Cohlton and Jada went to high school together, so they had spoken to one another a handful of times. The first was when he went to her house to spend time with her older brother and she had to hand deliver Taco Bell to them. The second was when Jada posted a picture of her math homework, asking if anyone could help her understand the lesson. He responded, trying his best to help since he had taken the same class. The following year, they had a psychology class together where they both finished tests too quickly and competed for who could turn their test in first. At the end of the year, they started talking more and could no longer envision life without the other.

Jada - One of my favorite memories is the first Lee Family Ski Trip I was invited to. It was my first time skiing; I was nervous to learn but excited to spend the weekend getting to know everyone better. We spent the day skiing, which I immediately loved, and chatted after dinner. The drinks were flowing and it didn't take long until cards were brought out. I had watched the Lees play sheepshead before, but that night, they wanted me to play too. All of them, at the same time, taught me how to play, and Jeff started writing everything down so I could reference it while I played. I will always cherish the cheat sheet, with tips from the family. That night was when I knew I couldn't wait for his family to become mine, too. Cohlton - Some of my favorite memories are Jada's family weekend up north at her grandparents cabin, spending time fishing and sitting around a campfire. They have always accepted me into their world and even showed me their favorite fishing spots. Another favorite memory is when we went to Automotion with Jada's dad. We saw so many cool vehicles and I got to know her family a lot better - especially that Brandon does not like fake cheese. I was grateful to be able to learn more about cars from him and always looked forward to hanging out and talking about our builds. During these talks, he would ask me to promise that I would always take care of his daughter, and I always promised knowing that I would do anything to keep it.

"A pod of orcas is terrorizing the seas and tipping boats as a sick orca joke." That's what Jada told Cohlton right before he asked if she would like to go on a cruise with his family. It was a gorgeous 7 day Caribbean cruise that left out of Puerto Rico. Mentally ill orcas were worth it. After seeing Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, they went to St. Lucia. If you haven't been to St. Lucia, don't ask them any questions because they only saw the port. Cohlton had gotten sick and could barely speak, so they used the day to explore the ship. That night after dinner, they went for a walk around the deck to watch St. Lucia fade into the distance. While Jada was watching the waves created by the back of the ship, he was behind her, getting down on one knee. Through his raspy voice, he asked if she'd spend her life with him. After saying saying a tearful yes, they went back to their room, where he was able to give her a heartfelt speech without verbally battling the wind and ship.
