Our Meet Cute
Syd and CJ became friends through their mutual friend, Joe Blue. CJ and Joe were bonding over being heart broken and always hanging out. Syd was always hanging with Joe, and thus CJ. Syd and CJ got the chance to solidify their relationship when Syd wanted to skip her 21st birthday, but CJ refused to let that happen. CJ insisted on taking her out to celebrate. Of course they were “just friends” until the encouragement (teasing) of Vince Catania. Eventually Syd and CJ admitted that they liked one another! In 2016, Syd and CJ celebrated their official first date at Palos Lanes (Syd won).
