One boy, One girl. . .

Five years ago a boy and a girl went out on a date. They had never met each other-- just talked on the phone once to set up the date. She picked him up at his apartment to find two eager roommates. He stepped out and her heart leaped--what a hottie! They went to dinner at the Training Table and talked the whole way there--not an awkward moment, much to their surprise. At dinner he asked, "Do you dance? You have the body of a dancer." Nice pick up line. She felt flattered. After dinner, they went to play laser tag. They played for another date and ice cream. He later claimed that he lost on purpose. She knows the truth. Sparks vs Hound dog--Sparks killed him! She took him home and said good bye at the door step. He invited her in for a movie. She declined, having to get up early the next morning and started to walk away. He ran to the stairwell and asked her again to come in. She declined, even though her heart was racing.

Five years later, they have two beautiful children, two degrees, a mortgage, and each other. I love you Trent. Thanks for taking a chance on the unknown!
