Tyus and Diamond met at Centennial High School in their 3rd period art class. Tyus offered to help Diamond with her project and help turned into him doing the entire project for her ( : That then led to a friendship turning into a best friendship.
Diamond and Tyus talked to each other A LOT. They would get in trouble for talking to each other in class. Teachers moved their assigned seats across the room from each other and still found a way to talk to each other. When they weren't at school, they were on the phone or on ooVoo. Conversations went from a few hours to falling asleep over the phone or on camera. The bond became unbreakable. Best friends and friend dates turned into flirting and actual dates. Best friends starting in August of 2011 turned into a relationship August of 2012.
Tyus took Diamond to their special spot at Hoover Dam for their 8 year anniversary. He set up a picnic and paint date. Art has always been a thing Tyus and Diamond bonded over, considering how they met. As Diamond was painting, Tyus was busy painting "Will You Marry Me" on a canvas with a beautiful ring in hand.
