The two became best friends after sharing a car ride home during freshman year in college. But life had other plans as Poppy moved to New York City and Alex remained in their small hometown of Ohio.
Poppy and Alex did, however, have one thing in common – the annual week-long trip. But after an incident on their last trip, they broke off contact.
