1st Came Love...

How We Met - HIS VERSION & her version - Told in One Love Story

So many things happened, in all the right ways, with incredible amounts of effort, for us to meet that unforgettable night of April 14th. ITS LIKE I KNEW I WAS GOING TO MEET SOMEONE WHO WOULD CHANGE MY LIFE FOREVER. It started in Cancun for my 30 & flirty birthday trip! The 1st night we arrived we danced our way to the bar. INSTEAD OF GOING OUT TO THE CLUB, NOAH & I DECIDED TO STAY AT THE RESORT & GET FREE DRINKS AT THE BAR (BEST DECISION EVER). I SAW SOME LOUD GIRLS ALL TAKING PICTURES OF EACH OTHER. Being the thoughtful, sweet man he is “Teej” said to his friends, “SOMEONE SHOULD TAKE A PICTURE FOR THEM SO THEY CAN ALL BE IN IT TOGETHER.” Tanner being tall & handsome meant he WAS THE BEST MAN FOR THE JOB. AS SOON AS I GOT THE COURAGE he offered to take a picture for the Hot Mess Expresses. THEN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IVE EVER LAID MY EYES ON walked up to this sexy stranger & stole his sunglasses RIGHT OFF MY SHIRT; IM NOT SURE WHY SHE DID IT BUT I AM SO HAPPY SHE DID; IT GAVE ME BUTTERFLIES. At this very moment I told Kota I wanted to kiss my 1st random stranger! WHEN I WENT TO GET MY SUNGLASSES BACK KOTA SAID “Its her birthday, you should kiss her!” & without hesitation Tanner TOOK FULL ADVANTAGE (THANK YOU LIQUID COURAGE) grabbed my face & sparks flew! IT WAS A MAGICAL 1ST KISS! EVERYONE & EVERYTHING WENT AWAY, IT WAS JUST ME & HER. Time. Stood. Still…IT FROZE COMPLETELY. NOTHING ELSE MATTERED, NO ONE ELSE MATTERED. ONLY HER, ME & AN AMAZING 1ST KISS THAT SEEMED TO LAST FOREVER. The best part was he never hesitated, not even for a second & since that night hes never hesitated; through our entire relationship hes always been all in! I WOULDVE NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS THOUGHT I’D HAVE THE CHANCE TO KISS HER, LET ALONE EVERYTHING ELSE THATS HAPPENED AFTER. In true flirty 30 fashion I casually pulled away, smiled & walked outside - of course freaking out to my friends I just had the most incredible 1st kiss with a sexy stranger & needed to kiss him again & again for the rest of the trip (& my life) if I had it my way! If my only birthday wish was to get to know him better, I’d be happy. I COULDNT STOP THINKING ABOUT HER & EVEN THOUGH I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT HER SHE WAS SOMEHOW GOING TO CHANGE MY LIFE COMPLETELY. IM NOT SURE WHERE SHE WENT BUT I HUNG OUT IN THE BAR WAITING FOR ANOTHER MOMENT WITH HER HOPING I WOULD LOOK UP, SEE HER & TALK TO HER, AT LEAST GET HER NAME, GET TO KNOW HER BETTER. After collecting myself with my girls never ending encouragement I walked back into the bar. FINALLY! THERE SHE WAS. I saw him standing across the bar but didnt make eye contact. THE SECOND I SAW HER I HAD TO GO SAY HI; I COULDNT MISS A CHANCE TO GET CLOSER TO HER & like he has every day since then he read my mind & walked over to me…TRYING TO ACT COOL, I SLID IN NONCHALANTLY NEXT TO HER. He said “Hi” & smiled like any old friend would. THEN SHE DID SOMETHING MAKING ME FALL IN LOVE WITH HER IN THAT MOMENT…I couldnt resist! It felt so right so I reached over & kissed him again. It felt like WE’D BEEN TOGETHER FOR YEARS. I pulled back & said, “HI!” WITH A BIG BEAUTIFUL SMILE. TO THIS DAY SHE DOES THIS EVERY TIME SHE GETS HOME FROM WORK. IT ALWAYS BRINGS ME BACK TO THIS MOMENT & MAKES ME FALL IN LOVE WITH HER OVER & OVER AGAIN. NOW I REALLY COULDNT THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE BUT HER. I DIDNT EVEN KNOW HER NAME, YET I FELT SO COMFORTABLE & CONFIDENT WITH HER NEXT TO ME. We introduced ourselves, not that it would matter because he would forget my name 20 mins later, calling me LUCY - STRIKE 1. I CANT REMEMBER EVERYTHING WE TALKED ABOUT BECAUSE THE WHOLE TIME I WAS THINKING “WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!” After a few hours of talking I wanted to leave the night in Gods hands seeing as He’d done such a phenomenal job up to this point. SHE WOULDNT TELL ME HER LAST NAME, NUMBER, ANYTHING THAT WOULD HELP ME FIND HER AGAIN. AT THAT POINT I PUT IT IN GODS HANDS; HE WOULD BRING US BACK TOGETHER & MAKE IT SO OUR STORY WASNT OVER but just beginning!
