Since I took so long to put up the last update, here's some fun facts:
- Reece was originally just going to be a minor character and his story was supposed to just revolve around him liking Sierra and they were going to end up together. I knew that him and Mal were going to sleep together in the beginning but I didn't think that I'd fall in love with him like this LOL
- Andre was supposed to be Mal's major love interest, but I don't remember if they were going to end up together. When I realized that I liked Reece, I was going to make it an equal battle for them. You can kind of tell in that chapter where they hung out and watched scary movies together. I was really cheering for Andre, but then I thought it would get too messy because of Sierra, so I made him the bad guy haha
- Jasper was supposed to be a much larger character. I think I ended up replacing him with Travis. There was supposed to be a lot more focus on his 'relationship' with Mari, but then when I started writing about Travis I was just like fuck it, and it worked out better because Travis is friends with Reece so I could do more with it
- Raven was supposed to be a BITCH and Jasper was supposed to cheat on her with Mari and it was going to be this huge thing when it came out. Mari was supposed to use this to try and convince Mal to give Andre a chance even though he was with Sierra. I think this would have been a good plotline and I kind of regret not getting it in there, but I would have needed to establish that relationship between him and Mari, plus Andre and Mal would have to be a thing.
- Mari is supposed to just pronounced 'Mary' but it has an I because MarIanna, but I always read it as MAH-REE anyways
- Mal's middle name was going to be Symphoni??
- Jasper was supposed to find the list a looooong time ago and end up helping them cross some stuff off
- The setting was supposed to just be a fictional place (their uni town is made up, even though I based it off of where I go to school), but then I mentioned the Raptors (we really won!!!!), so I guess you can say it's not a part of the GTA but its around there
- If you need a visual for the characters, or if you were just wondering: Mal is lightskin (because when I write her appearance, I'm basically just describing myself lmao), she's 18; Mari is brownskin, she's African, I'm not sure from what country yet though, she's also 18; Raven is white, she's a pale red head, she's 18; Jasper is a skinny white blonde guy (he's super cute, trust me, but when I think of the name Jasper, I immediately think of the one from Twilight, do with that info whatever you please), he's 19; Andre is darkskin, he's 6'5 (I really wrote that in my notes for the story), he's 19; Sierra is tinyyyy, she's brownskin with freckles and her hair is dyed blonde, she's 19; Josh is brownskin, he's 5'10 and kinda thique, but like because he's super muscular, he's 19; Travis has a full beard and waves apparently, according to my notes, but I didn't put his height, he's 18; and FINALLY, my love Reece Xavier Reyes is latino, not sure where he's from, he doesn't have a height, but whenever I hear 'Reece" I think of Francisco yum, he has curly brown hair (think young Fransisco, like cover of Bad Boy, Cupid, & Me young) and I made it a point to write 'super cocky, anger issues, gets superrrrr close with Mal then disappears"
- I'm just now taking in that I've changed so much about the story from my original plan! Maybe it would have been better that way tbh, but I'm hoping that you guys were still entertained regardless!
