⚠️ Heavy Angst ⚠️ CW: major character death, gore, blood, delusions
Her body sinks to the ground, flower petals dancing around her like snowflakes in the midst of winter.
She feels cold, weak; all of her chakra points are destroyed beyond repair. Her sacrifice is an unfortunate waste—but one that will assure the peace in the shinobi world.
It will keep her daughter alive.
Keep Sasuke safe, for once.
Sakura lets her eyelids fall shut. Her organs shut down one by one, heart beating slower with each passing second, until it ceases to beat at all.
The house is silent when Sasuke steps over the threshold, and completely dark as well. Sarada, he knows, is with the rest of her team sleeping over at Naruto’s home. The genin were exhausted after days of intense training as they prepared for the Chunin Exams.
He is rather tired himself, he finds, after attending meeting after meeting with Naruto, the council, remote contact with each leader of the other hidden villages. A deep sigh falls from his lips as he toes off his sandals slowly, treading quietly down the hall toward he and Sakura’s room. It is late enough that she might already be asleep–her schedule, too, has been hectic with preparations. Gathering the resources and detailing procedures for an international event in which injury was very much a given was a tall order for even the best of medical ninja (which his wife surely was).
Sasuke has to stifle a yawn as he finally steps in front of the entrance to his and his wife’s bedroom. His hand barely brushes the doorknob when a startling, familiar sound filters to his ears and causes him to freeze.
Heart pounding, he holds his breath and listens closely. Within a few seconds, the sound comes again, if a bit louder. A keening, breathy moan that is as familiar to him as his own heartbeat and sends a shiver down his spine even as his muscles tense further.
“You’re so beautiful,” his voice coos huskily, mere breaths from her ear. “ My Sakura .”
She moans, stretching her limbs like a cat, legs splaying wide as his fingers brush, featherlight, over her folds.
“Touch me, Sasuke-kun,” she begs in a whisper, rolling her hips against the air, leveling him with a needy stare. She spreads her legs wider, presenting all of herself to entice him into action, into granting her relief from the throbbing ache inside.
“Here?” he murmurs, that small grin she loves so much curving his mouth as he presses his palm fully over her dripping core.
She gasps, eyes rolling back as he rubs at her with his full hand, spreading her wetness all over. The tips of his fingers slip teasingly between her sensitive folds, one dipping slightly into her entrance now and then.
Her release is so close, maddeningly close but just out of her reach. She whines through Sasuke’s ministrations, canting her hips and begging him to give her what she needs, to push deep inside of her to touch that part of her that needs it most.
“Shhh,” he whispers, leaning forward until she feels surrounded by him, his heat, the scent of sage and ash and smoke. “I’ll take care of you, my love.”
And finally, finally, he sinks two fingers deep inside, curling, reaching and thrusting as he chants–
“Sakura.”
Her eyes fly open to find obsidian and hints of lavender staring down at her. The thin padding of her mission pack digs into the flesh of her cheeks, her blanket tucked high around her chin but tangled and askew around her legs.
His gaze is dark, apologetic when he murmurs, “I’m sorry to wake you, but we have to move on. I can smell a storm coming in soon. We should leave before it hits.”
Sakura nods shakily, sitting up abruptly and offering her sweetest smile. Once he turns to stalk out of the rickety abandoned shelter, she presses both hands to her blazing cheeks and muffles a groan in her knees.
In the middle of a reprieve from Madara, Sasuke tells Sakura and Kakashi not to let down their guard. Then Naruto jumps into the scene.
After Naruto uses his sun ninja magic to give Kakashi a new eye, Sakura is like wtfbbq and Naruto attempts to explain his intuitive magic. Sasuke has no time for magic bullshit explanations tells his team to remember their on a fucking battlefield LIKE HE JUST SAID FIVE SECONDS AGO.
AND HE MAKES SURE TO LET TEAM SEVEN KNOW IT’S ONLY NARUTO HE CARES ABOUT BECAUSE NARUTO’S GOT THE SUN MAGIC HE NEEDS TO WIN THE BATTLE.
Except, like Naruto pointed out - Sasuke said no such thing to Naruto. It was something he told Kakashi and Sakura.
Meta babble under the cut about how much Sasuke loves his team.
Listenn, I’ve been around a loongggg time. and i need to air some grievances with this here fandom…
Fuck all the people who still think Sakura is useless when she has already surpassed Tsunade.
Fuck all the people who still shit on SasuSaku as a ship and say they’re abusive or that Sasuke doesn’t love his wife and child when that’s been stated numerous times that he does.
Fuck all the people who still think Sarada is Karin’s, even though Gaiden was created solely to disprove such bullshit.
But fuck all the people who now fawn over Sarada as a character, but still shit on her parents’ relationship without realizing she would not exist if not for them. y’all are two faced hypocrites. please stay away from our ship, and their child.

rabid sansa stans complaining about the fandom’s backlash to sansa’s arc is peak clownery.
when boatsex happened and jonerys became canon, your own literally came up with the most disgusting and convoluted theory to explain why jon would bend the knee to dany. not to mention the screenshots and drawings y’all made of dany and jon fucking and breathing to somehow justify your foolishness.
when it became clear that jon loved dany, your own made graphs and counted the words exchanged between jon and sansa vs jon and dany to make some weird point about how dany talks too much but sansa is so wonderfully submissive when jon speaks (yeah I fucking remember that colossal bullshit of a meta you all lauded as some nobel-winning literature).
when dany became more than the quiet abused girl you all loved and embraced her fierce warrior queen status, your own made blogs dedicated to hating her and wrote meta after meta about all the ways she’s somehow worse than hitler because you couldn’t stand to see her gain power.
every step of the way, sansa’s worst fans have dragged this fandom down. no one else has made half the anti edits that you have nor dedicated half the energy to hating dany, arya and jonerys. amazingly, you’ve somehow divided sansa’s own fandom where her other fans are constantly forced to defend their love for her because you demons can’t tolerate someone having a different interpretation than you.
dish the shit, take the fucking hit. I’m not here for the sheer hypocrisy of a bunch of fangirls deciding to be all soft and positive when it’s convenient for them, when they’ve singlehandedly poisoned this fandom.
dany and arya’s fans have every right to be angry. get the fuck over yourselves and quit polluting people’s notes. if someone wants your opinion, they’ll ask for it.
