Emma was finishing up nursing school and looking forward to moving to Oregon after graduation. Sam was bartending and contemplating moving to Colorado with a friend. The stars aligned when they met when a mutual friend came in from out of town and held a get together. They hit it off right away and began dating causally. Emma was nervous about getting attached to anyone so soon before moving, but the spark was simply too strong. After a few months of falling head over heels for each other, they went out to celebrate Emma's graduation where "Drunk Emma" lost her filter and said "So I love you, and you should just move with me". Without missing a beat, Sam agreed. They moved to Oregon together that summer and the rest is history.
