Amelia 13 yo

Amelia Eilish, a 13-year-old with bright blue eyes and a curious mind, was the daughter of the famous singer Billie Eilish. She loved her school and her friends, and recess was always the highlight of her day. Today, as she and her friends gathered under their favorite tree in the schoolyard, the conversation took a turn that left Amelia feeling uneasy.

"So, did you hear about that video on the adult site?" Clara whispered, her eyes darting around to make sure no teachers were nearby.

"What site?" Amelia asked, her brows knitting in confusion.

"You know, the one where they show grown-up stuff," Clara explained, leaning in closer.

Amelia shook her head. "No, I don't know what you're talking about."

Jenny, another friend, giggled and joined the conversation. "It's this site where people post videos of themselves doing... adult things. My cousin showed me one, and it was wild!"

Amelia still didn't get it. "What do you mean by 'adult things'?"

Clara and Jenny exchanged glances before Clara began describing a video in detail. "There was this one video where a guy and a girl were doing... well, they were kissing and touching each other in ways that are definitely not for kids."

Jenny added, "And then it got even more intense. They started taking off their clothes and... you know, doing stuff."

Amelia's confusion deepened. "But why would they do that? And why would people watch it?"

"Because it's supposed to be exciting," Clara said. "You should just check it out. Go on your phone and search for it."

Amelia hesitated, feeling a mix of curiosity and discomfort. "I don't know if I should. My mom always tells me to be careful about what I watch online."

"Oh, come on," Jenny urged. "It's not a big deal. Everyone's seen them."

Amelia felt out of her depth. She didn't want to seem naive, but something about the conversation didn't feel right.

After school, Amelia Eilish came home and greeted her mom with a quick "Hi, Mom!" before heading straight to her bedroom. The curiosity planted by her friends at recess gnawed at her, urging her to investigate further. She closed her door behind her, sat down at her desk, and unlocked her computer.

Amelia hesitated for a moment before typing the name of the site her friends had mentioned into the search bar. The results popped up almost immediately, and she found herself staring at a list of videos with thumbnails that made her feel uneasy. Her heart pounded as she clicked on one of them, driven by a mix of curiosity and peer pressure.

As the video began to play, Amelia's eyes widened. The scenes she saw were confusing and made her feel uncomfortable. The two people in the video were acting rough with each other in ways that seemed anything but pleasant or loving. Amelia felt a knot tighten in her stomach, a clear sign that this wasn't something she should be watching.

She quickly closed the browser, her hands trembling slightly as she shut down her computer. She felt a mixture of guilt and relief wash over her. Guilt for having gone against her better judgment, and relief for having stopped before seeing any more.

After closing her computer, Amelia felt unsettled. She laid on her bed, turned on the TV, and put on her favorite show, Bluey. Hugging her stuffed animal tightly, she started sucking on her thumb, seeking comfort in the familiar routine.

A few minutes later, Billie came to Amelia's door and saw her daughter quietly watching TV. "Hey, sweetheart," she said gently, "why don't you go take a shower and freshen up?"
