Brooke's version: Our beautiful love story all started with a drunk text from Benjamin to myself. "If you're Alyshia's sister sorry bout the random text she told me to-Ben" Having an idea who this random Ben was, I went and stalked him on Instagram. I'd be lying if I told you I didn't think he was pretty cute! Our first date I was his wedding date to one of his buddy's weddings, we spent the whole weekend together in Aurora. Bold, right? I was pretty nervous. Nothing like going to spend a weekend with a complete stranger. Actually, if I'm being honest, the first date was Friday night eating Qdoba, the way to my heart, and meeting up with Ricky (Matthew), one of Ben's groomsmen. We then proceeded to have some drinks at the MarBar in Marquette. The second date was the wedding. Saturday I met and we rode along with Ben's best man and his wife, Chase and Michaela, along with another groomsmen, Pledj (Tyler). Again, another night filled with a lot of fun! Oh! I also believe I had the pleasure of sharing a conversation with drunk Dane, a groomsmen, later that night over the phone. Despite the amount of alcohol that may have been consumed that weekend, I had a lot of fun with Benjamin and couldn't wait for the third date! Ben's version: Alyshia told me that Brooke thought I was cute and she gave me her number, so I texted her.
