`YOU STOLE MY HEART THEN YOU KICKED IT ASIDE!
DISLIKES people who judge, prudes, boredom, "lame" parties, people who aren't worth his time, feeling helpless, people trying to lash back at him, people who think they can beat him at.. anything, rules, expectations, nosy people, losing, bland clothing, not looking his best, being ignored, being quiet, actually having a crush on someone, clingy people, people who think he'll actually go for a serious relationship, boring music, STD's, clingy people, scene kids, stereotypes.
FEARS death, being alone, that someone will get through to him.
SECRETS he's scared to death of relationships, he doesn't trust people, he blames himself for the death of his best friend, he lashes out first so people can't hurt him, he wants to keep people out, secretly he's broken up inside, he just wants someone to really want to break down his walls and love him.
OVERALL PERSONALITY[/b] it's really funny to see freddie with his other siblings, because they're all so different. next to maddox, he's extremely loud, and he likes to be that way. he has a strong, honey-hued voice that carries well over noise, and he uses his voice whenver he can. he's loud, and he can also get very whiney when the situation occurs. if he doesn't get what he wants, when he wants, it gets naggy and his tone becomes rather annoying. he does this a lot around his parents more than around his friends, but it's there. he's a very demanding person, which has definitely become a part of his personality. he expects a lot of the people around him, and when they don't deliver he gets extremely angry at them.
one of the core values of freddie's personality is his selfishness. he's extremely self-centered, only worrying about himeslf and things that will affect his well-being. he wants the best for him, and he's the most importan person in his life. he could give a damn about anyone else around him, and he won't hesitate to leave them behind if he gets an opportunity. if he knows something will benefit him but won't help his friends out, he'll do it anyway. if he's out at a party and offered a ride, he leaves his "friends" stranded and goes home. he's almost always talking about himself, and complaining how things aren't just right for him, and only him. this characteristic can be rather obnoxious, but you get used to it. some people find it attractive, that a person's main interest is themselves - it's kind of like self-preservation.
usually boys hate to be called vain, but that's the perfect way to describe fred. his looks come first, all the time. if his hair isn't perfect or he's got a little bit of a breakout, he stays home from school to avoid people seeing him when he's not in all his glory. he prides himself in being handsome, and does whatever he can to enhance this part of himself. he talks about how good-looking he is a lot of the time. he's the type of guy who a girl will say "you're hot" to, and he'll respond with "oh i know, aren't i?" he knows he's good-looking, and he'll use it to get whatever he wants. in this sense, he's rather manipulative and conniving. it's a lost cause when it comes to this, honestly freddie could spend more time than a girl on his appearance. when he passes a mirror, he makes sure to stop and check himself out - this is basically all the time, and he does it without shame. people can only be jealous, or at least that's what he thinks.
over the years, fred has learned the ropes in high school and he knows the best way to acheive his means. it doesn't matter what he does to get what he wants, he'll do it gladly and he won't back down when someone challeges him. so what if someone's feelings got hurt? so what if he crushed someone? that means they're not cut out for life, to freddie. if you ever do cross him, you'll regret that day with every fiber in your being. instead of outright confronting you and beating you down, he'll get under your skin, find out your secrets, backstab you, and then have it all laid out in front of everyone to embarass you, and all before you can even say anything to stop it. his schemes have gotten him very far in the social ladder and helped establish his well-known reputation.
along the way, he developed a very stubborn side. if someone tells him to do something, he won't. he hates being directed, and he only allows that in school when he has to do assignments or whatever, and even then he won't do work if he doesn't feel like it. he'd rather do things his own way, as he's very independant and self-sufficient. if he believes in something, he won't budge no matter what you say. for example, he's perpetually angry at himself and thinks that should never change no matter what you say to him. he's worse than a mule, or so his parents stay. once he decides on a course of action, he goes all the way through with it and doesn't have a conscience because he's sure of what he's doing. he has a very one-track mind when it comes to getting things accomplished.
he's totally full of energy all the time, and he can bust a move on short notice. he's one of those guys who'll dance in the hallway if he wants to, just because he has so much extra energy filled in his body. it's almost as if he's continuously drinking red-bull, when in fact he's not a fan of the drink. he's always the life of a party, with all eyes on him because he's got such a commanding presence, when he's around, people just can't help but look at him. this presence translates to whenever he's on stage singing or playing guitar - he's a performer, and he knows how to put a god show on. because of this, you can definitley say that he's learned how to put a mask on and hide his deepest emotions. anyone who tries to pry and learn more about him will end up in a lot of pain.
he likes to project the image that he's the cool guy, you know? he's the player, the one that goes through school and knows that everyone's eyes are on him. when you walk up to him, if he decides you're worthy enough to talk to him it's usually a very relaxed conversation. he doesn't find the need to be hyperactive unless there's a reason for it. other than that, he's rather quiet and maybe even serious. freddie's toned down his smile so that it only really appears around people he loves, or if he honestly finds something funny. getting him to give you more than an arrogant smirk is hard to do, i'll be honest. he tends to get annoyed easily with people for small things, and it's obvious when he's irritated. he just keeps himself rather distant, never choosing to make close friends unless they make an impression on him.
now there's no sugar-coating it, freddie is by nature a very aggressive person. he hasn't always been this way, it just developed over time. he'll lash out first before you have the chance to hurt him, and part of it is fear but he'd never let anyone know that. he challenges people in mean ways, but doesn't care if he hurts them. that's the least thing he worries about, people's feelings. he tackles things head on and never looks back, plowing through life with a recklessness that alarms some people. he's one to instigate fights and when you talk to him, it's not like he's shouting or anything. he just says very mean, provoking things that can get you worked up rather quickly. besides being aggressive, he's also got a horrible temper that he harbors. it doesn't come out a lot, but when freddie gets mad he doesn't even know what to do. he works on controlling it, but when it does get out of hand he can't stop.
freddie is a very flirtatious person. he knows he's good looking and besides just flaunting it, he flirts with almost anything that breathes. he doesn't need to use lame pick up lines or whatever, he just comes up to someone and his confidence does the rest for him. you could call him touchy-feely, but he uses his body a lot to flirt; touching, small kisses, brushing up against people.. he loves to do all of that, and he really likes to get people turned on. with that, he's an extremely sexual person. he talks about sex easily, and he does have sex whenever he wants to. he doesn't really care for relationships, so it's mostly sex sex sex. people might think he's too graphic for them, but he's suggestive in almost every conversation and finds a way to twist people's words so they sound dirty. prudish people irritate him, because who are they to act like they're above sex? if he finds someone like that, he makes sure that their lives are miserable when he's around.
he watches a lot of comedy specials like SNL, and late night talk shows, so he's quite the funny person. ever since he was younger, he's been telling jokes and trying to get people to laugh. sometimes he'll do it on the expense of others, but freddie loves to joke around. he's always got a clever or witty remark that can get people to cry from laughter, and he enjoys doing that. freddie doesn't do jokes and stuff on command, but when they occur to him he'll say them randomly. he also does a lot of crazy shit that people find hilarious, but that's just a part of who he is. he's crazy, and through his insanity you can see how hilarious he really is. he'll go pretty far for a laugh, i'll tell you that much.
this may be a negative part of his personality, but freddy is a dare-devil to the core. it started with truth or dare in elementary, and then it just built up to a larger scale. he never backs down from a dare, and he'll do anything just for the thrill of it. sometimes he's gotten rather sick from too many shots or alcohol mixed with drugs, but most of the time he loves to do dangerous things. it's like an adrenaline rush, almost as if he's addicted to it. he plays truth or dare at parties now, but it's intense truth or dare, the kind where you're to do a sexual act in front of everyone, or whatever. he really doesn't give a damn, he'll do it just to prove that he can. his favorite game is strip poker, and he'll play without hesitation. he also likes to take risks, even if his life is at stake. it's just a part of his nature. his brothers call him 'danger' as a nickname, because of his blatant disregard for his health and his tendency to get into messes.
this is probably the most defining characteristic of the young man. he's the biggest asshole you'll ever come across. he's just plain arrogant, and he likes to make people feel inferior to him. in his mind, he doesn't have an equal - he's the top of the ladder. he thinks he's the best at everything, and he makes no secret of this. his arrogance is another thing that annoys people, but some people, again, find it attractive. if he doesn't like you, he'll swing by and say the nastiest things just to ruin your day. freddie's a horrible person to have as an enemy, because he's naturally snobby in the first place. he's also a smart ass with his comments, always saying things that make teachers angry in class, or being very cruel and clippy with his peers. as it is, freddie shouldn't have any friends for acting as if he's better than anyone, but he's compelling enough that people keep coming back for more.
his outgoing nature causes him to be a bit of a leader. he takes on student leadership roles without fear, making great speeches that are funny and cynical. he's not afraid of anything on the surface, his deepest fears never come out in the day-to-day. this makes freddie a very brave person, and he doesn't have a single shy fiber in his body. he'll come out and do what everyone else doesn't want to, that's the kind of person that he is. people follow him because he makes such a good authority figure. he seems like a good student, involved in sports and clubs, but kids look at him differently 'cause they know what he's done on the weekends. freddie takes pride in being a leader and actually loves to be on stage, where he's guaranteed to be the center of attention.
blunt. fred is very, very blunt. he's honest to a fault and will say exactly what's on his mind, with no censoring at all. i mean he does kind of have a conscience, but really he doesn't care about people. he's the best anyway, so why worry about the rest of them? he's straightforward when you ask him a question and says things without shame, like his drinking and partying and sex habits. again, this should repulse people, but for some odd reason they like it. it's hard to find such open honesty in people, but he strongly believes that telling lies isn't the way to get anywhere. freddie gets from point A to point B in the quickest way possible, so why go around the bush by telling lies and that shit? in a way, this is a good thing - you can go to freddie (if he'll talk to you even) and know that he'll always tell you the truth. however, he does have his own secrets, things that he doesn't talk about and refuses to mention. some of his personal life is under wraps and when people try to pry, he gets extremely pissed off.
underneath it all, he was raised just like his brothers, under the same roof. this up bringing has definitely influenced the person that freddie is, whether that's obvious or not. he's loyal to a fault once he accepts you, and he'd never leave you no matter what. he can be the sweetest boy, but that's hidden under many, many layers. usually the word 'tender' or 'romantic' aren't associated with him, but freddie has those abilities if you can reach them. he's quite open minded and artistic, which has become an integral part of his personality. he's easygoing in the sense that he bends when the wind blows and rolls with the punches. nothing can phase him that badly. you could call him a free-spirit, and that's how he thinks of himself. freddie hates to be tied down to things, and commitment is the last on his list. he just can't imagine having a restriction to just one person, when there's so much more out there. in his mind, if he's gonna be in a relationship then that person better be damn worth it. he's really not as bad as he's cracked up to be, but not many people see that.
OVERALL APPEARANCE[/b] his hair is his pride and joy, and he takes care of it religiously. it's definitely inherited from both parents, because his father has straighter, almost wavy hair, while his mother has thick curls. freddie ended up with waving, messy dark locks that curl slightly at the nape of his neck when he lets it grow out. it's always shiny and healthy looking, and he does everything in his power to keep it that way. on the occasion, he's been known to completely flat-iron his hair, but it isn't often anymore; he used to have an obsession with straight hair when he was a sophomore, but eventually he grew out of it. freddie loves his natural hair and will often leave it to dry as it is, but if he thinks it'll frizz he dutifully applies product. he also enjoys it when people run their hands through his hair in the heat of the moment. he likes hats, and all different kinds - beanies, bowler's caps, fedora's.. the more classic, the more likely he is to wear it. he's been known to stay at home from school if he's suffering a particularly bad hair day.
freddie's eyes rest between two thick eyebrows that he trims, but never cuts down in size. he doesn't watn to look any girlier than he does, even though he doesn't believe himself to be feminine. his eyes are well-set into his face, accentuating his high cheekbones and sitting well against his lightly olive complexion. his eyes are inherited from his mom's side of the family, even though she has dark eyes. freddie's eyes are a light brown, almost scintillating hazel in the light. they're framed by curling dark lashes that most girls have to wear mascara for, but he doesn't like to draw attention to that fact. his eyes are expressive, and show a range of emotions when he wants them too. he's become a good artist and can wear a mask when necessary, but other than that you could practically hear or read the emotions heavy in his eyes. they're one of his best features, according to his mom.
the only reason that freddie's body doesn't match his "pretty-boy" face is his obsesion with the gym. he has to go and work out for at least an hour, or an hour and a half if he really wants to. he thinks that being toned is probably the best thing you could do for yourself - he encourages his family to work out, and gets frustrated when they blow him off. freddie finds physical fitness to be really important, and he works out every single day. his arms are very buff and muscular, which makes his shoulders slightly broad as well. his hands are strong and the veins in them protrude a little when he's moving them; these veins run all the way up his arms, too. he also has a strong vein in his neck that comes up when he's singing really loudly. the sort. overall, he's very proud of the physique he's managed to get, and he plans on keeping it. it helps him attract people, and being toned helps during sex, doesn't it?
now, unlike all those emo or scene kids, this young man has very muscular legs. it's come from years of training and working out, and they're rather well-shaped and obviously toned. they come in handy when he goes out for a run or whatever, and he rather likes them because it shows that he works out quite a bit. this being said, freddie wears tight pants a lot of the time to show off what he's got, or so he thinks. the pants cling to his thighs and then to his "package" - it's rather hard not to notice it, since the pants are so tight, and he does this on purpose. i suppose you could say he has a rather shapely backside too, although that's not what he focuses on when he works out. it's not girly or huge, but you can tell he keeps himself fit from the front and the back. freddie inherited his father's feet, that's for sure. neither of his parents have large feet anyway, so that could be a factor in his own shoe size. he's got medium-sized feet for a guy, which could be considered on the small size compared to many of the guys he knows.
his stomach and abdominal area are his pride and joy, and he makes sure to flaunt them when he can. since he started working out, he's developed a rather defined pair of abs that you can feel if you touch his stomach. he spends a lot of time working out this area of his body, because he knows that when he goes to a pool or something this is the thing that can get him hook-ups and admiring stares. freddie goes shirtless whenever he can, just to show off this part of his body - if he can't go shirtless, he wears muscle shirts or wife beaters. freddie's pleased with the way his stomach and abs have turned out, and it's one of the compliments that he most often receives from his flings or partners as they're touching and kissing. it's nice to trail your hands down a six pack, right? he eats a lot, but he makes sure it's all nutritious or organic so he can keep his shape..
when it comes to clothing style, freddie is rather eccentric. he likes to find the things that people wouldn't ever wear, and then come to school in them. this means frequent raids of the vintage store, and experimenting with new things. he likes scarves, vests, and button-down shirts a lot. his style ranges a lot - one day he'll be looking all fancy and sharp, and the next day he'll come in with a vintage t-shirt and some obnoxiously bright green shoes. freddie loves him some shoes, and he spends a lot of money to get the strangest colored sneakers and things of that nature. he also likes those really classy dress shoes from different era's, that's his favorite. another thing he loves is sunglasses; he considers them an important accessory and drops tons of money on the best kinds. designer brands are important to him, but he's not a stickler for that kind of stuff - he just likes to look nice. most sunglasses fit his face type very well anyway, so it's not a hassle shopping for them. i guess you couldn't put his clothing style into one definitive class, and he likes it that way.
HISTORY[/b] it all started one day in December when Denise Cavalini was singing for the church choir and teaching the group a new song. she played piano really well and had a beautiful voice, but it was just like any other sunday morning. there was snow on the ground of trenton, new jersey, and the christmas spirit was starting to hang in the air. denise wasn't expecting anything as she walked out of the church after service was over. she had no idea that one young man in particular had been admiring her the entire service and was now waiting for her so he could ask her out to dinner.
she thought it would be like any other day, but she was wrong. the moment she laid eyes on paul clarke, there was a connection. they talked as if they'd known each other all their lives and of course, paul asked her out on a date. after that night, the two were inseperable. their faith kept them together, and so did their common interests - they both loved music. it didn't take much for these two lovely, sweet people to get married and start a family. they were wed in trenton, where both of their happy families attended the ceremony, but then they decided that they wanted a more quiet area to move their family too. plus, paul wanted a location that would only be a half-hour or an hour's drive from new york city so he could continue his job as a music writer and composer. they bought a lovely little house in wyckoff new jersey and settled in.
this is where frederick mercury clarke was born, second child after his eldest brother ---- ----- clarke. his parents had given him his name as a tribute for the great performer freddie mercury, and it seemed to fit him perfectly. from the moment he was born, fred was a little spitfire. he was always crying, a very loud baby whom his parents doted on and loved. they were so proud of him and loved him to death, as the second child, they also tended to treat him as the "baby" of the family and were nervous that they would coddle him too much. from a young age, freddie was an entertainer, telling jokes to make people laugh and doing "performances" on holidays, upon request. there are countless video tapes of these adorable moments.
of course, dazzling little freddie was not thrilled when his youngest sibling was born. it meant that he wasn't going to be the center of attention any more, because he was no longer the baby. for about two weeks he was very crabby and immature about it, but then he realized that it would be nice to have someone to play with. they grew up in sync, with the eldest clarke talented in guitar, the youngest excelling at all things musical, and freddie shining on the stage with his strong voice and electric presence. everything was going just well for the little family.
a few years latter, finances were piling up or the clarke family and freddie could feel it. it was around his sophomore year that he started getting involved in crazy shit, and his jackass personality started to form. with every girl he got with and every dare he accomplished, his ego swelled. he became known as good-looking, witty, and quite the asshole - that translated to a bad-ass, and girls digged that. freddie lost his virginity in freshman year so sleeping around wasn't a problem, but now he'd started to experiment with guys as well. anything to get a good feeling, that was what he was all about. the parties started to come and he would get wasted, trashed, doing drugs and alcohol and partying, unashamed of the sexual acts he performed.
he had a best friend growing up in wyckoff, named franklin rowling. the two were infamous as a pair, known as freddy and frankie - their names even went together well. fred thought of frank as his brother even, and they were almost always together through thick and thin. this meant all the crazy shit as well, and both of them were known for their antics. freddie told everything to frankie, and he would trust his friend with his life. he always thought that they'd be together, that nothing coudl break their strong friendship. they would do anything for each other, and no one would dare come between them.. right? nothing could separate them, and freddie was sure of that.
the only thing that permanently severed their bond was frankie's death.
it was a cold day in october and the "crew" went out on a road trip to a local cliff area, where there was plenty of clear water and beautiful scenery. they weren't going to camp or just to hang out there, no - they were going to cliff-dive. it was a very dangerous "sport", but the boys had done it before and all of them loved the adrenaline rush that they got from doing this precarious act. the group all stopped at about halfway up the large cliff, but that wasn't far enough for the dare-devil pair of freddie and frankie. they wanted to go all the way to the top and see if they could survive the fall. i mean, of course they could, couldn't they? what were the odds that the height would actually hurt them? with that attitude, they clambered up to the top and looked down.
it was the biggest drop that they'd ever seen. freddie remembers the sinking, twisting feeling in the pit of his stomach that he felt, and the odd thumping of his heart just at the prospect of jumping. the moment has been engrained in his mind forever: frankie turned to him with his green eyes and asked, "should i do it bro? i don't know if i'll make it." freddie had to think about it for a while, but then he flashed him an encouraging smile and pat his back. "yeah you can do it, man, i believe in you." with that, frankie took a deep breath and jumped off, and freddie waited to see the outcome of the leap. he waited, and waited, and waited, but there was no sign that frankie had come out of the water.
franklin walter rowling never resurfaced.
everyone in wyckoff was devestated by this tragedy. freddie became so depressed that he stopped eating, stopped functioning. he didn't do anything except sit in his room and cry, maybe break a few things and then lay on his bed and burn in agony. this was all his fault, if he hadn't have told his friend to jump than this would have never happened to him. he just blamed himself, spiralling so deep into his depression that his parents feared for his well-being. nothing mattered to freddie anymore, now that his best friend was gone. after about a month, he collected himself and went back to school. it was the hardest day of his entire life, waking up and knowing he'd have to face everyone without frank at his side.
school felt so wrong. when he went up to their group of "friends", they all shunned him because he'd been away for so long. he was so mopey and hurt and sensitive still that they didn't give a rat's ass about him. if he wasn't the loud, asshole freddie they liked to be around, then who needed him? he was like a wet towel, as far as they were concerned. when they turned their back on him, freddie was completely destroyed. it was at this time, at his weakest moment, that he promised that he would never again trust anyone. he'd never let them in, and he would never give someone all the trust that he'd given frankie. why do that when everyone would leave you in the end? his trust in people has been damaged almost completely, as well as his belief in any strong relationships.
after this trauma, they had to move to a smaller town in order to afford all the piling bills. paul chose ridgewood because he'd heard good things about it, so the clarke family packed up and moved to the quaint little area that was a bit out of the way from wyckoff. freddie was actually glad for the move - he could leave all his past behind and start over new, with a chance to re-invent himself. when they arrived in ridgewood, it was freddie's junior year. he was still a little closed off and sensitive due to what had just happened, but over time he's built himself up to be the worst of his personality. he was already a jackass, a moron, a partier and very arrogant and vain, but he took these things to the next level. by the end of the year, everyone knew his name, and that was the way he liked it.
he spent a lot of his summer drinking and partying and doing drugs. and then of course, there was the sex. he had loads of sex, and that was great to him. he harbors his secret well when it comes to what happened to him, and so far no one knows. now it's about winter of freddie's senior year and he's going to leave with a bang. he wants to do everything he possibly can, and thensome. there's nothing that he won't do, really, so it'll be interesting to see what will happen to him. freddie's not open to make friends but there are the certain few that have managed to wriggle through the small holes in his armor and make him smile - these are the people he'd do anything for. other than that, he's just the same old freddie with a secret: bitchy, loud, rude, arrogant, and ready to make a scene. he decided to attend college in canada, so that's why he's here, for his first year. it'll be something to remember, surely.[/ul]
