A common plot is the slow - burn romance. Itachi is often portrayed as a complex and reserved character. In an arranged marriage with Sakura, he may be hesitant to open up. However, Sakura's persistent and warm nature gradually breaks down his walls. Their relationship could develop from a forced union to a loving and respectful marriage.
Another plot might involve the reactions of the other characters. Sasuke could be very against the idea at first, thinking Itachi doesn't deserve any form of happiness. But as he sees the positive changes in Itachi because of Naruto, he might start to accept it. Also, the village elders might have their own motives for arranging the marriage, like trying to create a stronger bond between the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans.
One interesting plot could be the initial shock and resistance from both Itachi and Naruto. Naruto, being his boisterous self, might outright reject the idea at first. Itachi, on the other hand, would be conflicted due to his own secrets and loyalties. As they start to interact more, they could gradually discover new sides of each other. For example, Naruto might see the kind heart beneath Itachi's cold exterior, and Itachi could come to admire Naruto's unwavering determination.
One interesting plot could be that at first, both Sakura and Shikamaru are very resistant to the arranged marriage. Sakura is still hung up on Sasuke, and Shikamaru thinks it's a hassle. But as they start spending time together, they gradually discover each other's hidden depths. For example, Shikamaru realizes that Sakura is not just a love - stricken girl but has a strong will and great medical skills. Sakura, on the other hand, sees that Shikamaru's laziness is just a facade and he's actually very intelligent and caring. Another plot could be that they are forced into a mission together as part of their 'arranged marriage training' and in the process, they have to rely on each other to survive, which brings them closer.
Well, another plot could be that Sasuke is initially cold towards the idea of the arranged marriage. However, Sakura's unwavering support for him during a difficult mission changes his perspective. He realizes that she is someone he can rely on. This leads to a slow - burn romance where they learn to open up to each other within the framework of their arranged marriage.
In some fanfictions, the arranged marriage is a political move. Sakura then uses this situation to her advantage. She works hard to improve relations between their families or clans.

This could involve her training hard and becoming a respected ninja in her own right, which in turn earns Sasuke's respect and eventually his love.
