The first time they saw each other, he had stumbled across her in a field of flowers. She immediately asked, to his surprise, why he had a venus flytrap on his head. She found it funny that he had a split personality, she liked to mock it. She was naïve to who he really was. The loud mouth blonde just yammered away.
The second time they met, she had found him wandering around Suna. She, of course, dragged him to the nearest ramen stand after he preformed Henge to shoot off more questions. He surprised himself by answering them.
The third time, he carried her back home after she had been wounded on a mission. Her team mates were dumbfounded when they came back with medics. She couldn't, or maybe wouldn't, explain how she got back home. A rose was her only clue.
The fourth time, he had went to collect Hidan's ring, only to find he wasn't there. He found instead a girl mourning for her sensei. He held her while she cried.
The fifth, sixth, and seventh times, they met in a teashop outside of Konoha. He brought her a different flower every time. It was a nice break for both of them from their stressful lives.
The eighth time around, he had gone into the shop to buy some flowers. By the end of the night, they ended up on top of the Hokage Mountain, eating ramen together.
The ninth time, she was in the hospital, deadly ill from a poison. Luckily for both of them, he could merge with the spider plant next to her bed. It wasn't very comfortable for him.
The tenth time, they had to fight each other. Neither of them wanted to hurt each other, so he knocked her out quickly. She understood.
The eleventh time, it was a formal occasion. "Zetsu-san." She said with a bow. They were representing their groups in a treaty at last. He found himself a job at the prison and was able to see her everyday.
The twelfth time was a date. She wore a black kimono with a gold dragon wrapped around her entire length. They danced the night away.
The thirteenth time, a chorus of "Happy Birthday Ino!" was heard throughout Konoha. It was there he proposed to her.
