Best friends first, soulmates forever

We met in elementary school, but honestly, neither of us remembers much from then. In reality our friendship began in middle school choir. Despite our friendship, we we're always engaged in competition, and it was not always friendly. It took us a while to become really close friends, we had to overcome 8th grade first. But once we were connected, we were inseparable. From choir trips, to school dances, to getting in trouble because we stayed up to late playing Fortnite. It wasn't long before I realized that he was one of my closest friends. It wasn't just the shared jokes or history, there was a connection that we simply couldn't ignore. From freshman homecoming to our first married dance, we are ecstatic to have found our forever partner.
