Ideas for part of my story?
My character, who is a girl, keeps seeing a person in her dreams. She runs into him at a pool hall after seeing him in her dreams for months. The problem is, I don't know why he was in her dreams. I need a purpose. I really want a bit of supernatural, but anything to do with time traveling or angels or vampires is just corny and cliche. I need ideas! :/ So please put your thinking cap on and think of some reasons he's been in her dreams, and what happens when they see eachother. Thank you so much!

Maybe he's a killer and she's just the person to catch him. Or she has to save him because he's supposed to do something that will change history.

You could use some other types of myths/lore like maybe "the red string of fate". Basically, the legend claims that an invisible red string is tied to either the ankles (Chinese Lore) or pinky fingers (Japanese Lore) of two people that are destined to meet or help each other in a certain way. You can alter this myth in a way so that the characters are attached mentally, therefore explaining why he appears in her dreams. Also, you can use the myth in a way that it can be a romance, or even just a strong friendship. Hope I helped.

He could be her "instincts".
Like he could be trying to foretell her something, and she doesn't understand it.
For example; let's say she has a dream where she is tied up,
and is in some place that resembles to a closest (or whatever).
She sees someone open the door and it's that guy.
Now there's to ways you could go with this idea.
Could he be the one who tied her up? Maybe.
Could he be there to free here? Possibly.
So maybe he is trying to hint to her the future.
It could go either way.
Good Luck! :)

Well, I wager it is dependent what church the MC goes to. I've visited a few Roman Catholic church buildings earlier than they usually uncover teenager being pregnant a bit of mistaken for the reason that it is in opposition to the Bible to have intercourse earlier than marriage. I might get into why that is comprehensible. Anyways, you may also wish to take a while to explain what variety of priest he's. I've been to church earlier than and feature noticeable pregnant young adults, and the priest is NEVER impolite sufficient to drive them up at the level and chastise them. The worst he can do is scold them, and supply them eye touch whilst speaking approximately the wrongness of early being pregnant. Of direction, that is simply me being functional. You might do that, and definite I wager it could make a nice time to exhibit your characters bravness. Good success!

Maybe the boy is special in some way, like he will have to save her from something, or she will have to save him. Maybe, he is a ghost of a person that killed one of her relatives, or the relative that got killed, or something like that. Even though yo said time travel is too cliche, you could still do it, but with a twists that wasn't done before.
