David and I first met in college in 2017; I was quietly doing my school work while he walked around greeting everyone. We introduced ourselves briefly, and he walked away with a cold drink in his hand. We started as friends. Fast forward 2 years, on a crisp Fall day, we had our first date playing pool and foosball. I let him win some games. After playing, we went on a walk. He asked me "What is your favorite season". I said "It's Fall because that is when everything dies! [For context: I have allergies so when pollen goes away, it's a relief!] He laughed, and that's when I knew I had him under my fingers. From then on, I've tried my best to keep him laughing and smiling.
