We went to middle school together and had a lot of mutual friends. We would see each other around at school, parties, or church events. I always had a crush on him, though he will say he had a crush on me first! We had many classes together throughout the years, but it wasn't until junior year of high school that we started to get to know each other better and began dating.
I have always grown up watching the sunset on my front porch swing with my parents. Sunsets have come to be one of my absolute favorite things. One day, I went out of town with my friend and her mom. Will was coming over for dinner, so I told them we had to be back in time. We began to help set up my friends mothers classroom with Christmas decorations, and I started to get irritated when they hadn't dropped me off when I asked them to yet. We finally get home, and Will was sitting on the front porch swing watching the sunset! I ran up to him (through the bushes, and completely missed the rose petals he had laid out on the walk up) and he got down on a knee! Best sunset ever!!!
