It was fate. Both from the Midwest, Elisa and Megan's individual life paths took them to Long Island for PT school. Even weirder, they ended up as roommates in a little cottage there (completely by chance!). Luckily, Megan moved in during Elisa's final year there, and it was an instant connection for both of them. Friendship quickly turned to love and that was that. To this day they still haven't been able to get away from New York (the state that brought them together). Who knows...maybe sometime soon they'll get back to their midwest roots!
