I signed up for NaNoWriMo this year and I have this really vivid plot idea in my head but I just can’t think of a title or how to start the story. Here’s the basic overview:
Samantha (the protagonist) has a pretty normal life for a sixteen year old, but one day she runs into the slightly perverted Ayden (I need help on how they meet). He knows too much about her and her life, to the point where he’s begun to subtly hint what goes on in her dreams. He’s not human, that much she knows especially when he appears out of no where, disappears randomly and can make flames appear in his hand, but it’s not until he begins to question her about God and the afterlife that she worries. He’s far too fascinated in what she believes will happen when she dies and fears begin to form, meanwhile Ayden is trying his hardest to win her over. He’s perverted constantly, always attempting to “touch her up”. About a third way into the story, Ayden meets Samantha’s best friend (let’s call him X for now) and Ayden discovers that he is not who he seems and is intent on seperating the two of them, especially when X recognises who Ayden is and suddenly ups the ante and tells Samantha he loves her. Lots of other stuff happen, but the basic outcome is that the Earth was created by four Gods, four elements. Ayden is the Fire, Nerina is the Water, Anil is the Air and finally, Samantha (or as Ayden knows her: Horina) is the Earth. Samantha’s best friend is another God but he’s taken the wrong path. (For the next part, you need to imagine that a world exists in which these Gods live, and there are many and they entertain themselves by creating other worlds) In the world of the Gods, Ayden and Samantha grew up together along with Nerina, Anil and X. Ayden and Samantha were extremely close to one another and X was jealous. When they finish “God School”, Ayden, Samantha, Nerina and Anil created the Earth, but as Ayden and Samantha grew close and X grew more evil, troubles arose causing Ayden to send Samantha down to the Earth as a human until it was safe. She’s been there for five thousand years. Everytime she dies, she reincarnates herself (The God part of her mind knowing Ayden is right to do this) and is reborn as a new human. Eventually, X disappears and Ayden plans to bring Samantha back but a new problem arises when X turns half-human and befriends Samantha (her human mind not knowing of the risk) and Ayden, with the help of Nerina and Anil, must save her. Yaddah, yaddah. As I said, a brief overview. Sorry if it’s long-winded. So yeah, I need help with how Samantha and Ayden first meet, it needs to be dramatic and an instant clue that Ayden isn’t quite human, and I need a title to use for it. Suggestions?
