"I would have thought that Devoin would be around and I would have had some time for myself to do things and go to school, go to work. But it turned out completely opposite," the 19-year-old said. "I'm so lucky to have you and Brittany around because without you guys I don't know what I would do."

"I don't want to pressure you guys or make it seem like I need your help," the Orlando, Fla., native added. "I feel like I'm a burden on you guys."
