Brooklyn and Alex had been making the most of the past few weeks before the list of players who would represent the United States in the Olympics was announced. During that time, they had also been reflecting on going public with their relationship and stopping hiding it from the world.

After talking to Brooklyn's publicist and Alex's agent, they both decided to take the plunge and make their relationship official. They uploaded a few photos together to their respective Instagram accounts, showing moments from the last two years they had been together.

Since then, they had been photographed a couple of times leaving or entering Brooklyn's apartment in TriBeCa, New York. Although they had been nervous at first about making their relationship public, they felt happy and liberated to be able to show themselves as they were, without having to hide their love.

The photos received an overwhelmingly positive response from their followers, who celebrated their love and bravery in going public with their relationship. Brooklyn and Alex were overwhelmed by the support and love of their fans.

Despite the overwhelming amount of positive and supportive comments Brooklyn and Alex received after going public with their relationship, there were also some negative comments and criticism.

Some followers expressed their disapproval and commented negatively on their relationship. Homophobic comments, unfair criticism and misplaced judgments flooded social media, reminding them that they lived in a world where same-sex love was still controversial for some.

Brooklyn and Alex faced these comments with courage and determination. They knew they couldn't let the hate and intolerance of a few affect their happiness and love for each other. Instead of letting the negative comments get to them, they held on even tighter to their love and support for each other.

Together, they decided to face hate with love, responding to negative comments with messages of positivity and hope. They refused to let the negative comments overshadow the love and happiness they had found together.

With their hearts in their fists and their nerves on edge, Brooklyn and Alex were eagerly awaiting the publication of the list of players who would represent the United States in the next Olympic Games. For Alex, the wait was even more intense, since her name was at stake. Both women were anxiously waiting to hear if Alex's name was on the list.

"Do you think I'll make it?" Alex asked, fiddling with his hands as they waited in front of the computer.

"Of course you do, babe. You are amazing, and you deserve it more than anyone." Brooklyn responded, gently squeezing Alex's hand to reassure her.

Every minute seemed like an eternity as they refreshed the sports websites again and again, waiting to see the official announcement. Finally, the moment they had been waiting for so long arrived.

With shaking hands, Alex opened the link announcing the list of players selected for the United States Olympic team. She frantically searched for her name among the list, feeling her heart pounding in her chest.

And then, she saw her. There, in bold and capital letters, was her name: ALEX MORGAN.

A scream of joy and excitement escaped Alex's lips as she jumped for joy. Brooklyn, who was next to her, hugged her tightly, sharing her excitement and happiness. "You did it, Al! I'm so proud of you!" Brooklyn exclaimed, with tears of joy in her eyes.

"We did it, baby! I'm going to the Olympics!" The player couldn't stop smiling as she hugged Brooklyn.

The two hugged each other tightly, sharing a moment of joy and celebration. They knew that this was just the beginning of an exciting new stage in their lives, and they were excited to face the challenges that the future held together. Together, they celebrated Alex's achievement, knowing that this was just the beginning of an exciting new stage in their lives.

Her moment of celebration was cut short by the ringing of the singer's phone. When Brooklyn picked up the phone she saw that she was her publicist, the superstar knew that Tree wouldn't call her if she wasn't important and much less on a day as special as this, so she decided to answer.

Brooklyn's heart stopped for a moment upon hearing Tree's words. Kim Kardashian had posted something on Twitter about her and it was trending. The singer felt a knot in her stomach, a feeling of fear and anxiety instantly invaded her.

"What did Kim say?" Brooklyn asked with a trembling voice, feeling a growing fear inside her.

"I'm not sure of the details, but it seems like she posted something related to Snake Day, with the hashtag #brookwilliamsisoverparty. I think you should check it out yourself, Brooklyn." Tree sighed on the other end of the line.

Brooklyn's heart was pounding as she opened Twitter on her phone. And then she saw him. A series of tweets from Kim Kardashian, suggesting that Brooklyn had been dishonest and that her relationship with Alex was not what she seemed. Plus, her hashtag was trending, and upon clicking on it, she saw an avalanche of tweets accusing her of being insensitive, selfish, and arrogant.

Fear and confusion gripped Brooklyn as she read the tweets. She knew this could ruin her career and her reputation in an instant.

"What should I do, Tree?" Brooklyn asked with a trembling voice, feeling lost and vulnerable.

"The first thing you should do is stay calm, Brooklyn. We will talk to the legal team and see how to address this. But for now, I would recommend that you don't reply to the tweets. We don't want to make things worse." the red-haired woman sighed regretfully.

Tears welled in Brooklyn's eyes as she struggled to process what she had just read. She didn't understand why Kim was attacking her like that, and she felt helpless in the face of the avalanche of hate and criticism that was raining down on her on social media.

In the midst of her confusion and anguish, Alex approached her and hugged her tightly, promising that she would be by her side no matter what happens to her. Together, they would face this new storm.
