It was the end of our first semester of college, a time when we were looking for a break from academics, and the game room in the residence hall was buzzing excitement of the impending winter break.

Christian had walked into the game room wearing one of his New Jersey Devils jerseys, the bold red and black colors contrasting against his pale skin...LOL. His enthusiasm for the game was palpable, a vibrant energy that matched the jersey he wore. Little did he know that this very jersey would soon be a beloved memory for two people about to begin a remarkable journey together.

Alexa was sitting at one of the pool tables, the cue stick in her hand, her focus entirely on her game. The game room had always been her escape, a place where she could clear her mind, challenge herself, and hustle a few people in a game of pool. That day, her concentration was interrupted by the sight of the guy in the Devils jersey, who had just strolled in with a relaxed confidence.

We talked about our favorite sports teams, classes, and life back home. It was as if we had known each other for years instead of just hours.

From that day forward, the game room became our place. We spent countless hours there, playing pool, talking, discovering more about each other, and making lifelong friends. It was the backdrop of our initial friendship, a place where our connection would deepen.

Months passed, and our journey together evolved from casual acquaintances to inseparable companions. Our love grew, marked by shared experiences, adventures, and the everyday moments that only strengthened our bond.

The Devils jersey became a cherished symbol of our first meeting, a reminder of where it all began.

Fast forward to today, and Devils games have become a continuation of our story and a cherished tradition that reminds us of where it began.
