Let’s fast forward to Isaac and me at age six. That is when we started school.  At home our mom helped us learn what kindergarteners did, so we were able to skip that class. When we started school the teachers wanted us in different classes, however, as Isaac and I are really close it is hard to separate us for a long period of time.  So they soon found out that we had to be in the same class. Isaac was a protective brother, and no one was allowed to hurt me at all.  However, after several weeks in school we found out that there were some kids in our class that we liked to hang out with. The first set of kids they we like and we became fast friends with was Arianna and Caden Jones. They were the same age as us, and they were twins as well. However, they were not identical. All four of us were always together.

After three months of us staying together at school and doing everything together, are parents finally let us have sleep overs. Their parents were cool; we rotated houses every weekend, up until we were in sixth grade. Caden is Isaac’s best friend and Arianna is my best friend. Sometimes we would have a girl’s night at my house and the boys would go to her house.  One thing about us though is that we were all rich, but we didn’t show it all the time.  Also all four of us made sure we all stayed on the honor roll list every term at school and we did. Even though all four of us were twins, only Isaac and I were close, and he watched over me like a hawk.  However, once we hit the sixth graded they made sure none of the boys bothered us. Arianna and I both found it hard to find a boyfriend, because of our brothers. However, we didn’t mind it at all at that time.

In sixth grade we made another friend. This time it was a boy, his name is Steven Barstow. He was the same age as us (12). He of course became a body guard as well, for Arianna and me. We didn’t mind it too much at this time as we tried to study and keep high grades. All five of us started staying at each other’s homes every weekend. Our parents were all friends as well; also it didn’t matter as we all lived in the same neighborhood. So even if we weren’t staying the night with each other and if you are thinking about us girls staying with the guys yes we did. Each of our homes was right by each other. Another thing I forgot to mention is that all five of us had the same birthday.

Time started flying bye, before I knew it we were all in ninth grade, which is when things started heating up. In ninth grade Arianna and I meet two new girlfriends. Their names are Elizabeth Tate and Nevaeh Johnson. They had both moved to California at the start of the year. However, it wasn’t until second term that we started hanging out with them. Once we started hanging out with them, is when the boys decided that they were old enough to date, it was also at this time that the whole group decided to date within the group. I on the other hand was not allowed to date. My brother thought I was too young, and he didn’t want to add another person to his friends. All of us were friends for a reason we didn’t like to many people around us. So, Isaac started dating Nevaeh, Steven dated Ariana, and Caden dated Elizabeth. They were all cute couples. I didn’t care about dating right then either because I found out that most of the guys my age were too immature, and the ones in my group were too much like brothers to me.

For our 15th birthday our parents decided to build us a house behind all of theirs, that way we could all live together. However, we were told that we had to maintain all our grades; help with the up keep at the house. We didn’t care, about that and we did. It was a lovely home. All of our parents spoiled us.  Nevaeh and Elizabeth ended up moving on to our street as well, during the second semester of 9th grade, and so they lived in the house with us. Our parents all knew that most everyone was dating so they only had the house with four bedrooms, and five baths. It wasn’t that big, and it fit in the back yard of three homes. Of course all of the mansions had big yards so it didn’t matter. That year was the last year that everything was normal.

All seven of us finished that school year, being on honor roll. We never got into trouble, and we asked our parents if on out 16th birthday we could all go on a trip to Vegas. They told us that we had to help pay for the trip, and that if we all did well in school then after our tenth grade we could go for the summer. As we would be turning 16 three months before school let out. All of us agreed, we all even agreed to get summer jobs to help get the money to go.  That night when we went home we created a plan that would make our parents proud of us, and so we wouldn’t have to go back to school when after we got home from Vegas.
