On Ashley's second day of her new job, she wandered into the main building as she went looking for cups and that is when she met Ben. Ashley asked him if he knew where they were and he said yes. She patiently waited as Ben proceeded to take fifteen minutes trying to find them. Little did Ashley know, he purposely took longer to spend more time with her. Once Ben found them and gave them to her, she went on her way. Later that night, Ashley asked her friend about him. She said his name was Ben, but she thought he had a girlfriend so Ashley forgot about it and went on with her senior year of high school. Ben, on the other hand, did not forget about her. Over the next six months, Ben watched and waited for a chance to make his move. On January 1, 2013, Ben finally worked up the courage to ask Ashley to have dinner with him. She said yes and the rest is, as they say, history.
