Let's take it back to 2009-2010. Think emo hairstyles, thick eyeliner, fauxhawks, and giant character hoodies.

Erica and Daniel met during their most embarrassing years - middle school. It was the last semester of their last year at Herman where they met through mutual friends. The pair became best friends almost instantly; hanging out at lunch time and sometimes after school while waiting to be picked up.

By graduation in 2010, the pair learned they'd be going their separate ways to different high schools. Trying their best to stay connected, they had the infamous high school mall meet-ups and talked through messenger. However, these attempts did not last very long as the two grew up.

Fast forward to 2017. Erica is in her third year of university and decides to send a message to an old friend. Their friendship started up again as if it hadn't taken a brief hiatus.

That summer, the pair became best friends and spent a lot of time together to make up for lost time. They turned 21 together. They spent time exploring the surrounding areas of San Jose and Monterey. They took group trips to Santa Cruz and San Francisco. They shared their love for music and art.

Fast forward again to December 2017. Erica is back in school and Daniel is hard at work, learning to become a chef. The two decided to go to a concert together with two amazing headliners - one was Erica's favorite and the other was Daniel's. Some might say it was meant to be.

By the end of the night, with the adrenaline pumping through their veins from one of the best concerts of their lives... the pair simultaneously confessed their middle school crushes to each other as well as their current love.

The rest is history.
