How We Met?

Tarin's POV

Picture This: It's 2017 on a Friday, I was a customer at HEB. I was doing weekly grocery shopping, but today something was different. I saw this beautiful creature bagging at check out register 12. I immediately went to that line. I'm at the register, I looked at my friends and said, " he's so hot! I have to know him." I looked at him and left the store. I came back a few days later. Went through his line while he was cashiering. I started asking about his tattoos. We discussed for a short time, and then I left. I went back again, a few days later, and started a convo about his earrings, and it got a little awkward. I got scared and left again. (LOL I KNOW I KNOW but wait it gets good...) So, I talked with friends about this crush and my fear of approaching. They told me to suck it up and give him my number. So, Keeley wrote the note and my number down for me (because my handwriting is amazing :) ). The note said, "My number, you're cute! Txt me). 15minutes later, he texted me. And it's history after that!

How We Met?

Ryan's POV

It's 2017, I'm focused and working hard. This random girl with a case of water started asking about my tattoos. We talked and it was a nice chit chat. Nice interteraction for the day. Some customers can be rude, but she was nice. Days go by, and she's in my line again, this time with ice cream. It was Blue Bell Cookie Two Step Ice Cream (it's her favorite). She asked about my earrings this time. I thought to myself, " here she is again, I remember her smile and that dress was beautiful." She leaves the store before I could even get her number. I thought, maybe she'll be back, customers always come back (wink wink). Days go by, and she walks through those sliding HEB doors. She comes to my line, I play it cool. This time she slips me a note that reads, " Here's my number, You're cute. Text me." She left, and I told my friends "Hey, this girl just gave me her number," as a smiled on the inside. 15mins later, when I took my break, I texted her. She asked me out to Olive Garden (our now favorite restuarant) and we've been connected ever since.
