Girl is 16 and works as a cashier at a grocery store.
Boy is 15 and works as a bagger at that grocery store.
Girl goes to small private Christian school with Boy's mom and sister.
Boy goes to public school.
Girl thinks Boy is a cute little boy.
Boy thinks Girl is a smokin' hott chick.
Boy never bags for Girl because he is too young to work past 6 PM.
And also because Girl was always the cashier for the express lane which she hated because she had no bagger, no one to talk to, dealt with the smokers and the million varieties of cigarettes and people who had way more than 10 items.
Boy asks mom and dad to transfer to the Christian school.
Boy claims it was for Girl.
This is neither confirmed nor denied by Mama K or Smelly Sr.
Girl still doesn't believe Boy, but it makes the story better.
Boy transfers to Christian school August 2004, his Sophomore year.
Girl is a Junior.
Boy and Girl don't become friends until April 2005 on a school missions trip to Romania.
The Christian school took missions trips during winter and spring vacations.
Girl was supposed to go to the Ukraine with her friends, but was moved to the trip to Romania.
The team was divided into pairs and lived in various houses with members of the Romanian church.
Boy lived with the teacher.
Girl lived with her mom.
Everyone else was paired with friends.
Girl and Boy began friendship due to this common bond of getting the short stick to live with chaperones.
Yes, Boy actually thought Girl was smokin'.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Girl and Boy returned from trip and become inseparable.
The prom was a few weeks after the return.
They went with a group, but partially as couple.
Yup, makes no sense.
Boy and Girl took the most awkward prom picture.
Boy never had a girlfriend before.
Girl never had a boyfriend before.
For a short time 8 months, they were a little scared, took it slow and remained in denial that they were, in fact, dating and boyfriend and girlfriend.
Boy made it official with Girl in December of 2005 when he casually said, "So will you be my girlfriend?" while they were shopping at Target.
Girl said "yes".
Boy and Girl went to the prom with a group, but as a known couple in May 2006 .
They took a much less awkward picture.
After dating for 4 years,
transferring together to two colleges,
and a semester of a long distance relationship
in July 2009 Boy and Girl tied the knot.
