Literature as in books, right? What pairings from books remind you of NaruSaku? I have some, though the list is short (forgive me, I haven't read a lot of books lately lol)
Firestar and Sandstorm from "Warriors": Firestar joins a Clan that's in constant fighting with three others, but he didn't know any fighting skills and was an outcast at first because he wasn't born with them. Sandstorm disliked Firestar because of that, but also because she thought he was too full of himself and always knew best. But after Firestar saved her from falling into a gorge, Sandstorm realized she was wrong about him. They became really close friends after that and they fall in love. Firestar eventually becomes leader of the Clan and they raise a family. Sandstorm was also pretty hot-tempered and got in arguments with him so her interactions with him also mirrored NS lol.
Percy and Annabeth from "Percy Jackson Series": Percy and Annabeth met each other when they were 12 and she had a crush on Luke, who betrayed them and went to enemy. Annabeth started to get feelings for Percy, but she was a bit short-tempered and sometimes snapped at Percy (who usually kinda took in a sarcastic or joking way lol). Percy started to love Annabeth, but there was issues because she still had feelings for Luke and was very upset by how he became while Percy was dense and didn't really know what their relationship was lol. Annabeth realized in the last book of the original series she never really loved Luke and he was just a brother to her, leading Percy and Annabeth to get together in the end.
These two always remind me of NS. The Firestar/Sandstorm one mostly reminds me of NaruSaku's direct development and working for acknowledgement while the heroine helped him in becoming leader while Percy/Annabeth reminds me of the Team 7 love triangle and how the heroine was blinded a little by a false image (like Sakura with Sasuke).
