The buildup for a couple will always belong to my Pacey/Joey <3 We saw their COMPLETE transition from bickering childhood friends, to real friend, to Pacey's love for her, him admitting it to her, the denial, the complete non-denial of groupfests, the breaking up for childhood friend, to choosing Pacey above anyone else as her true love And then after that, we got two seasons of them from being a couple, to heartbreak, to friend, to reuniting

Max/Liz from roswell (it's one of the reasons of why i love them )
Friends to lovers to friends&lovers
They started as the sweet&innocent couple and then they gradually became more mature and passionate, more epic (although i hate this word ) when they overcame many trials and tribulations.. they really never had it easy but they won against everything even death. The 3 seasons are 3 different "layers" of a relationship in my opinion.
Also, the pilot started it all but there was a backstory there. He saw her when he was just a kid and since that moment he loved her for 10 years.. he basically grew up loving her before he actually got the chance to be with her and be loved back. They knew each other to a degree but because of him being "different" he hid his feelings and he never tried to get her attention. Then when he saved her and later when he connected to her making her see and feel all his inner feelings she got the chance to know him like no one could, she saw inside him the real him and she fell in love with him.


other couples:
i agree about Sydney/Vaughn
also Luke/Lorelai from gilmore girls

from the books
Jo/Laurie (little women) had a great build up too that's why the end is still a big WTF for me

Henry/Clare from the time traveler's wife have an unique build up too although i don't even know how to summarize it.. when time travel is involved it's a mess
But really they're a perfect "puzzle" (and paradox) created by the hand of the author.

Spike&Buffy: From mortal enemies, to reluctant allies, to friends, to lovers, to something that transcends anything I've ever seen in fiction. It was six years of the most well built love story ever

Gotta agree with this, Spike & Buffy were done VERY well.

I'll add 'Lost's' Sawyer/Kate to this list as well. Years later, their first kiss continues to blow most other television kisses out of the water!

I also love how Ron/Hermione were done in the Harry Potter series. At odds early on, their push/pull relationship, the bickering and head-butting and challenging each other, Ron's complete cluelessness (typical boy!), all leading up to a wonderful revelation...loved it!

John and Cameron from TSCC.

So natural and so beautiful. Subtle, but so real. One of my favorites ever.
