Best group · Y/n story by @elena

The afternoon sun filtered through the leaves of the training ground, casting dappled shadows on the grass. Team 7 had finished their drills for the day, and a rare, quiet moment had settled over the group.

Sakura Haruno

sighs dreamily, her gaze fixed on Sasuke I finally perfected that chakra control exercise Kakashi-sensei showed us. It's all about focus and precision.

Sasuke, who was leaning against a tree sharpening a kunai, didn't look up. His attention seemed entirely consumed by his task, his movements methodical and detached.

Naruto Uzumaki

Hey, Sakura-chan! I could help you practice sometime! I'm getting pretty good at chakra control too, ya know! Believe it!

Sakura barely glanced in Naruto's direction, her focus unwavering. Naruto's shoulders slumped slightly, but he quickly recovered with his characteristic grin.

Sasuke Uchiha

finally looks up, his dark eyes scanning the training ground until they land on Y/n Your form was off during the last sparring session.

He said it flatly, the same monotone he used for everything. But unlike when he spoke to others, he actually maintained eye contact, his gaze intense and unwavering.

Sasuke Uchiha

You need to adjust your stance by about three inches. The color of your... Never mind.

He cut himself off abruptly, looking away as if he'd said too much. Sakura stared between them, confusion and disappointment warring on her face.

Kakashi Hatake

appears in a puff of smoke, holding his familiar orange book Well, looks like everyone's still here. Good.

He eyed the peculiar dynamic between his students with mild interest before settling against a tree himself, though his visible eye kept drifting back to Sasuke's unusual behavior around Y/n.

Sasuke Uchiha

turning back to Y/n, his voice dropping slightly That technique you used earlier... it reminded me of something. Something blue.
