Under the same sky (naruto x reader)

In a world of shinobi where legacies are born in battle and names are carved into stone, you've never wanted to be known - just strong enough to survive. Born outside of a great clan, you blend into the backdrop of Konoha: skilled, quiet, unnoticed. But when a certain loud, reckless blond boy starts crossing paths with you, silence is no longer your shield.

Naruto Uzumaki is everything you aren't: loud where you're quiet, wild where you're cautious, and determined to make the world acknowledge him. You never expected him to remember your name - let alone look at you like he sees you.

From the scarred earth of the Chūnin Exams to the growing shadows of war, your bond with Naruto unfolds slowly - not in grand declarations, but in glances, quiet conversations, and the simple act of standing beside him, even when no one else does.

This is not a story of destiny.
This is a story of choice.
A love that grows not in the spotlight, but beneath the same sky.
