While they both have their own stories of minor previous encounters, Zoey and Jake officially crossed paths on what felt like a typical college night. Zoey and her friend Clara were on their way to a small birthday party down the hall when they passed Jake’s open dorm room door and saw him working on a project. On a whim, they invited him to join. His response was a casual, “sounds fun, maybe I’ll stop by.” But - later that night, he really did stop by.

Between jokes, laughter and a few drinks, the night somehow ended with Zoey giving Jake a full manicure at that birthday party. (Classic move for both of them.) Neither of them knew it at the time, but those moments lit a spark that kept drawing them back to each other. And while it took a couple of months for their story to really begin, once it did, they lit a bright fire thats been burning ever since.
