We met in August 2024 when Luca showed up at Chelsea’s work to inspect her kitchen hoods and fire extinguishers—truly the most romantic of beginnings. Spotting a Sailor Moon sticker on Chelsea’s car, Luca attempted some small talk. Chelsea was… not impressed. However, she did reward his efforts with a ham and cheese croissant, which felt like a win. Fast forward to February, when Luca returned to schedule his biannual inspection. Chelsea had just gotten back from vacation and was, for the first time, potentially open to love. A week later, Luca came back to perform his duties—but promptly got locked out of the building. While waiting for Chelsea to let him in, he took another look at her car and noticed the rest of her stickers: “Be Salt and Light,” “I Like My Yokes Easy,” and “Jesus Changes Everything.” That’s when he thought, “This girl might not be the Subaru sticker loving lesbian I thought she was" (It's a Colorado thing) He was right. Chelsea explained the stickers, and just like that, the two talked through his entire inspection. Chelsea noticed that Luca’s head nearly hit the doorframe. Luca noticed… the twinkle in her eye. Phone numbers were exchanged to continue talking about faith and Jesus, and Luca confidently set a date for February 23. A few days later, he had a thought: “Maybe I should actually get to know her before our date in two weeks.” So, on Valentine’s Day morning, he sent a text—an excellent one. What followed was the exchanging of full-on novels via text (ah, Millennials). And the rest is history 🤍
