Amanda was working the ground ambulance and stumbled across some mechanical issues in the town Jennifer worked as a local police officer. Jennifer came to the aid of Amanda when hearing the radio transmission of the broken down unit on the side of the road. According to Jennifer, Amanda paid no attention to her at the scene, but Amanda took notice of Jennifer's bright blue eyes and tried to be less obvious while all the while she was enchanted. A year passed and the next summer the two met again at a mutual friends gathering for the Fourth of July 2012. Amanda and Jennifer spoke little that night but the following day contact was made through social media and the sparks from the fireworks the night before ignited a companionship that still to this day has yet to burn out.
