The thing I keep coming back to is that this ENTIRE manga, the core theme has been Naruto and Sasuke's relationship and more recently, Naruto's growing obsession with bringing Sasuke back. Sakura has all but become part of the wallpaper.

Yes, this! Also, shippuden!Naruto hasn't expressed all that much interest in anyone butSasuke, even post-confessions Y/Y?

That's why, if it ever actually happened, it would so totally make sense.

I especially love that Sasuke has never seemed to express any romantic interest in anyone either let's ignore his obsession with Itachi. Part of me wants to see a resolution to the whole Sakura/Sasuke and Karin/Sasuke issue to finally know what his deal is there, especially if he once entertained the idea of resurrecting his clan. XD
