Introduction:
Kindly read it to understand it better.
Summary:
Where childhood lovers Uchiha Sarada and Uzumaki Boruto's cherished love became the reason for their ultimate downfall
"But it was just an innocent childhood love- right?"
Hey Borusara fam! I am back!
Well read this introduction to understand this fic better
1. First - this fic was planned in late 2022. It was to be kind of Multi- chapter fanfiction
2. But the thing was- I started with writing different scenes- like stand alone one shots- that were part of the same storyline
3. Later, I realised that I don't have time to fill gaps and write extra scenes to make it a traditional multi chapter fic
4. Now , in 2025 I have decided to complete my one shots and indeed publish them
5. So instead of continuous chapters- you will get a set of stand alone one shots that are kind of connected and are based in the same story line.
6. Warning - Dark 18+ themes. Gore. Blood and sex( it was kind of my ambitious project. Didn't turn out as I wanted it to- but I still love it because I love all my work! Everyone should be!) In sexual themed chapters the characters are above 18 years of age.
7 This story is based on one of ORIGINAL HEADCANON: ROGUE BORUSARA
I POSTED IT ON : BORUSARA ARCHIVES
Chapter 2: Chapter 1: Burning for you
Summary:
Can't you see it in my eyes
How much I burn for you?"
Notes:
Warning: Gore , mention of blood and violence 18+

Song: House of Balloons by Weekend
"Can't you see it in my eyes
How much I burn for you?"
My eyes twitched-
My throat went sour.
Again.
Still,I took long strides towards my designated place: a long electric red couch- crowded with familiar faces I had known for most of my life. The Kaminari Burger was as bustling as ever. But that was not the reason my body felt hot. If it was, I would not have decided to coerce to fit myself on that single couch with a bunch of my friends. With dangling tray and painful grips, my electric eyes fell on the two people at a distance sitting among our group- chatting away. They were seated too close for my liking. The boy's finger caught a stray strand of those pretty raven hair as he dared to tuck it behind her hair. Suddenly, a familiar sweet laugh reverberated in my ears amidst all the wavering noises of the crowd-
And it twitched again;
That itch on my chest.
And it wasn't because of that laugh- no; that was the sweetest and loveliest of laughs I had ever heard.
It was entirely something else-
Or that someone.
" Hey Inojin! Sqiush in, Make some space for Boruto and Shikadai" Iwabe hollered at the gang. Amidst those witty jokes and strained laughters she might have heard my name- for she didn't even take a second to throw a soft glance at me. She was always looking at me;
For me.
And with that a set of hot pink eyes settled on me too. Of the known boy that sat beside her.
" Hey Boruto! Man! Long time, No .."
I bashed my tray onto the table- in front of him. The soda almost spilled.
Silence.
Shikadai preferred to sit on the empty table beside us- munching on his spicy crispy tacos. Whilst I made my place in between the hot pink eyed boy and the ravenette. He looked surprised- while the girl muttered something under her breath as she tried to make sufficient space for me to sit.
" How are you Kagura?" I threw a wide smile at my friend beside. For some weird reason, it pained.
Karatachi Kaugura of Kirigakure was not a stranger to me- or us. He was a loyal friend-an ally, for sure. But still, there ought to be some paths better not to be treaded. Boundaries not to be crossed.
That day I understood my own limits.
A swift movement and I felt my arms snake around the waist of the ravenette as I pushed her onto one of my lap. It was a discreet yet voluntary move- that didn't get unnoticed by the sharp jaded eyes of my best friend. As for the girl, she just complied quietly without any thought. It was a bit crowded. It was necessary for all to fit in, she would have thought. Or maybe she just didn't care. For she continued to talk to Chocho and Kagura simultaneously. I chimed in too because Sarada always said that it was good to give your unwanted opinion where it was not needed at all.
And that's how time passed.. with her and our friends chatting away and laughing.
Finally someone was behaving
Or so I thought
" So everyone.. I shall take my leave" The pink eyed guest announced. " Thank you for such a great time"
The sun had almost set.The gang was outside the Thunder Burgers. People retreated back to their abodes. Birds flew away in groups. Clouds caught sparks and turned orange.
A perfect time for farewell.
It was all cool..
Until he extended a hand for a feisty handshake.
Towards her
Only her..
And she took it.
That twitch in eyes..
That sour throat..
That itch in my chest
Fucking again.
I wish I could break those fingers..
Oh how I wish I could.
****
Why should I be blamed..
For the flames surrounding me?
It's not like I chose to do so. Did I? It was just like this.. since like forever. Since I remember. That itch. In the chest.
But who would tell them- and him?
My father.
Who was in his office
With me-
Standing in front of him.
I still remember that day like it was yesterday .The time seemed to stop there. In that room. The photos of my grandfather and the other hokages looked at me with those judging eyes of theirs.
"Boruto" My father- the 7 th Hokage of Konoha spoke up.
I said nothing.
" Why did you do it?"
I scoff.
" It's serious Boruto.. you bursted the hand of the culprit with Rasengan and almost choked him..."
" Because he attacked Sara..."
"Boruto!"
I don't know what else do you want me to say!???!!" My pitch amplified. Silence.
In truth, I didn't know what I needed to say. Neither I cared what he wanted me to say.
The reality was that it had hit again.
That itch in his chest..
But it wasn't the problem.
The problem arose when it had started burning.
It was all normal. It started so..predictable. Us fighting the bandit group. Shurikens and Justus. Like we should. It was a chore for us- nothing much.
Until my eyes fell on her.
And him..
The bandit. Whose hands grabbed her arms. But that wasn't it
It was the eyes. Those lusty eyes of his.
My eyes twitched.
Throat went all sour
And that itch in the chest-
Turned into a burning spark.
All went red..
Red.
All that I remembered was sound of screaming and hollering reverberating in my ears. Not mine. Voices. Something crushing. Shouting. His eyes in my bloody palm
Yes that's all I remembered.
I really didn't know what to tell Tou-san. I really didn't .
" Borut.."
Suddenly, the door behind me slammed open.
" Lord Seventh.. sorry for interrupting"
My eyes followed that sweet voice. Her eyes met mine for a second. Dad and Shikamuru found their attention waiver from me.
" Sarada"
" Lord Seventh.. may you listen to me.. it's all kind of my fault not Boruto's please..." She rubbed those marks protectively. Purple now. My eyes twitched. Again. My palm turned into a fist.
And that's when she looked at me. Her beautiful black orbs meeting my electric blue one. With vulnerability... and more so
a grateful understanding.
She understood why i did what he had to do
I felt kind of relieved.
She understood me. It was all i wanted-
That was all i needed
" Thank you, Boruto" she had said to me after a heartfelt lecture on heaven knows what.
" Keep it for the next time, Sarada"
"Huh, Next time?"
That next time came too soon. When for the very first time I lost my consciousness to Momoshiki in our battle with Boro.
*****
Can't you see it ,my love?
How much this fire of your love
consumes me?
The old broken floorboard beneath my feet creaked. With my head ducked down, I entered the safe room. My safe room. I let out a whistle as I take out a picture folded from the pocket of my cloak. I unfolded it.
My God
Amidst the crowd was she there- walking with a grocery bag in hand. Unaware. Unsuspecting. So fucking pretty. Her hair were shorter. Her eyes were sharper.Her long neck accentuated with a lovely choker.. those collarbones peeking through
And that fucking jacket.
I smirked. What was the use of pretending huh? I knew. I knew that jacket. I could bet on the world that the jacket was from the Kashegori Store- that cute building at the end of the market - which sold cool apparel. Like the pink jacket he once wore. Like the red jacket she was wearing nowadays.
I smiled. That's why I was alive
Because of her
Only her.
My chest burned. My cheeks flushed.
This lady.. god help me.
I shamelessly removed my bloody gloves-as I made my way to my pants. Unzipped-
" Boruto"
A nerve popped in my head.
" What?" I zipped my pants up
I almost growled at the familiar masked intruder in my abode. He came out of the shadow. And stood beside me...
And lit a cigarettes. Cheap.
A drag. Smoke.
The man passed the smoke. I obliged reluctantly.
"It's no good"
I took a drag- long. The nicotine rich smoke hit the wall of my oesophagus.
He walked towards the wall.. in front of him. That was not unsurprisingly anything but void. His sharp hawk eye looked through every photo , every marked line and words scribbled with cheap red marker. Of course he knew what it was. Or that every pic on the wall that were collected meticulously over time.. belonged to one and only individual
The girl he called menace. The one with jet black hair and dangerous eyes.
Yes he called my girl- menance.
Silence.
" A body has been found on the borders of Village of Sand. Of a trafficker. Who trafficks organs. They said..."
I let the smoke out.
" Boruto- get the fuck out.."
Hmm
" Don't pretend you don't have anything..."
" I denied nothing, Koji" I stood facing him. Tall. "His target was Sarada..
" Possible tar.."
" I don't give a fuck. His eyes was on Sarada. Her Sharigan. He shouldn't have eyed her if he didn't want his face mauled .." I let out the smoke on his face. The bloodied gloves and shoes stood in the line of his sight.
But I didn't care. Why should I? It was something that could not be hidden anymore. I couldn't hide it no more.
The flames were on high rise. Those flames of obsessed love that engulfed my soul, mind and body. They were no secrets.. those flames high as walls of the castle. It reflected in his eyes, and burns in his heart every second.
If somebody couldn't see it- comprehend it.. he was nothing but a fool.
" That Uchiha would ruin you..."
" Let her. I am hers to ruin. I am already ruined.. Koji"
Ass. Couldn't he see I was already ruined?
" And you have no business whatsoever to come in between us.. Koji" I stared in his non existent soul. I put the cigarette between his lips
Don't dare you come- or
You will be ruined too.
**********
Oh heavens, say you see the testament of my love
for my darling!
As I burn the world for her- and everything in between
Hadn't I warned him?
I saw the blood dripping off my master's sword
Not to come in between?
My Jougan burned.
And then I let out a laugh. A sarcastic one. A crazy one.
I looked at the clone in front of me.
Didn't I tell you to stay away, Koji?"
I sit down on the ground. To the level of his body. The ground was hot- but it wasn't a surprise. For the world was nothing but a burning inferno around us. I looked deep in his eyes- the one's peeking through his broken mask.
And for the first time in my years with him- I saw something I was never meant to see.
Horror.
"Come on! Koji Don't pretend you didn't know"
The man in front of him gurgled something. Blood trickled from corner of his mouth
" What ! want to say something ?" I grabbed his jaw. Squishing it open. But then I saw a pool of blood overflowing
Oh
I patted my bloody cloak. Ah! I take out something from its pocket. Something wet. And slippery. I looked at it.
A fucking tongue.
His tongue.
I looked at the clone in front of me. " In my defence, you shouldn't have said anything about her" I looked casually in his shivering eyes. " Come on! You have seen everything-past, present, possible futures. Don't tell you have never known - that I am nothing but crazy about her! " My voice turned defensive. " A bit crazy-just a little" I guestured with my fingers.
And in truth, I wasn't lying. I was crazy about her. Even before all this mess. Even before I had everything. Even before everything was snatched from me. Everything except her. And even hell and heaven would agree - that I tried to stop it; to suppress it.
That itch. That spark. That burning. Of my heart. Of my soul.
God knew I tried. Even devil knew I tried.
But I failed. Miserably.
I let out a laugh. A small one. A sarcastic one.
Funny how that itch in heart- turned into a spark- that now had burnt this whole world down.
I put my sword on his neck.
Oh this obsession, oh this love of mine
" I thought you would be smarter than that -Koji"
Slash.
More blood marred the tip of my sword.
As I saw his eyes lose its fear -
And life
Altogether.
The world around me continued to be engulfed in a goddamn vortex of fire of my obsessed heart-and I decided to let that lifeless body be consumed by its torrid flames. I threw the mauled tongue out- in flames.
I would later blame all on it.
" Don't even think of it crazy brat, I am not in any way responsible for this" A very familiar distinct cold voice showed its distaste..
" Don't act like you didn't know too-Momoshiki"
" I have known- but its too late"
Me too Momoshiki; me too
Now you see-
Now you see my burning love.
