Darian Summers

Darian Albert Summers || Dare, D, Summers || 18 || February 14th || Heterosexual || Los Angeles, CA

Personality
Darian is actually pretty quiet and doesn't approach people, he's often approached by others. Many people consider Darian rebellious, but he's way past that stage now. He can sometimes seem cold but if you really warm up to him, he starts feeling better around you. Darian never shares his fears and always acts courageous. He's always trying to push people away, because he doesn't want them to get too close and end up getting hurt by his lies. Darian's lies are a big part of his personality and his life. Sometimes jealousy gets the best of Darian. Darian doesn't take it very well when people accuse him of things, even if he isn't being falsely accused because he knows that he's just going to lie about it. Even if it's become apart of him, he still has that little voice telling him to stop. Darian hates name calling, even if he does it once in a while when he gets very angry. It's kind of a personal past experience.

Darian is a very attractive young man with a great body, he just chooses not to flaunt his 'beauty', unlike other attractive guys his age. Darian also has a very nice voice, but he won't flaunt that either. He's actually not proud of his good singing voice, unlike when he was younger. While Darian may act like he doesn't care about people or just anything in general, he really is caring and kind. Darian's extremely modest and doesn't take compliments very well. He usually just gets really embarrassed and doesn't really have a response, but he knows it definitely means something. There's actually many things that Darian hides under his tough and silent act, like his extremely love for dogs. Darian grew up around dogs of all shapes and sizes and that's one thing in life he didn't regret having, he really likes being around friends or just people in general, no matter how secluded he is, he adores green eyes, no matter how cheesy that may sound and he really likes girls. And he doesn't mean it in a creepy or pervy way at all! He just thinks that they should all be treated likes princesses, even if they're so far from it. See? Darian isn't a complete ass hole, like everyone thinks he is.

All Darian really wants to be happy is someone. However, putting on the tough and silent face he constantly wears, he'd never admit that. No matter how mushy it may sound, he wants someone who cares but he's scared of getting close to someone, because he wouldn't want to hurt them or put them through the hell that he put his grandmother through. Darian's past isn't really something he's proud of, even if he was young. He believes that it influenced his life in a completely negative way. Darian hates it when people call him a monster. It reminds him of old times, and it's just not a good idea unless you want Darian to be in a completely sour mood.

History
When Darian was born, he had parents and they had a whole great future set ahead for him. However, when Darian was two, their house caught on fire and the house burst up into flames. Darian's parents died but Darian survived, as he was playing on the steps of the house when it happened. Darian tried getting inside, but something was blocking the door. Someone down the street told him to get away from the house, so being the little angel he was, he listened. But just as Darian turned his back and started running through the front lawn, the window broke open sending pieces of glass shards into his back and burning his back. Darian woke up in a hospital, and knew something was up by the way the doctor was looking to him. Since Darian was still a boy, and couldn't exactly process what was going on, the doctor just told him that his parents were gone and the weren't coming back. Darian being completely devastated, couldn't even muster up tears. He obviously wasn't ready to accept their death. When his grandmother came to see him, she'd already signed papers that meant he was going to live with her.

After that, Darian became a very sad young boy. He didn't want to hang out with his friends anymore, he didn't want to go outside anymore, he just wanted to stay with his grandmother, stay close to his family, fearing that something would happen in his absence. Of course, we still went to school and what not, but he usually rebelled in school. He got sent to the office almost everyday, 'caused trouble all over the school, broke and stole things, but over all that, his grades were still astounding. The school told him that he could get past his rebelliousness and be a 'good' person. Darian simply responded with,

My parents were good people, that didn't stop to fire from burning.

They couldn't believe that a 7 year old, spoke such mature words. Darian excused himself and left the office.

After a while, they finally called his grandmother. She had a long chat with him, and Darian was somewhat upset that he made his grandmother go through all that. Darian came up with the fattest lie on the spot, and told it to his grandmother. The other boys at school were apparently making him do all these things, otherwise, they'd beat him up. Darian's grandmother wanted to call their parents on them, but Darian said that he'd get hurt even more if she told anyone. Darian's confused grandmother gave Darian a big hug and apologized for ever doubting him. From that point on, Darian decided to be more discreet about the things he did, and started opening up to people more... but you could say that he opened up to the 'wrong crowd'. By the time Darian was 13, he'd been drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana, stealing money and items from people and stores, and many more terrible things. But yet, Darian still got amazing grades. His best friend, Ryan, never understood why Darian worked so hard for good grades, when he was 'bad' anywhere else. After getting beat up and robbed by someone from another school, Darian decided it was time to get stronger... well, after his broken wrist healed. His grandmother questioned what happened and said he fell down the stairs while she was gone. After recovering, Darian decided to start working out. Darian looked grown up for his age, so he could pass for a 15 year old, and he had a fake I.D. Only people ages 14 and up could go to the gym, but Darian didn't want to wait 5 months to start going to the gym. Since the owner was hardly ever there, he just decided to go in. Darian never got busted, so he decided to get his own membership after his birthday.

Darian often got into many fights after he started working out, and he always won. And yes, he definitely got revenge on the person who beat him up, big time. Darian was starting to catch the attention of certain females. Younger, his age, hell. Even older girls had their eyes on him. Darian didn't want to admit it to himself, but he really liked a timid girl. She was so shy and quiet, Darian really wanted to get to know her better. He approached her, but she seemed uneasy when he came by. They both didn't speak very much, but even without words, it was obvious that she was afraid of him. Darian tried saying something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, she excused herself. Darian felt like that would always happen, unless the girls were overly confident. But he discovered that those aren't exactly the kind of girls he's interested in. Darian liked girls that were quiet and shy, like him. So Darian finally discovered that girls were honestly a really amazing thing and it was a miracle to have them around. He knew that if he told anyone that, they'd think he was creepy so he kept his feelings to himself. Darian, however, went through high school not managing to get the shy, nerdy girl and that broke his heart. Especially since she changed so much. She cut her hair and started wearing contacts and makeup. She started wearing a different style of clothing, became much more open. She then approached Darian one day, but she was completely different. Darian stated that he liked her for who she was before, but that 'she's changed', and gave up on her. However, that wasn't a mistake for Darian, it was an experience. He realized that if she could change that much, then so could Darian. He could stop being so bad, and move on with his life. Darian stopped smoking marijuana, stopped stealing and stopped fighting. Darian tried to quit drinking, but it was too hard. So, he only had the occasional drinks here and there.

Darian's grandmother though that he should leave the small town they live in and go to a boarding school. Darian was 15 at the time and absolutely hated this idea, but he didn't argue, knowing that he has put his grandmother through so much and maybe it's time for her to live in peace. Darian put on a smile and lied through his teeth. Saying that he was excited and he thinks it's a great idea. But when Darian got there, he became even more secluded and secretive. He pretty much did his own thing, and ignored the girls that tried to get his attention, even though he secretly admired their confidence and felt flattered.
