Andy-Kelsey Relationship

> "*Andy: No matter what happens to me, I'm glad ran into you in the school hallway all those years ago. Cause that was the moment where I fell in love with you, and you've changed my life every single day since just being apart of it. We've had ups and downs, we have had our fair share of fights but the one constant has always been our love for each other. We lost ourselves for 5 years, not wanting to be together, even though we secretly wanted to be. I gave you the space you needed to figure everything out but you were always stuck in my head. But I guess it's a good thing we always find our way back to each other Right?*

> Kelsey: This falling in love stuff makes me crazy was the quote that solidified our destiny as we started getting serious in that moment. It made me realize that your first love will more often than not be your last love and I am so damn happy that was the case for me. You helped me through my depression, a sexual assault, losing my brother Hunter, my bipolar disorder and all of the other stuff that came with my crazy life. You were always there supporting me and can't believe that we are adding an addition to our family. Congratulations Daddy!*"*
