Our love story began online, back in 2019. Both TJ and I only had an account for kicks and giggles; neither of us were looking for a relationship. But little did we know we would be kicking and giggling together until we kicked the bucket. Messages were exchanged back and forth for next few weeks, until I finally worked up the nerve to ask him to hang out. Once we had finally met in person, everything clicked from that moment on. The very first day, we stayed up all night talking and giggling and learning about each other. After that night we started hanging out on the weekends for a few months. The more that time had passed, the more we hated being away from each other. We both agreed that where ever the road took us, it was going to be slower than a Sunday stroll. Two years worth of memories later we have taken countless road trips together; from getting lost on purpose to visiting each other’s hometowns. We’ve gone from painting on canvases to painting on cars, tattooing on lemons to tattooing on actual skin. We have seen, done, and gone through so many things together in such a short time. Last August, TJ finally popped the question at my birthday get-together. Of course I said yes with tears streaming down my face. We can’t wait for this exciting new road trip!
