Noah and Luke (aka Nuke) met on June 1, 2007, when Noah arrived as an intern at WOAK. Luke quickly became enamored with the handsome aspiring director.
As the summer progressed, Luke's feelings grew while Noah fought hard to deny his attraction. But theirs was a love that couldn't be denied.
Their story has gained international attention and their first kiss was featured on Entertainment Tonight in August. The Youtube video of their first kiss has more than a million hits.
