"Growing apart doesn't change the fact that for a long time we grew side by side;

our roots will always be tangled.

I'm glad for that."

- Allie Condie

S Y N O P S I S

On the day Adam and his family moved into the house next to Dot's, the two became best friends.

As they grew older, they had a unique bond that sometimes even they didn't understand. But it was there.

May it be fate, destiny, or love, Adam and Dot were inseparable, whether they wanted to be or not.

For the rest of their lives.

(Or, a sort-of romance told over the course of decades through robots, morse code, a runaway dog and unfortunate incidents)

N O T E S

This novelette's point of views will alternate between Adam and Dakota, starting with Dakota. It will be from when Dakota is four to when they are in their twenties. However, I won't have a chapter for every year.

Note that the chapter lengths will be inconsistent. Each chapter can literally range from 400 words to 5000 words. Seriously. 

There is no cast in this story because that'd mean i'd have to have a new cast for each chapter since they're at different ages.

And finally, like my other story How To Get The Girl, I had written this story before under the name Tea Parties. However, unlike the former, which I reformed almost completely, I only made a few minor changes to this story, and I'd like to think my writing's improved over the last two years. edit: i changed a crap ton oh my god 

Also, please comment about what you liked or didn't like. I'm very open to constructive criticism.

the story might be triggering to some, it includes mental illness, mentions of war and mentions of self harm.
