It was a warm sunny day at the Boundary pool at East Carolina University. Final exams were done and the vibes were immaculate. Josh was with the boys sipping (chugging) a Busch Ice by the edge of the pool. Genie had seen Josh at the pool many times before and referred to him as “Pool Boy”. After a few White Claws, her friend (sick of hearing her talk about him, but not talk to him) came over and introduced Genie. They hit it off immediately. Even though Josh is an Eagles fan and Genie is a Cowboys fan, they somehow liked each other. After a trip to OBX and getting his family approval, Josh finally asked Genie to be his girlfriend. They spent the summer visiting each other back and forth between Cary and Wilmington and quickly fell in love. 5 years later, Josh proposed to Genie on the beach at sunset in Grand Cayman on June 15th, 2024. Genie said yes
