Another great one is 'Young Love: Sakura and Sasuke'. This story focuses on their shared experiences as young ninja trainees. It shows how their different personalities - Sakura's exuberance and Sasuke's brooding - create an interesting dynamic between them. There are cute moments of Sakura blushing around Sasuke and Sasuke's rare, small smiles in response to her.
You can start by searching on popular fanfiction websites like FanFiction.net or Archive of Our Own (AO3). Just type in 'young Sakura and Sasuke' in the search bar, and a list of relevant fanfictions will come up.
A common theme is protection. Sakura might feel the need to protect the younger Sasuke from threats, whether it's from external enemies or his own inner demons. There could also be a theme of self - discovery for Sasuke with Sakura as a guiding figure. He's at an age where he's still figuring out his place in the ninja world, and Sakura, with her more mature perspective, can help him in that journey. And of course, the theme of teamwork, as they combine their unique abilities to face challenges.
Since 'hard lemon' fanfiction is inappropriate, we can talk about their general characteristics in normal fanfiction. Sasuke is often depicted as a brooding and powerful character, while Sakura is shown as strong - willed and loving. In non - inappropriate fanfiction, their relationship might be shown as evolving from initial acquaintance to deep love, with Sasuke's cold exterior gradually melting due to Sakura's unwavering affection.
Sakura can develop by becoming more patient. Dealing with the young Sasuke, who may be headstrong, will require her to be more patient than she was in her youth. For Sasuke, he can develop his social skills. With Sakura as an example, he can learn better ways to interact with others in the village. He can also develop his combat skills under Sakura's guidance, learning new techniques.
Sasuke could initially be a vampire who is full of anger and resentment, maybe because of how he was turned. But Sakura's positive attitude and kindness could start to soften him. He might start to open up about his past and his feelings. Sakura could develop from a somewhat naive vampire into a more worldly and wise one. She would learn about the darker side of the vampire world through Sasuke, and this would change her. Maybe she would become more cynical at first, but then find a balance between her old self and the new knowledge she has gained.
In proper fanfics rather than 'lemon' ones (as 'lemon' implies inappropriate content), Naruto is known for his never - give - up attitude. He's the heart of the story, always trying to bring Sasuke back and protect his friends. Sasuke is a complex character, with his family's past haunting him, which makes him seek power and revenge at times. Sakura, she starts as a girl with a crush but evolves into a capable ninja. These characteristics are often the foundation for fanfic authors to create interesting stories that don't involve improper content.
In these fanfics, one characteristic is the growth of their relationship. At first, Sasuke may be aloof, but gradually he opens up to Sakura. Sakura, on the other hand, is always steadfast in her love. Another is the mutual support. They often face difficulties together, be it in battles or in rebuilding their world, and they rely on each other's strength. Also, there's the element of deep understanding. They come to understand each other's past traumas and insecurities, which brings them closer.
For Sakura, she could grow in terms of her leadership skills. If they encounter any difficulties in the forest like being chased by a group of wild animals or getting caught in a dangerous situation, she could step up and lead the way out. Sasuke might then realize that Sakura has the potential to be a great leader. And for Sasuke himself, he could become more open to the idea of a relationship with Sakura. The seclusion of the forest could provide the perfect backdrop for him to explore his feelings for her.
She might be initially heartbroken. Sakura, being in love with Sasuke, would surely be deeply affected when he neglects her. She could become withdrawn herself, losing some of her usual cheerfulness.
