It all started back in our college days at Sacramento State University. I remember the exact moment: I was buried in a paper on the second floor of the University Union when Marco's laughter broke through the noise. I looked up, and there he was, with that infectious smile that caught me off guard. We ran in similar circles, sharing a few mutual friends, but it was Marco's presence that stood out to me. We started hanging out with our friend group, playing games and just enjoying each other's company. Soon enough, I found myself adding him on Facebook, and our conversations quickly turned from casual banter to something more. After a bit of back and forth, we finally went on our first date. From there, things just clicked. We enjoyed each other's company, and before we knew it, we were officially dating.
