After years together, Naruto and Sasuke don't know how to make it work anymore, but with time apart they might be able to figure it out.

Sasuke Uchiha has always wallowed in his pessimism and never knew what home truly meant. After his two plus years of atonement away from Konoha, he returns and his internal monologue spirals him into a world of confusion about the emotions he feels for his closest friend, Naruto Uzumaki. However, unsure of how to approach these emotions and whether or not they will be reciprocated, Sasuke treads delicately, deeply exploring his emotional longing for the blonde.

It's Christmas time, Naruto's less favorite time of the year. All he wanted was to be left alone to let the year pass him by, but his best friends would not let him stay cooped up in his gloomy apartment. Who knew that Naruto would find a surprise that he desperately wants to unwrap in a gay bar? HEAVY SMUT| OOC SASUKE | TOP NARUTO | SASUKE IN LINGERIE (don't like? don't read!)

TOP NARUTO | BOTTOM SASUKE | NARUSASU | DETAILED SMUT | YAOI ONE SHOT | MODERN AU ............. Naruto gave his trademark smile, his biceps flexing large and in charge, sitting on the bar, as his blue eyes cut over to see onyx eyes staring him down. "Naruto." His voice was low as he spoke his introduction, taking the victim's hand with a soft caress before leaning down to give the back of the warm hand a swooning kiss. Giggles spilled from their lips as Naruto leaned back casually, his gaze appraising them slowly. With his legs spreading slightly, the posture of extreme confidence, Naruto glanced over at the devil with the onyx eyes and the tight little fishnet shirt and gave a cocky smirk, his eyebrow raising in mischief as his eyes danced and teased saying, ' This could be you...' Or Naruto dragged his sleep deprived ass to a club, in hopes of getting lucky. But the game changes from getting lucky to saving face, when he is challenged by a dark haired man with a blank stare and an ass that just won't quit. * Spoiler alert: it's Sasuke. #1 for the tag #topnaruto on 11/3/2023

Naruto is always waiting for Sasuke. And he's not dramatic! Though their kids think otherwise. Sasuke might also maybe be dramatic. Post-war, Canon-deviation. Additional Tags: Sasuke adores his kids and is now a softie; they get the family they deserve; wow they have 9 kids; this all tooth-rotting fluff; they are both so dramatic and the kids are over it. This used to be one part - now idk what it is anymore hehe I just keep adding more and more

In the uneasy calm after the Fourth Shinobi War, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha are forced into an arranged marriage to ensure Sasuke is not euthanised by the Council after the war. Between clashing tempers, unspoken feelings, and comedic chaos that only they can cause, the two heroes find themselves tangled in politics, loyalty, and a bond that grows far deeper than either expected. Equal parts banter, heartache, and unexpected intimacy, this story explores what happens when two rivals must learn to live-and love-side by side.

Months after the Fourth Shinobi War, Naruto and Sasuke return as heroes-but peace doesn't mean life gets simpler. Between Naruto shadowing Kakashi to learn Hokage duties and Sasuke being sent on dangerous, secret missions, they barely have time together. But when missions, jealousy, and unexpected confessions throw them back into each other's orbit, the line between rivalry and love begins to blur. From comedic bickering and awkward denials to tender intimacy and found family, this is the story of two stubborn shinobi who discover that the hardest battle isn't against enemies-it's against their own hearts.

Ranked #1 sasunaru (01/12/2023) (08/25/2023) Ranked #1 narusasu (01/16/2023-01/25/2023) (01/27/2023-01/30/2023) Cannon plot~~ Naruto has really gone into a spiral. Things weren't the same anymore. He chased Sasuke ever since he left the village. He's now 18 and finally talked to him. But it didn't go the way he wanted it to. He still couldn't bring him back. Even after having a heart to heart with him. Until he did bring him back, with stipulations of course. This is when he lost control. When he realized they were friends, until they weren't anymore. Things changed. Faster then he could keep track of. This story shows the side of Naruto that everyone assumed wasn't existent. Until Sasuke showed them. This story does contain GRAPHIC CONTENT! PLEASE WATCH FOR WARNINGS! ⚠️ Please watch for warnings. SasuNaru story. Don't like it then dont read. Thanks in advance! 🌀_🌀 (FINISHED: 01/12/2023) I don't own Naruto or any rights to it, pictures are also not mine ❌

Part two: Naruto has been through the hoops, and that's probably an understatement. Sasuke died at his feet and barely came back to life, his son is being consumed by someone who refers to himself as a God, Kawaki is on the fence of being protected, and not to mention his so called "rival" has made a turn in their friendship to an unavoidable degree. Love? Is that what this is? What about their wives? Their kids? What about the village that's in danger? What now? A/N: (So many of you asked for this so I suppose I can deliver. Those of you who have not read "How it all ended" may want to read it to understand the context. If not, no worries there will be a recap in chapter one. Thanks in advance again for reading this!) this does include a KawakiXBoruto nearing the end. But strickly pg13
