Shelby was supposed to stay at her parent's house after coming back from France. Shelby's mom planned to drive her back to NC from VA the next day because Shelby and Caleb had a flight for Massachusetts on July 18th. However- Shelby's whole family tested positive for COVID two hours before Shelby was supposed to arrive at their house. It was 10 PM when Shelby called Caleb. Caleb drove to Norfolk and picked her up at 12:30 AM. Caleb then drove both of them back-arriving at 4:00 AM. The /most/ romantic gesture.

"You know, sometimes I wonder…Well… if you and I had just, well, met…
I would have asked for your number, and I wouldn’t have been able to wait twenty-four hours before calling you and saying, “Hey, how about… oh, how about some coffee or, you know, drinks or dinner or a movie… for as long as we both shall live?”
