A/N ; fem!reader ,, i luv itachi sm,, :< i made an itachi nsfw oneshot if anyone wants to read it here
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ itachi ; was only supposed to hide. one night. a quiet village. your house. but then he saw you, awkward and startled, clutching a kitchen knife with both hands. you had no idea who he was.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ itachi ; was calm when Kisame muttered "we should kill her". itachi didn’t even blink. just turned those sharingan eyes on you and said, "No. It'll be messy." he meant it tactically. but something in him already knew, he couldn’t.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ itachi ; came back weeks later. alone this time. stood outside your door until you opened it. no threats. no words. just him. and you...confused, but somehow... waiting.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ itachi ; didn’t ask to stay. he just… did. and you didn’t ask why. you made him tea. he washed the dishes. you put fresh sheets on the bed. he slept on the floor at first.
Now?
He sleeps with a hand resting over your hip.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; never actually asked you to be his partner. just sort of… 'was'. one night, as he tucked you in, he whispered,
"You're safe with me."
The softness in his voice said everything.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; listens to your stories like they’re ancient scrolls. you ramble about village gossip while hanging herbs in the window, and he nods silently, eyes half lidded, memorising every word like scripture.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; isn’t used to softness. But he accepts it in doses, your fingers brushing his bangs out of his face, the way you hum while cooking.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; looks like sin wrapped in silk, hair loose, sleeves rolled, black eyes half lidded as he reads by candlelight. he’s beautiful in a way that aches. He doesn’t know how to be loved. but he lets you try.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; sometimes disappears for days. You pretend not to worry. He always comes back. Bloody, tired, quiet. But he always comes back.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; when he thinks you’re asleep, he leans close. brushes his lips over your knuckles. whispers soft, broken things you were never meant to hear.
"If I'd met you sooner..."
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; never clarified it. but he started folding your laundry into his drawer. started brewing tea for two without asking.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; knew how to observe. knew how you like your eggs soft, how your plants needed re-potting, how your eyes got heavy before you admitted you were tired. he loved you in quiet rituals, not grand gestures.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; doesn’t do 'dates'. he does late night candlelit dinners on the floor. slow dances in the kitchen while rice steams. listening to you read aloud while his head rests in your lap. your life is the date.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; won’t say 'i love you' often. instead, you get-
"Wear your scarf, it's cold"
"I killed someone who looked at you too long." (he's joking... right? the next day rumors flooded around the village that someone is missing.)
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; writes notes. tiny, paper-thin slips folded and hidden in your coat pockets, under your pillow, tucked in the pages of your favourite book.
"You looked lovely today."
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; won’t say he’s possessive. but no one visits. no one stays too long. your neighbours stop mentioning 'that man in your house.' they’ve learned. he’s polite, but there’s a cold gleam in his eye that promises silence if they try.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; helps in the garden without ever being asked. you’ll glance up and find him pulling weeds, re-tying the tomato plants, sleeves rolled and hair tied back like he belongs there. like he’s always belonged there.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; kisses you like it’s a prayer. slow. soft. focused. the kind of kiss that makes the world go quiet. like he’s saying thank you without words.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; back hugs. all the time. arms snaking around your waist when you’re making tea, or pulling weeds, or just staring out the window. chin on your shoulder. voice low.
"You work too hard"
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; buries his face in your neck when he’s tired. doesn’t say anything. just breathes you in like you’re something holy. lets his fingers slip under your shirt at the bottom, only to rest them there.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; tugs you close when you sit too far. doesn’t say a word. just hooks a finger around your sleeve and gives you that look like, 'why aren’t you here?'
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; loves when you lie on top of him. your cheek on his chest, your hand curled in his shirt. he'll read like that, or braid your hair like that, or just… lie still. with you-
"Only you."
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; starts the day with a kiss to your shoulder. ends it with one to your fingers.
₍ᐢ.⸝⸝. ྀིᐢ₎ boyfriend!itachi ; hugs like it’s the last time every time. slow arms, tight hold, head tilted to your neck like he’s afraid someone’s gonna pull him away. he’s still learning that he gets to keep you.
✨️You’re friends and someone asks you out in front of them✨️
Only fluff, SFW 💜
Characters: Kakashi, Sasuke, Shikamaru, Gaara, Naruto, Kiba, Rock Lee
Of course you're just friends! But what if someone else steps in? Naruto boys' jealousy when someone tries to steel your attention 😤
Kakashi
- if before he had some issues figuring out his feelings for you — NOW HE KNOWS
- jealousy hits him right in the gut
- he’s overwhelmed with a flood of feelings
- yes, he knew you’re beautiful, hot, smart, and cool
- so how could he not predict that someone besides him might develop an interest in you?
- and all of that in just a couple of seconds while he stands there with a poker face, watching you blush while this dude is waiting for your response
- also, he’s pretending he doesn’t see the guy throwing glances at him, suggesting he should back off
- no way he’s leaving you with him now
----------------------------------------------
Sasuke
- it’s kinda funny how his face changes when he hears that
- from his usual annoyed glare, through something between shock and fear, to a mix of cold anger and smugness
- because what is this little shit doing talking to you?
- also — is he blind? Doesn’t he see who’s there with you?
- mf UCHIHA
- you’re completely unaware of what’s going on in his mind because he, of course, never hints to you about his feelings
- so you’re understandably in shock when he doesn’t even let you answer and tells the guy to fuck off and never interrupt you two again
- even if before you were just standing there in silence, waiting for the rest of your training group
- the guy leaves quickly
- you ask him why he scared your potential date
- he hisses and tells you to focus on training, not dating
-----------------------------------------------
Shikamaru
- he sighs and backs off a little to give you some privacy
- you thought he’d say something? Nah
- you can go on your stupid date if you want to
- see if he cares
- he can’t stop thinking about it for the rest of the day
- and night too — no sleep for him because of your date, apparently
- he runs through different scenarios in his head, including you getting married to another man
- when you see him the next day, he looks rough and is annoyed as heck
----------------------------------------------
Naruto
- not only does he not back away, but he joins the conversation
- the guy trying to ask you out is hella confused
- he tries to give hints that he wants to spend time with you romantically, but Naruto doesn’t seem to catch on and is already planning to meet up with both of you
- walk in the forest? Cool, you could practice ninja skills together
- ramen? Oh my god, he’s in
- watching movies at this guy’s house? Fantastic, he’ll bring snacks
- he’s not dumb — just panicking because he wanted to ask you first!!
----------------------------------------------
Kiba
- for some reason, he starts acting like he’s your father
- asks the poor guy where he’ll take you, at what hour you’ll be home, what’s his family name and where he lives
- doesn’t seem to care you’re both adults
- he’s eyeing him with suspicion
- orders Akamaru to check the guy’s scent in case he might need to find him later
- that’s the last straw — the guy is spooked and runs away
- you’re confused and angry, but Kiba seems to be proud of himself
---------------------------------------------
Rock Lee
- you can hear his heart breaking
- he almost runs away
- but halfway there, he remembers you are the one for him and he should fight for you
- he understands it’s only his fault he still hasn’t confessed to you and you have every right to date whoever you want
- but now he’ll be training every day to be a better man for you in the future
----------------------------------------------
Gaara
- he didn’t know you could do that
- just come up to someone and ask them out
- he’s staring at you in shock and making mental notes
- and about this guy? Oh well
- he might as well disappear the next day, who knows
