Adventure 2
DH: Jamie Mason Alban
DW: Susanna Piper "Sunny" [Rossi] Alban
Jamie and Sunny didn't meet until freshman year of high school. Jamie and his family moved to the house across the street from Rossis, and Sunny immediately took a dislike to Jamie. She took offense at his staring at her (which she dubbed leering) and resented how he charmed everyone in school without even doing anything. Jamie, on the other hand, was fascinated with Sunny--she was beautiful, brilliant, and funny--but her prickly attitude frustrated him. She thought he was concieted, vain, and sleazy and he thought she was arrogant, acerbic, and touchy. Neither were really any of these things, but the two held on to these beliefs with an almost religious fervor. They butted heads so often that teachers would dread having them in classes together. The situation was only worsened, of course, by the fact they couldn't stand that they both knew that they were attracted to one another. Gradually they couldn't help getting to know one another, and though neither would admit it, both began to see that the other was really a kind, fun, and down-to-earth person (to everyone except each other, that is). By senior year, however, both realized they didn't even remember why it was they disliked one another, and they reconciled much to their friends' relief. As soon as they put it aside, what their friends had bet one another would happen did--they fell in love and would never admit it. Around the middle of May Jamie got up the courage to finally do what he had wanted to do for years--ask Sunny to prom. She accepted, though she had planned to go with a male friend of hers who hadn't been able to find a date (she helped him by setting him up with a girl a year below him everyone knew liked him). Both considered that night to be the start of their realtionship, when they realized how madly in love they were. They had both already been accepted and enrolled into the same college, and their relationship developed into something strong, passionate, and lasting. On their four-year anniversary, not long after graduation, when both had gone to spend a few weeks at home, Jamie proposed to her at their favorite spot in the neighborhood (a vacant lot with a beautiful oak tree in it). The two were married a year later, and are eager and ready to start their lives together.
Note: I know Susanna and Piper aren't the stereotypical hippie names, but they were names that felt both hippie and yuppie to me. To give her more of a hippe name I gave her the nickname Sunny.
