The Story of the Marine and the Cheerleader

Once upon a time, a girl named Kailynn traveled to a tropical island and fell in love with a boy named Chad. Chad fell equally as hard and no amount of distance could keep them apart. While working for the Washington Football Team (formally the Redskins) as a cheerleader ambassador, Kailynn and some of her teammates decided to visit Hawaii and attend ProBowl. A Marine stationed in Hawaii, volunteered a couple of his Marine friends to help drive the cheerleaders around and show them the island. (I know, it was a tough job that they obviously didn’t want to take). After they landed on the island, Kailynn was collecting everyone’s baggage when she heard a voice behind her ask “can I help you with those?” Without skipping a beat or turning around, she replied “no thank you I got it.” She could do it herself without any help from some tough marine! She then proceeded to completely embarrass herself trying to pick up a bag much too heavy for her. He laughed, grabbed the bag with one hand, smiled, put on her sun hat and walked towards the exit. He wasn’t that bad. Over the next few days Chad began to ask Kailynn’s friends about her. The more he found out, the more he was drawn in. The group ate, laughed and traveled the island together. One night, in a crowded cab ride, Kailynn took a chance and kissed him. They both felt in their souls that they had met their other half. She reluctantly left and life went on. A few months later, fate reconnected them. They FaceTimed 24/7; In the morning, while they slept, ate and so on, until both of their phones burnt out. When it was time to come home, they knew they would be inseparable. And they were. They moved in together, took care of their fur babies and supported each others passions and dreams. And they lived happily ever after.
