The first time I meet Bryce was in October of 2006 for a brief moment. My roommates were introducing us and I had the thought that he would make a great husband someday.... Whoa I fled the scene and let that thought go... I felt like a psycho.. Well as fate would have it in March of 07, One of my roommates and I decided to go skydiving in Moab for spring break.. Not a lot of people wanted to come, so she said she had a friend in Logan that would love to come (Bryce). It was a great spring break, hikes and skydiving.. It was perfect. Well the following Monday on my way to work I got a text from Bryce ( My roommate had called me from his phone) . I got all giddy and decided I wouldn't tell anyone.. It was all so weird. Well after a few weeks of texting. Bryce and I decided to meet up, while i was in Logan meeting with my advisor. Well a few days prior I was walking home form class when one of the boys next store asked if I had talked to laura (my roommate), I thought it was strange but headed home, I grabbed a letter to send off at the post office when laura stopped me and said she needed to talk to me... hmmm okay I told her I'd be back in a moment. On my way back to my apartment another roommate asked if I had talked to laura... okay this was just weird... I got home asked Laura what was up "jamie did you know Bryce got engaged last night"? (by then most of my roommates figured out we were texting, thanks to someone grabbing my phone and reading a text) I tried to pretend like it was no big deal, but couldn't help think I was texting him until 2am last night.... I went into my room, where my room roommate was a told her... I decided to send him the meanest test ever
it was "you stupid dirt bag you're engaged? you should be ashamed for texting some other female at 2am, . Not to mention you could have said something before you offered to meet up with me on Thursday for lunch." Well as i was about to hit the send button her sent me a text asking if I could keep a secret? well I said sure... and it was prank he had pulled... he was still in big trouble... On Thursday when we meet up, I asked him way he did and said that it wasn't funny.. As I left that say I gave him a hug.. I had to let him know i was interested.. Well the week before finals he invited me to go to ST. George with him and some friends.. after debating to go and the fact i didn't really know him. I ran into my best friend who said go what do you have to lose. I really wanted to go and she just gave me the push i needed to go.
So he picked me up the next day and what he forgot to mention was his other friends there were all coupled up.... The reason we were in st. George was for a cancer fundraiser. We walked the track a few times to show support and to help raise money.. That night we went to my uncles indoor racing place. It was a blast.. when we got back to the track field where we would be sleeping, Bryce went to the bathroom and I laid my stuff out away from the couples and the people .. I went to the bathroom and came back, Bryce moved all his stuff next to mine while I was gone.. I didn't really sleep that night, but when I woke up in my sleeping bag I was a lot closer to this boy then I should have been, our faces where almost touching.. He opened his eyes and I realized just how awkward this situation was. after a few minutes of us both opening and closing our eyes we got up.. On my way to the bathroom and to get food one of the girls asked me in the group what was going on between us and i said I didn't know. After a fun day of four wheeling and motorcycles we headed back to one of the girls place.. I took a shower and then went downstairs to where the boys were and we were deciding what movie to watch when Ij came down, it was her moms house. She said they were going to order pizza, her and Brett left and Bryce and I chose Anastasia. I left to go get my blanket and came back Brett and ij were on a couch and so I gladly set next to Bryce on the other one, when he said we might have to share that blanket..
Well somewhere in the middle of the movie we ended up grabbing hands and cuddling.... Then are you ready for the embarrassing part of the story?..... I turned my head and Bryce kissed me... Whoa stop for a second remember how we weren't the only ones in the room? I pulled away and mentioned it. He said " they are a sleep" I thought what the heck I am never going to see this other couple again so we made out... after Ij went upstairs to go to her bed and Brett went to guest room we stayed up most of the night talking. the next morning as I was loading my stuff in the car, Ij asked if Bryce and i were dating? I said I wasn't sure...
Well we were and he took me on our first date the following week.. I become friends with the other girls during our courtship..
oh ps I found out later Brett was not a Sleep and told IJ we made out.. who then told her best friend who was dating Bryce's best friend...... everyone knew..... I still blush thinking about it.
Haha! This story is so great, Jamie! I never knew any of this, Ash always just said you guys met skydiving. :)
