I have decided to stop putting it off and listen to my
little sister. She thinks I am a great writer (Laughing
inside of my head. So. Not. True) and has been
pushing me to write a One Direction fan fiction. I
like reading fanfictions, more than I like writing
them, if only cause I have not written any great
material since sophomore year. But...I am willing
to give it a shot. Here is my sneak peak of my fan
fiction, which will be premiering on your local
Watpad soon. (Screen flashes and cuts to rolling
film. Narration fills the speakers.)
The Leaves Can Float as Gently as They are Stroked:
A One Direction Fan fiction:
Introduction: Othella Parker is just about as average as one can be, but
in her complicated mind, average is not just a word. It is a question
waiting to be answered. Confusing, am I right? What “Otillie” struggles
with is a case of anxiety disorder, and she has been struggling with it for
years. The major problem was that nobody noticed it in her, until she was
fourteen years of age. So…she may look like every other girl in the
outside, but in the inside, there is a pain that no one can describe to her,
and no one seems to understand. Just as she is on the verge of turning in
her faith for a completely depressed lifestyle, her older sister, Stella,
introduces her to the music of the ever-so famous and adorable bunch of
five misfits, who go by the name of One Direction. While, internally, the
struggles for Otillie may be fighting against the effects of her disorder,
on the outside, she must face the struggles of being a senior in high
school, of saying goodbye and finally allowing herself to come into her
own. You may be wondering as to how One Direction enters this story.
Well…Let us just say that Otillie becomes obsessed with meeting up with
the boys, and to uncover who they really are. Perhaps, she thinks that in
uncovering the people behind the music, she can uncover something about
who she truly is. Written in script form, “Leaves” is a story about what it
means to start again and all the difficulties attached to that process
, including creating a new mindset and learning to judge yourself, instead
of hearing the judgment of others. I hope that this story does not just
touch the stories of my fellow fan girls. I hope that this story can touch
everyone, because this story is not simply the story of a character. It is
the story of everyone, who has ever had to struggle with something like
this, no matter if it has a scientific name or not. <3
