The rest of Dakota's Story.

Dakota's Pov...

First date: Age 16

I am the first of the triplets to be going on a date. Well, we did just have our sixteenth birthday three days ago, but I'm still first.

I met this girl last summer at the beach and we've just been texting each other everyday since. She lives in the next city over from ours, so she lives close by, but we are both really busy so we rarely see each other in person.

So today was the only free day that we both have, so I'm taking her on a little ice cream date. We might even walk through the woods afterwards.

I don't have my license yet, so luckily for me the ice cream parlor is a five minute walk from my house, plus she's driving herself there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stand outside waiting for her to show up, while Calum and Bohdi are inside eating their ice cream. Dad said that they had to come with me on my date since he doesn't trust the three of us home alone anymore.

It's not like we burnt the house down or were even close to doing so. All we did was throw a tiny party with just our three friends and other people somehow heard and showed up then trashed the place...

It was not our fault! We planned to just watch movies and have a few Nerf gun wars. Some kid heard us talking about it at school, then told all of his friends and they told theirs and they all showed up.

They didn't even knock...They just opened the door and started partying. We kept trying to tell people to leave but they ignored us. It was just a crazy night.

"Hey Dakota!" She yelled as she walked up to me. "Hey Kazzy." I smiled then hugged her when she got close enough to me.

When we pulled away from the hug, I opened the door for her, then we both walked into the little ice cream place and walked over to the counter.

We ordered our ice creams and I paid, then we found a table that was far away from my brothers. Don't need them ruining my first date.

Luckily for me, they were both too busy talking about soccer probably to even notice Kazzy and I. While they were busy doing whatever, Kazzy and I just talked and got to know each other even more.

We talked about our families, pets, childhood memories and other things that make us happy. For example I love playing soccer and having Nerf gun wars with my brothers. Justine plays with us too sometimes, but she always wins. I mean Bohdi is the same, but we have to include him or we'll get in trouble.

We ended up just ending our date there, because it started to rain and her parents wanted her to be home by 6 and it was 5:30.

We said our goodbyes, then she left. Since we have to walk home, Calum, Bohdi and I just stayed inside and waited for the rain to either stop or just calm down to the point where we wouldn't get soaked.

Graduation: Age 18

Don't tell my parents, but I was really close to not graduating. I had one credit that I need for English that I somehow didn't get.

Good thing my teacher was nice enough to let me do extra work to get the credit. She even helped me with some of my work after school.

"Dakota Doe." The principal called my name as I walked onto the stage and over to her. She gave me my diploma and shook my hand, took a picture, then I got off the stage and sat down in my assigned seat.

After everyone was called and given their diplomas, they played a slide show of pictures of all of the students. Each slide was dedicated to each student. It had a few pictures of them during school and one baby picture.

My slide was of course shared with Calum and Bohdi, just like the other sets of twins in our school. The baby picture of the three of us was kind of fake though.

I mean it was a picture of all three of us, but it was originally a photo of my crawling and some guy edited Calum and Bohdi into the photo as well.

Most of our pictures are like that. Us kids don't really like to think about the fact that we were all adopted, and that we aren't all biologically related, so mom and dad had all of our photos photoshopped to add our other siblings into the pictures.

Life after:

After high school, I became a professional soccer player. Since I became a professional soccer player right after I graduated high school, I never went to college.

At the age of 26, I got married to Kazzy. We decided that since my job always had me moving around, that we wouldn't have any kids.

So it's just the two of us and our dog Jada, living life to the fullest.
