Carson and I met our freshman year first semester in our honors english course. We didn't talk much because someone was a little nervous to talk to the other (I won't say who). We truly started talking our sophomore year toward the end of our first semester. On a cold, rainy day in November, Carson offered to give me a ride across campus because I had walked to the anatomy class we had together. Of course I forgot my umbrella in my car that was on the other side of campus. A drop off to the science building turned into us talking in his car for an hour in between our classes about our lives and families. During this conversation, we knew something sweet had started and this is where our love story truly begins. After this, we had texted and decided we wanted to hang out. Being the broke college students we were, our first date was a movie night at my on-campus apartment. At the end of the date, we said our goodbyes and surprisingly he did not kiss me goodnight. I was so nervous he did not like me but after he left, but he asked me if we could hang out again. This time he did kiss me goodnight and shortly after he asked me to be his girlfriend on December 8th, 2019. Since then, we have had a rollercoaster life together full of laughs, amazing memories, and adding to our family (our sweet and one of a kind dog Kai). We cannot wait for this next chapter in our lives and are counting down the days until May 25th to celebrate our love with our friends and family!
