It was January 2018 at 1/48 Battalion and we were on funeral detail. Eddie came in and he didn’t have the unit crest I told him I had some at home. I gave him my number and told him to text me and remind me to bring the crest. Long story short I forgot them; we began work together in Foxtrot company 1/48 Battalion and he was my only friend because I hated it there. From there we became workout partners and best friends. We went everywhere together in a city that had nowhere to go but we were still friends. Eddie would invite me out to eat or drink and I would always say NO because it was after my night shower. After months of liking me but saying nothing Eddie finally told me how he felt about me in May 2018. The rest was history and we fell in love.
