One Thursday night we were briefly introduced to each other by mutual friends in Laredo where Coty was attending school. I remember the next day my roomies & I were planning to go shopping at the mall & when I found out Danny was going also I was so nervous. He already gave me butterflies. We didn't buy a thing that day but instead walked around the mall just getting to know each other. (He did walk into each store I wanted to go in & didn't complain, which is good boyfriend material!) We found out we only had a few days to hang out until Danny had to leave for work & I would leave for Christmas break. So we hung out some more. Lots of Chick-fil-a, Whataburger, & Pizza dates! Different time zones and an ocean apart didn't stop our conversations. We constantly talked throughout the day even after Danny worked a long shift in the oilfield he still made time. When we were finally back in Laredo at the same time, we tried to meet up at our friend's house for their birthday...my teammates and I never made it because we got caught by my volleyball coach for missing curfew check!! Haha. He was worth it! We did find a way to meet up despite that mishap & Danny asked me to be his girlfriend soon after in 2012. So after all this time? Always<3
