Once upon a time, a girl met a boy through mutual friends at a game night. They didn't speak much outside their initial introduction and though she found him funny and caught him making a few looks at her, nothing became from their initial interaction other than a new connection. Over a year later that girl decided to go on a group cruise for a business mastermind. And fate seemed to create a last second opening allowing the boy to go as well. They spent six wonderful days getting to know eachother and quickly realized that they had a lot of fun together, both shared the same odd type of humor, laughed at almost everything, saw the world in in a very similar way, had both overcome a rough upbringing, and both had a drive and passion to create a beautiful life that helps the world & others. By the end of the cruise they were unsure of what was to come - so they sadly hugged goodbye, and the two hoped it wasn’t the last time they’d see each other. Because they both knew the connection they felt was unlike anything they had ever felt before. And more than that though they didn't admit to to themselves - they both knew deep down that they had found the person they had been dreaming about. Though the timing was off & they knew they needed to wait... the connection they felt on the cruise would never really leave their hearts or minds. So nearly three months later the stars seemed to align and the boy decided it was finally time to go on a date. Their first official date was at Rodizio grill where the they realized that their connection was in fact as real and deep as they thought it was all along. And after eating, walking around the mall, and killing zombies in virtual reality where the boy was able to save her life from the zombies; they became inseparable! This began the love story of Michale & Oakley. A love story that would have more highs than lows, push them to become better, be filled with happiness, growth, and a life of choosing each other.
