How We Met

Enemies to Lovers

It was 2017 and Cortney had just started working at Olive Garden as a server, Andrew had already worked for OG for a couple years at this point. One of Cortney's first shift's was opening the restaurant, so she made coffee and tea, stocked up the fridge and ice, and got ready to start her day! Suddenly, this skinny bald guy walks around the corner with a crazy look on his face. Cortney was nervous immediately, not because he was so hot (he was), but because he looked utterly unhinged. "What idiot made the teas this morning?" He said. Cortney was that idiot, and she immediately burst into tears and said "It's my first opening shift asshole!" She knew immediately she would not like him. But, he apologized and introduced himself as Andrew, and said he was only joking thinking another, less brand spanking new, employee had done it. She still didn't like him, essentially telling him to stick it where the Sun don't shine. Over the next few shifts, Cortney started to realize that Andrew was actually a huge dork. He went out of his way to make others laugh, was a very hard worker, and would find any opportunity he could to talk to Cortney. After a few weeks, Andrew started sticking around to walk Cortney to her car, and eventually he hopped in the Facebook DM's. They got to know each other over time, and Cortney started to realize she liked him a lot and that they got along great! As the weeks turned into months, they realized that they cared deeply for each other on a level beyond friendship, and they began dating. The rest is history! Eight years, one old puppy, six cats, three guinea pigs, and three rabbits later, here we are. They have bought a home, gotten engaged, and started their life together. Now all that is left, is to wait for their wedding day! Cortney and Andrew are so excited to share the most special day of their lives with you, and cannot wait to see what the future holds for their little family.
