another Uzumaki Naruto and in the whole world, there was no other Uchiha Sasuke. And right now, that was all they needed. He may tell the boy, speak it into the soft shell of a pale ear, lean into the broad back before him and wrap his arms around his phantom, proving to himself that Sasuke was really there, then bare his soul.
/I love you./
Yeah he may tell him one day...because now he knew Sasuke wouldn't run away, and neither would he.
"I love you..."
The two boys stopped walking, Sasuke ahead by a few feet, turning and locking his gaze with Narutos. Everything was frozen and in that moment the universe was made up of two coal black eyes. Softly he spoke, his words drifting through the air to join Narutos as they hung between the two boys, the two men...the two who would no longer race toward the future, but meet it together...
"Naruto..."

Everything looks the same.
Time is losing sound,
As I wake up screaming your name.
When I return.
