We met our freshman year of high school through mutual friends but didn't start talking until our Sophmore year. Much like Troy and Gabriella from HSM, he was into sports, and I was...not. Our worlds collided on stage in the form of musical theater, and it was there that we found common ground that grew into a beautiful friendship. I guess you could say it was the start of something new.
We started dating on May 30th, 2012 right after hanging out semi-alone together for the first time outside of school. I remember calling Nicholas from my closet, asking him out, and hanging up before he could turn me down, but would you believe it he said yes! we knew to falling in love would take time and we were willing to wait. About a month into the relationship I knew I was going to marry Nicholas it was only a matter of when.
Fast forward 7 years, 2 graduations, several job changes, and a dog later on the 4th of July I'm lead outside and greeted by both of our families lined up with sparklers in hand, and at the end my best friend, the love of my life, walking towards me. that night nick got down on one knee and popped the question. I'll never know what he really said that night I just know that the world seemed so much brighter with him by my side.
