We met by chance. Summer of 2016, I get invited to a bonfire at my friends new boyfriends house who happened to be one of Lee's buddies. Later that night, Lee pulls up in his big green lifted pick up and cowboy boots with pallets to burn. He didn't say much to me that night, I did most of the talking. Shocking, I know. But we sure had a lot of fun by the crackling fire. At the end of the night as we go to leave, Lee stood at the top of the gravel driveway. My 2007 Pontiac Vibe's headlights blaring into the biggest puppy dog eyes I've ever seen, looking at me like "where are you going?". And with that look, I knew I had to know him. After all, I am a sucker for a puppy. We've been inseparable ever since.
