How We Met

We first met in first grade when Bella was assigned to sit next to Jaedan in class. It wasn’t exactly love at first sight… until Bella saw that Jaedan had the ultimate flex for a 6-year-old: twistable colored pencils. That was it — she was in love. Bella had a crush on Jaedan all through high school, but nothing ever happened. Fast forward to 2022 — Bella was on a girls’ trip in Scottsdale and found out Jaedan had just moved there. So naturally, she decided to message him after years of not talking to tell him that she still found him very attractive. One message turned into Jaedan flying across the country to meet up with her a few weeks later… and the rest is history. Moral of the story: bring the good school supplies, and don’t underestimate the power of a spontaneous DM.
