LONDON, April 9 (UPI) -- David Brown just returned to London from a honeymoon with the girl of his dreams, although technically it was her phone number he dreamed five years ago.

Brown told the Daily Mail that a phone number was stuck in his head after a night out with friends and he decided to send a text message.

The owner of the number, Michelle Kitson, was 17 at the time and in the car with her parents when the message arrived.

"Did I meet you last night?" it said.

"Who are you and where are you from?" she replied.

The two soon figured out they didn't know each other, but they kept text messaging and finally decided to meet.

Brown said he arrived at their meeting spot early, called her number and saw a young woman answer her mobile phone.

"It was love at first sight for me -- I loved everything about her," Brown told the Daily Mail.

Kitson said the first text message was "spooky," but after that she was hooked.

"My mum and dad kept saying, 'But he could be an axe murderer', but I knew there was something special about it," she told the newspaper.
