Note: Written for [livejournal.com profile] 20_truths

1. Hinata actually saw Lee for the first time at the Academy. She was making the costumes for a school play in which he was to play a part in. His costume was the first one she finished.

2. Lee played an apple in that play, annoying the rest of the cast along with the teacher by repeatedly shouting “An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Take care of those pearly whites, and your youthful spirit will be alright!” [do I detect some of Gai‘s influence in that little rhyme?] It was the first time Hinata remembers laughing in public.

3. Hinata’s favorite color is actually green. It has been so ever since she saw the beautiful jade belonging to her mother. But with the monotone coloration of her home environment as well as her own fear of standing out too much from her unadorned family, she steers away from the brightly vibrant color.

4. Lee’s favorite color is actually purple. It perfectly represents the nobility of his character and chivalrous nature. But the love and devotion that he has for his teacher far out weighs his own desires. So he settles for imitation instead of preference.

5. They share their first kiss at a Hyuuga Christmas party. It was the year that Team Gai had been put together and Hiashi wanted to assess the people that his nephew would have to rely on during their missions. After brief introductions, the two discovered that they were standing under a mistletoe. With a scratch of the head and a shuffle of their feet, they shyly indulge in the tradition of the season.

6. Lee spent the rest of the night running away from an angry Neji.

7. Hinata spent the rest of the night chasing after an angry Neji, stuttering an explanation the entire time.

8. Lee was actually rooting for Hinata to win during her match against Neji. The last thing that he wanted was another reason for the Hyuuga prodigy to hold on to his superior attitude.

9. When Naruto left for his training with Jiraiya, Hinata wasn’t as sad a people thought. After years of unrequited love, her long time crush on the blonde demon carrier had slowly disappeared. She only continued her quiet pursuit out of habit.

10. The two can attribute the start of their relationship to Shikamaru. Had he not stolen the heart of the pink-haired kunoichi, the young Green Beast of Konoha would have never noticed the beautiful Hyuuga heir.

11. Lee actually won a match against Neji once [though the Hyuuga prodigy has sworn him to secrecy]. Upon hearing about their budding relationship, Neji stated that they could go no further unless the taijutsu user could beat him in a fight. Motivated by his growing affection for the Hyuuga heiress, Lee fought ceaselessly until Neji lost from exhaustion.

12. Their first date was planned by Tenten. Finding himself nervous beyond hope, Lee enlisted the help of the older kunoichi thinking that she would have more experience. They ended up making sandwiches hand having a moonlight picnic in the park after Tenten burnt dinner because she was too busy talking on the phone with Sasuke.

13. The two had sex for the first time during a year long mission to the mountains of Hidden Cloud. The two stripped down to the barest of clothing and spent the night under several layers of blankets in each other’s arms after an avalanche left them with no supplies. Touched that he was such a gentlemen to her, Hinata asked Lee to make love to her the next morning.

14. Hinata became pregnant because of that.

15. She lost the baby three month later during another mission to Hidden Mist. The entire village is still undergoing repairs from what Lee did to it when he found out.

16. The Hyuuga Council disapproves of their relationship. Hinata is asked to break off the courtship and strongly encouraged to find a more suitable person in her same social class.

17. To the dismay of both parties, Hinata and Lee did break up for a little while. During that time, Naruto had returned from his training. Lee was heartbroken when he found the two of them out on what appears to be a date at Ichiraku. Lee runs away while Hinata tearfully tries to explain.

18. They don’t speak to each other for months until their teams are assigned to train together. The two are left alone when Tenten sneaks away with Shino [she and Sasuke have broken up for a brief moment] and Kiba challenges Neji to a spar. They sit there in awkward silence until training is over.

19. After a week of sitting in silence during training, the tension is finally broken when they decide to “kiss and make up” by going on another mission to the mountains of Hidden Cloud [courtesy of the blonde Hokage in-training *winky*]. They spend three months more than necessary there.

20. The Hyuuga Council still disapproves of the two and is greatly disappointed with the heiress. Hinata then chooses that moment to finally speak out against their ruling by telling them to “shove it up their Byakugan.”
