And I was dating another guy at the time. I specifically remember [Allen] reaching out to me a whole year later and just randomly texting me, saying, ‘I messed up.’ And I’m like, ‘Dude, you haven’t talked to me in a year.’ But at the same time, I liked it.”

Williams said that the night after he texted her, her parents were hosting a graduation party for her brother and the Allen family was invited. “He showed up to the party, and when he showed up he’s like, ‘I had been texting you for a month and you’ve not responded,'” she recalled. “And I think I was blocked on his phone or something. He shows up at the party and my poor boyfriend at the time is there, he didn’t stand a chance. The second Josh walked in, I was like, ‘yeah, it’s over for this guy.’”
