James and I met during my freshman and his sophomore year, at Warner University. Me, from small town Ohio, and him, from big city London. We were on Warner’s men’s and women’s soccer teams, and the field is the first place James says he remembers seeing me. The first place we actually met was in Warner’s library during laser tag, when he made fun of me for accidentally shooting my own teammates (it was dark in there!). I whipped my head around thinking, “Who is that, I don’t even know this person and he’s making fun of me?!”. He flashed a smile, I laughed, and the next thing I knew we literally crashed into each other while trying to run and find a safe hiding place! We both yelled, turned around and ran away from each other. Not long after, he asked if I’d like to get a milkshake with him, and of course I agreed, not knowing that I’d be referred to as “milkshake” for at least the next year by him and our friends. The date was perfect and now here we are, a little over 6 years later, planning our wedding! We can’t wait to see everyone together, having fun, and celebrating with us!
