Our story begins in High School. We both attended Homestead and shared classes together. Although we did not socialize much during our high school years, we were familiar with each other. In fact, our junior year we had been lab partners in chemistry. After graduation we attended different colleges until Chase transferred to IPFW and we reconnected through mutual friends. We grew closer together spending time listening to our favorite albums of music in the car having long talks about life under the stars. Our friends recognized first that we clearly had something between us and after many jokes and sly comments we also admitted there was clearly chemistry and attraction. We now share a home with our three beloved cats and look forward to writing the next chapters of our life together.
