They first met at Straw Hat Pizza, both of their first jobs. Angie was a cashier and Brad made pizzas in the back. At only 16, all it took to ignite a connection was a personal pizza and a shared lunch break. Whenever they shared shifts, Brad would make them his special creation - a personal pizza with white garlic sauce topped with chicken, bacon, and green bell peppers. Lunch breaks turned into jamming out to their favorite music as they cleaned the banquet room after a big party at closing time. As time went on their friendship grew but stayed innocent. Eventually Straw Hat closed down and they lost touch. It wouldn't be for another few years before they would reconnect again.
Brad was home for the summer after his first year of college and Angie was ready for an exciting summer with her girls. In true Millennial fashion, it started with a comment on Instagram. The first text turned to their first date which turned to their first kiss. The next few months were full of crazy nights doing whatever they could just to see each other - Drive-in movie theaters, baseball games, and 18+ clubs just to name a few. Their feelings were as strong as ever but the timing just wasn't right. They were both still so young and it was decided that neither of them were ready for a relationship.
They didn't leave off on the best note but they were brought back together by mutual friends. As Brad and his friends shared the first drink of the night, Angie walked in in her Nurse costume. More beautiful than she had ever been she took his breathe away. He tried to fight his feelings but by the end of the night it was clear to both of them that they wanted to give it another shot. It only took them until New Years Eve to make it official. Since then, they've enjoyed years of seeing the world and growing together through life's many milestones.
