Author: Timothy Wren
Fandom: Naruto
Relationship: Haruno Sakura/Uzumaki Naruto/Uchiha Sasuke (ot3 Team 7)
Genre: Anime, Time Travel, Romance
Warnings:  Underage. They’re teenagers in this. I’m going to be very frank in saying that there are references to Sakura’s initial time travel, where they did some over-the-clothes frottage during Wave era. I headcanon them as a little older than they were in canon in this AU series, but it’s still teenagers fucking teenagers. References to "that one time" aside, they’re all around 16-17 at the time of this fic.

Summary: Sakura came back in time years ago and during those years– between saving the world and various missions– her teammates have been going just a little bit nuts.

“Two trips in one year? I must really be special, huh?” He teases, and she’s surprised to find he hasn’t changed at all from her last visit.

“I’ve figured out how to do it on purpose,” She admits, fully expecting the distraction to cost him. It doesn’t. He jerks his head to look at her, but even that is planned in the split second it takes him; a fist goes sailing over his head by the scantest of margins.

He doesn’t look concerned at all.

His confidence is thrilling.

If you’re reading this, you’re either buckling in for the ride at the beginning of this journey, or looking back on it through the lens of time and– hopefully– admiring how far the site has come since its inception. While I fiddle with background images and headers, I am keeping in mind the main portions of the site, and the reasons for which it was created: first, as a place to showcase my personal writing, and then the forum which will become a home for the…
