Four years ago, we met out of nowhere. I had been invited to a get-together where I didn’t know a soul, but from the moment I walked in, I couldn’t take my eyes off of Drew. Just a few days later, I found myself saying yes to a camping trip with the same group of strangers. Up in the mountains, as the sky grew dark and the stars lit up the night, Drew headed off to his hammock, and something in me told me to follow. That was the first night we ever spoke.

Life had its own timing, and at first it wasn’t quite ours. But a year later, Drew found his way back—and that’s when we finally became us.
