Chris and Sarah met at City Mouse for their mutual friend, Curly's, birthday dinner. Chris had gotten there earlier and was loosening up with some pre-dinner drinks with everyone else. No surprise, Sarah took too long to get ready, was running very late, and had arrived just before dinner. Once Sarah arrived, introductions were made, and everyone sat down for dinner. Chris was sitting at one end of the large 16 person table and Sarah was at the other. The two had a perfect view of one another. Chris whispered to his friends during dinner, "I'm going to marry that girl". After dinner, everyone decided to go out for some drinks. The large group was waiting in line outside of the bar. Sarah kept standing next to Chris and bumping shoulders with him. She was drawn to him, but he couldn't even look at her. For the first time in his life, Chris was speechless. After a night of drinking, dancing, and brief goodbyes, everyone parted ways. Chris eventually got up the courage to message Sarah on the always reliable Facebook Messenger. They had made plans to meet up for sushi with their best friends, Curly and Joe. And finally, soon after, the two went on their official first date for brunch and the rest is history.
