I'm curious, since I see your like NaruSai, do you have an headcanons for them?

anon i just want you to know that i am soooo happy you asked for some narusai content! thank youuu!

so from my perspective, naruto is just not someone i can ship with anyone outside of his teammates. like ultimately Sasuke IS the one he’s meant to be with--and y’all know i’m not a fan of soul mate shit but the entire narrative of this series is that they’re soul mates. like naruto constantly chooses sasuke over others, and sasuke is constantly running from naruto because he knows the depth of his feelings... but like despite all this they do have an unhealthy relationship and i think that there’d be a lot of--not even just on again off again but like just so much of that denial and fighting and shit. like for them to get to a place that’s healthy they need to really work at it and i tend to imagine that the only way naruto would date someone else is that between period before he and sasuke have their shit together, or in an awful au where sasuke is like dead or else just never really comes back, where they don’t get their shit together 

anyway, i’m saying a lot of words but my point is that naruto could date and truly love sai or sakura, but sasuke is still his soul mate so it’s always kind of a little sad, kind of a whole lot bittersweet when it comes to naruto and sai (or sakura, though i think sakura it’s a little less bittersweet because they are best friends, they’ve known each other so long, they have a beautiful friendship, but still...) 

so i’m not sure if you were hoping for canon or like modern au but i tend to lean more towards modern au with narusai cause i think that it’s a lot more plausible in that context 

anyway naruto initially cannot stand sai like they end up dormmates in college, and naruto is just Not Feeling It. sasuke hasn’t been in naruto’s life for a good five years or so because Sasuke’s family moved out of Konoha after this whole big drama with Itachi being disowned and Sasuke was REALLY messed up by the whole thing and no one knows what the deal is but it was Not Good. so sasuke basically cuts contact with everyone but ESPECIALLY naruto which is like devastating but naruto can’t really do much about it except try to find sasuke--he constantly checks different social media sites and shit but he’s never had any luck. but what he does remember is sasuke wanting to go to this one specific university (naruto fully does not get accepted to that university). he applies to a bunch of colleges in the area in the hopes that he’ll at least be closer to sasuke

and winds up at the same school as his good friend Rock Lee, so he’s like “oh cool! we should try to room together!” 

and then he shows up on his first day at school and he finds that his roommate is this pasty mother fucker with paint all over his fingers and a shit eating grin on his face and the first thing out of sai’s mouth is “i didn’t realise dumbasses could get into college” which immediately pisses naruto off 

and it doesn’t stop there. sai is always makes comments about how dumb naruto is and about his dick and he’s always got that dumb smile on his face that pisses naruto off endlessly. he doesn’t get sai for the first like two months of living together and he comes very close to murdering sai on a handful of occasions. 

but like sai isn’t actually a shitty person. he’s not trying to be mean he just lived a really sheltered life being homeschooled by his creep of a foster dad who was mean and controlling and never let sai have friends so he’s really just trying to do what he thinks he should do because he watched a bunch of frat boy movies and read some books before college and thinks that he’s just making harmless jokes

he doesn’t exactly stop making fun of naruto but eventually naruto does start to recognize that it’s teasing and not outright malicious. he’s still really confused by sai’s fixation on his junk but he let’s it slide because he’s NOT insecure. once he’s realised that sai’s just really bad at making friends he starts to tease sai back and they settle into a routine 

“i brought you dinner, dick-for-brains,” sai will say, plopping some take out on the counter when naruto’s having one of his late night cram sessions which always always send him into a panic because he hates reading and writing and all of this shit. why did he want to go to college anyways? 

and he’ll open the container to find his favourite ramen because sai always knows when he needs that little pick me up

“i was at the store so i just picked you up some new paint, i saw you were out of black,” naruto says, lobbing a bag at sai’s head. he’d been at the convenience store which is NOT that art store but the art store’s only like... a fifteen minute walk from the convenience store and okay maybe the paint isn’t cheap but sai’s always running out of black paint and naruto knows he cut ties with his shitty foster dad so he knows money isn’t exactly something sai has whereas naruto does have a pretty hefty trust fund from his parents plus he’s always been very good at saving money and he worked a lot in high school. so what if he drops $10 a bottle on the fancy paints sai likes best. it’s what friends do. 

eventually, over the course of rooming together, sai also meets naruto’s friends. lee ended up getting put with this really intense red-head from Suna who according to Lee is ‘actually quite sweet once you get to know him’--Naruto isn’t fooled. he knows a crush on rock lee when he sees one--but not being dormmates hasn’t stopped Lee and naruto from hanging out, so Lee is the first person Sai actually meets in Naruto’s friend group. he immediately makes Lee cry when he makes fun of his looks and Naruto does actually punch sai on the arm hard enough to bruise and sort of squawks at Sai, “DON’T MAKE LEE CRY!” 

sai never ever insults lee ever again. he is in fact overly polite to lee after that. when lee brings gaara to meet naruto and sai, gaara glares at sai a lot. naruto thinks that the feelings might, surprisingly be mutual between gaara and lee. 

after lee and gaara, sai meets sakura. naruto secretly hopes that he insults her just because he’d love to see her sucker punch him--for the comedy--but sai has learned his lesson after lee and is much more gracious upon meeting sakura and her gf ino. sakura goes to a nearby medical school while ino is going to another school studying botany. 

eventually it becomes the norm for the six of them to all get together on friday or saturday nights, either in Naruto and sai’s room or Gaara and Lee’s. Sakura and Ino don’t mind commuting a bit since they both go to different schools. 

over the course of his first six months rooming with sai, naruto is still determined to find sasuke. but it hurts. sometimes sai will find naruto with red puffy eyes and in a somber mood, but naruto never explains why. but it clearly is taking a toll on him. sasuke clearly doesn’t want to be found and naruto hasn’t ever been successful. at some point after their break, when he’s gone back home to see his foster brother Iruka, Naruto’s decided he’s gotta stop. it’s time. 

he also missed sai a lot more than he expected. when he gets back to their dorm he throws the door open, shouting, “honey im home!” and maybe he’s still feeling Not Himself, but he’s excited to see sai

sai didn’t go anywhere for the break so he’s there when naruto gets back, same as ever, painting in the grey winter light coming from the open window. i think he has a sort of epiphany then that sai’s actually kinda cute and he’s fun and naruto’s never cried because of him. it’s not like that clear of course, but there’s a feeling and he just sort of comes into the room, the joking nature of his words contrasting sharply with the weight of all the mulling over sasuke he’d done over the break and he just collapses on sai’s bed and watches him paint quietly

sai glances over at him, confused. “did you finally measure your dick and not like the results?” 

the joke doesn’t land so he knows somethings wrong. he stops painting. naruto can’t look at him. he rolls onto his back, looking up at the ceiling. his chest hurts. 

“have you ever been in love?” naruto asks

sai sets down his paintbrush, getting and leaning over naruto so he’s forced to stare at the entirely deadpan expression on his face as he says, “yes, i’ve had so much experience with romance, being a shut in and all.” 

naruto shoves at sai, but he can’t bring himself to laugh. “it’s not all its cracked up to be-ttebayo” 

“then why do they make so many movies about it?” 

naruto sniffles. he really thought he was done crying over sasuke. he chokes out a laugh. sai throws caution to the wind and climbs into his bed next to naruto. naruto doesn’t normally talk about things when he’s crying and if sai has learned anything it’s that this is a Big Moment. 

“i believe that in this situation, as your friend, i should offer to kick said breaker of your heart’s ass?” 

naruto does laugh, turning over and staring up at sai. “if you can find him, sure. but i wouldn’t worry about it.” 

“i won’t. i’m terrible at fighting. i’d probably just throw paint at him.”

naruto feels warmer having sai there to comfort him. he’s not exactly sure when he moves closer just that eventually he’s practically touching sai and he just feels better. calmer. more centered. he falls asleep in the middle of sai talking about his break which consisted of painting and sometimes meeting gaara for lunch. 

when he wakes up, sai’s asleep, curled around naruto who at some point must have scooted closer because there was definite cuddling. naruto decides to keep sleeping.

somehow, after that, though they never actually talk about it, naruto stops sleeping in his own bed. 

he also stops looking for sasuke. 

and at some point, sai’s teasing is accompanied by kisses

- Hey Eddie, these are your birth control pills? - Yeah, and I'm saving it for your sister! ~ Richie has a younger sister (he's like 1 or 2 years older) ~ Her name is Jane (yas stranger things) ~ She has a MAJOR crush on Eddie (i mean, can u blame her?) ~ Eddie treats her really nicely (because Eddie) ~ Richie is lowkey jealous ~ Jane doesn't know about Reddie's relationship It's only a suggestion for when the boys get back from Vancouver

I decided to write this as a one-shot BECAUSE IT DESERVES IT’S OWN STORY! And on my main fic, I follow basic IT BOOK/IT 1990/IT 2017 canons with families and character personalities. Loveeee the suggestion. Sorry, it took so long, I am the slowest of writers because I edit soooo much. Other suggestions are coming I promise, I just need to get myself together! Also, located on archive of our own.

Special Secret

Richie opened a cabinet in Eddie’s house. It had roughly 100 pill bottles and an insult immediately came to mind, “Hey Eddie, these your birth control pills?”

“Yeah, I’m saving them for your sister,” Eddie said annoyed. He walked over and shut the cabinet.

For some reason, this comeback made Richie’s stomach turn. His little sister, Jane, is 1 year younger than him and she has the biggest crush on Eddie. Which would be fine…if Richie was not secretly dating Eddie.

Jane has never directly said she likes Eddie but Richie could tell. It is always ‘Eddie is so sweet’ or ‘Eddie told me my outfit looks beautiful’ or ‘I wonder if Eddie would take me to Homecoming?’ It took every fiber of Richie’s being to not blurt out that Eddie and he were going on a date instead of Homecoming. That he was the one dating Eddie. He could not come out to his sister without making sure Eddie was ok with it.

Now to get up the courage to actually tell Eddie all this. He might be better off keeping it to himself.

“Richie? You ok?” Eddie waved a hand in his face to get his attention. Richie looked at him. His concerned and calculating eyes trying to read his thoughts. Richie felt a surge of affection hit him.

He took a step forward making Eddie step back into the kitchen counter. Richie brought his face forward, close enough for them to kiss. Eddie’s eyes flickered from the kitchen door to Richie’s mouth, clearly conflicted about whether to chance their lips meeting. Their noses bumped and Richie’s lips brushed Eddie’s lightly. Then Richie whispered, “Right as rain Eddie Spaghetti.” His candy breath blowing in his face.

The moment was broken as Eddie pushed him back, “I hate it when you call me that stupid nickname.” He picked up his fanny pack from a table and clicked it on, “Let’s fucking go to your place already.”

Richie did not want that, “Why don’t we just hang out here?”

Eddie looked at him warily, “We can’t if Mom walked in on us making out. That would be the end.”

“Yeah, because she would be so angry I was cheating on her,” Richie smirked.

Eddie made a horrified face, “You’re disgusting. You said your parents weren’t around today, right?”

Yeah, but my sister is around and she’s in love with you. Richie thought bitterly. He loved how Eddie and him being together was a special secret between them. It made the thrill of possibly getting caught exhilarating. It was also a little sad that they could not let anyone know, but being sad was something Richie pushed to the furthest part of his mind anyway. However, his sister being around with her huge crush on Eddie always made him want to blurt out the secret and tell her to get lost.

“Fine, let’s go.” Richie conceded.

When they got to his place, Jane was sitting on the couch watching television. She looked up lazily as he walked in first, then her entire being glowed with happiness at seeing Eddie.

“Eddie! Hi!” Jane ran over to him, pushing past Richie, to give Eddie a bone-crushing hug. It made Richie’s blood boil.

When she released him, Eddie smiled at her sweetly. “Is that a new headband? It looks great with your curls!”

“Do you really like it?” She ran a hand through her brown locks and batted her eyelashes.

“Obviously he does. That’s why he commented on it.” Richie grumbled.

She shot him a classic Jane piercing glare then turned back to Eddie. “Do you want to watch movies with me? I was just about to put in Ghostbusters.”

Richie frowned at her, “You don’t even like Ghostbusters.”

“I could like it!” She growled. Richie swore Jane was trying to throw him with her mind.

“We can watch something you like, Jane,” Eddie suggested quickly to avoid a fight. Richie watched as his sister’s face melted at Eddie’s thoughtfulness.

“Let’s watch The Breakfast Club!” She said excitedly.

“Sounds great,” Eddie agreed. “Good with you, Richie?”

“Just peachy.” Richie sighed.

Richie and Eddie sat on the couch next to each other while Jane went to the kitchen for snacks. They were playing with each other’s fingers gently before Richie dipped his head forward to kiss Eddie fast and sloppily. Eddie’s mouth moved against his in confusion. Then they deepened the kiss with Richie clinging to Eddie desperately.

Richie could smell the popcorn Jane was making and decided now was a good time to tell Eddie about her crush. He pulled away and looked at Eddie guarded, “Eddie,” Richie began.

“What’s up?” Eddie said running his thumb over Richie’s swollen lips, smiling to himself dreamily.

“I have to tell you something about Jane.” His throat felt dry and he was suddenly nervous.

Eddie brought his hand away to focus properly, “Ok…”

“I’m pretty sure that she um…that she…” Richie could not believe he was having so much difficulty telling Eddie. He told Eddie everything. What made this different? If Eddie knew about his sister liking him, would he break up with Richie? After all, dating a girl would be a lot easier for him. His mom would love it as opposed to his stupid ass.

“Richie just tell me what’s—“

“Got the popcorn!” Jane sang. The two of them scooted a little away from each other and tried to look casual on the couch.

“And Eggo waffles I see.” Eddie laughed.

“It’s all she eats.” Richie rolled his eyes.

“He’s not wrong, move over Richie.” Jane made her way to sit in between them.

“Why? Just sit in the empty spot next to me.” Richie said frustratedly.

“I want to sit next to Eddie.” She complained.

“Richie it’s fine.” Eddie laughed. Jane wiggled her way in the middle and handed the popcorn to Eddie, offering none to Richie.

Jane started the movie. They were quiet most of the time, Richie sulking in his corner on the couch. 

About half-way through the movie, Jane turned toward Eddie and asked, “Will you go to Homecoming with me?”

“What?” Eddie said in confusion.

“I don’t have a date to homecoming, will you please go with me?” Jane asked this time nervously. Richie’s hands had become fists and he was ready to chew out Jane.

“I can’t, I’m sorry. Richie and I have a date that night.” It left Eddie’s mouth before he could stop himself. “Oh my god…” Eddie’s face started to turn red.

Jane looked at him then whipped her head toward Richie for an explanation.

Richie had nothing to say. He was absolutely speechless. The end of the world must be here because Richie Tozier had lost the ability to speak.

His eyes shot to Eddie’s both of them completely in shock.

Jane decided to break the silence keeping her eyes on Richie. “Rich…are you two dating?” She said it slowly letting it process. Richie looked at her and she did not seem angry or upset, just wanted him to confirm.

Richie slowly nodded his head.

“THAT IS AMAZING!” She shrieked. Their surprise turned to horror at her excitement. She put her arms around both their shoulders and pulled them toward her in a huge hug. Their heads knocked together but they were smiling and laughing.

“How long?!” She asked. “I want every detail! I am so happy for you two!”

“You aren’t…jealous or mad?” Richie asked hesitantly.

“I am absolutely jealous. I have had the biggest crush on Eddie since you two met.” Jane laughed. “But I have wanted you together just as long. I had a feeling Eddie did not play for my team.”

“Am I so obviously gay?” Eddie frowned.

Jane’s eyes shifted toward Eddie mischievously, “You literally stare at Richie’s ass every time you hang out.” Eddie’s face turned even redder than before.

“I KNEW IT!” Richie cheered.

“Anyway…” Eddie said hurriedly. “Thank you for being understanding, Jane. Don’t tell your parents until Richie feels ready. And Richie I am so sorry I outted us.”

“It’s fine, I was literally about to do it.” Richie shrugged.

“Ok, so details. Go!” Jane shouted.

They spent the rest of the day talking and laughing. Richie and Eddie feeling at ease for once about their special secret.
