CLOSED: "April Showers" Mavid Challenge
Due to several stories this challenge is no loger open. It is closed. However, if you want to read the information, feel free to.
For those who like taking challenges here is one for you:
It is almost year after Idol and both Michael and David are big music stars, on the top of the world, etc. One day David gets a call from parents of an ex-girlfriend to find out she has died (she could have died in a car crash, cancer, she was murdered, whatever, you get to chose, as long as she is DEAD. Man, that makes me sound like a lovely person doesn't it?) and the parents tell him that (get ready for it) he has a daughter, a daughter by the name of April. She, the ex-girlfriend, has said in her will if anything should ever happen to her that David is to be contacted and given the guardianship of April. HOWEVER if David feels he can handle the guradianship of April then he has the choice of given the guradianship of April over to her parents
Still with me? I hope so, if you are, please read the rest:
So now that I have the basic summery out of the way let me get into the details. Let's call them things I would like to see and what I think should be covered in a story like this.
-David and the ex-girlfrend/mother of his child,let's call her Tracey (NOTE: Tracey does not have to be her name, if you want to change her name then go ahead. For lack of a better name I shall call her Tracey) broke up a week before he tried out for American Idol BUT one night before they decided to go their seperate ways they did dirty and do what two people who are together do. WINK WINK
-You can decide what happened that night. They were drunk so he forgot about protection. The condom broke and she was not on the pill, are there any more possibilities I'm leaving out??? Whatever you chose it results in April.
-After he finds out about April (you handle his reaction). The first person he thinks of telling is Michael. So he does and you write how that goes
-EVENTUALLY afer the shock wears off, after he talks to Michael and Michael reacts, and David tells whoever else he wants to tell, David flies back home to meet his daughter, who is the spitting image of him, expect she has her mother's eyes. (For those of you making the Harry Potter reference, STOP)
-He sees April and falls in love with her right away and choses to go back to LA and see how life with April will be and getting used to father hood. Have FUN with that. (FUN, FUN, FUN)
-When David has doubts about being a father, feels as if he will not be able to be a good one Michael will be there telling him he can be a father and a good one.
-Michael needs to be in this as much as possible. Michael and David can be together at the start of this or they can have a build up through out the story and it ends with them getting together or already together. IMPORTANT NOTE: However you want their realtionship to be is up to you but the story MUST end wiith Michael and David being a couple. I would not be posting this if there was no David/Michael realtionship
-Michael's marragie: He can be divorced, getting divorced, or still married. Whatever you chose.
-You can have as much David/Michael action as you want. Making out, sex, you get the point. The sky is the limit.
-As far as David keeping April is up to you. Remember: he has the choice of giving April over to Tracey's parents. He can give April over to Tracey's parents and still be in her life. David would still want to be in April's life.
Questions you might have at this moment/things to think about:
-Why didn't Tracey tell David about April? That is once again, up to you. Maybe she was scared, maybe she didn't think David would be a good father, there are SO many choices out there. Being scared tends to be an esay one, but remember, David doesn't know. (Unless he choses to ask her parents? Maybe?)
-David would most likely rant and vent to Michael about why Tracey would not tell him. He can be angry, upset. He can have a total meltdown and Michael is being his wonderful Aussie self and offering David a shoulder to cry on. I'm a sucker for hurt/comfort, I love it, in my view the more hurt/comfort the better, but that is just me. This is your story.
-People's reactions: His mother, the rest of his family, Carly, Brooke, Kimberly, the more people the merrier and oh yeah, THE MEDIA.
-April's age: I'm not to sure when American Idol tryouts were. I think depending on the month you set the start of the story in (March, April, May) she would be almost a year, maybe over. I'm not sure on the math. Trust me when I tell you I suck at numbers, so her age is mostly up to you. I'm sorry about that part.
-Tracey's parents: They can be nice about David being the father, they can be kind of angry and want April with them, your choice.
- The title: It does not have to be "April Showers" The title can be whatever you want it to be. Her name still has to be April. I would like the title to be "April Showers" but if you don't like it then feel free to change it. I'm not going to hunt you down if you change the title.
- Remember: Tracey does not have to be Tracey. She can be Molly, Jill, Jane, Sarah, Heidi, etc. She is whatever you want her to be, but remember: She is dead. Six feet under.
-The rating can be anywhere from G to NC-17
-Genre: There is no certain genre. Whatever genre you want it to be it can be. I pretty much wrote this with a bunch of different genres. Angst, humor, drama, hurt/comfort. If you don't want to classify the story a genre then don't. I never say what my genre's are. I just write what I want and whatever it turns out to be it is.
-Kimberly Caldwell: Her and David and can be just friends. She could be his cover up. She doesn't have to be in the story at all. Your choice.
- I don't think this is going to very esay to write. I've wrote as much as I could about it. Anything I left out is pretty much up to you. There are SO many talented people on here and who ever says they want it, I have no doubt it's going to be good.
-If you don't what the chanllenge then please comment anyway with your thoughts. I like comments.
-HAVE FUN, HAVE FUN. I don't want anyone to take it feeling like they can't handle it or feel some sort of pressure that it has to be perfect. I want you to have fun and enjoy writing it.
Did I leave anything out?
