SasuSaku Fanfiction | Eternity | Blank Period • Rejected Proposal • Slow Burn

Story Notes

Welcome to Eternity!

An angsty, post-war SasuSaku fanfiction featuring a rejected proposal, heavy emotional angst, and a slow burn pining where Sasuke must learn what it truly means to love before it’s too late.

Summary

"Marry me." "I can't." "Why?" "Because you don't love me like the way I do." To Sasuke, proposing to Sakura was the only logical next step. The Uchiha compound was rebuilt, the war was over, and she was the only one who truly understood his darkness. He didn't know how to explain the quiet depth of his devotion—he only knew she belonged in his future. To Sakura, accepting a proposal born of clan obligation and silent duty is a cruelty she can no longer endure. Believing he will never truly love her, she chooses her own dignity and walks away. But when a deadly mission alongside Naruto leaves both Shinobi on the absolute brink of death, the emotional walls Sasuke built begin to shatter. An angsty, post-war SasuSaku fanfiction featuring a rejected proposal, heavy emotional angst, and a slow burn pining where Sasuke must learn what it truly means to love before it's too late.

Prologue

Naruto © Masashi Kishimoto

Do you believe in eternity?

I don’t.

Nothing in this world lasts forever.

Eventually, everything changes—especially human feelings.

People change as time passes.

I change, you change, and everyone else changes too.

Including her feelings for me.

Haruno Sakura’s feelings toward me changed after everything that happened.

“Marry me.”

Sasuke’s words made Sakura’s emerald eyes widen in shock. With his usual expressionless face, the black-eyed youth stared directly into her eyes. For a fraction of a second, he caught sight of her hands, tightly clasped together, trembling softly.

“The answer is no, Sasuke.”

“Why?” The word was short, blunt. Demanding logic where logic had failed him.

“Because you don’t love me.”

And those final words from the girl left Uchiha Sasuke completely speechless.

What, exactly, was love anyway?
