He wanted to be better and he also wanted a change so that was one of the reasons why he agreed to go on a two week trip from Los Angeles to San Francisco with sixteen other kids he never met, a trip planned by his therapist. He just didn't expect to find love in the midst of that. Elijah Tripley was depressed. It was obvious and apparent but regardless, he didn't want to stay like that so that's why he decided to do something out of his comfort zone and intended to go on a trip filled with people he didn't know and wouldn't necessarily want to know. But Josiah came into his life and uprooted that plan instantly, even if they did get on the wrong foot in the beginning. - this is ILL LOVERS and I hope you all enjoy <3 - (𝑴𝑰𝑳𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑶𝑵𝑬𝑺) #10 𝒊𝒏 𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 #197 𝒊𝒏 𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒆𝒓 #84 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒚

Elite Connections started off as a business proposal for Arya's senior project. She had been nicknamed the matchmaking friend throughout high school and decided to plan out an idea company, not knowing that this proposal would carry her through college and become the most exclusive matchmaking service in the world. What made Elite Connections stand out compared to the other services is that it was fully anonymous, there was an income minimum for both men and women, and the match was all based on compatibility tests. Arya believed that blind love did exist which is why none of her clients are allowed to see each other until they're walking down the aisle at their wedding. After receiving the stamp of approval from tech mogul, James Christensen, business had skyrocketed to the point of having a year long waitlist for potential clients. With a one hundred percent success rate it was easy for Arya to raise her service package minimum to fifty grand - the most exclusive package being priced at half a million dollars. Everything in Arya's life was going perfect. That is until James Christensen's grandson, Ethan, enters Elite Connections to be matched.
