Christopher and I meet many, many YEARS ago. We have practically known each other for several decades. We even "dated" for a short time when we were younger. He made a huge impression on me as he always made me laugh and was so kind. As with many a teenage romcom-without the glittering vampires, sappy girl makeovers, where she just puts makeup on and takes her glasses off; we dated other people, hung out with different groups of friends, and he moved away and we lost touch. While scrolling through FB one day eons ago, I saw a status he posted stating he was moving back to Myrtle Beach. I messaged him letting him know that if he needed an old friend to let me know. I was living in Charleston but still traveled to Myrtle to see my family on occasion. I gave him my phone number and within minutes he called me. We talked for SEVEN hours that day just catching up and laughing. We talked every day, several times a day, until he moved back to Myrtle. It was like time had not passed and our friendship restarted from several years ago. Shortly after he was settled I came up to visit with him. When we met at PANAM restaurant, flirting happened IMMEDIATELY. He was still as attractive as I remembered from when I had a crush on him when I was a teenager. I was fighting the attraction because I was not looking for anything serious, and neither was he. I found myself going to Myrtle more and more just to see him and he would visit me as well in Charleston. Then one fine day in September he asked me to be his girlfriend. Most people would say that this was years in the making, but everything needs time to get there. This is the ending of the teenage romcom, as the two leads characters ride off into the sunset together to start their lives. We have grown together for this past decade, adopted a dog, got engaged, bought a house together, adopted another dog, and now planning a wedding. Our love story is my favorite because it is ours!
