olive is a natural beauty. she inherited her mother's soft eyes and dark hair, and her father's strong jawline and full lips. she stands at an intimidating height of 5' 8", and has long, slender legs, well-muscled from years of running track. she has a naturally fast metabolism, and strong bone structure- sharp cheekbones, prominent collarbones, defined shoulder blades. she takes meticulous care of her skin and rarely wears more makeup than mascara and concealer. olive has hazel eyes, framed by thick lashes. she has a narrow nose and her dad's full lips and jawline. olive also takes pride in her hair, keeping it long and usually curling it. however, when she focuses, she has a habit of sweeping it up in a bun or ponytail. she is very confident in her body and likes to wear bold colors. olive isn't interested in fashion, but she sticks to simple color palettes. she can pull just about anything off.
personality:
olive is passionate. she's ambitious and determined to get what she wants, no matter the cost. in academics, she's ruthlessly focused, and sure to do her very best in every class, no matter how mind-numbing. she's social and sweet, and loves being the center of attention. however, she's also a fierce leader, and her excellent communication skills and vision ensure that she can take charge and successfully execute a project of any scale. she is desperate for recognition, and being stuck in low-level positions or assigned to boring tasks drives her crazy. olive loves being responsible and trusted, and can often come off as a bit of a teacher's pet. she prioritizes success and is selfless to the point of sleep or food deprivation if it gets the job done. but olive is never one to complain. olive is incredibly social. she loves spending time around other people, and has a knack for making them feel loved. she's not quite a queen bee, but she's popular and well-known around town. she's been involved in all sorts of clubs, and is currently the vice president of student council. she loves to organize school events, and has a reputation for the best prom ideas. but she also has a reputation for being controlling and a perfectionist when it comes to these events, and anyone who's worked with her knows she has no tolerance for slackers. she's grown to be more tolerant of group projects, but if she wants a job done right, she knows to do it herself. she's clever and charismatic, and constantly proves that she's both beauty and brains.
xxxolive was the replacement.
xxxher parents were much more careful this time, and little olive never strayed far from home. her parents almost homeschooled her all the way through middle school, but when a new family moved to town and she became best friends with their son, they decided that she needed the social experience of a traditional school. so they tearfully sent olive away on her first day, and as the beaming little girl ran into the building they'd once walked, her parents imagined their little boy walking through those doors too.
xxxolive grew up with almost a sibling. elijah blythe, next door, often invited her out to play, asked for help on the math homework, and drew colorful designs on her driveway with chalk. he was the artsy one, the emotional one, and they were inseparable. they were the perfect small town couple, and the parents on the street sat on their porches and drank mimosas and murmured how perfect they'd be together.
xxxwhen they were thirteen, they sat on the driveway at midnight and elijah told olive that he had a big secret. he seemed to count every star in the sky for confidence before he told her that he liked boys. olive didn't see an issue with it- she liked boys too. she smiled a gap-toothed grin and they made a pinky promise to be best friends forever, no matter what.
xxxbut they were sucked into very different worlds in high school. olive still came to cheer him on at games, but his passion for sports often kept him in a different world than her academics-based lifestyle. after a debate club competition in junior year, she was approached by an attractive intern that worked under the mayor. he flattered her, told her that she could have a lucrative future in politics. she had had relationships in the past, short little flings with cute boys, but this college boy had a charm about him that she was curious about. they went and got milkshakes, and the promise of a shining letter of recommendation to the mayor himself had her wrapped around his finger.
xxxnext thing she knew, olive was sitting in city board meetings and applying to ivy leagues to further her prospective career in politics. it was a game, and olive knew how to play.
