meet KT, who was in medical school there, for the first time. At the airport, the two shared a passionate kiss before sightseeing around Washington landmarks like the Space Needle and Pike Place Market. That first trip was the start of six years of a long-distance relationship, marked by daily conversations and frequent flights. They finally got to move in together when KT got his residency in Vegas, and KL moved there not long after. Once they were living together, both of them knew that they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.<\/p>\n<p><a
