Johnny and I were introduced by my cousin JJ, and from the moment our eyes met, there was a spark — the kind that feels like it’s been there forever. While I lived in Seattle, our love grew across miles. We stayed connected through late-night calls, shared prayers, and endless encouragement for each other’s dreams. Every holiday together felt like a glimpse of the life we were meant to share. When I moved home for good, everything fell into place. On our very first date, Johnny had asked the Texas Roadhouse staff to surprise me with a cheesecake that said, “Will you be my girlfriend?” But somewhere along the way, they made a sweet mistake — it came out reading, “Will you marry me?” We both laughed, but in my heart, I knew the answer would one day be yes. Now, the miles are behind us, and the forever we dreamed about is finally here.
