Mario soon came across Romeo when playing on a little league basketball team that his half brother Romeo attended as well.

Although later that night, Mario woken up to the sounds of his mother crying in her room and he knew it was true.

Evelyn Giordana grew up in Washington, DC, along with her brother Kellan. Their parents hoped that either of their children would follow in their footsteps. However, that didn't turn out the way they had planned. Eve eventually became an EMT and stayed at the job for several years. An unfortunate accident led to an early medical retirement, which broke Eve's heart. The girl loved her job and everything that came with it. After losing the job of her dreams, she began having quite the social media presence, which led to her meeting a gentleman who wanted nothing but companionship. Now a sugar baby, Evelyn lives the life she had only dreamed about. While it might seem like she's reckless and doesn't care, she volunteers for a crisis hotline to assist people with any issues they might have. The helping nature she had always possessed would never go away, so she puts it to use.

Matteo Giordana was born and raised in Washington, DC. His mother was a teacher, and his father was a judge in DC, something he could never see himself doing either of. Since he was nine, he wanted to become a firefighter so he could help people, and neither of his parents wanted him to do that because it was too dangerous to them. Matteo had always tried his best to be the so-called ‘perfect son’ that they always wanted, but it was hard on him emotionally. Because of whom his father was, people always assumed that he has got whatever it was that he wanted, and it was far from the truth. His parents made him work hard for everything, never wanting him to come across as spoiled or even ungrateful. When he was sixteen, they stopped providing for him the way they had been for years, and he was forced to get a job if he wanted anything aside from his necessities. After graduation, he got accepted into Boston. His parents offered to help him pay if he went to study something that had nothing to do with becoming a first responder. At first, he took them up on it, but it didn’t take long for him to decided he didn’t want to be held back anymore. After a long talk with them and exploring a lot of his options, he decided to earn his bachelor’s degree in emergency medical services. Almost ten years later, he now lives back in DC and works for DC Fire and EMS as a firefighter and EMT.
