We were both students at Valdosta State University when our paths first crossed. We followed each other on twitter, but had never actually seen each other in person. We officially met in person at a Creative Media & Marketing meeting in August 2011. We were tweeting each other back and forth one night, and that’s when I (Shay) made my move. I slid my phone number in his twitter DMs that night, and that's pretty much where our story “begins”. A couple days later, we were all hanging out at 802 (Blanton), and Quis was bragging about how he hadn't been beat in Madden '12 since purchasing it. Jokingly, I challenged him to a game and he handed me the second controller. Long story short, I threw a Hail Mary to DeSean Jackson with 6 seconds left on the clock and handed him his first L. Being the sore loser that he was, he tried to make me run the game back. He began making all types of excuses as to why he lost. He forever stands by my settings were on "All Pro" and not "All Madden". I took my W and left. It took Quis a few days to recover from that L. After Quis finally got over that loss, we began to hang out more, and a few weeks later, we went on our first date. After a few months of dating, we decided to make things official on April 17, 2012. We have truly been inseperable ever since. I (Shay) graduated from VSU in December 2014, and Quis in May 2015. A year later, we moved to Gwinnett County to begin our careers. After dating, loving, and supporting each other for 5 1/2 years, Charquis decided it was finally time to take the next step. On May 13, 2017, surrounded by family and friends, Charquis got down on one knee and asked me to marry him, and I said "YES"!
