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.

Summary
"You're annoying."
Those two words were supposed to be his shield-a harsh truth to push her away before his Uchiha bloodline brought her down with him. But he never expected her to actually listen.
Two years after the war, Sasuke returns to the Leaf. He comes back carrying the weight of a missing arm, a shadowed past, and a quiet, heavy guilt. He expects anger. He expects tears. He even expects the familiar warmth of Sakura's welcome.
Instead, he finds a wall.
The girl who used to chase him is gone. She no longer calls him Sasuke-kun. She no longer smiles when he enters the room. She treats him with the quiet, polite distance of someone who has moved on.
Can two people who are deeply hurt find their way back to each other? Or will the things they leave unsaid keep them apart forever?
📌 A slow-burn, heavy angst-with-comfort SasuSaku story set in the Blank Period. Canon-divergent exploration of trauma, PTSD, and emotional accountability.
