I had a HUGE crush on Sam in 7th grade after seeing him playing basketball in my middle school. He didn’t know who I was.. I would send anonymous messages asking if he liked me on ask fm trying to get his attention. We started talking in 8th grade, but we never really saw each other in person. I remember the moment I saw him in highschool and we locked eyes as we were passing each other in the hallway. It was honestly like a movie the way that he perused me after.

There are so many memories to choose from as we truly grew up together, however my favorite memory of us id say is our first date freshmen year. We went to the movies with another couple and it was like a dream come true for me. I was in love with him since 7th grade and finally being able to be close to him was an indescribable feeling.

We have been saving up to get married and have our dream wedding that showcases our love over the years, as we’re not that affectionate or open about our relationship with friends/ family. The $20,000 would help us do that and finally unite us as one. We also want to start a business that helps the community we live in by making a long lasting positive impact on that place that connected us.
