April 29th 2017, just a few days before Madison's Junior year finals her friend Lana invited her over to her apartment complex to soak up some rays at the pool and study. Little did she know she wouldn't get much studying done because Chad and the boys, who were obnoxiously loud, were having themselves a day drinking beers and blaring music. After Lana and Madison made many mean glares and exchanged awkward eye contact with the boys they eventually headed back to their apartment to have a cook out. Thinking they had finally left for good one of them came back to invite us to their cookout. Madison was reluctant to go due to needing to study for her big anatomy final that was in 3 days, but after much convincing from Lana she decided to agree to go for 1 hour..... which turned into staying for 5 hours. Chad was in charge of cooking the burgers and we hadn't spoken the whole night. Instead, Madison was sitting on the couch next to one of his friends majority of the night, playing drinking games. Chad thought Madison was interested in his friend, but little did Chad know she kept eyeing him wishing he would come over and talk to her already. She even ate 2 burgers just to show him how much she enjoyed his cooking. Eventually Madison made her way over to the kitchen counter where he and a buddy were standing. All 3 of them shotgunned a beer together to break the ice. Afterwards Chad and Madison finally got a chance to chat before the night ended. As Madison and Lana were leaving, Chad mustered up the courage to ask for her number where he offered to help her study for her anatomy final. She gave him her number and took him up on his offer. Over the next few days they studied together for hours. Chad made Madison hundreds of flash cards and quizzed her. She went from making C's on all of her anatomy exams to making an A on her final exam! She knew there was something special about Chad and he felt the same way. The rest is history!
