Kenny & Michaela met at the first co-ed dance for Serra and Notre Dame High School in the Bay Area. Shortly after, Kenny asked Michaela to winter formal and while she wasn't quick to answering the question, she eventually said yes (blue eye shadow and all).

Michaela then asked Kenny to her school's winter formal but instead of blue eye shadow this time, she took a whack at red lipstick. And hasn't tried it since.

Finally they were "boyfriend & girlfriend". They went on their first "official" date to the Giants Game and Michaela forced all of her friends to get tickets in the bleachers in case she was too nervous at any point. Turns out it wasn't much different than when they hung out as best friends.
