together, we endure

omg for the longest time, I was like...no, I can't think of anymore. But actually, there is *one* that I hadn't recommended before! I came across it again when looking for a different fic...

Day 20 from "The Wonderful and Heartfelt Times of NaruHina by @journalsofagoddess - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Prompt: You're drunk.

Here are all of the ones I've recommended in the past:

NaruHina Time Travel AU

"A Single Effect" by MidnightRain19 - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. "What are we looking at here?" Naruto questions, barely keeping fear out of his tone. "I…I think that's us." Hinata whispers out in reply. But if that's true then the scroll they used worked forward, not backward taking them far from their original goals, far from what they wanted, and more importantly, how are they going to get home?

“The Time Strangers” by MidnightRain19 - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. “Wait Mama, you forgot to give Papa his goodbye kiss!“ Himawari called out, waving her arms up for Naruto not to leave yet. Hinata froze, face burning as she glanced back to Naruto. "His what?”

“Yesterday Morning” by MidnightRain19 - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. Perhaps Boruto had spiked his coffee and now he was seeing things, but then he saw what looked to be like his 12 year old self along with his old team 7 staring at him widely in shock and realized that no, this isn’t one of those bizarre dreams of his!

“Time Travel Lovers” by EmpressAelin - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. After the Hidden leaf is destroyed, Naruto and Hinata must face the aftermath together.

“Family Bonding” by @itachiboutit - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. What happens when you accidentally travel back 20 years in the past and are stuck with your teenage father, who, spoiler alert, is even lamer than he is in the future? At least that’s the way Boruto sees it.

“The Things That Change” by pupeez4eva - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Wherein Hyuuga Hiashi, doting grandfather of Boruto and Himawari, ends up years in the past, and thoroughly confuses everyone.

“Shine Bright, Shine Far, (Oh Sun of Mine)” by Applepie - Rated G, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. This Konoha is not the one Himawari knows; everything is wrong, and everyone is gone. A strange man who’s not Papa is claiming to be the Hokage.

“Hold Me in Your Memory” by @badluckbrebis - Rated E, Police/Crime AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. When 2008 rookie Detective Uzumaki Naruto discovers that he can communicate with 2019 Crime analyst Hyūga Hinata, they embark together on a manhunt that defies space and time. But, can the two of them really face the Rinnegan Killer, the serial killer that destroyed both their lives?

Hello! We are an event blog, so of course, we will recommend the submissions to NHMonth2025! Day 1's prompt was Blank Period and Day 10's prompt was After the Moon Mission.

"Duel" by snowshoey - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. As Naruto and Hinata's wedding approached, tension began to rise between them. Naruto, always driven by his desire to protect, struggled with the fear that Hinata might get hurt during missions.

"Eu e você, para sempre?" (Me and you, forever?) by hellenamoon - Rated G, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. No dia dos namorados, Naruto faz um pedido mais que especial. (On Valentine's Day, Naruto makes a more than special request.)

"Withered" by @naelorus - Rated E, Blank Period Post-War AU, One-shot - Eu sempre amei os lírios brancos, mas estou cansada de vê-los murchar. (I've always loved white lilies, but I'm tired of seeing them wither.)

"Day 1: Blank Period" from "Naruto Hinata Month 2025 Entries" by Sorakey42 - Rated M, Blank Period Post-War, One-shot. Naruto sat on the side of the bed clad in his white jacket one sleeve laying loose where his arm use to be. He had to get his bandage changed quite frequently especially with the wound still so new.

"Seven" by @asriah - Rated E, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Naruto promises fireworks after a night of a festival. He delivers seven--and very nearly doesn't survive it.

"Blank Period" from "Naruhina Month 2025" by @wandlightchakraawrites - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Naruto asks Hinata about her Tsukuyomi dream.

"Made for Me" by Asriah - Rated E, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Pregnancy, exhaustion, and a house full of love she forgets she's allowed to need--but Naruto never does.

"Seven Minutes" by @opal-chan - Rated E, Blank Period Post-The Last, Two-shot. You’re my seven minutes. Seven minutes? After death, the human brain lives for seven minutes to replay the best memories of your life. They were bound together. They died, and their brains hung on for them to replay the best memories of their lives. Their best memories were with each other. It would be like that for eternity. Fate paired Naruto and Hinata together, before they even made it to the world.

"impatient" by @linisen - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Naruto was restless, pacing back and forth by the Konoha gate. He kicked the dirt a little, and sighed. Waiting. He was terrible at waiting.

"Day 01: Blank Period" from "NaruHina Month By Juudaii" by Juudaii - Rated T, Blank Period Post-War, One-shot. The problem was Hinata. Well, not her exactly. The problem was Naruto's behavior when Hinata was around. And the worst part was that he couldn't understand it.

"Day 10: The Silence After the Moon" from "NaruHina Month By Juudaii" by Juudaii - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Three days had passed since their return. Three days in which Konoha had welcomed them as heroes.

Humorous NaruHina

I think @peppercornpress writes some of the funniest NH fics!:

“Doppleganger” - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Team 8 meets Naruto’s doppleganger (but not really).

“Tsukuyomi Boyfriend” - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Over a year has passed since the great Shinobi War, and people are finally starting to open up about their Infinite Tsukuyomi Illusions.

“In Between Drinks” - Rated M to be safe, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Lord Seventh invites his buddies out to drink since Sasuke is back in the village.

I also think @mmmbuttery wrote really funny NaruHina:

“A Prior Engagement” - Rated G, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Hinata’s on a blind date - and guess who crashes?

“Special Delivery” - Rated T, Modern AU, One-shot. The new girl in the mailroom receives something unexpected. Written for the Men in Uniform Challenge.

Here are some others that I thought were funny!

“Day 19: Clothes Swap” from “Walking Beside You” by @spyder-m - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. In which Naruto, for whatever reason, won’t stop adjusting his underwear, and Sasuke barely resists the urge to kill him.

Chapter 18 from “Postscripts” by @waterrolls - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, Short one-shot. (1) I have a Drabble request for youuuu. Maybe a jealous naruto (classic I know!) but like during shippuden days where he doesn’t even know why he’s jealous? Maybe some person flirting with her on a mission? I dunno up to you! ️

“Permission to Engage” by waterrolls - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Naruto proposing--as only he can do.

“The Wooing of Hinata Hyuuga” by N-AngelFire - Rated G, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. In which Naruto finally sees Hinata and decides to take action. “SASUKE! TEACH ME TO BE COOL AND SMOOTH AND ROMANTIC!”

Naruto and Hinata are sent on a mission to find a mysterious flower. But they will get a big surprise when they find out that the “Rose Lips” flower has a special power. A power to turn young ladies into ultra-hot, super-busty, sexy bimbos, and Hinata will be its victim!

“Snapshot” by tappity_tap - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Being roped into taking the picture for your best friends' engagement announcement isn't such a bad thing, especially when (surprising) hilarity ensues.

“Matchmaking” by Happy_Ocelot - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Everyone knew that Naruto and Hinata were a very happy couple. Everyone except the Hyuuga clan, who had clearly missed the memo. Thus began their clueless, well-meaning, but extremely irritating attempts to set up the former Hyuuga heiress and the hero of the Fourth Ninja War. Even though they were already together.

“Saturday Night at the Movies” by breakfastinbed - Rated G, Modern AU, One-shot.  When all their friends cancel on them, two strangers end up enjoying a movie together.

“Are You Still Mine?” from “Wicked Tales” by @voodooscreamqueen - Rated E, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. In the entirety of their relationship, Naruto has never doubted Hinata’s devotion. But when he starts to wonder and hear things, just how sure is he?

“A Fate Worse than Death” by Caelestia - Rated M for smut, A/B/O Canon-Divergent, One-shot.  Naruto, improperly socialized and traumatized as a child, rejects his inner Alpha, which has devastating consequences on his family and marriage.  “A Risky Bet” is its fluffier follow-up (and has Hinata attending a function with Hokage Naruto, who gets jealous).

“Pretty Pretty Prankster” by @alabasterink-blog - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Hinata was beautiful and, unfortunately, the rest of the world agreed.

Here’s my previous list of Jealous Naruto fanfic recommendations!

And two more that aren’t on that list.  They aren’t married in the following two:

“Day 19: Clothes Swap” from “A Love Story Like Never Before” by @journalsofagoddess​ - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. When their rubbish can starts filling up with fancy flowers that he decidedly did not give to Hinata himself, and Hinata gives little explanation to sate his growing curiosity, Naruto decides to find out what’s going on by himself.

OOOOOOOOHhhhh, nice 😏 yahh I love this

An in-the-process-of-realizing-his-feelings Naruto!

Jealous!Naruto Fics

“Spring Break” by @char-lotteral - Rated M, College AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Naruto’s so in love with Hinata, his feelings paralyze him from even talking to her.  Will a week together be the kick they need to finally face each other honestly?

“Something New” by @waterrolls​ - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Can a clueless boy ever figure out romance? Maybe, and definitely not without the help of friends who have the couple’s best interests at heart. Or, how Naruto and Hinata got their changes in uniforms.

Chapter 18 from “Postscripts” by waterrolls - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, Short one-shot. (1) I have a Drabble request for youuuu. Maybe a jealous naruto (classic I know!) but like during shippuden days where he doesn't even know why he's jealous? Maybe some person flirting with her on a mission? I dunno up to you! ️

Chapter 42 from “Postscripts” by waterrolls - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Short one-shot. Hello! I have a drabble request for you, could you please do one of an older (19 year old) Naruto going to the past and flirting with 16 year old hinata in front of his young self, to make him jealous and reminisce of how beautiful and kind hinata always was?

Chapter 45 from “Postscripts” by waterrolls - Rated T, Modern AU, Short one-shot. Hi there! I hope this ask finds you well. So i would like to give an idea for a drabble. Here is the thing Naruto is an ice hockey player and Hinata is his gf(or soon to be gf if you know what i mean). I leave the rest up to youu! Take care:)

Chapter 48 from “Postscripts” by waterrolls - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Short one-shot. But I would like to see how you're going to write a situation wherein Sasuke's showing interest in Hinata in his subtle ways and Naruto's in denial (or oblivious) he's in love with Hinata but couldn't quite control his jealousy or perhaps, tensed over the matter

“White Kunai” by @magmawrites - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. A series of violent rapes and murders targeting long, dark haired, young women have caught the attention of the Hokage. Her plan? Use a qualified, long, dark haired kunoichi as bait. The only one that fits the criteria? Hinata.

“Ultraspectral” by Orifiel - Rated M for nudity and implied sex, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. When Hinata agrees to pose nude as Sai's nightly art model, she is unprepared for the aggressive reaction of her platonic friend Naruto, who quickly becomes a nuisance as he makes several riotous attempts to sabotage the project.

“Idol Gossip” by @vegebulsoup - Rated M, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Hinata promised herself she would finally admit her feelings to Naruto on their senior class trip to Tokyo, but her plans change when she’s mistaken for a famous pop idol. (This has Menma in it, but this is a NaruHina fic).

“Day 12: Flirting” from “Proud Failures to Proud Parents - NaruHina Month 2016” by xHinaLovex - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. It was perhaps ironic, certainly unexpected, what the rookies saw unfolding between two of their own.  After years of Naruto being entirely oblivious to Hinata’s affections, now it seemed it was her turn to be oblivious to his own.

“Oblivious” by PervyNinja - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. After the war, Naruto is not the only one to be approached by admirers - Hinata is oblivious, Kiba, Shino & Akamaru are protective and Naruto is just so confused.

“A Push in the Right Direction” by Shawny Wong - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Kiba and Shino are ticked off. Hinata’s many suitors have become a real nuisance. No matter how often she turns them down, they keep coming back! If only she had a steady boyfriend…

“Hogwarts AU” from “Tales of Two Ninjas” by @magmawrites​ - Rated T, Magic AU, One-shot. Going to a school of magic only means the growing witches and wizards face the same trouble as growing muggles plus more. They will learn a lot more than magic at this school. They’ll learn to love.

“Jealousy” by Cheating Death - Rated M, High School AU, One-shot.  Naruto realizes he’s really into Hinata, but who’s that senpai hanging around her?

“Why would innocent little Hinata be out dressed like that?” (One-shot) and its follow-up “On Any Given Day” (Long One-Shot) by @utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent. Hinata tries to move on from Naruto, right when he realizes he wants to keep her.

Untitled by utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Prompt: True love is one soul residing in two bodies.

Chapter 32 from “Between the Trees” by utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent AU, One-shot. NaruHina Prompt: (because it was hot as heck here today) how about NaruHina and bathing suits.<3

I was wondering if you have any recommendations for a love triangle between Naruto, Hinata and Sasuke. Or ones where Sasuke and Hinata are friends too.

Thank you so much for your blog!

I'm glad you made use of my lists!! Here are a few NaruHina fics with Sasuke on the side that I haven't recommended before:

"Pining Heart" by mythicalheartbeat - Rated G, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. She was the one girl who never seemed to fall over him, the one who didn't seem to care. The one he couldn't forget.

"the best man" by anonymous - Rated T, Modern AU, Multi-Chapter, Complete. naruto is the best man for his best friend's wedding. that wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for the fact that he's in love with the bride to be.

"The Love We Keep to Have" by Rasengone - Rated E, Modern AU, Multi-Chapter, Incomplete. He want to go see his best friend for usual hangout because it's been a while. He didn't expect to meet the wife who needs some comfort. The woman who he fell in love with since the first time they met until now and he never stops loving her.

In these next ones, Sasuke is good friends with Hinata.

"20th Year" by TINA18 - Rated E, Royalty AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. The life of royalty for three best friends in neighboring kingdoms was something none of them would change about their lives. They had been together since birth and loved their close-knit friendship, but things changed the year of their 20th birthdays – the year they became eligible to get married.

"Girls Need Swords to Play" by @happyocelot - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Naruto decides that Sasuke needs to make more friends, find more precious people...by devouring a million bowls of ramen with them. All of them...even Lee. Sasuke wants to be left alone. And Hinata gets a dangerous new hobby.

"Master Servant AU" from "Tales of Two Ninjas" by @magmawrites - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Some relationships are forbidden but there are no rules when it comes to love.

Here's my list from the last time someone requested something like this...

NaruHina with Poor Pining Sasuke AU

“Chapter 39” from “Between the Trees” by @utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent AU, One-shot. Prompt: Would you write sasuke being jealous with naruhina or naruto being wary of sasuke/sasuhina?

“Chapter 32” from “Between the Trees” by utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent AU, One-shot. NaruHina Prompt: (because it was hot as heck here today) how about NaruHina and bathing suits.<3

“Echoes of Silence” by @ellaroundpanda - Modern AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Hinata Hyuga was trapped. Her relationship with Toneri was leading to nowhere and she wanted to find a new Dom. Naruto Uzumaki seemed to be the answer to all her prayers, but her fiancé wouldn’t give up that easily…

The following three are more like….idk, crazy possessiveness.

“The Way of the Geisha” by chancewriter - Rated M, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. When Hinata was kidnapped by Kumo, Hiashi could not save her and everyone thinks she died. She ends up in a very different life from the ninja she was supposed to be, but her ninja life is never far behind her.

“Road to Redemption” by averagejane497 - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. Naruto’s made a lot of mistakes in his life, especially concerning the women he loves. Maybe this time he can get it right.

“I want you to cry” by Devahhole - Rated E for graphic murder, dub-con/non-con, and smut, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. A sociopath blinded by revenge runs into his greatest opponent.

The next two are….hmmm…not exactly a crush…more like lusting…..well, you’ll see.

“Secrets of the Hidden Leaf” by @sessakag - Rated E for a ton of different kinks, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. Naruto and Hinata push the boundaries of propriety and decency in a budding relationship of profound love and wild, sexual exploration. This will be NaruHinaSasu eventually.

“The Legend of Yukari” by Gekiai - Rated E (also hints at SasuHina & ItaHina pairings, so definitely not for everyone), Modern AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. Three men plague the life of Hinata Hyuga, also known as Yukari. It all sounds like a love story any girl would want except Hinata is an adult video star with no plans of retiring anytime soon.

Hello! We are an event blog, so of course, we will recommend the submissions to NHMonth2025! Day 1's prompt was Blank Period and Day 10's prompt was After the Moon Mission.

"Duel" by snowshoey - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. As Naruto and Hinata's wedding approached, tension began to rise between them. Naruto, always driven by his desire to protect, struggled with the fear that Hinata might get hurt during missions.

"Eu e você, para sempre?" (Me and you, forever?) by hellenamoon - Rated G, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. No dia dos namorados, Naruto faz um pedido mais que especial. (On Valentine's Day, Naruto makes a more than special request.)

"Withered" by @naelorus - Rated E, Blank Period Post-War AU, One-shot - Eu sempre amei os lírios brancos, mas estou cansada de vê-los murchar. (I've always loved white lilies, but I'm tired of seeing them wither.)

"Day 1: Blank Period" from "Naruto Hinata Month 2025 Entries" by Sorakey42 - Rated M, Blank Period Post-War, One-shot. Naruto sat on the side of the bed clad in his white jacket one sleeve laying loose where his arm use to be. He had to get his bandage changed quite frequently especially with the wound still so new.

"Seven" by @asriah - Rated E, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Naruto promises fireworks after a night of a festival. He delivers seven--and very nearly doesn't survive it.

"Seven Minutes" by @opal-chan - Rated E, Blank Period Post-The Last, Two-shot. You’re my seven minutes. Seven minutes? After death, the human brain lives for seven minutes to replay the best memories of your life. They were bound together. They died, and their brains hung on for them to replay the best memories of their lives. Their best memories were with each other. It would be like that for eternity. Fate paired Naruto and Hinata together, before they even made it to the world.

"impatient" by @linisen - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Naruto was restless, pacing back and forth by the Konoha gate. He kicked the dirt a little, and sighed. Waiting. He was terrible at waiting.

"Day 01: Blank Period" from "NaruHina Month By Juudaii" by Juudaii - Rated T, Blank Period Post-War, One-shot. The problem was Hinata. Well, not her exactly. The problem was Naruto's behavior when Hinata was around. And the worst part was that he couldn't understand it.

"Day 10: The Silence After the Moon" from "NaruHina Month By Juudaii" by Juudaii - Rated T, Blank Period Post-The Last, One-shot. Three days had passed since their return. Three days in which Konoha had welcomed them as heroes.

omg caricloudi there is unfortunately the exact fic for you, I don't know why I didn't answer this sooner:

"April - Too late/Missed opportunities" from "Still Falling for You" by @chloelapomme - Rated T, Modern AU, One-shot. If they had said to each other what they felt for each other three years ago, everything would've been completely different today.

Also!

"Lovelorn" by @char-lotteral - Rated E, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. After 3 long years of travelling the world, Naruto comes back to Konoha only to find out that Hinata Hyuga has been engaged to another.

and then in these, Hinata gives the "good friend" card to Naruto, so not an outright confession & rejection, but Naruto feels rejected all the same.

“The Ramen Booth” by chloelapomme - Rated E, College AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Years have passed since her unanswered confession in intermediate school, since his humiliating hazing incident in high school, since blossoming popularity drew their attentions away from each other. Yet time has only sharpened friendship into painful longing, even as their time runs out with the approach of the university fundraiser. Can 7 Minutes in Heaven at a crazy flat party be enough time to clear the air between old best friends?

Other Hinata "Moving On" Fics

“The Loving Type” by @peppercornpresses - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. A few years have passed since the Fourth Shinobi War, in which…Neji Survives. Naruto and Sasuke are crowned heroes. Rookie Nine steadily advances in rank. And Naruto and Hinata aren’t even remotely together…YET!

“My Favorite Night” by peppercornpress - Rated M, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. Hinata harbors deeper feelings for Naruto after three years of being his roommate. Facing hostile relations from her old clan, another odd phenomenon with the moon, and Naruto still hopelessly pining after Sakura; Hinata makes the painful choice to end their sham of a relationship and try her luck in another hidden village. Unbeknownst to her, this move kickstarts a series of events that forces her and Naruto to confront their past, present, and future.

“In Another Life” by theGeneralissimo - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. In which Naruto listens to his mother’s advice and marries a girl like her. And lives to regret it.

“Common Side Effects” by katarinahime & “Medicated” by szajnie - Rated E for a lot of things, Crime/Modern AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. Naruto and Hinata, in a struggling relationship, must confront the pain inside before they can love each other.

“Why would innocent little Hinata be out dressed like that?” (One-shot) and its follow-up “On Any Given Day” (Long One-Shot) by @utsus - Rated T, Canon-Divergent. Hinata tries to move on from Naruto, right when he realizes he wants to keep her.

“A Cliche Not So Cliche Story” by @journalsofagoddess - Rated T, Modern AU, One-shot. Everyone has heard about the typical love story where the boy gets the girl and they live happily ever after. But what people tend to forget is that life isn’t always like that. Naruto and Hinata came to realize how cruel the world can be but also something akin to forgiving too. A love story that’s typical yet not so typical at all.

“Because I Love You” aka “Arranged Marriage AU Take 2″ (Same fic) by @magmawrites - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. A canon divergent fic in which The Last never happened and Hinata Hyuga was promised to another.

He decides to give her a chance, but his feelings for Sakura has never faded. Hinata is slowly losing hope as time goes on…and she soon chooses to leave him.

“Road to Redemption” by averagejane497 - Rated M for implied rape, implied smut, and character death, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. Naruto’s made a lot of mistakes in his life, especially concerning the women he loves. Maybe this time he can get it right.

and I almost forgot the one I wrote:

"White Lilies" - Rated E, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. A Hanahaki AU - She knit a red scarf for him. She never gave it to him. Days turned into months, months turned into too late. Naruto starts dating. Hinata decides to move on. A sickness takes root in the heart.

Not troublesome at all! Thanks for reaching out! Let’s see, for starting off, eh? 

The Path We Walk and Sparks, both by tenneyshoes. Both are set in the same universe, though the first one is more a story (a memory loss one, to boot) while the other is more of a collection of one-shots, though they’re still quite closely connected. I think they both capture the essence of the pairing quite well, and The Path We Walk is especially fun for re-reading multiple times.

Between the Trees by utsus. Quite an excellent collection of one-shots, quite diverse too. Chapter 9 especially great, and is one of my favourite one-shots ever. Then, check out utsus’ other works as well, they’re all quite good.

Team 8 by S’TarKan is a classic. Unfortunately, it is incomplete, and hasn’t been updated in quite some time, but it’s quite famous in the fandom. Basically, Kurenai has more of a backstory, and Naruto and Kiba are swapped when the team placements were made (this author also wrote a rather famous Harry potter Fic, Nightmares of Future Past, which was recently removed from fanfiction.net for some weird reason, but it’s one of my favourite works).

Secret Lovers and its continuation, Star Vessel, by @quirrrky are really great, and Secret Lovers in particular is one that it great to read multiple times. They’re both canon compliant and set during the Blank Period, before and after The Last.

One Small Step and A Delicate Condition by Shawny Wong. They are both very sweet, a couple of my favourites, but unfortunately, both are incomplete and haven’t been updated in over 10 years. However, from what is already there, I think they’re still worth a read (especially a Delicate Condition, which works as it is at the moment)

It Was Winter by eliphya. A wonderful bakery AU which just warms the heart, and eliphya has a bunch of other great Naruhina fics as well, which I do recommend you check out at some point. 

Obviously there’s no such thing as “entry level” fics, but I think those are pretty good for getting into it all. Then, there are: 

Anything by @dayseternal-blog​ (AO3) (that’s not the name of a fic, by the way). Honestly, one of the best authors out there, and they just finished a great angst fic, White Lilies, which diverges from canon at The Last. My personal favourite is It’s No Secret, a high school AU.

Anything by @waterrolls (AO3) (again, not a fic, though it might make for a great story actually). All of their work is excellent, my personal favourite being Salvage. It’s sort of a rewrite of the Blank Period, and does it so well as well. 

To match our strides by Stonehill. It’s canon compliant and set before The Last. Another excellent fic with some wonderfully sweet moments

put on your warpaint by borzbois is very well written with an intriguing plot and much excitement. It’s a Tattoo Artist AU. 

Serenity Prayer by katarinahime. A modern AU where Hinata and Naruto meet again after... quite a time apart. It’s a wonderful fic that might be a bit emotionally... heavy, but it’s a great read that I strongly recommend. This author has a few other really great stories too. 

A Hyuuga’s Honor by Elphaba818 is a Mulan AU that is a personal favourite of mine because of how well it adapts the world of Naruto into the story of Mulan (the animated one that is, the actually good one). That is to say, as closely as it follows the movie’s story, it doesn’t just write out Mulan but swap out Mulan and Shang’s names with Hinata and Naruto’s. 

I’ll leave it there for now. These are ones that come to mind at the moment, but there are so many more options to look at, and as you get tangled deeper and deeper in the jungle that is the Naruhina fanfiction world, you’ll just naturally discover more fics as you go along. Also, you can keep the Hyuuga HInata/Uzumaki Naruto AO3 update list up, and check it sometimes to see if you bump into anything that seems interesting, though you may have to apply a liberal amount of filters if you wish to avoid certain pairings or tags. 

And, if the need ever arises, I have a mildly extensive google doc serving as an archive of the fics that I read and thought might be worth keeping a record of.

I hope you made use of my tagging system in the last 5 months since you sent this 😅. Check out #naruhina high school au on my blog for all the posts I've ever made with that tag.

Here are some of my faves:

“you totally almost killed me that one time (it’s okay I still love you)” by @itachiboutit - Rated G, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Complete.  Naruto, a promising baseball player, returns to Konoha Prep, and, without so much as even a “long time no see,” hits a ball into Hinata’s face.

“It’s High Tide, Baby” by @spyder-m - Rated T, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. “Despite everything that happened around it, the water would continue to flow. It was majestic and free, so unlike the nature of his own existence.” Could their love withstand the test of distance and time, or was it doomed to slowly fade away?

“Accidentally in Love” by lagseeing1123 - Rated M, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete.  Naruto was supposed to help Kiba get a date with Hinata, but in the process finds himself falling for his best friend’s crush.

“cheerful” by @vegebulsoup - Rated M, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Complete.  Naruto and Hinata join the cheerleading team!  Love drama ensues.

“October - Horror” from “Still Falling for You” by @chloelapomme - Rated T, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. Hinata has an unhealthy obsession.  Naruto does, too.

“Uninhibited” by EroPrincess - Rated M, High School AU, One-shot. People have said confidence is gained through inebriation.

“Asynchronous With You” by @bunny-hoodlum - Rated E, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Hinata is done pining for her foster brother, Naruto. And yet, maybe that’s the best time for him to pick up right where she left off.

“Jealousy” by Cheating Death - Rated M, High School AU, One-shot.  Naruto realizes he’s really into Hinata, but who’s that senpai hanging around her?

“Chapter 25″ of “Between the Trees” by @utsus - Rated G, One-shot. Naruto is getting used to his new prosthetic arm.

“Promise” by @linisen - Rated T, One-shot.  Writing on your own skin will appear on your soulmate’s skin.

and I've written several high school aus. here are a few of my most popular:

“Friend of Mine” - Rated T, High School AU, One-shot. When Naruto finally decides to confess to Sakura, Hinata begins to reevaluate her close friendship with her longtime crush.

“It’s No Secret” - Rated M, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Hinata returns to Konoha to enjoy her last year of high school, but her secret grows too heavy to bear. 

“Tell Me of Forevers” - Rated T, High School AU, Two-shot. Delinquent Naruto is trying to change himself for the better.

“Awkward Jocks” - Rated G, High School/1990s AU, 3-Shot. She knows that if he were to ever ask her out, she would accept in a heartbeat. After all, he’s the star quarterback and basketball player. Plus, she’s liked him since…forever. But when her home phone rings, and he’s on the other line, she hangs up.

NaruHina Post-The Last Blank Period

"More Than One Life" by history_huh - Rated E, Canon-Compliant, Multi-chapter, Complete. How Naruto and Hinata made it from The Last to the wedding and a little bit after that.

"Hime" by @thestrangeryoucanget - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, Two-shot.  It is set on Hanabi's kidnap on the beginning of The Last, after Hinata goes with Toneri, and after the end of the movie.

"do you adore?" by tendermoon - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. twenty kisses they share.

"star vessel" by @quirrrky - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. From a jealous boyfriend to missions together, honeymoon, overprotective husband, nightmares and reveries. Everything from the moon and back.

"In Your Care" by Speckofoursource - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. Hinata might have fallen for him first, but Naruto fell for her the hardest. Seven chapters detailing my take on the NaruHina wedding story, starting with a low key and intimate engagement. Generally canon-compliant and will contain some spoilers for the final season of Shippuden.

"under the moon's light" by @powerful-niya - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Naruto and Hinata enjoy a romantic evening at the Rinne Festival, but they soon find themselves taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane.

The one I wrote recently - "With You" - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Hinata and Naruto support each other in the aftermath of the Moon mission.

The following are ones I've recommended in the past:

“With You in the Future” by @chloelapomme - Rated E, Canon-Compliant, Series of related one-shots. Back at Konoha from their moon mission, Naruto and Hinata learn to know each other, how to live with each other, how to solves problems together, and how to start a family. With their past behind them, their future is right before them.

“NaruHina 2020” by @angelicalixx - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, Series of one-shots. A collection of short NaruHina fics for NaruHina 2020.

“My Name on Your Lips” by katarinahime - Rated E, Canon-Compliant, Series of related one-shots. Hinata calls Naruto a plethora of different names, some he enjoys more than others.

“Permission to Engage” by WaterRolls - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Naruto proposing–as only he can do.

Untitled from "Postscripts" by WaterRolls - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, Short One-shot. Prompt: Here, Naruto seeing Hinata with a high ponytail for the first time (they have gotten together in this time) and he was left in awe at the sight of her bare neck and all of sudden he felt the urge to kiss it. And before he realised, he already did and it caught them both off guard.

“Chapter 18″ from “Between the Trees” by @utsus​ - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, Short One-shot. Prompt: Jealous Kiss.

“Day 2: Cravings” from “NaruHina Week 2017″ by @hinatamyqueen - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. She never knew she could hunger for another’s touch this way.

“The Urge to Touch Her” by @cherryjutsu - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. The urge to touch her was a dangerous thing.

“Hair/Haircut” from “Orange and Lavender” by Reading Bennie - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, Short One-shot. She was fed up. Hinata loved her husband and her children dearly. But this was the last straw.

“Close Quarters” by @spyder-m - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Much to the chagrin of their teammates, since becoming couple, Naruto and Hinata are acting much more open and affectionately around one another… Even while in the middle of missions.

Untitled by @nekomamoru - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Prompt: “I know I’ve kissed you like, ten times, but just like another ten, please.”

“like liquid starlight” by wordbends - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, Short One-shot. Too many nights away from home.

“The kids, they ambushed me!” by @linisen - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. During the blank period - kids around the ages of one and three.

“Matchmaking” by @happyocelot - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Everyone knew that Naruto and Hinata were a very happy couple. Everyone except the Hyuuga clan, who had clearly missed the memo. Thus began their clueless, well-meaning, but extremely irritating attempts to set up the former Hyuuga heiress and the hero of the Fourth Ninja War. Even though they were already together.

I also wrote "Shared Vows" - Rated E, Canon-Compliant, Series of one-shots. A series of one-shots concerning the highs, lows, and in-betweens of their romance, not in any chronological order.
