After meeting Austin for the first time, I jokingly told him one day we'd just have to get married. 13 years later, here we are! Our relationship started as friends. Endless phone conversations led to a bond that grew so strong during those first two years that nothing was going to break it. I specifically remember our first kiss. It was truely like a movie.. he walked out my front door, and I just leaned back into it, grabbing my chest because what I felt was so explosive and terrifying. In my true fashion, I ran as far as I could There were years from that day that went on where we were learning about ourselves, what we wanted in life or didn't want, but he never stopped calling or letting me know he was there and loved me. Life happened, mistakes happened, lessons were learned but he showed me an unconditional love that couldn't be shaken. Three and a half years ago we committed to each other, and I will spend the rest of my life learning to love him the way his heart desires.
