Her arms locked around his shoulders before he could even register what she was doing. Burying her face in the crook of his neck, she whispered, "I'm so sorry that this happened to you." Itachi's eyes widened in shock; no one, not one person ever, had apologized to him. No one had ever viewed this as something that had happened to him. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is not my own story.

Sakura Haruno is a shy, reserved 17 year old girl. She was outgoing if you got to know her, but no one ever did. She had one friend growing up. Ino Yamanaka. They drifted apart freshman year when Ino became friends with the popular kids. She spent most her highschool years alone. Sasuke Uchiha was the opposite. He was a stoic, shadowed boy. He ruled the school with every girl on their knees for him and every guy wanting to be cool with him. People either admired him or envied him. No in between. What happens when one lonely night Sakura decides to text Ino but realizes she texted the wrong number? What happens when said wrong number and her build a close friendship? What happens when he realizes he's developed feelings for her? -Highschool Au-

(AU) Sarada Uchiha finally gets her big break and is on her way to Konoha to step foot onto the big stage, the next step in her career as a star. Meanwhile Boruto Uzumaki a second year at Konoha University, broke and confused, with a crappy job and trashy studio apartment. With nothing going his way he questions the choices he's made throughout his life. This is the story of how their lives and views change as they get to know each other. This story is intended for mature audiences.

In the bustling halls of Konoha National University, Boruto Uzumaki was known as the star player of the school's volleyball team. With his unrivaled agility and lightning-fast reflexes, he led his team to victory time and time again. But amidst the cheers of adoring fans and the thrill of competition, Boruto couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing. Meanwhile, Sarada Uchiha was a track and field sensation, known for her speed and determination on the track. With her sights set on breaking school records and making a name for herself in the world of athletics, she dedicated herself wholeheartedly to her training. But despite her success, Sarada couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness that lingered in the shadows. One fateful day, their paths collided in the most unexpected of ways. As Boruto practiced his serves on the school volleyball court, he caught sight of Sarada sprinting past, her form sleek and graceful as she raced towards the finish line of the track. Intrigued by her athleticism and determination, Boruto found himself drawn to Sarada in a way he couldn't quite explain. And as fate would have it, their paths continued to intersect in the days that followed, each encounter sparking a new connection between them. *I do not own the characters, but the story is mine"

Sakura Haruno/Hatake wasn't supposed to have this life. Not this home. Not this family. Not these people. But somehow, she found all of it. A brother who protects her like she's made of glass. Friends who bring chaos wherever they go. And a boy- Who barely speaks, yet somehow says everything. Sasuke Uchiha was never meant to care. But Sakura was never meant to be ignored. And somewhere between laughter, arguments, and quiet moments... Something begins. _______________________________ Disclaimer: All characters belong to Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of Naruto.

Sasuke reunites with a girl he once saved in a park, Sakura, who is now his junior in high school. Though popular, he's secretly a geek and develops feelings for her. However, he faces competition from his geeky friend Naruto and a troublemaking transfer student, Lee. The story follows whether Sasuke can win Sakura's heart or lose his chance forever, inspired by classic John Hughes teen films like Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, and The Breakfast Club.

"You're annoying." Those two words were supposed to be his shield-a harsh truth to push her away before his Uchiha bloodline brought her down with him. But he never expected her to actually listen. Two years after the war, Sasuke returns to the Leaf. He comes back carrying the weight of a missing arm, a shadowed past, and a quiet, heavy guilt. He expects anger. He expects tears. He even expects the familiar warmth of Sakura's welcome. Instead, he finds a wall. Hauntings of her own memories-the cold rejections, the terrifying weight of his genjutsu, and the silence of the frontlines-have changed her. The girl who used to chase him is gone. In her place stands Konoha's Chief Medical Officer: focused, calm, and unreachable. She no longer calls him Sasuke-kun. She no longer smiles when he enters the room. She treats him with the quiet, polite distance of someone who has moved on. When Kakashi sends them on a vital, joint mission outside the village, they are forced into the same space once again. The truth between them is suffocating: both are trapped by feelings they cannot speak. Sasuke is convinced that standing beside her will only bring her danger; Sakura is certain that opening her heart again will break what little she has rebuilt. Can two people who only speak in silence find their way back to each other? Or will the things they leave unsaid keep them apart forever? 📌 A slow-burn, heavy angst-with-comfort SasuSaku story set in the Blank Period. Canon-divergent exploration of trauma, PTSD, and emotional accountability.
