Once upon a time, in the bustling kingdom of Fort Collins, nestled among grand halls of knowledge, there lived a young scholar named Bryan and a radiant maiden named Meghan. The two first crossed paths on a fateful day in the Court of Disease Prevention, where the wise professors spoke of healing and protection. It was in this very hall that their eyes met, and as if by a spell, their hearts recognized one another.

Bryan and Meghan quickly became the closest of companions, their laughter echoing through the corridors like a melody only they could hear. They found joy in the simplest of things—midnight quests for enchanted cereals and endless debates over the most trivial of topics. Their shared love for the bard Justin of Bieber sealed their fate, and soon, without even realizing it, Meghan had taken residence in Bryan’s castle, where he dwelled with three jovial knights.

But as with all great tales, trials tested their bond. In the summer of the year 2019, a storm swept through their hearts, separating them for a time. Yet, true love cannot be undone by mere misfortune, and before long, the fates wove them back together, stronger than ever before.

In the cold dawn of 2020, they welcomed a noble companion into their lives—a fluffy, four-legged guardian named Moose. As Bryan ventured back to his homeland, Meghan and Moose stood watch over their enchanted college, while Bryan made valiant weekend pilgrimages to see his beloved. When a great darkness fell upon the land in March of that year, forcing all to retreat into their homes, Bryan and Meghan defied the sorrow by holding steadfast to one another, proving that no force—not even a curse upon the world—could sever their enchanted bond.

With time, their journey led them to a home of their own, an abode where dreams were nurtured, laughter was plenty, and love reigned supreme. Meghan became a wise mentor of the realm’s young basketball warriors, while Bryan took to the fields as a master of football, guiding knights-in-training to victory. Through triumphs and tribulations, their love never wavered.

Then, in the year 2024, destiny called once more. Bryan, determined to make this year the most magical of all, prepared a grand surprise for Meghan. To celebrate their six years of love, he whisked her away to the sacred land where their story began—Fort Collins. Beneath the watchful eye of the great Horsetooth Reservoir, Bryan laid out a feast fit for royalty, filling the air with melodies of their favorite ballads. As they reminisced on their greatest adventures and spoke of their boundless love, a familiar tune—"This Is It"—filled the air.

Taking Meghan’s hands in his, Bryan gazed into her eyes and whispered, "I have something that will make this day even better." Then, as the golden sun bathed the land in its warm glow, he knelt upon one knee, holding out a shimmering ring that gleamed with the light of a thousand stars.

Meghan’s heart swelled with joy, and with tears of happiness glistening in her eyes, she gave him the only answer that could ever be—"Yes!"

The kingdom rejoiced, for the tale of Bryan and Meghan was not yet complete. In the coming spring, beneath blossoms of pink and white, surrounded by their dearest friends and kin, they would stand before the world and vow their love for all eternity. A grand celebration awaited, one filled with joy, laughter, and the promise of a future brimming with adventures yet to come.

And so, with hearts forever entwined, Bryan and Meghan embarked on the next chapter of their greatest adventure—one that would last a lifetime.

✨ And they lived happily ever after. ✨
