We had been chatting on Facebook during the pandemic and previously decided to plan a bike ride around McIntosh Lake on a Saturday morning. On this day though, I had some beverages while video chatting with Michael and admitted to a crush on him. He then reminded me of how I said "no" to him for Junior Prom. So instead of waiting for the bike ride around the lake that weekend, I asked what he had going on the next day. All he had to do was mow his lawn and work a half day. I thought, "I like mowing lawns!" So I asked if I could mow his lawn the next day. Of course, he said yes! On May 22, 2021 Lauren went to Michael's and mowed his lawn, and he decided they were going to "do this" because he needed to keep her for agricultural reasons.
