Jackie Cerami and Mike Chaney met for drinks in the beautiful Windy Park neighborhood of Washington DC. “I was really late,” says Jackie. “It’s kind of a running joke because everywhere we go he’s 15 minutes late, and I’m always the one on time. So it was kind of funny, our first date it was the opposite of how it normally is now.” Mike let Jackie’s tardiness slide that evening, and the couple ended up sparking what would be a two-and-half-year relationship.

Working in close proximity, where they talked, joked, and learned more about one another, the two became close over time. Once coworkers brought Jason's attraction to Crystal's attention, she played coy at first. "It took his persistence for me to really just kind of get it, to see that he wanted to be with me," says Crystal.
