It was my Senior year and his Junior year of highschool! We both started off sitting back-to-back until I built enough courage to ask if he had any sisters. The teacher would shout a role call every morning and I recognized his last name. That's when Ej said "Yeah I'm sorry, you probably know my two older sisters Delia and Jessica". Sure enough I did Lol! That's when Ej immediately moved tables and grabbed a seat beside mine. Months went by, we talked as friends, I helped him with his art work, nothing more! I worked with Jessica (Ej's oldest sister) and saw Ej at my job after drillteam practice one evening. He was with his dad and I remember making the point of saying Hi to him that day! His dad (Kenneth) eventually told me Ej was working up the nerve to ask me out! That December, my birthday weekend, I had a message from Ej! Something along the lines of him asking me what am I doing for my bday and wanting to hang out. Well I had plans, so we scheduled for the following weekend to go to a friends party with his sister. It was Christmas break from school, party was great, and that's when Ej poured his feelings out to me! Things were definitely awkward when we went back to art class. Everyone knew when we were arguing because I would not help Ej with his art work if needed! Eventually we met each others family, we have been on several trips together, and can't wait to explore greater things in life together! I wouldn't want to adventure life with anyone else! I'm pursuing my Nursing dream and Ej has his Autobody Certification. Ej also wants to start riding bulls in the near future, maybe! Since December 22, 2012 life has never been better! We keep each other sane, whole, and motivated. Our lives are just beginning. We have three fur babies; Hazel, Trixie, and Bella🐶🐱🐶 This is the Painting of Our Love Story💜
