CHARACTER PERSONALITY ,
the more we move ahead the more we're stuck in rewind[/color]
STRENGTHS:[/color]
"people say i'm smart, i just don't put my brains to use. i guess that's true, but i don't really care. you can have my brains if you want them. do i really need them? i'm really good at sports. like, exceptionally, and i'm competitive. i'm determined. i mean, really. if i want something, i'm going to get it. specially if it's a girl. i'd definitely call that a strength, wouldn't you? i can hold my own in a fight, and not only that, i usually win most of the fights i'm in. i don't fight all the time or anything like that. but if the opportunity comes along, i won't let it pass by. i'm also confident, and yes, cocky. though some my put that under the category of weaknesses. one thing i forgot to mention, i play the piano. or played. i don't really play much anymore, but i took lessons for quite a few years. and lastly, i'm no light weight. as far as drinking. i can take a lot."
WEAKNESSES:
"what weakness can a guy like me have? some people would call women a weakness. that and alcohol. i also don't like following the rules. and that gets me in trouble quite a bit. but what can i say? that's just who i am. i also have a hard time sitting for long periods of time in class. some of the stuff is just plain boring! it's like hell trying to sit through all those hours of it. i personally wouldn't exactly call this a weakness, but i'm quite arrogant. and i don't mind saying so. flirting is another thing some people have problems with. a lot of people would say i'm shallow, and i also smoke and drink."
LIKES:
"i'm a rule breaker natural, so i guess i like that. i also like girls, a whole lot. especially innocent girls. they're fun to mess around with. i like drinking and smoking, motorcycles, sex, parties, junk food, working out, playing piano, sports, dogs, cars, sleeping, sarcasm, getting my own way, my friends, getting the teachers upset, flirting, teasing, touching girls inappropriately, music, swimming, i like me, lol, freedom."
DISLIKES:
"i don't like my dad, being told what to do, authority of any kind, not getting my own way, school, rules, hangovers, extremely romantic guys, they make me sick, extremely romantic girls, girls you can't get rid of, boredom, liars, though some would say i am one, wannabes, idiots, and i don't like gossip. about me, at least."
FLAWS:
"isn't this kinda like weaknesses? well, i'm not really a nice guy. i'm sarcastic, and if i want to say something i say it. doesn't matter if it may be rude. sometimes i regret that, but it just pops out of my mouth. can't help it. i'm very impatient, especially in class. i have a hard time sitting through all that. i'm not really sure how people do it. i guess i just like being entertained. all the time. i know how to push people's buttons, and i think it's actually pretty fun, but i have to admit. that is a bit of a flaw."
HABITS:
"i bite my nails a lot. some people do it because of their nerves. i just do it when i'm bored. so i do it a lot. they say smoking is a habit so i guess i'll have to include that, and i hum, too, when i'm bored."
SECRETS:
"hey look, it's my secret. can't i keep it? guess not..well, no one knows i play the piano, except my dad. and i don't talk about my past to anyone. if they try going there i avoid it as best i can."
BEST MEMORY:
"my best memory was my seventh birthday. my parents got me a puppy that year. i've loved dogs ever since."
WORST MEMORY:
"not that i really want to talk about it, but i have to say my mom dying beats all."
OVERALL PERSONALITY:
"after all that, you want more? ok, whatever. i'm not a faithful guy. i don't mind having a girlfriend, but chances are i'm gonna cheat on her. even if she's really good in bed. sleeping around is just my thing. i guess you could call it a habit. some girls don't mind that, since they're probably doing the same thing to me. but there are the ones that freak out when they find that i haven't been faithful to them. but what can they expect from a guy like me?
i guess you could call me lazy. unless it's something i really want to do. like sports. but as far as work, i don't care for it one bit. and school. i don't even have a job. don't need to. my dad's got plenty of money for both of us. only he doesn't approve of my current unemployment. but he knows he can't do anything about it. i'm a very proud person. proud of who i am, the money i have, who my family is, and i make no bones about it.
i don't really loose my temper very much. at least not easily. if you say something i don't appreciate i won't go all ninja on you right away. but if you keep going and you won't shut up, i'll get pretty upset. i don't usually get mad at girls. i mean, why would i? the guys are the ones that peeve me off. it takes a little bit to figure out what the right buttons to push for me to get mad at you are. if it's about my dad i don't really care, my mom, i get a little upset, and i don't have any siblings. so mostly i get upset when it's about me. if you hadn't noticed, i'm pretty selfish.
jealous isn't really an issue for me. what have i got to be jealous of? if a girl i'm dating is secretly sleeping with some other guy i don't care. i mean, really. chances are i'm doing the same thing. i use to get jealous when my dad wouldn't pay much attention to me, but i'm long past that. my dad doesn't care about me and i don't care about him. i'll go farther then that. i flat out hate him. i'm just glad i'm in a dorm and i don't have to be around him hardly ever.
i think i mentioned this before, but i really don't care how much i lie. i could lie all day long and still be perfectly content with who i am at the end of the day. i don't like being lied to, though. i know, that's messed up. but that's who i am. you can like it or lump it.
i know i was talking about the whole girlfriend thing earlier, but i just wanted to say something else about love. i think the only person i ever really did love was my mom. i sure as heck never loved my dad, probably because he never loved me. i don't love my friends, and definitely not my girlfriends. unless by love you mean 'i love the sex'."
AND WE'LL BOTH GROW OLD ,
CHARACTER HISTORY ,
well i don't know, i don't know, i don't know, i hope so[/color]
HOMETOWN: buffalo, ny[/size][/font]
PARENTS: nicholas and shannon
SIBLINGS: none
OTHER: none
LIVING SITUATION: dorms
HISTORY:
"i was born on august twenty-fourth in buffalo, new york, to nicholas and shannon montgomery. our good name comes from my dad's side of the family. my mom never had a lot of money, so she married into it. i think both of them loved each other, though. but even if she hadn't loved him, she probably would have married him anyway. before they were married mom lived in orlando. it wasn't hard for dad to convince her to move to buffalo with him, though it was a big change for her. my dad was the owner of the business he'd inherited from my grandfather when he died. they were very rich then, and the business could only grow. and boy did it.
i wasn't born until seven years after they married. they weren't against having kids, at least not my mom, but they'd wanted to wait a while. my mom was happy to finally have a kid, dad however, was not so thrilled. they were always busy with their social life, though dad liked it more then mom did. when i was born, i was just a nuisance to my dad. something that kept him from going to his precious parties. well, sometimes he went even when mom couldn't. my mother is probably the only person on the planet who's ever really loved me. some people said she loved me too much. i've been spoiled my whole life, and when i acted up, she could never raise a hand against me. i guess i didn't appreciate what i had when i had it.
i was extremely popular in school. no doubt because of my name and my parents connections. right off the bat i was good at sports. and school hadn't been such a nuisance back then. though i didn't always like to do it. i usually had good grades, though. i had my first 'girlfriend' when i was seven. she was a cute girl, like most are at that age, though you could tell she'd one day grow into a beauty. her family moved away a year later and i'm not really sure what happened to her.
i was ten years old when my mother died. my parents were celebrating their seventeenth wedding anniversary. they'd sent me off to a babysitter for the night and into the next day. a huge party had been thrown for them and as an anniversary present, dad had bought a really nice boat for mom. everyone was on the boat, and they started drinking. somehow mom fell off, and before anyone realized it she had drowned.
my mother's death had a huge impact on me, and sent me spinning off in all the wrong directions. middle school came along, and by this time i was the best at every sport i played. at least for my age. school, however, was not going so good. and i had a worse attitude then ever before. i started getting into more and more fights, and not really caring what i did or said. i guess i was trying to get my father's attention more then anything else. but it didn't work. he just ignored me more and more. but i didn't stop.
in high school i guess you could say i started straightening out a bit. but not much. i got in less fights, but my grades were still not that great. i was better and sports then ever before. i lost my virginity when i was fifteen, and i started loosing count of the girlfriends. seems i couldn't stick with one. now i'm eighteen and my dad is threatening to send me to boot camp if i don't straighten up. he won't, of course. but he thinks i'll cave if he threatens enough. well that's not going to happen either.

ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE:hayden madisen taylor. that girl had been on jess mariano's mind since they'd met. which had been almost a year now. he'd sat back and watched her date several guys, but never him. since he'd known she hadn't been single. at least not that he knew of. of course, he had his own share of love interests. two girlfriends, and two girls that he'd had only one date with. first, there was blake. who was pregnant when they started dating. he founded out later when she started showing. he was upset at first, since being responsible really wasn't one of his things. but she had the babies, jess had treated them as his own, and then she'd cheated on him. but at least she'd been honest with him when he asked. so they agreed to break up but still be friends. they barely talked now, but they were far from enemies. then there had been izzi. jess had been smitten with her, but things just didn't work out. and then came camille, again. they'd had a history together, broken up, remained friends, and both thought that there might still be something there. but like the fist time, things jut didn't workout. after breaking up a second time, jess met jessica, saved her life, actually. he even took a bullet in the chest for her. but things never really clicked with them either. and that had been a few months ago. all that in just a little over one year. and all that time hayden had been in the back of his mind. he'd almost kissed her once. wanted to badly, but hadn't. for the good of both of them. they'd both been in relationships at the time, and as far as he knew, she still was.
though she'd been on his mind all this time, it made it worse not having a girlfriend. because now there was no one else to think about but her. jess, though he liked to flirt with other girls, only had one crush right now. and obviously, that was hayden. did she know it? he doubted it. since he'd never let on. at least, he hoped not. or maybe that was a good thing. jess didn't know. since not having a girlfriend, he'd been very bored. and exceptionally in the mood to start trouble. he didn't really have anything else to do in his spare time. mostly he'd picked fights, and won them, except for a few here and there. and recently he'd spray painted a big section of the front of the school. jess was immediately their number one suspect, but they had no proof. at least not yet. yeah, jess still had some maturing to do, but that was jess.
jess had also been driving the teacher crazy lately in class. passing notes, laughing or interrupting when the teacher was talking, making paper planes and throwing them at teachers or students, cracking jokes or making faces when the teacher's back was turned. and that made the other students laugh. and that was why he was heading there now. it was a familiar place by now, and jess kinda liked going there, because he got out of class for a while. and he liked getting under the teachers and the principles skin. it was fun, at least for him. principle terri wasn't as scary as some of the people attending new york high thought. specially the freshmen. he enjoyed telling them stories about how mean she was. as jess strolled in, he was surprised to see who was sitting there. the least likely of all, hayden. course, she probably wasn't in trouble. but still, he hadn't expected to see her here of all places. he took a seat in the chair beside her. hayden was breath taking as usual. and that was partly why he didn't say anything till she spoke to him. jess smiled is crooked smile when she looked up and chuckled with her. he shrugged. "that depends." jess usually didn't mind visiting the principle, but the fact that hayden was here made him happy. better then being in class. "so what brings you here? get in a cat fight with one of the diva's on your cheer leading squad?" he asked with a grin. though that could have been possible last year, jess knew it would never happen now. hayden had changed a lot since they'd met. and if there had been a fight, it probably wouldn't have been hayden's fault.credit: format by lainey, lyrics by modest mouse
