Pictured Above: Jonathan & Kailey at the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority Formal 2021 in Waco.

After a few weeks of 'Ross-and-Racheling' things, Jonathan & Kailey finally decide to begin a relationship together. They attend Kailey's sorority formal together and Jonathan asks Kailey to be his girlfriend later that week. They go on their first official date on May 1st at one of their favorite restaurants in Waco--Ninfas!

Kailey sings her last choir concert at Baylor with Jonathan singing on the stage with her. One of the pieces they perform with the Baylor Chamber Singers is "How Do I Love Thee" by Eric Nelson. The text is from a sonnet written by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, a British Victorian poet, written for her husband, Robert Browning. These are the same Brownings in which the historic and beautiful Armstrong-Browning Library is named after at Baylor where Jonathan & Kailey spent dozens of Baylor Chamber Singers Rehearsals. This piece and the text will always hold an immense amount of sentimental value to them. The text has an even more important meaning to them as they are not about to be married.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of being and ideal grace.

I love thee to the level of every day’s

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for right.

I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,

Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,

I shall but love thee better after death.
