This photo is where it all began.

For some context: Before there was anything romantic, Thomas and I were just really good friends. We had been for almost two years until July 2021, when our friend group went on vacation together to Deep Creek, Maryland.

It was our first night there when I sent this picture to my mother, who immediately asked, "I think I know everyone there except that cute guy in the back." I quickly replied, "Oh, that's just Thomas!"

But her question stuck with me, and I began to ask the same thing: who was this cute guy? Curious, I started to get to know Thomas better and discovered a kindred spirit who shared my love for music, video games, movies, and art.

The rest, as they say, is history!

Travel coming soon!
