Summer of 2021, they both interned at the same company in Houston. But the typical chats in the neighborhood park, late-night McDonald's runs, and movie marathons all felt different. Eventually, Macy confronted Adam about the change in his behavior, and he admitted that he liked her, and not just as a friend. Macy felt the same, but neither of them liked the sound of two years of long distance, so they attempted to just stay friends.

Fall of 2021, they realized that just being friends was not working out for them, so Macy and Adam officially started long-distance. The result was 2.5 years of living 1400 miles apart. They visited each other a total of 17 times and had roughly 85 long-distance date nights on Zoom. Long-distance was not always easy, but they managed to make the best of it, and never ran out of things to talk about.

For one of their final trips, Adam told Macy they were going to College Station. Unbeknownst to her, they were actually going to Colorado. Here, on their surprise trip to Colorado, Adam proposed to Macy on a mountaintop at sunrise. It was perfect. :)
