Andrew and Helaina met in their senior year astronomy class, where they sat across from each other the entire year. Andrew being the straight A student he was, only passed astronomy by copying off Helaina and ensuring Helaina would wake him up every time he fell asleep at each fieldtrip to the planetarium. Even though love was not in the air at this moment in time, it built the foundation of a beautiful friendship that would later lead them back to choosing each other for the rest of their lives.
