This story is a project that I hold close to my heart. I read stories on wattpad that don't really show much representation--so I decided to write my own. And I also wanted to incorporate the topic of intersectionality especially relating to the LGBTQ+ community. Honestly, I really hope you enjoy this story. It's still a work in progress.
