#naruto fluff

the first thing sasuke feels in the morning is the cool breeze coming from the balcony screen. he lets it wash over his bare chest, his eyes closed. he can hear the birds chirping—very clearly, thanks to the apartment balcony basically kissing the forest.

he opens his eyes slowly, staring up at the white ceiling. for a moment, he considers staying exactly where he is, not moving, letting the stillness linger.

it won’t last.

he knows that in 10 minutes, he's going to start feeling restless. he's going to start itching to move his body—to do something productive. that's the outcome of spending most of your life feeling like your only purpose was in your physical abilities. he can't relax anymore. unless he's with you. you've forced taught him that it's okay to not do something 24/7. it's a slow process, but he's grateful you're trying regardless.

quietly, he turns onto his side.

you're still asleep, of course. you have the day off, and it's early. 6:16, the clock reads. his eyes run over your face—the blissed out expression, your parted lips, the slight drool on the corner of your mouth. he reaches out, gently wiping it away. his eyes trail down, to your bare shoulders.

a reminder of the night before, where you'd both been consumed by an intense need for each other. he's still not used to it—feeling that way. he's spent his entire life supressing all his feelings, aside from anger and hatred, and he's been good at it. but his brain stops listening to him when it comes to you.

with a quiet exhale, he sits up, swinging his legs over the side of the bed. the sheet slides off him, leaving his skin exposed to the cold air. he grabs his boxers from the floor, pulling them on, stretching his shoulders once. the large balcony windows are slightly fogged over, and through the screen, he can smell the scent of rain. that's probably why it's chillier than usual this morning.

you wake slowly, blinking the sleep from your eyes. the first thing you register is the empty space beside you—cold where sasuke should be. the second is the temperature. goosebumps rise along your arms as you tug the comforter closer.

you turn your head to see sasuke is sitting on the edge of the bed, back to you. you're about to speak but you pause, taking a moment to really take it all in. his bare back is making you feel dizzy and you're barely even awake yet. his pale skin catching the slight early light spilling in through the blinds. there are thin lines you recognize immediately—old scars, faded but permanent, mapping a history he rarely talks about. his posture is quiet, thoughtful, like he’s been awake for a while already.

he shifts slightly, just enough for you to see the tension in his shoulders ease when he realizes you’re awake.

you sit up, dragging the comforter with you as the cold hits. moving closer, you press yourself against his back, resting your chin on his shoulder. you nuzzle into his jaw, eyes closing again.

“you’re up too early,” you mumble. he exhales, leaning back into you without thinking. “i always wake up at this time.” then, softer, “you don’t.” he tilts his head just enough to look at you. you open your eyes and kiss the corner of his mouth. “m’cold,” you say. “and you weren’t next to me.”

he sighs, turning to face you fully. “you’re not wearing anything,” he murmurs. “get back under the covers.” he stands before you can argue. you hum, bending over the side of the bed to grab one of his shirts from the floor. you pull it on and crawl back under the comforter. sasuke crosses the room and slides the balcony door shut, cutting off the breeze.

he turns back towards the bed, pausing to take in the sight of you. his gaze doesn't linger in a way that's obvious—at least, not to your sleep-addled mind. you only pat the space next to you, wanting to feel his body heat. he quietly walks back to the bed, getting under the covers.

the mattress dips under his weight as he settles back down next to you, not touching you yet. however, when he sees you instinctively inch closer, he rolls onto his side and extends his arm. you're quick to press against his bare chest, head pillowed on his bicep, letting him slide his hand under your shirt.

"i'm not warm." he whispers. you let out a distracted hum, nuzzling his neck. "you're warm enough." you decide. he just snorts, resting his cheek on your hair. "yeah, okay." he mutters. "go back to sleep."

you scoff, pulling your head back to look at him. "why would i, when we could have sex instead?"

taglist: open

For one as brutal as the self proclaimed avenger, he is surprisingly gentle when it comes to you.

Sasuke doesn’t think, and neither do you, that he possesses the capacity to be anything less than worshipful and reverent towards you. It’s practically ingrained within his being that he has to be careful when handling you. You’re not some hardened ninja capable of withstanding the worst of his touches and the roughest of his handlings, you’re his delicate flower of a wife who needs a lot more patience and coddling than everybody else in the village. And it turns, this translates to being excruciatingly careful and tender during sex. Sessions that last hours until cumming feels more like a chore than a reward. Sasuke holding you tight while doing missionary. 

That was, until that day.

“You once told me that one of the purposes of our marriage was to restore your clan,” You say absentmindedly while serving him tea, and his eye widens. “You decided on a date already? Around this time of the month is my fertile window. Speaking of which! Did you know Ino just go—” He isn’t listening in that moment, his gaze solely focused on the cup of tea you just served him, and then your tummy. He can already see you pregnant, beautiful and glowing and utterly his. He doesn’t think of himself as very fatherly, but does he see you as a mother. How many children does he want? As much as he can, as much as you can handle. And even then, he’ll make sure to hire a sitter if that’s what's required for him to have at least five.

So at night, very kindly taking your fertile window comment as a suggestion. Sasuke sprawls you over the bed. Making sure to get you ready for what’s to come. His hand makes sure to keep your legs spread to accommodate his greedy mouth, aching for a taste of you. Tongue that circles and flicks your clit with the position only a man of his caliber has. Your eyes roll back as he rips out of you the third orgasm of the night.

“W-What’s with you?” You say, out of breath. And he stops his ministrations to look up at you.

“I need to get you pregnant.” Your eyes widen, mouth agape.

“What?”

“Are you being purposefully dense? I need to breed you, ___.” He growls, manhandling you in a fit of rage. His eyes flicker with both lust and need, folding you like a fucking pretzel under his weight and strenght. You gasp, tits squeezing together as your legs almost touch your ears. And he doesn’t waste time, no condom, no lube, no nothing. Raw, with only your slick and his pre mixing together inside you. You throw your head back as he starts to thrust, the mating press making him reach deeper and deeper with every passing moment. You gasp for air, but he doesn't allow you a moment of respite, his movements frenzied, a man possessed, nothing like your gentle, loving Sasuke, he was an entirely different beast in that moment. “I’m going to fill you with cum. I’m going to fuck you stupid. Until all you can think is of me and my cock and the child we are raising together,” He snarls. “And I’ll do it today, and tomorrow, and the day after until you’re pregnant. And I’ll do it again after that, every single fucking year. You’ll carry all of them, you’ll be the mother of my children,” His pace falters when he says that, voice cracking so prettily. “And you’ll like it.”

TAG LIST/PROBLEMATIC TAG LIST

‎‎⋆ ˚｡⋆ ꪆৎ ˚

Naruto Uzumaki ✾

Because Naruto is more of a casual and laid back character, I think he'd choose nicknames for you that would match this attribute, calling you things like "babe" on the daily. I feel like he'd have different nicknames for you on different occasions. "Sweety" when he's asking for something or being especially apologetic (he's trying to win you over with this one), when he's upset he doesn't call you any nicknames 😔, but on the occasion where he's trying to be especially fun loving, he'll call you by his last name (Mr, Mrs, etc.).

• "Come onnn, sweety, please..? I'm sorry, okay..?! "

• "I can't believe you'd do something like that, Y/N"

• "What do you say, Uzumaki? Kehe!"

Sakura Haruno ‎ᡣ𐭩 ྀིྀ

Sakura, as we know, is a very romantic individual, as well as very strong willed in both body and mind. Now, although she would do absolutely anything and everything for you, I personally doubt she'd use nicknames that often, mainly because your name is already enough to have her on the moon! Although, on the rare occasion, I can see her calling you names like "dear" in a casual setting or "sweetheart" when she's in a hurry, sappy but cute. I feel like on the occasion where the two of you are in public and she becomes frustrated with you, she might use "honey" with a rough tone (this is the part where you run for your life btw).

• "Dear, could you pass me my headband?"

• "Sweetheart! Are you okay? I heard you were hurt..!"

• "Honey, may I have a word with you..?"

Sasuke Uchiha ‎⚘ ⸝⋆

We all very much expected this so strap in. Sasuke is not one to refer to you with any nicknames whatsoever, in fact, you might have to put him in a headlock for him to do anything of the sort, that or you're very upset that your lover is yet to refer to you by a cute nickname like everyone else's boyfriends, he doesn't cave easily. Although if he had to, I think he'd choose something like "dear", something you can't go wrong with in any scenario. I do think he'd give you little endearing mean nicknames when you're being stupid though, lmao.

• "Y/N, could you move a bit, please? I can't really see..."

• "Dear? I'm heading out, don't worry too much while I'm gone"

• "What are you doing up there, dummy?"

Kakashi Hatake ⟡˖·

Unlike the aforementioned characters, Kakashi is a bit more playful and willing to experiment with names to call you. I can imagine him using nicknames which relate to attributes of your personality, like, for example, if you're a particularly irritable person, he might call you something like "grumpy". Sometimes he finds inspiration in his books and decides to call you something from those, I can imagine him calling you the name of the lead by accident once or twice. Other than that, in a public setting, I think he'd avoid using pet names (in order to avoid being picked on by his own students). He does tend to use "dear" more in front of people who know about your relationship, close friends, etc.

• "What's with the face? Everything okay, grumpy face?"

• "Elizabeth? What are you- Wait, wait, wait!! No, I didn't say that, you're hearing things, I said uhm- ah-..!!"

• "Dear, would you pass me the chopsticks?"

Rock Lee 𓅪˒˒

From my glorious conquests of reading and watching naruto, I can very accurately deduct that Lee can be described as somewhat of a hopeless romantic, experiencing a long winding journey of unrequited love with Sakura, and in this journey, I believe he would have learnt many fun nicknames. He would definitely use floral motifs when referring to you, names such as "my flower of youth" or "my lotus" are very common for him. I also firmly believe he uses "dearest" as well, just to spice things up from time to time. Lee is a very sweet guy who doesn't need much explanation to his name.

• "My flower of youth! It is so great to see you after such a long mission!"

• "You are very beautiful, my lotus..."

• "Dearest! I have brought a token of my love, flowers..!"

Gaara no Sabaku ~❤︎

Gaara is definitely more of a traditional lover, but less out of preference and moreso out of convenience. Due to the fact that he's never really been called any of those cute nicknames lovers give eachother, he doesn't really know what to do when you get all pouty on the subject, going on like "Gaara, you never call me any cute names!" He didn't even know he was supposed to call you cute names. The first time he did try to give you a cute name, it went... less than well. A favourite nickname of his to call you is "darling" simple, safe, cute, easy to get away with, plus it just makes sense, you're his darling so why not call you that? Other than that, he doesn't call you anything else, considering the concept is new to him.

• "A nickname..?" He'd think long and hard on the subject for a moment "What about scorpion? Because you're skilled and dangerous and- Ah, maybe not... That's not very cute, is it..?" Back to the drawing board.

• "Darling? Where are you going? It's so late..." He'd always be awake to hear you sneaking away for a mission at night.

• "Y/N, get back here..." You could hear his stern tone when you froze, already on your way out of the date after an argument between the two of you.

Kankuro no Sabaku ᖭི༏༏ᖫྀ

Kankuro is much more of a casual lover compared to the others, it's unlikely that he'd get too fussed about nicknames to call you. In fact, it didn't take him that long to come up with something when you asked him about it for the first time. "Babe" is definitely a number one for him, he uses the nickname so often that one time when he was out on a mission for over a month, he only registered that as your name, that did not go well for him when he got home 😬. At times he calls you endearing versions of micro aggressions, mostly small stuff like your hairstyle or tired eyes in the morning.

• "Hey, babe, do you know where that carving knife went? I've been looking for it all morning!" He'd call out to you while incessantly rummaging through his drawers, somehow he didn't have a spare after all these years.

• When waking you up for a mission in the morning, he couldn't help but laugh in your face "Morning, man, you look like you just got out of hibernation, maybe I should start calling you grizzly bear or something" Another nickname which wasn't received well.

• After he had called you "babe" all morning, you had started to get suspicious of something, when asked about it he straightened up awkwardly and shuffled over a bit "Uh, forgot your name..? Babe, that'd be crazy, ah.." His face would redden a bit as he tried his very best to breeze past the topic.

Temari no Sabaku ۶ৎ

During the first few years of your relationship, Temari would absolutely revere the thought of using a nickname for you, it was like an insult to her very character that you would even suggest such a thing. But in the years that would follow, she became a little more comfortable with the concept, and would sometimes drop in little "dear"s and "sweetheart"s on the rare occasion. Other than that, I doubt she'd be all that fond of the concept, she's probably the type to cringe when she hears couples calling each other really sappy nicknames, tells you about it when she gets home and takes a long moment to let out her emotions on how gross she found it all.

• "Hey, Y/N, do you mind cooking tonight? I just had the worst day today..." She'd come behind you and hug you at the waist, sighing deeply as she leant her chin on your head.

• Temari would sit down next to you on the stone floor "Dear? What's wrong..?" She'd whisper softly, taking the time to check on you as you curled into yourself.

• "Dear! Come downstairs, will you?!" Is something she'd often call out when the two of you had guests over for dinner.

Jiraiya ᢉ𐭩 ᩚ

Now, I know this is the third casual character but let's get into it. Jiraiya is definitely one to use nicknames like "babe", "baby" or "sweetheart" (you can see where Naruto gets his moves from). These nicknames don't have any specific origin, I feel like he might have been trying to pick you up at the earlier stage of your relationship and the names just stuck, you didn't seem to have a problem with them at all so he just kept on using them! Tsunade finds it rather crass that Jiraiya would call his lover of so many years by the same nicknames he uses on women he passes by in the street, but he just rolls his eyes and says she lacks taste.

• Leaping out of bed in the morning, he'd run to you with such haste you'd think someone died "Morning, babe, sorry, I have to go!!" A very common line for a man who often forgets his missions until the last minute.

• Whenever you'd try to get out of bed in the morning after a long night, he'd grumble and pull you closer, like some kind of needy kid "Come on, baby, just five more minutes, please? I'll throw in something nice if you stay" The wink which followed received a mighty wake up slap for the man.

• In the event where he would take a bet with Tsunade too far, ends up way too drunk and you have to take him home, he would try to pick you up all over again "H-Heyy, sweetheart, how's your night going?" You ended up dragging him all the way back home. Honestly, sometimes you doubt the legitimacy of him being one of the three legendary sannin.

Tsunade ᜊ̆ ̆ ᶻ ᶻ ᶻ

This woman absolutely HATES the idea of calling you cute little nicknames like "sweety pie" or "honeybun", you're not a child, you don't need to be babied like that. In a way, she's like Werner Herzog when asked about if he spoke French, it would take a rasengan to the head for her to even consider calling you something like that. Although, if you were to put a rasengan to her head (or just beg her for hours on end) and she did in fact cave, I think she'd call you "lover", it just makes sense.

• "Y/N, do you mind passing me those documents? On the top left, yes" Whenever you help her out while she works, you can't help but admire her perseverance, she's so beautiful when she works.

• Sitting with Tsunade and getting drunk with her might be one of the most legendary experiences to ever happen to you, this is something you'd gloat to your friends about later. "What's got your attention- *hic* -lover?" That alone would leave you on a high for the next week.

• "Ugh, Y/N..." She'd sigh after a long day at work "Let's go home, I'm sick of this place".

Orochimaru ஐ୧‧₊˚

I know this may seem obvious at this point but I'll just say it anyways, during his little pre boruto fiasco, I think he'd use more dehumanising nicknames like "pet", but after that, that nickname was completely dropped, he wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. Before or after the fiasco, this man is a chronic user of the nickname "dear" he uses it with you constantly, hell, he'll use it with anyone he's close with, I really doubt he cares about the specifics of it all. In boruto (post naruto) setting, I think a favourite of his would be "darling", something similar to dear but more endearing and personal just to prove the point that you are in fact his lover.

• Whenever Orochimaru does work in the lab, you often feel more like an assistant rather than a partner, considering all you really do is pass him notes and concoctions he's used in the past "My dear, would you mind passing me the documents on the resurrection jutsu? They're right beside you" Of course, watching him work was nothing short of a blessing but you felt a bit disconnected.

• It was almost impossible to do anything during the night time when living with him, as he often never slept and if he did, it was always very easy to wake him up, and thus when moving to go to the bathroom at night, a cold hand grasps at you "Y/N? Where are you going..?" His tired voice sounded kinda cute to you.

• In the evening, you'd taken the time to brew tea for the both of you, engaging in polite conversation as the two of you sat outside, at this point he had barely used a single nickname with you, "Ah, about that, darling, I-" before he could finish his sentence you had to take a spit take, which only left him very slightly (meaning extremely) repulsed.

Thankyou so much for reading!! (*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*.ﾟ

Kakashi

- he has two wolves inside of him — one is trying to impress you, the other is shy and gets easily flustered

- so when he sees you, it's hard to predict what will happen

- one moment you're talking to a calm, almost intimidating jōnin, all strength and intelligence —

- and the next, he’s walking into a fence

- when you're around, he's always grateful for his mask, because you can't see how easily he blushes when you accidentally touch him — or sometimes even just speak to him

- at least he thinks you can't see it

- once you asked him what he was reading and looked over his shoulder before he could close his Icha Icha book —

- his ears were red at the sight of you for a month

- another time, you saw him through your window, pacing nervously in front of your apartment — hesitant steps, visibly unsure —

- until he finally walked away, head lowered, kicking at rocks, like he’d changed his mind

---

Sasuke

- he puts a lot of energy into not showing his attraction to you

- he's cold, quiet, doesn’t seem to notice your presence at all —

- but oh, he is so aware

- one time, Naruto tried to prank you by pushing you into the stream

- it was really shallow — worst case, you'd just get your shoes wet —

- but Sasuke was behind you in a heartbeat, caught you when you lost your balance, and gently set you back on dry ground

- then he went right back to pretending you don't exist

- he’s pretty collected most of the time, but if you’re careful enough, you might catch him glaring at you from time to time

- he immediately pretends he was looking at something else, though

---

Shikamaru

- he's quite good at keeping his cool around you —

- but he finds himself thinking about you a lot: in his free time, while watching clouds or playing shogi

- (he’s lost a couple of matches because of you)

- sometimes he gets annoyed when he can't focus on work while you're nearby

- and you caught him staring at your lips once, when you borrowed a cigarette from him

---

Naruto

- something in his brain makes him do the stupidest things when you're around

- he has this overwhelming urge to impress you every time he sees you — but it's like all logic vanishes, and only chaos remains

- after every interaction, he wants to bang his head against the wall — because of what he said or did

- he really wants you to see him as a cool, strong warrior and future leader —

- but mostly, he just mixes up his words, overreacts, and ends up feeling like an idiot

---

Gaara

- he normally spends a lot of time in his head, but when he has a crush — it's full fantasy-mode

- he deals with overwhelming feelings by writing — poetry, letters he'll never send

- in front of you, he's as calm as always — it's hard to read any emotion in his body language

- but he listens closely to your every word while ignoring everyone else

- it's a tough time for the Sunagakure Council, because Gaara is either locked in his office, daydreaming about you —

- or wandering along the village walls, staring into the distance (also daydreaming about you)

---

Kiba

- he has the hardest time focusing when you're around, though he hides it pretty well most days

- sometimes he stares at you way too long, and his friends have to poke him

- you've noticed he's always nearby when someone starts talking to you —

- even if you could swear he was busy with something else just a second ago

- also, somehow he's always walking Akamaru when you're leaving work — so he can walk you home

---

Rock Lee

- he won’t hide his feelings — so it’s pretty obvious he has a crush on you

- I mean, he tells you how beautiful you are every time he sees you

- he calls you his girl and dedicates every fight to you

- when he thinks he’s not good enough, he comes up with new insane challenges to prove himself worthy

- sometimes you're not sure if all that attention is real, or just some kind of joke — because no one is that upfront
