Derek and Shannon both went to Kaukauna High School together but didn't cross paths until their junior year. Out of the two, Derek was interested first but was soon put into the friend zone. As their connection grew, Shannon realized this was going to be something more than just a friendship.

As he knew he was moving his way out of the friend zone, Derek decided to make it official while Shannon was forcing him to watch High School Musical.

Throughout their relationship, Shannon mentioned to Derek when the time comes, she did not want a public engagement and also wanted to have purchased a house of their own. Do you think Derek listened? While down visiting one of their favorite spots in Florida, Derek thought it would be the perfect time to catch Shannon completely off guard and ask her to spend the rest of their lives together. Without hesitation, she said yes.
