Why they are in La Campana: He was tired of his family and their shit and simply wanted to get away from everything, he had started over so many times why not do it again? So in the summer before his junior year he found this school and got a job, working hard to raise money to fly himself to Spain and pay for boarding. He’s parents had no warning till the day before he left and they didn’t stop him, hoping this ‘trip’ would teach him more life lessons (like he needs any more) and help him get over his ‘phase’.

Appearance:
Dustin is a rather strange boy. For a boy he’s rather small and almost frail looking. He has a small body being only the height of 5’2 but his arms are long and thin as is the rest of his body. He’s rather underweight and has trouble gaining weight, no matter how much he eats (Quite the glutton he is) and even his skin in rather very pale. His eyes are a deep blue but if one looks close near the pupil that is a deep ring of green and near the outer rim of the eye there are soft shades of grey. His face is rather strange as well seeing as it’s slim like a girls, even having a small girl like nose and mouth. 9Something he curses often). His hair was naturally blonde but over the years had darken and now is almost a soft brown and bright days seems caramel, dim days it can look deep brown really he just thought it was a very dark dirty blonde or caramel. It is styled so it frames his face slightly, the right side having bangs the cover his right eye and the ends falling to his shoulders. It’s rather soft but often has a messy affect to it. Dustin often wore very strange clothes, loose but comfy usually spotting some kind of imperfection such as a rip, paint splatter or the likes. Bright clothes are his favorite, as are farmer-style shirts as he called them. When he was younger
Personality:
Dustin is a rather complex person to say the least. There are many things about him that seem hard to understand but if people took the change to actually look he’s really not that bad. When first meeting people Dustin tends to be shy so he wears a mask of a blank face with a slight frown and when people speak to him he gives a slight look but a rather distant one, then he usually wont answer and go back to the book he most likely has. This mask is really him being shy but the way he acts makes it seem like he’s either 1) Bastard or 2) A mute. Now people who can get past this mask soon realize they are quite wrong about Dustin. Underneath the shy mask is a whole another child. Really he’s very friendly and rather upbeat. He’s very caring, sometimes even towards strangers. He trusts people very easily and very easy to laugh but at times a bit of an air-head. He’s a deep thinker, always thinking. Something’s always on his mind, something always going on whether it be a new story-plot, thoughts on his new book his reading or thoughts about the person he’s speaking to. Many of his thoughts he never speaks for his too scared to speak his mind. But he does sometimes. If someone messes with a friend well, they certain get a piece of his mind as well as a list of curses they never imagined. Dustin treats his friends like gods always putting them way before of his-self. He would take a hit for a friend (literally), take blame for their crimes, switches their names on tests so they get the higher grade and even defy his entire family just to see them. Among the sweetness that is also a dark side. His lust. Despite being such a rather innocent seeming child his lust is something to wonder about. Temptation is like a drug to him and though he can be very impulsive his self-control on his lust is almost uncanning. Many times his held himself back from doing stupid things that would screw him over. This leads to him being a flirt (but only with those he knows) Though there are times when he is very openly affectionate (in his old town where he didn’t give a shit what people thought). All in all Dustin can be a very sweet and almost ‘cuddly’ type person though his irritation is quick to trigger. It’s very had to actually get him ‘mad’ ‘pissed’ no but ‘anger’ pure ‘anger’ is something many haven’t pulled from him. At one point in life Dustin had almost lost everything and during that time he lost a part of himself and almost ended it all. Since then he’s seen life in a new light and now he lives with a light step and no longer a huge chip on his shoulder. A weight was lifted and he seemed to be very optimistic these days.

History: *Half-sister from father
Birth
How to explain? Dustin was a crack baby to say the least. When Angel was pregnant well she had been on every drug and it’s knockoff. Hell who knows haw fucked up she was during the labor but either way the baby was due to have some issues. Dustin was born, the only child to Scott but Angel had several with others. The parents split and Scott took Dustin. He stayed with his father till he was barely one then CPS took him away and dropped him into new hands, of his grandparents. His grandparents were very sweet and raised him very well. He learn many things like how to clean (grandmother doing) How to shoot (Grandfather) Garden (Grandmother) Ride on a freight train and got to hang in the control room (Grandfather) and got to take daily ride sin the fire painted hot red (Grandfather who got punished by grandmother later since he went over 100 and there was seat-belt). Things didn’t last there either. When he turned 5 his grandparents got a notice stating they couldn’t afford their property and had to move. They couldn’t support the child any longer. They had no idea what to do so Scott who was still talking to his parents from jail offered his older sister Tammy.

Dustin was shipped from sunny California to New York. The city was amazing, all the tall building was different from the farm-like area he was use to. But they didn’t stay int eh city they went to a more suburb area with many trees and tiny cottage-styled houses. Stony Brook a very old town that was like a fairy-tale book (Which he loved very much). He moved in his with Aunt Tammy, Uncle keith and three older boy cousins who soon after a court date became his brother and aunt and uncle his mother and father. Life was strange, scary and Dustin felt lost, but only for a time. When the school year started they didn’t wait to ship him off to the school bus. Dustin was scared, trying everything to stay home (he even his huge bunnie plushie in bed and hid in the closet). Things took a turn at that bus stop. A young boy walked up and saw the scared one and instantly started to talk to him, complaining about having to get up and how he’d rather be playing video games. That made Dustin perk up. He loved Video games. Soon the two were talking and Dustin was in awe as he watched the other play his GameBoy color. Dustin loved video games but was too poor to own a system. The boys name was Dan, he lived around the corner and offered Dustin to come over and play. That day started their friendship, the first one Dustin ever had. They hung out everyday on the bus, walked to each others houses and things were wonderful. When ever his ‘mother’ would get drunk and start yelling Dustin would climb out his window an run to Dan’s who’s mother would let him spend the night. The guest room even had a handful of his clothes with how often he slept over. No one knew Tammy and Keith were alcoholics. No one cared, certainly not CPS. Genie did though, his grandfather. He came over often, bring Dustin gifts and toys and the likes. (His grandfather got him addicted to Sardines and Kit-Kats, though not together!). To the young boy nothing seemed wrong with his life other then the adults liked to yell.
Six
God rule the day Dustin went to first grade. Lord help the world really. This was the year he met the three who changed his life forever. It started with a small girl coming up to him, her curly hair and glasses boucing as she ran around then nearly tackled Dustin, asking why he was sitting alone. Dustin, scared out of his mind simply shrugged. Not pleased the girl forced him to stand and dragging him towards the group of kids. There another girl with in infamous long pony tail was kicking a ball around then smiled at him. He said nothing. Till the small one demanded he play with them. Too scared to argue he agreed. By the end of the day he was practically in pain from laughing too much and running around so much. The small one was a little smartie named Amanda the taller pony-tail was fighting-spirit Victoria. He made two new friends. Later that year they joined an art class and the day was marked forever in his heart. Sitting at a desk he had a blank piece of paper, telling the teacher it was a ‘polar bear in a snowstorm’ the teacher scolded him. Then he used a plastic ruler, bending it back and flung a crayon into the teachers afro. He was sent to the corner. Soon a girl took the seat next to him, pouting. Dustinstared but didn’t speak but she did, asking what he did. When he told She burst out laughing, admitting a kid hit her with a paint brush so she dumped paint on him. The two started laughing so hard they got in trouble again. Her name was Addie. Those three changed his life forever.
Seven
His ‘father’ was gone. For good. He had raised a hand and stuck Dustin when drunk. That afternoon Dan showed up, demanding Dustin sleep-over. When he got to Dan’s there was several cops. Dustin was horrified and tried to hid but Dan forced the shaking boy to talk to them. He answered them quietly, Dan’s mother at his side holding his hand, Dan on his other side watching the cops carefully. After a night of questions Dustin stayed the night. Two gaurds were at the door so when his mother came they wouldn’t let her in. She was cursing in a slur drunk voice. Dustin started crying. Dan came in and stayed with Dustin the whole night, holding him. Turned out cause of how small the neighborhood was Dan could hear his mother screaming at Dustins father and when Dustins father came outside and shoved a ladder off the porch it made such a loud bang several neightbors complained to Dan’s mother. Then the startled Cry from Dustin when his father hit him and he too almost fell off the porch made Dan’s grandmother quickly call 911. Dustin never saw his father again. He never forgot the day either, or how deeply he was grateful.
Eight
Tammy got a new boy-friend. He lived in New York city. The night after Christmas Tammy took some of the presents and put them in a box and went to train station, in her drunken state dragging Dustin with her. He refused to get on the train. He didn’t like the boyfriend he was scary, always staring at Dustin like he was some bug then a moment later ruffling his hair saying what a good boy he was for coming and then telling him to go take a walk so he and his mother could talk. He knew better, they were screwing. Dustin wasn’t stupid. But that night, Dusting refused. Angry his mother cursed at him, telling him to og home. So he did. Leaving his mother did Box of stolen gifts and the umbrella the 8 year old boy headed home, through the heavy rainfall at 1 am. He had been walking for a while before a car pulled up. Scared he stood his ground, watching the window roll down. When a man lend out and asked what a kid was doing out he did what Addie taught him. He held up his middle finger and said ‘Fuck off dick’ then tried to run. He didn’t get far. A moment later a woman grabbed him. He struggled and struggled tell the woman said she was a cop. Dustin froze, terrified. They had gotten off duty and were heading for some food. They placed him in the abck of the car and asked where his home was. Nothing. When the man asked where Dustin learned that and he said his friend both started laughing. Then they asked his name. when he said ‘O’Warx’ both stared at the soaked child, taking a moment before realizing it really was Dusting, the adopted child of the town misfit family. A few moments later Dustin was taken home. At 2 am Cody answered the door to find two cops and Dustin. If it wasn’t such a crappy situation Dustin would have wished for a picture of his brother, almost fainting.
Too much, simply too much. That’s what Cody said. This house was too fucking much and he couldn’t take it anymore. Dustin was worried. Many times Cody up and left but came back three days later. One day after school Dustin came home and went into Codys room to give his eldest brother a gift he made in art, to make him feel better. The room was bare, nothing not even in the closet. Cody was gone.
Cody wasn't the only one to leave. Three months later Tammy had to go to a rehab one far away. This time Cody wasn't here to take care of Dustin and his other two 'siblings' were in college. He was alone so Tammy dumped him on two family friends Kathy and Gary. This was the best thing that ever happened to him. Gary was a teacher at a school and every night would tell Dustin stories about his students. During the day Kathy would teach Dustin how to garden, cook and other house-wife things. Life was amazing. For his birthday they took him to the mountains and he went fishing and canoeing and got to live like a real-mountain man. They were great and so kind. They let Addie come over every-day which his family never did. This was also the year he had Mr. Alu as a teacher. The young 22 year old teacher who let kids do what they wanted. He was very kind, patient and put up with the kids even if it did take 3 Tylenols a day. It was the best time of his life. But it didn't last. By the end of the year Kathy's daughter got pregnant and had finally had the baby. Now her mother was going to let the daughter move in with her child. There was no room for Dustin, once again he was tossed.
Ten
From the best to the worst. Dustin adored time at Ed and Kathys but now he was going through the worst time of his life. He was dumped on his eldest brother Cody who was renting a basement apartment from the people he baby-sat for. Him and his brother could only be in the same room for five minutes without Dustin accidentally saying something wrong and Cody flipping on him. They were ice and Heat, they didn't mix and when they did it brought water aka tears for the both of them. The only times they got along was very late at night, when their land-lords were out (usually most Fridays and the kids they sat went with the parents). Cody would turn the music all the way up and starting then dancing in a quirky nerdy way. Dustin, embarrassed and horrified would try to run away but Cody would give chase and they would run around the house before falling on the futon, laughing till it hurt. Another was spring cleaning. They would pull everything they owned out but instead of cleaning they would wind up talking about the memories they shared with the objects.
This was the year Dustin had his three girl-friends in class as well as Dan it was great. (though he and Dan haven’t spoken in almost a year since Dan got new friends ) That is if the teacher wasn't a witch. Mr. Mancuso, evil as they come. The witchy old bat had some grudge against Dustin's brother so since she couldn't take her anger out on Cody, she took it out on Dustin. She failed him every test, threw away the projects he turned in, forced him to sit in the back of the room, ignored the boy when he asked for help. The towards the middle of the year things got bad.
Genie died. Genie, the only man who was like a father had left the world, leaving him alone. That night Dusin held Cody, letting the older cry on him. Genie had been with Cody since he was a baby. He knew the pain. Dustin didn't cry, not once. But that night something died within him too.
At school he stopped fighting back. He didn't scream when kids would shove him in the large cupboard and lock him in, He didn't fight when the teacher would make him sit in the hall for hours or the whole day. He didn't speak to friends, to family to anyone. He only came out of his room to eat after Cody had gone to sleep, he didn't sleep much. But one day he snapped. The teacher was looking at his work and told him what a disgusting failer he was. He stood and screamed at the woman, telling her exactly what he thought, then stormed from the room. He left the school and went to the edge of the school grounds, the woods. He sat among the area that he and friends often ate honey-suckles. He sat for a while, but refused to cry. Instead he gripped his arms till he bled, not letting himself cry. No-one came.
The next day Dustin learned Addie tried to come but got in a huge fight with the teacher and was sent to the principle for the whole day.
Eleven
Dustins aunt Debbie moved to New York. It didn't shock Dustin when he found out the reason being was cause his brother asked her to move here to dump Dustin with. No shock at all. He moved back to his old house his mother finally back and now lived with his mother, jesse, jordan, aunt and her daughter Bree.
One day at school Chris, a boy who bullied Dustin went too far. He was doing the usual, teasing the boy shamelessly while Dustin sat calmly, staring at his food, not speaking. But then Chris tried something new 'What ever I mean we all know your trash. Your parents knew too that’s why the dumped you on the streets, fucking orphan' Dustin didn’t speak but they way he gripped his pants, looking down with his eyes tight said it all. Addie stood to punch him but was beaten. Dan stood, glaring. He threatened the boy saying if Chris ever dared to say it again he'd beat him senseless. Everyone was shocked Dan stood up to the 'Class Freak' Angry Dan admitted it was He who sent Dustians father to jail (Dustin took the blame all those years so Dan wouldn’t get in trouble with Dustains father). Everyone shocked, especially Dustin. Addie walked the shocked boy out. He never forgot what Dan said that day, or the smile the boy gave him before he left.
A week later Dustain found out he was moving, leaving. He wasnt going to the same Jr. High as his friends.
A week later Amanda offered to let Dustian stay at his house after school so he could go to the same junior high (by riding her bus)
Twelve
Hell, simple hell. Dustin didn't realize the terms of his deal. In order to ride amanada's bus he had to do everything the other told him. EVERYTHING. Dustin didn't care, he did everything. Addie was. She and Amanda fought often over how she treated Dustin like a slave. Then Megan came in. Loud, obnoxious) air-headed tom-boy megan. They met last year and soon became like a sister to Addie and Dustin. Amanda hated her. She forbid Dustin from hanging with her. He refused, she swore she would tell Dustins aunt that he was stealing from wal-mart and had been getting in fights (well really jus verbally shouting) Dustin backed down. For two days. Two days later the school punks (same that pick on Dustin) came around for the usual. Nag and shove around Dustin, tease Amanda, steer clear of Addie...then they came to Megan. She had beat up their buddy last week (she is like animal fighting with teeth and claws). Well Megan had this hair, long, soft wavy blonde hair fall down to her mid-back, very pretty. They dump a box of nachos, meat and melt cheese with chips, on her. The lunch room went silent before she whimpered, unable to hold back from crying for as she tried they wouldnt come out, only get more tangled. That was itL Dustin stood and grabbed the dropper, punched him in the face and shoced him to the ground then led Megan from the lunch room, taking her to get cleaned up. (Addie said she never saw anyone work that face. That day Addie dubbed her 'super-fried' and Amanda let Dustin stick with Megan. After all when Megan got in trouble they called Dustin seeing as only he could calm her.)
Slowly though Dustins mental stability reached a halt. During class one day he burst out crying and fled from the room before anyone knew. He hid in the back of the library the whole day before the custodian found him. Dustin was taken to a doctor, a therapist as well as had to be interviewed by 5 CPS worked and a judge.
Dustian graduated with all of his friends and was able to spend the last day burying a time-capsule he and the original three made.
A month later Dustin found out he was moving again.
Two weeks later he found out he had to switch schools.
Thirteen
Dustin was sent to the second middle school in the same school district. Turns out the school he went to had most of his old camp-buddies (ok not buddies but he knew them) one was a girl named Jessica. She was very popular and soon Dustin knew everyone. Dustin joined Newspaper, forcing him to stay after and take the late bus. There he met Andrea. The girl who would make him ruin his life. They became quick friends and soon people were calling them step-siblings cause Dustin practically lived at Andrea's, never wanting to go home. He and two boys twin brother he met in camp became close friends and the four of them became a tight group. A bad group. They always stayed after school to goof off and cause trouble usually leading to Dustin getting yelled at by his aunt. She yelled at Dustin every night, taking the days frustration out on him. Many nights Dustin layed in bed, silently crying but never dared to make a noise. It wasn't just her, his cousin Bree also did the same yelling at him but she was much more then that. Often she would grab him and hold him close, touching him always. It was creepy and scary. Then Brendon moved in with them. Dustin was kicked out of his room and for four months slept on the couch in the living room before sharing a room with his aunt. Every night he went to bed at 7 and got up at 5 that way he didn't have to see his family. Times got harder, he got in so much trouble he almost got suspended. His cousin started lashing out, using Dustin as a relief by beating him till he was extreme pain.
Then the pill came. They made Dustin take a pill for ADHD (lie. it was anti-psychotic drug) it fucked him up bad. He's emotions were like on air when the drug worked but then he would crash hard and started breaking down constantly. He was scared and confused. He told Addie and she flipped, swearing to stop them no matter what. Then Debbie banned Dustin from seeing Addie. He told him Addie caused the problem, well contributed.
That night when he was home alone he took a knife and tried to cut his throat. He got as far as putting the tip of the knife to his neck and causing some blood before he remembered his friends. He promised to be there for Addie no matter what, he couldn't do this. Letting out a cry he threw the knife and cried himself to sleep. Next day he snuck to Addies and told her. For the first time Addie cried, hard. She begged and pleaded with him to never do it again. Dustin swore and made a promise to continue to live, if only for her. He's had trouble handling knifes since.
A month later Dustin and Brendon got in a fight. Bredon had kicked Bon and Dustin yelled at him. Amused Brendon kept going, yanking the cats tail so hard it let out a cry and ran away. Pissed Dustin punched him. A moment later his head was smashed into the tile of the floor. Once the dizzy spell wore off he ran from the house. An hour later, Andrea found a rather worn, beating and shivering Dustin on her porch. Dustin stayed the entire night but when Andrea’s mother came home he was forced to leave for his Aunt was waiting for him. The next two weeks he tried his best to avoid his family. Things cooled a bit and his abuse continued. Later that week he gave up on trying to make his family happy. He had been told to come home on time every day but he disobeyed and instead went to Andrea’s house. That afternoon Andrea’s mother took them to the City for the night and they drove around getting rent on the houses her Mother rented out and had Chinese take-out from a rather lovely run-down store in the Queens. It was a lovely night but later that night Dustin parted with them. He had decided to leave home and go to Sea-Berry a run-away home. It the was most stressful thing he’s ever done. When Andrea and her mother left Dustin was left in the hands of the house. He was scared endlessly when they gave him his room. The next morning he went into the kitchen and met a few other kids. He was horrified and tried to leave the area but he was grabbed and greeted by a warm shy smile. Her name was Danielle. Two days passed and Dustin felt right at home. Everyone was so friendly, so gentle so caring. Diana, the only case-worked to care for him even came and visit and he still got to attend school. One of his teachers even said he wanted to visit him if he could. But Dustin tricked himself in thinking this would last forever. A month later he was forced to go home. It was hell.
His Aunt never let him leave the house and the family wouldn’t speak to him. It took three months before they ever spoke to him again.
It was near the end of the school yer and Dustin got busted with the worst yet. Andrea had failed a test and needed to change the grade and being the way he was he weakly agreed and went with her the classroom, picking the lock for her. Andrea said she was going to peek at the test answered, nothing wrong with that. Wrong. Andrea didn’t tell Dustin she already took and when he looked he was shocked to find she was changing the test answers. Pissed he started to scold her but as he did the teacher walked in. Shocked, Andrea tossed the pen before the teacher saw and stared at them. She asked what was going on and Andrea blurt out that Dustin was changing test answers. He was taken to the dean right away. He didn’t get suspended but he got an F on the test and three weeks detention. The dean favored Dustin, they spoke before and they got along well. Dustin didn’t deny he did it. Even if she did betray him he still didn’t want to let her get in trouble. He never spoke to Andrea again. The twins remained his friends and in the end he wound up once again talking to the first person to ever open up to him, Francis’s who was Andrea’s Ex. Andrea never let Dustin talking to Francis, always stopping him or leading him the other direction or simply telling Francis’s to get away. without her he was able to re-connect with his friend once again and during the end of school he grew closer then ever with Francis and his group of friends
A month after school ended his phone broke.
A week later he found out he was moving to Las Vegas.
Fourteen
Las Vegas. They moved here so they could they and scrap together what was left of their family. They lived in a small apartment for almost half a year before moving in with Steve and his friend Vince. They stayed there for half a year and Dustin went to his first year of high school. He met many people and made strange but great friends. Dacey was a tough New York City girl who didn’t take people’s shit. She was amazing always watching out for Dustin. She was there to help him when ever things were rough. Dacey brought Dustin into her group and things went really well. Michel really liked Dustin. He always hug around the younger, hugging him and such. It reminded him too much of his cousin. Often he played it off and would slid from the hug saying he was getting water or pretending a friend had called him and such. It wasn’t enough to get him to back off. One day when heading to class Dacey headed him first and Michel pinned the younger to the wall, speaking in a lusty tone to him. It scared him, a lot. It went on for a while and Dustin tried to play it off, hoping if he acted like he was naïve and uninterested he would back off. Wrong. One day when Dacey was absent Michel almost kissed Dustin but the boy was quick and turned his head. that was the last straw. He knew Michel was older, eighteen and had no right to be doing this, nor touch him like he did and he knew the other only did when Dacey wasn’t around. Well he wasn’t going to take this guys shit. He finally came to the girl and told her what was going on. Dustin has no idea what happened or what she said but Michel left him alone, he was so thankful. Near the middle of school their gyms were switched and Dacey and Dustins co-ed gym was mixed with another. That’s when Dusting met Sam. The two became fast friends and for the first time since he came to Vegas he went another students house. It wasn’t long before they were inseparable. Dustin even wound up hooking Sam up with his best friend Chris, a boy he met during his first week of school, his first friend here. Chris was fun-loving goof-head but down to earth. He could be serious when need but then turn around and make an entire room laugh. He didn’t push sam to do anything and let her take her sweet time getting use to a boy (it was her first boy-friend) it was really sweet in Dustins eyes. Things went smooth for a while then Dacey came to school crying. Her mother beat her, Dustin knew this, but lately it had been brutal and Dacey was in bad shape. Torn, Dustin offered to do anything. So by the end of the week Her and Dacey had scarpped together enough money to buy a train ticket so Dacey could go live her friend in Texas who offered her a room. It was a sure-fire plan cause once Dacey got to Texas her mother couldn’t find her. Well someone heard them talking after-school. The next day in class Rena, a boy in class who didn’t really see eye-to-eye with Dustin gave a smug smile, stating that if Dacey went missing they would search. There would be a reward probably if someone had information and he laughed, saying he was going to give them the information he knew and get them both in trouble and Dustin screwed-over for assisting a ‘kid-napping’ and he hoped they shipped Dacey back to her mother. Pissed Dustin snapped. He grabbed the boy who was on the other side of the table and yank him over to his side, knocking him against the table, gripping his collar tight, threatening him if he ever said a word about it that Dustin would make him regret ever waking up that morning. Scared Rena agreed. Everyone was shocked cause Dustin had been so calm all year despite a few cursing fights.
The year ended smoothly. Dacey left home and lives in Texas. Rena never said a word about it to anyone. Two months after school ended they moved again, switching to a new school once again.
Fifteen
He switched to yet another school. This one wasn’t as bad. He was still rather shy but one day he wore a ring from his favorite manga nad a boy stopped him, one named Cameron. The boy was very friendly and introduced him to a whole group of kids and soon he found himself with many friends. Though not many stuck. Mostly he stuck with a peppy girl named Taylin and a shy girl named Tani. He helped her open up and always there to listen to Taylin when she needed support. For the first year in a long time things went smoothly. He only had a few issues like getting in fights (verbal) and well he (tried) to date but Michel had scared him pretty bad but his friends helped him and he had a pretty good relationship for a while. It didn’t end badly but the other did cry which mad him feel terrible (when they broke up). He still wears the red butterfly ring he was given. That year he finally came out to his friends and later his family. His aunt said it was ‘a phase’ it wasn’t. He said Bi-sexual but really he was pansexual. Gender was not important to him, he didn’t see people as ‘male and female’ he simply saw them as people and saw their personalities.
That summer was fed up with his family’s constant fighting, their views about him and everyone’s crap in general. So he looked up La Campana and figured if there was anywhere he could go for a change it would be there. He spent the whole summer raising money and pulled many favors to get enough cash to go. He barely gave his family a real goodbie before flying away to Spain. Now he’s 16 and living at La Campana, praying that maybe for the first time he’ll fit in and possibly make a friend.
Roleplaying Sample:
A yawn escaped the caramel haired boy as he used the back of his fist to gently rub his eyes which were stinging. Groaning he stretched out his body, winching when several pops were heard before letting out a sigh, folding his arms behind him. This was his new room…well dorm. He was scared, really scared right now. He hadn’t met any of his room mates yet and was worried they would hate him. What could suck worse then having a room-mate who thought you were a freak? There was a slight buzz and the boy pouted lightly before grabbing the navy phone, his eyes lighting up. Addie: Whatzzzz up my homie? The boy let out a laugh, shaking his head. She never changed. Turning the phone and sliding it up he started to write her back, a soft smile on his face as he did so. Addie had been texting him none stop the past week, always checking in on him. She really was the best. When he was done he closed the phone and let it fall beside him and dropped the back of his hand on his forehead, silently thinking. Why did he come here? He didn’t even know. He wanted a change, to take a flying leap at something new and well after telling his ‘parents’ he wasn’t normal, what could this do? Really…Though Dustin didn’t expect much. It wasn’t like he was expecting to meet the love of his life, far from really. In fact if Dustin even made a single friend here he would internally shocked. What could ya do? It was school after all and he had never really fit in, he didn’t expect it to be better here. Really he was looking for an escape and this seemed to offer it to him. Now if only he could stop worrying so much and actully relax. He was in fucking SPAIN! EUROPE! He had always wanted to come to Europe. There were so many beautiful places. Besides…maybe after he finished school (or during break) he could travel? He really wanted to see France, Italy, Sweden, Germany and Russia! Of course he also wanted to see England as well. Dustin loved exploring. He only wished Addie was here with him, then everything would be perfect! Except being surrounded by sexually pumped and confused teens (and teachers from the rumors he heard). Rolling his eyes he let a sigh out again, deciding to take a nap since he was dead set on sneaking out after hours to exploring. Exploring at night, nothing was better. His body relaxed and after a few moments the boy drifted off.
