Brandon and I met through my husband at the time. He was an old friend from school that got back into contact with him after we had moved back from West Virginia. We became really good friends in that time frame, and as a group hung out a lot. In 2015 Brandon moved into my apartment as a room mate and things took off from there. We made our relationship official on July 19th of the same year.
So this story starts and ends with a bridge. There was a bridge that went over a little creek that ran behind our apartment complex. We would walk out to the bridge ever few days and on those walks would get to know each other. If something was bothering us you could always be sure that we could be found gazing into the slow moving water. After a date on Jan 20th we decided that we wanted to go hang out in "our spot". I was looking at the water under a blanket of stars. He say "Hey babe", and when I turned around he was on one knee with my ring. How could you say no to that!
