The year is 2014, Stephany has just begun the Navy's training for her career in electronics. The seats are assigned alphabetically, and just her luck, she is sitting next to an annoying man she does not get along with. Thankfully after a week of missing class he was removed due to having to leave for a family emergency. Luckily for young Stephany this time coincided with Derek finally being placed back in a class after almost dying from a blood clot and two major surgeries which had set him back more then a month. What does that mean for the story? Well guess who sits next to Serrano alphabetically. Rodgers does. Derek Rodgers to be exact. Luckily for him, he sat next to a hilarious (and beautiful) classmate who would eventually become his wife. And they lived happily ever after. The End.
