My alarm goes off at 6am. Hitting the power button I spring out of bed. Today is the first day of sophomore year, I would be starting at Mckinley High in Lima, Ohio. Leaving all my friends in Dayton was hard, but my dads decided it was best for the family. They have been arguing for months, the stress of daddy's job and how is co-worker, Tony, always found a way to call him or text, was putting a strain on their marriage. So daddy quit his job and took a job with a smaller firm in Lima. We moved in about two months ago. It was summer and since I didn't know anyone I spent all my time in my room writing music and practicing my singing and dancing.

Ever since I could remember I've been singing, dad has always loved the arts and he got me into dance the moment I could walk. The moment I learned to talk he had me in voice lessons. From every singing competition to every dance competition he has been there in the front row cheering me on. Singing became my dream. I fell in love with broadway and Barbra Streisand. After high school I would be going to New York and pursuing my passion. My dads were one hundred percent supportive of my dreams and they did everything they could to encourage me. My freshman year at Dunbar I joined their glee club, Star Power. Everyone was so talented and amazing, it was wonderful to be around all those people who had the same love as me. When my dads told me we were moving I was devastated. I had made so many great friends, we had just won the national show choir competition, and we had plans to spend the summer together. While it made me sad to leave, I was happy that my dads were getting along.

After a quick workout and shower, I put on my new pair of jean and a white t shirt and headed downstairs for breakfast. A new part of our routine was eating meals as a family. This past summer every breakfast and dinner was at the dining room table. In the past family dinners were rare and usually on special occasions. Daddy was always busy at the office and dad made himself bust around the house, I think he ever started writing again. Dad used to be an author, but when I was born he turned into a stay at home dad, he hasn't written since. I've always felt a little guilty, his book are amazing, he's really talented, he shouldn't give that up. I sit down at the table after giving them both a kiss on the cheek.

"Good morning dad, daddy. How did y'all sleep?"

Daddy answered.

"We slept pretty great last night, right Leroy?"

"Yes we did, best night sleep ever. How about you sweetie?"

I had a feeling they were talking about something I cared to know nothing about.

"I slept wonderfully, thanks for asking. Which one of you will be carrying me to school today?"

As much as I loved my dads, I couldn't wait to turn sixteen in a couple months. They have already brought me a blue, 2016, Hyundai Elantra. It was perfect, my daddy has taken me out in it a couple times to get used to driving it. I loved it, and I loved them.

"Well I have to be at the office the same time you have to be at school, and dad has a meeting with a new publisher!"

Daddy sounded really excited for dad, it made my heart happy.

"That's great dad! I'm so glad you are writing again. You have an amazing gift."

"Thank you sweetheart. I'm really excited. I just hate I can't take you for your first day at new school."

"It's ok dad, I can take the bus today."

Both of my dads shared a look. They tend to be a tad bit overprotective at times. Dad turned back towards me.

"Actually we have a different plan. We have a surprise for you."

Just then I heard the front door open and close. I could hear footsteps walking towards the dining room. Heels. Who could that be?

"Hi baby, did you miss me?"

"Mom!"

I shot up and ran to give her a hug.

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at work?"

"Well, these past couple months have been lonely and I've missed you, Hiram, and Leroy. I was offered the director position at Lima theater and said why not, so here I am."

"You live here now!"

This was this best news I've heard all day, except for dad getting into writing again. I had missed my mom so much. My mom got pregnant with me when she was 20. Her boyfriend ditched her and she had no one else, so she decided t0 give me up for adoption. That's how she met my dads. After many interviews with them, she decided they were the best people to raise me. During the pregnancy my dad's and my mom grew close. They became the family she never had. It was decided that after I was born, she could be in my life however much she wanted to be. I lived with my dad's, but every other weekend I stayed with her. I loved that I got to have her in my life, I couldn't imagine life any other way, I had three parents who loved me deeply and supported me no matter what.

"Yes baby, I got a two bedroom apartment about five minutes away. Is that okay?"

"It's more than ok, does that mean I can stay with you on weekends again?"

"Of course sweetheart, you know you can stay whenever you'd like."

I lunged at her again, squeezing and not letting go. I then gave both of my dads big hugs and kisses. I may not know anyone here yet, but I had my family, and I was determined to make this year my best yet. We finished breakfast, and all headed out. I said goodbye to dad and daddy and hopped in the car with my mom.

"Have a great first day Rachel. Call me and tell me all about it tonight. I love you, and I am so happy to get to be here with you."

"Thanks mom. I love you too. Thank you for moving here, I missed you."

I gave her a hug and got out of the car. This was it. I was ready. I took a deep breath and walked through the front doors of Mckinley High.
