00:00I was like, this guy is kind of cute, like I'm going to try and flirt with him.
00:02He was so embarrassed.
00:03Cooper has said in interviews that it was love at first sight.
00:07Was it the same feeling for you?
00:08It was like one of those things where like the connection was so deep.
00:10I think I had like an insecurity about that.
00:13Like, okay, this can't be like a real thing.
00:15You met Cooper in high school.
00:17Take us back to that first day when you met him and what that first impression was like.
00:21We met at a track meet.
00:22My school was hosting it.
00:23And so Cooper had just joined track.
00:25I didn't realize this.
00:26There were like junior Olympians running like alongside him.
00:29And so he got eighth place, which was like the last place.
00:33And so I was like, okay, like this guy is kind of cute.
00:36Like I'm going to try and flirt with him a little bit because I'm handing these ribbons out.
00:39I didn't hand him his because I was like, oh, he's going to come up and like ask for it.
00:44And he was so embarrassed because he was like, I don't deserve a ribbon.
00:48Like went over there and just like handed it to him.
00:50I feel like we had like just an immediate spark.
