Margaret and Alec have known each other for what feels like forever. From high school days spent in the same friend group to countless hangouts over the years, they were always part of each other’s lives — but never quite on the same page. Years went by and Margaret didn’t know Alec was single, and Alec didn’t realize Margaret was either. Thankfully, their friends did. After a little nudging (and maybe some gentle plotting), they encouraged the two of them to go on a date. What started as a night out between “old friends” quickly turned into something much more. Conversation flowed, laughter came easily, and by the end of the evening, it was clear: this was the start of something special. From that very first date, they’ve been inseparable. What once was a comfortable friendship has grown into a love full of adventures, support, and joy — a love that feels both brand new and like it’s been there all along.
