Searching for Estelle.

Image

Estelle Jacobs is a shy 25 year old wannabe writer. She's spent her entire life in a small town and prefers to live her life comfortably below the radar. Her best friend, Danielle, is her rock and her polar opposite. She's loud, boisterous and self confidant. The two are travelling through Europe together but when a chance meeting and a twist of fate separates them Estelle is forced to go it alone and, with the help of a friend, finds herself in ways she never expected.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters you recognise, which includes: the members of the 69 Eyes, the members of HIM and, later on, Bam Margera and Brandon Novak (also any others that may pop up). I do, however, own my original characters (namely Estelle and Danielle) and the plot, so please respect that.

Warnings: Only language at this point, may change however.

I am also very, very keen to hear your feedback so please be lovely and comment so I know where I'm going wrong, where I'm going right and whether it's a lost cause altogether.
