Dane and Laura met around 10 years ago, she was dating a friend of his, and he might of had a small crush. Through several years, and several partners, he kept in touch, checking in every now and then until they ended up living in the same small town, two miles away from each other and both finally single at the same time. He swept her off her feet, and they were blending their cat families within three months, and got engaged on a trip to Paris before their 1st anniversary.
