Contrary to popular belief, it wasn't love at first sight.
They were eight years old the first time Sasuke saw Hinata being introduced to the class. She was small and chubby with well-rounded cheeks and short midnight blue hair.
He heard other boys say grimly that they would rather be hit by a shuriken rather than attempt a conversation with her. Waiting for her to finish her sentence was rather tedious. Naturally, Sasuke had done his utmost to avoid her whenever possible and it wasn't a difficult task for the timid Hyuuga heiress was known to hide in corners.
It wasn't until he heard her cheer for Naruto amidst the loud crowd of their classmates during a practice match that he took notice of her. The way her eyes danced with hope and admiration as the dobe tried to stand up and fight back proved to be Sasuke's undoing.
He had never felt jealousy for Naruto until that day.
For Sasuke who had been used to the respect and admiration of girls and boys alike, being ignored was something foreign to him. Girls threw themselves at him but Hinata did none of those things. For years, Sasuke grew frustrated as Hinata ignored all his efforts to get her attention. He didn't know why he even bothered but deep down he wanted her to look at him the same way she had looked at Naruto.
Perhaps it was what they called love but he wasn't sure.
Hinata infuriated him, confused him and exasperated him. His opinion didn't change until the day he saw her one day practicing shuriken and missing every target. As her shoulders slumped with defeat and then squared in determination, Sasuke walked away, smirking and thinking to himself, "I'm going to marry her."
