We met during our Freshman year of high school. We sat next to each other in Honors Biology and I thought he was super cute. Turns out he was thinking the same thing! Our good friend Skyler was texting me one day and Nick was over at his house hanging out. I was being nice and talking to Skyler but really wanted to talk to Nick instead. I got his phone number from Skyler and Nick and I started texting. We ended up going on a date to the movies and talking constantly. The rest is history.
Nick and I were on a family vacation in Gulf Shores. Before I went my sister and my friend Meghan asked me if I thought he would propose while we were on vacation. I honestly was not thinking he would because he wanted to go on a personal trip together the next Summer. The night of the proposal Nick really wanted to go for a walk on the beach at night and I was not feeling up for it. He told me that we hadn't been crab hunting since we had gotten there and he was looking forward to it. I decided he was right and we should go anyways. We were walking along the beach under the moonlight, finding huge crabs in the sand, and he said to me.."Hey I have a question for you?" His voice was very shaky and it made me nervous. Then he knelt on his knee and asked if I would marry him and be with him forever. I could not believe it. I was in shock and shook my head fast yes and hugged him. We walked back to the beach house and told our family. I even woke up my sister and she was so excited. It was a great night. Very personal to us and I loved the intimate moment with him.
