Along with the KOSA bill that has many problems and it has passed the senate now needing the finally vote in the house, which both are majority red. Go here to learn more on why it needs to be stopped and how you can. This is another component that will harm our communities. Go to: stopkosa.com
With all of its harmful plans some of the plans are to take down/restrict internet sites that have LGBTQ+ communities that means communities like the fan-fiction communities/sites in the United States.
I am only giving resources to those inside and out of the US in case they banned sites that hold fan-fiction. Better safe than sorry.
Being that I live in the US the possibly of mine and many others Fanfiction has the possibly of being in danger. Therefore I'm giving you recourses. (I'm not leaving or stopping my writing, I'm here for the fight!)

You woke up groaning to the sound of your alarm. 6am on the dot. For as long as you could remember you’ve never been a morning person; but that quickly changed once you had Amelia — your daughter who, despite being a pain in your side sometimes and thinks she’s attached to your hip, is honestly one of the best things that’s ever happened to you.
Once you had her, you had to become a morning person much to your dismay. In the beginning it was hard as prior to having her you never got up before 9am as you worked afternoon shifts — there was simply no reason to get up at 6 or 7am. But once the two of you developed a routine it became easier; the two of you working as teammates.
But today, for some reason, it felt even harder for you to get up. You felt drained, your eyes were still heavy, all you wanted more than anything was to get back to sleep. Your alarm went off again and you tried your hardest not to throw your phone across the room. With another groan, you shut off your alarm and got out of bed slowly, the hardwood flooring of your apartment felt cold against your feet. As soon as your feet touched the wood there was a knock on the door. Another groan left your lips; Amelia jumped out of bed and started running down the hall.
“Don’t worry mommy I got the door!” She beamed, her little feet smacking against the wood.
“Mel, let mom get the door okay?” You said, rushing out your bedroom door.
“But what if it’s —”
“It’s not him Sweetheart. He doesn’t come over this early you know that.” You said, and her face dropped. “Don’t be sad Sweetie. I know you want to see him, I want to too. But we’re probably not going to see him until later when he’s done with work.”
“At the Sheriffs office!” Amelia said, happy with herself that she remembered.
“Yes, at the Sheriffs office.” You smiled, slightly praising her.
Another knock came at the door and there was a part of you that was getting a little mad at the persistentness. It was 6 in the morning — who could possibly be coming at this hour? “Special delivery!” You knew that voice from anywhere, and it a matter of seconds that annoyance you had melted away.
Amelia looked at you, hands on her hips. “Told you it was your boyfriend!” She said, sticking her tongue out at you. You stuck your tongue out at her back, and she couldn’t help but giggle. Once opening the door you didn’t even have a chance to greet your boyfriend before Amelia was running past you to get to him. “Beau!” She called, and without warning jumped into his arms.
Not fully prepared for her to do that, the bag of what you assumed to be food almost fell out of his hands as he wrapped his arms around her, making sure she didn’t fall out of his arms. “Hey Kiddo,” he said, his voice in a similar joyful tone as hers was in. “How we doin’ this mornin’?” He asked, his accent a little bit more prominent than usual.
Amelia looked at him, her arms around his neck. “Good now that you’re here!” She beamed — you couldn’t help but agree with her answer.
Beau looked at you and smiled, and you couldn’t help but look at the two of them; happy that he had taken an instant liking to Amelia (and vice versa). “How about you darlin’?”
“You know I’m always happy to see you.” You grinned.
“You better be. Because I come bearing gifts.” He stated holding up a white paper bag.
“If that gift is food you are more than welcome to come inside.” You teased. “Let me take that since you’re too busy with your favorite.” You said, gently tickling your daughter in her side as she wriggled.
“Mom! Stop!” She laughed.
“Okay, okay.” You said kissing her on the cheek. “And one for you,” you said as you gave him a quick peck.
“Gross!” Amelia said.
“So, what brings you here so early? You never come this early.” You said, taking a sip of your orange juice.
“I uh, I took the day off actually.” He said, and you couldn’t help but look at him with disbelief.
“You? You took the day off?” You asked. “You never do that.”
“Yeah well, first time for everything.” He said. “Jenny insisted.”
“Ah.” Was all you said before taking a giant bite out of your breakfast wrap.
“I like her. She’s always so nice to me. And her hair is really pretty.” Amelia chimed in, mouth full of waffles. “Mommy when are you going to hang out with her again?”
“Probably this weekend Sweetheart. But we have to see, you know how busy she can be.” You stated; Amelia’s face dropped. “But I’m sure as soon as I mention you she’ll try and rush over.” You winked, causing her to smile. “You know how much she adores you.”
“Oh she sure does.” Beau let out a small chuckle. “I was thinking, you two don’t have any plans today right? Well, besides school for this one.”
“Not that I can think of. Why? What did you have in mind?” You asked curious.
“I was thinking, if you two are up for it, we could find a nice empty field somewhere, take some chairs, make some food, make a fire, watch the night sky.” He said, his voice sounding a tad nervous. It almost sounded more nervous than it did when he initially asked you out on your first date a few months ago.
“So camping without the camping?” You clarified.
“Essentially yes.” He said. “Think of it as a…family date night.”
“Family date night?” You smiled, loving the sound of that.
“That sounds like fun!” Amelia almost yelled. The only reason it didn’t come out as a yell was because her mouth was still full of waffles.
“What she said.” You said pointing to Amelia.
“Okay mommy how do I look?” Your daughter asked as she did a small spin to showcase her outfit. Like usual, she decided that she wanted to wear something sparkly for the occasion as she believed wearing something with sparkles was the epitome of fashion — reasons why she somehow convinced you to wear something sparkly on your first date with Beau, thankfully he found it cute.
“As cute as always Sweetie.” You said. “How about me?” You too did a similar type of spin as her as you showcased your outfit. It wasn’t sparkling (much to your daughters dismay), but you thought it matched her outfit well.
“You look beautiful mommy!” She said, side hugging you.
“Thanks Bean.” You said kissing her on the top of the head. “Now, I need you to make me a promise tonight okay?” You began as you kneeled in front of her, taking her hands in yours.
“No promises but I can try.” She grinned — she was becoming more and more like you each day.
You let out a small laugh. “I appreciate the honesty.” You smiled. “But, it’s gonna be a little chilly tonight so I need you to keep the jacket on okay?”
“But won’t the fire keep us warm?” She asked.
“Yes, but, we still need to keep our jackets on. You know why? Because it’ll keep us even extra warm.” You smiled.
“Okay.” Amelia said, a little disappointed.
“Can we shake on it?” You asked, now holding out your hand for her to shake.
“It’s a promise.” The two of you said in unison as you shook hands.
The drive to the field went like a blur but it was filled with song after song of you and Amelia singing to the radio as Beau chimed in during random verses. And like Amelia fashion, she found it the funniest thing whenever Beau would chime in, as he wouldn’t be as serious about getting the lyrics right like you and her tried to do.
As soon as Beau parked, Amelia went straight to the door handle trying to open the door. “Open the door! Open the door!” Her patience running thin.
“Alright alright. Don’t worry it’s not a race.” Beau said, his voice calm.
“Sorry sorry. I’m just excited.” Amelia said as she removed her hand from the door handle.
As you were about to speak to reassure her that she didn’t need to apologize Beau did it for you. “No need to apologize Bean. I’m glad you’re excited.” He leaned in. “Wanna know a secret?”
“Yes.” She leaned in too, whispering.
“I’m excited too.” He smiled, whispering back. “Alright, I’ll open the door in five. Want to give me a countdown?”
Amelia kicked her feet with excitement. “Yes! One…two…three…four…five!” As soon as your daughter said five, Beau unlocked the doors and Amelia — without hesitation, opened the door and jumped out of the car.
As you watched her get out of the car and run into the empty field you pulled into, you couldn’t help but watch her as she ran around in circles occupying herself. Turning to Beau you smiled. “Thanks for this.” You said, placing your hand on his cheek.
“No need to thank me. I wanted to do this.” He reassured you, placing his hand on your thigh.
“I know but…I really do mean it. I really appreciate you doing this for Amelia…for me.”
“I’d do anything for both of you. You know that.” He gave your thigh a squeeze.
“I love you.” You said, slightly whispering.
“Love you too.” He said, leaning in and kissing you. “Come on, let’s go get her before she burns the field down.”
You grinned. “You know she would if she could.”
“Well, I don’t plan on making any arrests tonight. Well…not until later tonight.” He winked. “And with…permission of course ma’am.”
“Permission granted.” You winked back, the two of you kissing again.
“Okay so I brought your second favorite thing besides waffles.” Beau began as he started reaching into a bag next to him. As he grabbed the bag he pointed at Amelia. “No peaking.”
“No peaking!” She repeated back shutting her eyes and placing her hands over them.
“Are you peaking?” He asked her and then looked over at you.
“She keeps her word.” You said rubbing your hands together over the fire.
“Alright. I trust you.” He said. “Quick, how many fingers am I holding up?” He asked, not even putting any of his fingers up.
“Beau!” Amelia couldn’t help but let out the biggest giggle. It was the type of giggle you hadn’t heard her have in such a long time — and that was something that genuinely made you smile.
“Alright alright.” He said. “Open your eyes.” As her eyes opened he held the bag of marshmallows in his hand and her eyes light up like Christmas tree lights.
“Thank you thank you thank you!” She exclaimed getting up from her chair and running toward Beau with her hands out. Before she asked her next question she looked over at you, slight puppy dog eyes. “Mommy can I have one now?”
You couldn’t help but smile. “Ask Beau Sweetheart.”
She turned to him, her hands still out. “May I have a marshmallow please?”
“Well, you did say please.” He said opening the bag. “Just one, because we’re going to make s’mores in a few.” He placed a marshmallow in her hand, her face continued to beam with joy.
“Thank you!” She said placing the entire marshmallow in her mouth.
“You want one?” He asked, a marshmallow between his pointer finger and thumb looking at you.
“Sure. What will it cost me?” You asked, getting up from your own chair and walking toward him.
“Hmmm,” he was deep in thought. “Kiss me?”
“I can do that.” You leaned down, your hands on either side of his face as you kissed him.
“Ewwww.” You heard Amelia say from a few feet away. “Adults are gross.” She said, scrunching her face in disgust.
The two of you pulled away and you took the marshmallow from his hands. “Sorry Mel, we’ll be more careful.” Beau said, giving you a look of amusement.
As the night went on, things started to wind down and it was finally getting to one of your favorite parts of the night: looking up at the night sky. Although it was something the three of you were doing a majority of the night between the laughing, story telling, and food eating, this was the first time the three of you weren’t doing anything but looking up at the sky.
“You know, I’ve lived here all my life and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of looking at the sky.” You said, Beau’s arm around you now as Amelia made herself comfortable lying on a combination of not only your lap but Beau’s.
“It really is beautiful,” he agreed. “You know, as much as I love Texas, I’ll give Montana this, it does have some beautiful views.” He said looking at you as he said it.
You felt yourself blush at his compliment. “The views have definitely gotten better since you came to town.”
“Are you two going to kiss now?” Amelia said, looking up at the both of you.
“We could but, you do think it’s gross.” Beau commented.
“I’ll allow it.” Amelia said.
Beau and you exchanged looks. “You sure Bean?” You asked.
“I’m sure mommy. I’ll even close my eyes.” She said covering her eyes with her hands. “Whenever you’re ready.”
You and Beau let out small laughs. “With the permission of Amelia, can I kiss you darlin’?” He asked slightly leaning in.
“Yes you may.” You said, leaning in as well.
“Are you two kissing?” Amelia asked her eyes still closed. “Cause it doesn’t sound like it.”
Beau and you looked at Amelia, both of you holding back a laugh. “Come ‘ere.” You said, fully leaning in now and kissing him.
