It's Happening!

It all started at a mutual friend’s house. Jackie got a text message, urging her to swing by to meet someone who she might “hit it off with”. Chris was simply hanging out with his best friend that night. The meet started with awkward introductions and progressed to desert. Conversations were around podcasts, jobs, family, but the hook that snared them both was music. Music has always played a significant role in both Chris and Jackie’s lives but has never played a more important role in their lives until the conversation that took place that night around Steven Tyler. Jackie has always been a healthy sceptic. Her skepticism didn’t take a break even when meeting new people. Chris mentioned a new band that he had discovered and their cover of Steven Tyler’s song Dream On. Jackie basically refused to believe that anyone could cover this song and sound just like Steven, as Chris claimed. Chris connected to the Bluetooth speaker and played Dream On by Black Top Mojo. Proven pleasant wrong, Jackie didn’t really speak to her other two friends in the room for the rest of the night because Chris and she didn’t have a pause in conversation. Even though Chris mentioned that he had to work the next day, what Jackie didn’t realize is that he started work at 4am. Chris went to bed as Jackie gathered her things to leave around 12:30am. Finally realizing that Chris was only going to get roughly 2 hours of sleep, just to talk to her, Jackie texted Chris to apologize as she got in her car to go home and told him she hoped to see him again. The rest is history!
