《The Crimes of Society: A Lady Gaga Story》What About Hope?
Advertisement
Taylor sat at Gaga's bedside. She hadn't woken up yet. It was the day after everything happened. Their family was there. Joe paced around the room while Cynthia sat in the corner staring at her unconscious daughter. The baby was still alive. Not breathing in her own yet, but everyone's hoping for the best.
Taylor whispered to Gaga, "Stef, I don't know if you can hear me, but our daughter is here. She's alive. The doctors have been asking me for her name, but I'm waiting for you. So we can do this together like we were supposed to. I already miss your smile and your laugh..." he kissed her hand "I love you so much. I really hope you know that..." His voice cracked and tears welled up in his eyes.
Joe walked over to Taylor and placed his hand on his shoulder. "She's going to make it. She has to" Joe whispered.
"I want us to be a family" Taylor sobbed.
"You will. We all will. Its just a matter of time"
Gaga's P.O.V.
Gaga heard Taylor's voice. She barely remembered what happened the night before, but she was exhausted even with being unconscious. Her stomach hurt like it had been ripped open which by the sounds of it, it had been. Her daughter, no THEIR daughter had been born way too early. Its a miracle that she even survived.
Gaga could feel Taylor's years drip onto her hand. She knew she had to wake up soon.
Regular P.O.V.
Taylor and Joe were talking about things when a doctor walked in "Hello guys. I have some good news" he said cheerfully.
Taylor stood up as fast as he could "What is it?" He asked hastily.
"Would you like to meet your daughter? You can't hold her but you can go see her in the incubator"

"Yes yes! Of course!" Taylor replied.
He followed the doctor to the second floor where the NICU was placed. He was led into a room full of incubators. The doctor pointed to one in the far corner and Taylor walked over and saw his baby girl.
"She's so small, so beautiful at the same time. I don't know how to describe it" Taylor was almost speechless at the sight of her tiny body.
"She's going to be small for a while, but the lucky part is that she developed much faster than most infants so she's going to be normal health wise" the doctor explained.
"Really? Then when can we take her home?"
"Not for a while. We need her to gain some weight which could take a while
Taylor looked back at his daughter "Oh ok"
"But pretty soon you'll be able to hold her. Have you thought of any names yet?"
"I'm waiting for Stefani to wake up. After what she just went through, I think it should be up to her" Taylor answered with a bit of attitude.
They left and Taylor returned to the room only to see what he had been hoping for. "Stef! You're awake!" He bolted over to her and embraced her.
"I love you too by the way. I heard what you said. Hows our baby?" She asked in a raspy voice.
"She's beautiful! She was sleeping, but I can already tell she's going to be amazing" he replied with his eyes shining.
"We need to think of names"
"I know I was just waiting for you. we'll do this together"
Gaga immediately thought of a bane that fit perfectly considering the situation, "What about Hope?"
"It's beautiful!"

A Step Behind Death
Please share your thoughts about the story! Feedback and criticism is welcome, it'll help me improve my writing. "The final year of high school is the most difficult." This statement has never been truer for Damis, a student attending one of the many schools in the City of Sundridge. He never wanted anything more than to live a peaceful life, going so far as to avoid having large group of friends, indulging in dragged out conversations, or being involved in any other activity that requires him to invest a large amount of effort to accomplish. Instead, he poured all of his efforts into studying, dwelling in his internal monologues, and complaining about the things that annoy him to his one and only friend, Noah. Before long, he ended up as one of the best students in his class. As far as he was concerned, he was content with how he lived. But, after a confrontation with an eccentric girl named May, one of his classmates since the first year of high school, things have suddenly gotten out of hand. And as a result, his life became a lot more hectic than it used to be. Bound by a deal he could not refuse, his life as May's assistant began. At this rate, can he still spend the final days of his high school life in peace? Welcome to the life of Damis, the boy who's always A Step Behind Death. The cover art is made by friend of mine. I plan on making this novel into a webtoon once it becomes the best it can be. English isn't my first language, so expect some grammar bumps along the way.

Arching Choices
This is a story I used to do with people in an afterschool club, where I would make up a story, that the user/player would have options to choose from no matter how creative. There will be multiple polls, and I will read comments for the actions of the player, any one can play, because the charater will be gender neutral, but the choices will affect the story, whether it be your companions, and items you acquire. I'm a newbie writer but I just want to have some fun making a story. The chapters will be short so that the viewers can make choices. Longer chapters will be made once this has some good choice options. I thought it would be fun for the readers to develop the character's personality. Critisism welcome, because I have no idea how to write stories. P.S, Once the Character's personality is fleshed out the Synopsis will probably change
