23. Chapter 22

A/N: I am finding it rather difficult to believe that I am about to start writing Chapter 22 of "Adopted Book 1: Kylee." When I had first started writing this fanfiction I was not entirely certain what was really going to happen or even how long it was going to be mainly because of the fact that I was working on writing a story that had been running through my mind for the longest time. Every time that I had gotten ideas for this particular fanfiction I was finding myself wondering if it was honestly good enough to be published on the 3 different sites that I am currently writing for and if people would actually read the story that I was writing without saying something negative about the things that I had been writing.

When I had first started writing this fanfiction and had been working so hard on each of the chapters that I had written, no matter how long or short they happened to be during that time, there had been no way that I could have honestly known that the first book of the "Adopted" series was going to end up being as long as it currently is. I had also been noticing that there had been people out there who had been spreading all kinds of negativity on the stories and fanfictions that they did not like for whatever reason. Most of the time when I would be seeing some of the negative comments that people were posting on the fanfictions that other people had been writing I could not help noticing that most of the people that were commenting these terrible things were hiding behind accounts that were not officially part of that particular site and had been hiding behind these guest accounts thinking that nobody would be able to figure out that what they had actually been doing was a form of cyber bullying which has been made illegal in many countries around the world. Yet at the same time that I was noticing these horrible comments on the fanfictions that I had been reading it had seemed that whoever was running a certain site was either not noticing these terrible comments and how much they had to do with bullying the other writers or they either did not care about how much these comments had to do with that kind of bullying. It has been mainly because of these things that I have told those that are reading my fanfictions to keep their negativity or negative comments to themselves because nobody deserves to be bullied for the things that they are writing, no matter what fandom they happen to be writing for during that time. This does not mean, however, that those people who have nice or positive things to say about a fanfiction that I have written cannot share their comments because I would love to see these positive comments as they help me figure out exactly where I am going to be able to go with whatever chapter I happen to be writing during that time.

During the time that I am writing this particular fanfiction I am also working on another one that is based in the Harry Potter universe. Even though I am just starting to write that particular fanfiction I would like people to remember that the same rules apply for that fanfiction as they do for Law and Order SVU fanfiction that you are finding this rather long note attached to. Please keep your negativity to yourself whenever it comes to any of the fanfictions that I am writing and the truth is that there is already so much negativity within the world do we really want to add more to it by adding that negativity to the fanfictions that people are writing? This is honestly something for people to stop and think about during the time that they are reading the fanfictions that I have been writing. I would like to leave you with one final thought, however, and I hope that people will understand exactly why I am mentioning these things. With all of the people that are out there commenting on the hard work and dedication that people are showing I find myself thinking about something that I had been taught while I was growing up. I had always been told that if I could not say anything nice about something or someone that I shouldn't say anything at all. Right now I am going to leave you with something that will be saying the same thing and that is "If you can't comment something nice then don't comment anything at all." If you remain positive about a fanfiction that you do not care about for whatever reason, you are actually helping that person more than you would if you were spreading your negativity. It will also help if you remember that it was your choice to start reading a particular fanfiction, no matter what the fandom happens to be, and you just happen to have that same choice when it comes to whether you stop reading that very same fanfiction because of the fact that there is something within that fanfiction that you do not happen to care for. I think that if for whatever reason you had decided that you no longer wish to read the fanfiction that you were reading that there is no need to spread your negative comments about it since it had been entirely your choice to read something that deep down you knew that you were not enjoying for whatever reason. For now I will wish you all happy reading and hope that you will enjoy this chapter of "Adopted Book 1: Kylee."

Brian had found himself waiting for about a month to find out whether he was going to be able to go back to SVU the way that he had wanted to do and even then he had wondered just what had ended up taking so long. The last thing that Brian had honestly wanted to happen was to speak to Tucker about his transfer, but it was obvious that he did not have any kind of a choice if he was wanting to get his old job back no matter what his reasons had been for these things at the time. He had absolutely no idea that Tucker would take the opportunity to speak to whoever was currently the captain of SVU to ensure that nothing serious had gone wrong with the transfer papers as well as find out the reason that he or she had not signed off on permitting him to return to SVU the way that he had honestly wanted to be doing. All that Brian knew for certain was that whatever the reason had been that he was being forced to wait for his transfer to go through there was definitely something happening that he was never exactly expecting for the longest time.

Shortly after Olivia had signed the papers that would be permitting Brian to return to the unit she had found herself wondering if she had honestly made the right decision, especially after everything that had happened during the last time that he had been working in the very same unit that she had been working in for as long as either of them could honestly remember. There had been certain times when Olivia had felt that Brian had not exactly been the right person to be working for SVU and yet it had taken the fact that he had been transferred out of the unit to make him realize these things. Now that Cragen was no longer captain, however, he was now making every attempt that he possibly could to return. For some reason Olivia had started to get the feeling that the main reason that Brian was even wanted to return was that he had started to regret certain decisions that he had made when they had been working together and he was honestly hoping that he could fix the things that had happened, even if it had meant possibly ruining Olivia's life in order to make sure that these things had been taking place.

Throughout the entire time that Kylee had been back at the group home and was trying to make every attempt to get used to being back where everything had literally started since the day she had learned about what had happened to her parents. During the time that Kylee had been staying with Billy and Emily she had learned that it had been because of Jerimiah that her parents had ended up being found in their house dead, even though the police had honestly believed during that time that it was quite possibly a murder/suicide and could not exactly find the evidence that would have shown otherwise throughout that entire time. Kylee had honestly started to believe that it was Jerimiah that had killed her mother and then had realized that her father had been a witness to everything and knew that Kylee's father would eventually have to be dealt with in order to keep all kinds of trouble from taking place. Kylee had only started to realize that there had been more to the situation when, even the police, could not find the evidence to prove that both of her parents had been brutally murdered during that weekend when she had been attending the sleepover that her best friend had been having. In many ways Kylee had hoped that there would be something happening where she could eventually get the help that she had always wanted and needed, and the first thing that she would eventually have to do was talk to Olivia and see if there was ever going to be that chance that she could honestly consider her as her foster mother the way that she had honestly wanted to do from the very beginning.

For several days after Kylee had been brought to the group home it had seemed that she had been watching the other kids find the families that they had wanted and needed, but even then it had seemed that she just could not stop thinking about some of the things that had been taking place. Kylee had heard from so many of the other kids that being in foster care could sometimes prove to be a rather long endless nightmare and Kylee had started to believe that they might have been telling her the truth after she had already been in two different foster homes and she still ended up back in a group home waiting for another foster family to come around that would eventually take an interest in her the way that they did whenever it came to the other kids that were staying at the group home with her. Kylee knew that some of these kids had absolutely no idea just what she had been through or even what she had found out about her parents during that time, but at the same time she knew that she would have to do everything that she possibly could to make sure that she had made a few friends among some of these other kids no matter how long they would be in the same place. Kylee knew that no matter how many kids she had become friends with while she was at the group home that there could always be that chance that they would never see each other again and if that happened it would only prove that their friendship was not meant to last the way that she had honestly led herself to believe throughout that entire time. Either way, Kylee knew that she was not about to let any of these things get her down and sooner or later she would find herself having a better life no matter what she would have to do in the process.

For several days after the new work week had started Amanda could tell that there had been a number of things that Olivia had found herself thinking about. It had not exactly helped matters much that Tucker had seemed to be arriving at the precinct at the weirdest moments, and this time it was becoming obvious that he was not exactly taking an interest in the rumors that he had been hearing during the time that Amanda and Olivia had been spending more time together over the years. Amanda had felt that this time there was going to be something happening that would only prove to add more stress to Olivia's life and that was really the last thing that her boss and captain had really needed during that time. By the time that Tucker had left the precinct Amanda had found herself wondering if Olivia would honestly take a few minutes to talk about whatever demands that Tucker had been making right from the moment that he had gotten to the precinct.
