Chapter One
How We Met
Arjay and Claire met in an econ class at UW–Madison. They studied together a few times before they ever started dating, which gave them time to get to know each other without forcing the timing.
Chapter Two
Falling in Love
After a summer apart, they started dating and spent more and more time together, going to class, exploring Madison, and going fishing. They then made it through a year of long distance while Claire finished college, and eventually moved to Texas together and bought their first house.
Chapter Three
The Question
After a year of living together, Arjay popped the question back in Wisconsin. By then, it felt less like a surprise and more like the next clear step in a life they had already started building together.
