Josh and Teiyona met in January of 2022 briefly being introduced while at Passion Conference! Teiyona was very smitten with Josh and found him to be super super cute, she didn't think much of it though because she was unsure when she would see him again! About a month later, Teiyona was invited to a bible study that was held at the coffee shop she was working at, even though she was shy and awkward she agreed to go! When Teiyona got to the bible study, she saw Josh there and was just as taken by him! She didn't talk much the first bible study and was super awkward which lead Josh to believe she was a bit of a weirdo. Teiyona kept going back to bible study every Thursday after that and got more and more comfortable each week! She began to hangout with Josh, Peyton and Ana almost every day and would try to subtly flirt with Josh and wether he admits it or not, he would flirt with her as well. The two began texting and getting closer, they would talk and hangout daily whether it was in a group or just the two of them. Teiyona was convinced that her and Josh were going somewhere until the two had a bit of a falling out in May of 2022 (now referred to as the dark time lol). They didn't talk much after but occasionally would be hanging out in the group, while actively not talking! Eventually they rekindled their friendship around July 2022 but it wasn't quite the same. Around September 2022 the two really started texting and talking more and hanging out just he two! Teiyona told Ana that she was sure she had feelings for him again but wasn't sure how to approach the situation! Josh slowly got more and more flirty with Teiyona which had Teiyona convinced he liked her as well. In the beginning of October 2022 they both went on a work trip to Disney World, they rode in the same car up there and throughout that little weekend trip they grew even closer and were nearly inseparable. The drive home really sealed it when the two chatted the whole way and then Josh gave Teiyona the biggest hug when she dropped him off. As October continued, they got even flirtier, Teiyona noticed this immediately went to Ana, she then went and cornered Josh until he spilled the beans and admitted his feelings for Teiyona. Josh and Teiyona started to hangout every night just the two of them and their feeling escalated. They would hold hands and hug and Teiyona would go home with the biggest smile on her face and butterflies in her stomach! Flash forward to October 27th, 2022 Josh, Teiyona, Ana, Peyton and Jacob had spent the day at the Pumpkin Patch and were carving pumpkins. Teiyona's mom asked her to go get her sister from work and Josh offered to go with. They pulled into a spot at the square and Josh looked at Teiyona and said he needed to talk to her, he told her how much he liked her and how he couldn't wait any longer to ask for her to be his girlfriend. Teiyona screamed into her hands and then immediately said yes. They walked into Local and Josh looked at her and said "October 27th, thats the day to remember" and the rest was history <3
