How They Met
If people were told that in a few years time [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] would be married, most would not believe it, but they would not be all that surprised. The first time [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] (22) and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] (24) met each other, was at a wedding, through mutual friends. [name_f]Maddie[/name_f]’s best friend, [name_f]Brittany[/name_f] Sparks, was getting married to her high school sweetheart. The girls have been friends since they were 10 years old. [name_f]Brittany[/name_f]’s husband-to-be is a college friend of [name_u]Jayden[/name_u]’s, [name_u]Christian[/name_u]. They never met each other before because [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] was always studying and would fly home to [name_u]Nova[/name_u] [name_f]Scotia[/name_f] for holidays and [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] was very focused on her career to hangout a lot with extended friend groups. They were both a part of the wedding party, being a bridesmaid and and groomsman - and they were partnered together as each other’s ‘date’. However, they clashed from the start. [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] was quite opinionated and stubborn, and while [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] was quiet, he is up for an argument. They hated being around each other and it was stressing the bride and groom out. So, for the benefit of their friends, they became forced friends and called a truce on their disagreements. They ended up spending a lot of time together and eventually their forced friendship turned into an actual friendship.
When Did They Begin Dating
After about two years of building up their friendship, [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] have noticed, individually, that their friendship has turned into flirting. They finally decided, after an argument, that they have more romantic feelings than friendly feelings for each other. They go for their first date, your stereotypical fancy restaurant and movie gig, but they realized that that felt forced. They decided to just be themselves and to do what they would normally do - with a few extra bonuses. Their friends were relieved that they finally quit dancing around each other and have finally gotten together.
Proposal
[name_f]Maddie[/name_f] and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] have always been ones to do whatever they wanted whenever they felt it was the right time for them - everyone else be damned. Some may say they moved in together, way too quickly, after only dating for about 6 months. However, others may say that they have been friends for almost three years, so it wasn’t really fast at all. Now, they have been dating for 2 years and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] has been really thinking about asking [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] to marry him. He has bought a ring and trying to plan out how he wants to go about his proposal. What he doesn’t know, is that [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] has been thinking about it too, not her proposing, but whether or not he will propose. Of course, it does not go the way he plans it. [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] keeps backing out when every holiday or birthday comes around, and he promises himself that [name_u]New[/name_u] Years [name_f]Eve[/name_f] will be the final ‘chance’. [name_f]Maddie[/name_f], however, has discovered the ring and is getting a little anxious/annoyed by the delay, thinking he’s not actually going to do it. So, one day, when they are debating, [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] blurts out “[name_m]Will[/name_m] you marry me?” and [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] retorts with “Of course! I thought you’d never ask,”.
Marriage, Honeymoon and After…
In true [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] and [name_u]Jayden[/name_u] fashion, they have a long extended engagement. Their engagement lasts five years, but they have decided not to have a big affair. They want their close family and friends there, but no one who they don’t really associate with. They want to enjoy their wedding with their family, not be stressed about making the rounds to greet people they will never see again. They have also decided that they will not have their wedding in either of their hometowns. They have decided to have their wedding at Niagara Falls, in front of the falls at night with all the lights. After their wedding, they decide to take their honeymoon in Venezuela, [name_u]South[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u]. Then, they decide to remain in Ottawa, [name_m]Ontario[/name_m] - not too far from [name_f]Maddie[/name_f]’s foster parents - but they move out of the city and into the suburbs, into a house they bought for their future family.
