Zayne and Erin had a class over Zoom together during their first semester of college. Running into each other over a year later, Zayne remembered Erin as the girl who gave a presentation with a husky screaming in the background, and Erin remembered Zayne as the guy who gave a tour of his grandma's house to the entire class. Before starting their third year of college, Zayne took Erin to Johnson Reservoir near Laramie, Wyoming. It was here that Erin and Zayne realized they both had an aquatic background and a love for the water. During this trip, Erin pretended to be a water bender and by surprise, Zayne followed. This was the moment Erin and Zayne knew they found their person.
