As teens hanging out in our neighborhoods public pool, we had mutual friends and only seen each other in passing most days. On this day, he dunked me in the pool (his story is that he was flirting, my story is that he tried to drown me) and I retaliated by asking my cousin to beat him up! I did not see him much after. We didn't speak for years.
I was on all the social media sites, meeting new people and reconnecting with old friends when I saw his profile on Tagged. I sent a private message asking if he remembered me. He replied after a few days (and some investigating I'm sure) and we began to chat a few times a week, then everyday. We eventually exchanged phone numbers and talked all the time. He would meet me for lunch while I was working or come by the house after work for small visits. It wasn't until October 15th that we made our dating official by telling each other I Love You for the first time. (Him First ;)
We were with friends on the Augusta Ferry as they were leaving to go back home after a fun filled weekend at our new home. Thomas got down on one knee behind me and waited for me to turn around. My long-time friend Kelly got a look of shock on her face and told her husband Matt "Look babe, he is doing it" so I turned around and there he was, shaking like a leaf on a tree. He asked me to be his wife, and placed the perfect ring on my finger... A single diamond within the Deathly Hollows symbol. Of course I said YES!
