It all started one night after I left a birthday party with friends to cool off. As fate would have it, nearby was a rowdy group of guys drinking, laughing, and shouting at innocent pedestrians. They were obnoxiously yelling, “How did you get it?” and after my friend shot back with a bold, “Get what?” we ended up walking over to see what all the commotion was about. That’s when I first saw him, quiet, sweet Nolan, standing among the chaos. He was wearing black shorts and a Pirates jersey, and even though I noticed him immediately, he didn’t notice me at all. To this day, he still insists he doesn’t remember my existence that night. The next morning, I couldn’t stop thinking about him. So after a little cyber-stalking, I found him. I gathered my courage and messaged him on Instagram: “Were you the cute boy in the Pirates jersey from last night?” After a few back-and-forth messages, I gave him my number though Nolan, true to his sweet but stubborn nature, waited over two weeks before finally texting me. When we finally hung out for the first time, everything just clicked. From that day forward, we’ve been inseparable. And now, five years later, after countless adventures, laughs, and memories, we’re finally getting married!
