Once upon a time, in a small town, two young hearts crossed paths in Junior High. Their eyes met right before the bell rang, and a spark ignited between them. As they grew older, their connection deepened, and they found themselves riding the bus together for high school. Every day, they would sit next to each other, sharing stories and discussing their wildest ideas. Their bond became so strong that they ended up having their first class together. They couldn't help but look at each other so much that the teachers had to separate them to maintain order in the classroom. But no matter where they sat, their eyes always found each other. One day, they decided to go on a small hangout to the movies. It was a fun and memorable experience that made them realize how much they enjoyed each other's company. However, as time went on, they got their driver's licenses and stopped taking the bus together. It was a bittersweet moment as they had to say goodbye to their daily bus rides and find new ways to stay connected. Despite their busy schedules, they managed to stay in touch through Snapchat and set up more dates. They would constantly flirt with each other, always finding ways to make each other smile. One lucky July 4th, in 2016, they decided to hang out again. They watched the fireworks together and talked throughout the night. However, the timing wasn't right for them to take their relationship to the next level. Months passed, and their flirtation continued. One rainy day, too wet for their usual longboarding plans, they decided to go see a movie together. On their way back, they played "Don't Let Me Down" by The Beatles and sang along. They didn't want the night to end, so they went off-roading and kept driving until it was late and they had to go home. Off-roading became a regular activity for them. It became their way of escaping the world and immersing themselves in each other's company. They would listen to music, talk about life, and share their goals and dreams almost daily. Their bond grew stronger with each adventure they embarked on. Eventually, the time came for them to attend prom together. It was evident to everyone around them that they were more than just friends. They decided to make their relationship official, and their love blossomed. That summer became a whirlwind of adventures, and they were inseparable. After two years of being together, they made the bold decision to move to Hawaii. It turned out to be the best year of their lives, filled with endless sunshine, stunning beaches, and unforgettable memories. But their journey didn't end there. They eventually moved back to Utah and decided to add another member to their little family. They welcomed a cute little puppy named Copper into their lives. With their hearts full of love and joy, their friends and family started suggesting that it was time for them to get married. They considered it but decided to wait until they had a house of their own. Despite the challenges of the economy, they worked tirelessly and, after two years, they finally purchased their dream house. It was a testament to their determination and love for each other. Now, all they had to do was wait for the perfect moment. They planned a trip to Italy, one of their dream destinations. As they explored the enchanting streets of Bellagio, the most beautiful place they had ever seen, something magical happened. Braden got down on one knee and asked the question they had both been waiting for. It was a dream come true, a moment they had always known would come. And so, their love story continues to unfold, filled with adventure, laughter, and a deep connection that will last a lifetime. They are ready to embrace the next chapter of their lives, hand in hand, knowing that their love is a force that can overcome any obstacle.
