We’ve crossed paths several times but neither of us spoke to each other. Franklin apparently asked a co-worker of mine about me, but since I was new, they didn’t have much information for him. (She just wouldn’t stop staring at me on calls so I had to make sure she wasn’t a stalker) Months later we ran into each other, within days of one another. Unfortunately, the calls we were on together, weren’t the best of the best. Both of those calls people lost someone that was very close to them, but in the mist of it all, we found each other. Franklin refused to leave the scene until my back up arrived. We were outside just talking until my partner arrived. I was so distracted, I completely forgot to get all of the information that was needed for the report (Since she was mesmerized by my smile). So I contacted dispatch to get a phone number for whoever was on scene. Franklin gave his cell phone instead of his work number. I guess he figured, it’s now or never. (I actually did not know my work phone number) He was lucky it was me who called and I didn’t pass the phone number to the trainee who took the report. (It goes without saying, we all know who the lucky one actually was that day) About a week or so later, Franklin reached out to find out some information on a previous call. Realistically, we all know that was a big excuse just to talk to me, haha! From that moment on, we started talking (But not before she completed a full FBI/CIA background check on me). We couldn’t wait to go to work, because we knew we’d see each other. We became each others light through our darkest moments. We fell in love and couldn’t be any happier! We’ve created a new beginning we both truly deserve. Now, 4 years later, we’re getting married! (She has been planning the wedding since the first day she laid eyes on me)
