We met freshman year of nursing school, bonding over flashcards, caffeine, and way too much chemistry homework. Just friends at first—until sophomore year, when Ty casually invited Kennedy to a “secret” beach he’d found surfing. Two random chairs on the sand turned into hours of talking, and by the 4th of July, he officially asked her to be his girlfriend—fireworks included. A year and a half later, he proposed on New Year’s—more fireworks. Safe to say, sparks have been flying ever since.
