So with Not So Bad coming to an end shortly...I am going to start a new story (or finish an old one). What I was wondering is which one would each of you be most likely to read? These are several ideas that I've had for years...and I am going to eventually write all of them...just looking for input from the readers point of view of what you'd like to see first? Its going to be a LONG post... Here are the ideas...
Sing the Sorrow
Sometimes misunderstandi ng and miscommunicati on can have the worst consequences. When Ayleen thinks her long time boyfriend, AJ, has betrayed her trust, she ends their relationship without taking time to listen to him. When AJ ends up in the hospital and in a coma, Ayleen goes to see him, realizing how quick she was to judge, blaming herself for the situation he is in. She soon befriends Nick, who is there for his little sister, bedridden with cancer, and together they try to get through their emotional demons, seeing that one can only take things day by day, letting go of guilt, and that everything else is left up to fate.
Summary sucks...need to work on rewording it...but...thi s one has 4 chapters done.
Weird World
Everything is going great for Nick. His career is starting over again as a Backstreet Boy and he is in a strong relationship. His world is turned upside down though when he is drafted in to the army. Nick’s life becomes hell as he is in constant fear through the strenuous training and then sent overseas to fight for his country, while the other four boys continue touring without him. Will Nick return safe and well, getting back to his old life once the nightmare is over, or will BSB be left with it’s 5th member gone forever?
Now I know that Kevin is no longer in the group...but... this one would have him in it
still. The story would take place back when Never Gone was released.
Goodbyes
After breaking off their four year relationship with April, Brian flees for an unknown place, determined to start over and forget the life he left behind. Keeping in touch for awhile, the two slowly lose contact with each other all together until nothing is left at all. Years later, Brian moves back to the small town he left. He has a lot of questions in the back of his mind, mainly if April still lives there. It is then that he realizes how much he has missed in his time away from old friends and the woman he came to realize was his soul mate, and if his disappearance could have prevented it all.
This one would be written as an AU story. The other members will be in this in some
form or another...but not as a music group.
Love Me Back To Life
Brian, after months of grieving after a breakup, has fallen in love again. The thing is, nobody can see her but him because she is the spirit of a girl who wasn’t supposed to die. She is being given one more chance to be alive again. The catch is, she has to fall in love and have the feelings returned with only 6 months to do so, or else she’ll be a ghost forever. Will the power of love be enough though, or will it take more for Brian to ‘Love her back to live.’
Okay, I know this story sounds a LOT like that movie...Just Like Heaven...BUT.. .I
swear I wrote this summary a couple of years before that movie even came out! I
have it planned so the actual story wont sound all that much like the movie at all.
Trust me on this one. When the movie came out, my first thought was 'They stole
my idea!!!' lol.
Underneath the Surface
After going clubbing one night in hopes to meet her perfect match, Dana stumbles upon Nick. After a few dates, Nick and Dana become serious. It isn't until then that she discovers that Nick has a problem...a drinking problem. When he drinks, he becomes violent, taking his anger out on her. Dana won't leave him though because when Nick is sober, he is sweet and romantic, unlike the monster she see's come out almost every night. Even Dana can only take so much though. She threatens Nick, telling him he needs to get some help or else she will leave him. After a few threats, and Dana actually moving out, he quickly enrolls into AA, hoping to win her back. Although the recovery is long, and takes time, Nick finally becomes his true self after much counseling. The guy Dana always knew he was. Nick eventually stops drinking all together and he and Dana have a great relationship that nobody can break. But will he slip back into his old ways and lose her for good when hard times arise later on?
Upside Down
After a night out, Backstreet Boys Brian, Nick and A.J. are driving home from a club. All three are drunk, including the driver. When they are in an accident on the way back to their hotel, the unthinkable happens, leaving one man dead, one in a coma and the third with severe amnesia. Nobody knows what happens, leaving many unanswered questions in the minds of several people as they try to figure out exactly what went wrong. Kevin and Howie, the only two unharmed learn that nothing can turn back time and erase what happened as their lives are suddenly turned upside down, but can at least set their minds at peace knowing what caused the events of that fateful night to happen and startling facts that may have prevented them.
Or...continue working on/finish one of these first. I stopped writing them due to lack of feedback/interest in them from readers. I will likely finish one of these while doing a new one.
Fresh Start (Sequel to For Better, For Worse)
Kevin, Anna, AJ, Jaime, Nick and Stephanie are back. After being in a coma for months, Kevin finally woke up, deciding it was time to give touring a try in his current state. The tour is over now and new problems are about to surface as old graves are dug up, which bring on a whole new array of events. Nick and Stephanie are on rocky grounds while at the same time, AJ and Jaime are planning a wedding. Anna and Kevin are taking things slow, trying to get their lives back to normal after the events that took place in the beginning stages of their relationship. Will everything turn out the way it is supposed to, or are some things lost forever making the old saying true that ‘some things just aren’t meant to be’ ?
Affliction
Summary: Kendra has no idea how much her life is about to change when she is diagnosed with Osteosarcoma after a gymnastics competition went wrong. While her long time boyfriend suddenly stops contacting her all together, she meets Anthony, who is going through the same things as her. Not all endings are happy though as tragedy strikes, leaving Kendra wondering if there is anything good that will come of any of the past few months.
Original fic...no BSB whatsoever.
Future Vision (Trilogy to Permanent Tracings/Mirror Image)
AJ is psychic, having the power to see in to the future, most of his visions being tragic disasters. The thing is, he?s never told anybody, fearing that they will see him as a freak or outcast, including his best friends and group members. So when he has a vison that is a life or death situation for him as well as his friends, will AJ end up telling them to save them, or still hide it, hoping that for just once, what he see?s isn?t what happens.
I know this is a long post...but I have quite a few ideas! lol. Again, if you could leave me some input on what you'd like to see done first...let me know! Thanks so much!
