Summary
"Thirty-two looks good on you, Sasuke,” Naruto says casually, like it’s an appropriate thing to say to a patron, like Sasuke isn’t sternly willing his blood not to crawl up his neck and bleed into his face.
Still, Sasuke doesn’t let it be known that he’s flustered. He smirks. “You’re not too bad yourself, idiot. We should catch up. It’s been a while."
Sasuke hasn’t seen his childhood best friend—and the only person he’s ever truly been in love with—since they were eighteen; fourteen whole years ago. He has a wife and a successful career; he moved on, accepting he’d never see Naruto again. Until he finds himself in Naruto’s restaurant, confronted by his own devastating passivity.

Summary
They didn't talk about the future. There was no point. The future belonged to the living, and Sasuke was fading more each day, becoming more translucent, more fragile, like he was slowly dissolving back into whatever realm the dead inhabited.
But they talked about love—the love they'd shared without knowing it, the love they'd hidden from each other, the love that had survived death but couldn't survive the fundamental laws of existence."I wish we'd been braver," Sasuke said one night, his voice barely audible.
"Me too," Naruto whispered back.
"I wish we'd had more time."
"Yeah. Me too."
Or: Three weeks after Sasuke dies in a car accident, Naruto starts finding things—coffee that tastes exactly right, Post-it notes in familiar handwriting, textbooks that fall open to the right page. When books start flying and Sasuke finally materializes as a ghost in his dorm room, Naruto discovers that death doesn't stop Sasuke from being his academic conscience, his best friend, or the person he's been hopelessly in love with for years.
But ghosts can't stay forever, and some confessions come too late to change anything—except maybe everything.Bookmarked by zelennie

Summary
Every time Naruto pulls out, the ache sharpens, lingering longer, digging deeper. Sasuke never asks for more, but his body does. The first time it slips out, it feels like an accident, fleeting, shameful, easily buried. The second time it happens, he chalks it up to coincidence.
But Naruto notices. He doesn’t press, he waits, silent and patient; watching as the accidents repeat, as the coincidence becomes a pattern. And when it’s clear what Sasuke wants—even if he won’t say it—Naruto gives it to him without hesitation.Or: the two times Sasuke accidentally hinted at his breeding kink—and the one time Naruto gave him exactly what he wanted.
