Hannah & Davis met each other when he was an instructor at West Coast EMT Training and she was his student. One evening, Davis showed up to class in the worst of moods and responded curtly when Hannah asked a question before the scheduled exam. Later, as Hannah was turning in her exam, Davis sincerely apologized for his less-than-friendly response and explained that he had been having a bad day. She expressed that no offense was taken and surprised him by taking the time to ask about his day. After that, their conversations continued and blossomed into a friendship in which the two began to look forward to Wednesday evening classes, knowing that they'd be seeing each other again.

Somewhere between January and March of 2017, Davis asked Hannah if he could take her out on an official date once she graduated the course (although he didn't wait that long to ask if he could kiss her)! Hannah graduated EMT school on March 17th, and the two went on their first date the very next day. They spent the whole day together riding bikes and talking on the beach, and ended the night with Beauty and the Beast at a drive-in theater. Little did they know it then but that was the start of a magical journey together.
