VERY IMPORTANT A/N:
So...the good news is that I made up with my friend. :D I didn't think it would happen but as we humans tend to do, we both said things we didn't mean, we talked it out, apologised, and now we're talking and not fighting. And I want to thank all of you for your support and your really wonderful reviews.
So I've kind of lost my mojo with this story. I don't know what happened but I don't think I'm going to finish it. I know, I know, you hate me. But, as I'm starting uni, I think it's time that I start something new. As per usual, I thought up these really great characters I want to write about. The plot is still in the question mark category. So, to apologise for me just giving up, I'm going to give you the concept I've come up with and I'd like you (as you're all so amazing) to give me a hand. Tell me what you want to see in this story, something I've never done before. What you think these characters should do/say etc. What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you read this? As always, any ideas used shall be dedicated to the person who thought it us. As I'm starting uni, my writing schedule will probably be kinda erratic so I'm probably going to wait until it's finished. But you guys know me. I'll probably write six chapters and upload weekly :P
So Gabriella is a teacher (probably of 6-7 year old kids). She's probably 31/32. She's really outgoing and crazy and she blames that on working with kids. she does all of these extreme sports like rock climbing, abseiling etc. But she's terrified of water and can't swim. She usually has loads of animals (cat, dog, snake, fish etc.) because her parents are vets. She also has a boyfriend who travels for work a lot and a younger brother.
Troy, on the other hand, is a business man who owns hotels and invests in companies and such. He always wears suits and takes most aspects of life seriously. He doesn't like animals much and he complains because Scarborough doesn't have a Starbucks. He's probably 35/36. He has no real family because he has no siblings and his parents died in a fire after he graduated from uni.
They meet because Gabriella has a new boy in her class, Mark Bolton. She phones for a parent-teacher meeting because she's worried about Mark's progress.
That's what I have so far. Ideas are welcome.
And I'm so, so, so sorry for just giving up like this :\
