Starting the summer of 2014, both of us started working at the Portillo's in Elgin, I.L. About a hundred bread ties and innumerable cases of unintentional flirting later, and we decided to "try it out" (her words, not his). First came the movies ('Gone Girl' is NOT a good way of setting the scene, but there you have it), then came bowling (we both failed at it, but "Minion 2," who was a combo of us both, was amazing!), and finally was Lazer Tag, the official first date! Since then, lots of things have happened! School meant a busy time for both of us; but mid-week, we would always find a day to spend time with one another, watching movies or One Piece, doing homework, or going on an adventure (even if it was to a mundane place, like the store or the mall). Becca moved down to Bloomington-Normal in 2016 to be closer to school, and Wayne followed her in 2019. In that same year, Wayne surprised her by getting us an adorable cat, Tilli. She later surprised him by getting the goodest boi, Benny, in 2020. Both Wayne and Rebecca are super excited for this upcoming day and the years that will follow!!!!!
