After meeting, Susie and Will became great friends. Their friend groups overlapped, so they often found themselves hanging out together. Susie used to study at Starbucks between classes, Will caught on and started showing up every week, sometimes walking halfway across campus just to see her. Little did Susie know, Will was hoping to be more than friends. Little did Will know, Susie really was just trying to study! Over time, their friendship grew stronger, and they even went on a few “dates,” unbeknownst to Susie. During the 2021 school year, Susie started to realize she might like Will as more than just a friend. Her mom knew something was different when Susie’s first call after finding out she was moving to Dallas for a summer internship was to Will.
