Our Unique Story

We like to think that our story is very special. Here it is. Camden and Gianna initially met each other at the local Subway in Bradley, Illinois. Gianna had been working at this subway for over two years and one day, Camden came strolling in. This is how the conversation went: "Hi welcome in, what can I get started for you?" "Hmmm, what do you get?" "I normally eat a BMT...It has pepperoni, salami, and ham" *Camden makes a face, implying that doesn't sound good* "Or you don't have to get that" Gianna said with a smile. Camden then smiles (Gianna thinks he liked the sass from the beginning) and says, "Make me one exactly how you make yours" They both smiled and Gianna perfectly crafted the best tasting sandwich. He then made sure to ask which cookie was the best and got that as well. I think Camden knew what he was doing... But then he left! After Camden got the delicious sandwich, he made the decision to NOT ask for Gianna's number. I know. Gianna couldn't believe it either. Just a couple days later, Gianna gets a direct message on Instagram from someone she does not recognize but has "ONU" in their bio. Because she didn't recognize the photo, she responded very shortly to this man. He got the hint. About a week later, Camden came back into Subway and Gianna was working. Camden was not as friendly with her. She was confused! She made his food and they hardly made eye contact. After he left, it hit Gianna...She realized that was the person who messaged her on Instagram. All the pieces were coming together! She then ran to the back of Subway, went onto the account who messaged her, and zoomed in on some of his photos. "It's him! It is the same guy who came in a week ago!" Gianna then messaged the person on Instagram, who we now know was Camden, and made sure it was him. It was! Now she understood why he was not as friendly with her the second time around because of how she responded on the messages before knowing it was him. You may still be wondering how Camden even got Gianna's Instagram. Let me tell you. A couple days after Camden and Gianna initially had their interaction, Camden came back in (freshly showered and looking his best) in hopes to see Gianna working and to get her number. She wasn't there so Camden got her Instagram from her coworker. Moral of the story is go to your local Subway and update your social media profile pictures...Just in case.
