Chris and Briana met at Rosholt High School when Chris was the new kid who transferred in. Their first time interacting was playing volleyball on the old gym stage with other kids in the class. Briana remembered thinking " this kid is very weird.." and Chris proved to be. They eventually became friends like everyone does in a small town, talking at times and having shared friend groups. Chris was the goofy short guy who got along with everyone and Briana was focused on her sports, school and made an effort to date guys not from her town ( her dad is never letting her live down marrying someone who is in fact from her hometown now), never dreaming of viewing Chris in any way other than a friend. But Chris was determined. He would make flirtatious comments masked in jokes that nobody took seriously. After highschool, they went their seperate ways and did not talk or see eachother. Briana began hanging out with her cousin Mason and playing volleyball more, which is where Briana and Chris reconnected. At first it started as a normal friendship, but Chris was clever and determined to make it more. Slowly, Briana started to look forward to talking to and seeing Chris and a relationship slowly blossomed. From that moment on, they became inseparable. This took them to a Christmas surprise his mom was planning with some assistance from Briana. She was wanted to take Chris on the new rides as a mother/son trip to Disney. Briana was so excited to keep this secret and was so happy to help his mom. Christmas came and Briana was the one surprised. After getting his gift, he and his mom secretly coordinated and wanted to bring Briana with. He explicitly stated that there was no way he would propose on this trip and he was broke from booking the tickets as a gift. As the trip grew closer, Chris decided that he couldn't wait any longer and wanted to spend the rest of his life with Briana. He very secretly spent months finding the perfect ring, paranoid of being caught. When he finally found it, he had his mom meet him the second he bought it so that she could be in charge of it-a task that had her frazzled! Once they were at Disney, Chris waited for the perfect day and as far as either can remember, said some words about love and forever, which were overshadowed by the sheer love, nervousness and surprise that neither knows what was said besides a resounding YES!
