(+) Loyal, Audacious, Tenacious
(-) Reckless, Imprudent, Obstinate
Abel is definitely a conundrum. He is both kind, and careless. He is both dependable, and irresponsible. He is absolutely the best friend you can have, and the biggest problem you’ll ever have to deal with. You can never guess from one second to the next which side of him you’re going to get. To most, he’s just a fun loving guy looking for his next high, his next thrill. And honestly, that’s the best way to view him.
Abel has always been a dependable man. But only to those that he views as worth his time. His family has always been among that list of people; but very few get added to that list and stay there. He’s had the same group of friends since he was a child, and though he’s an amiable man, he doesn’t make friends easily. Mostly because he doesn’t try too awfully hard.
And after all, who needs friends when one could just get high and be perfectly content alone?
"Growing up Belfront" should be synonymous with "Becoming a trainwreck". For most of the time when people look at the Belfronts (either singularly or as a whole), it’s a general consensus that they’re all bat shit insane in one way or another. As a child, and even into his teenage years, Abel seemed to have escaped the true craziness of the family genes. He was a bit of a troublemaker, sure. It was hard not to be when you’re related to the people he is.
But the thing about Belfronts that often times gets dismissed is that - at the core - most of them are very good people. Loyal, compassionate. And Abel still to this day is all of those things. But in his younger years, it was far more prominent. He was a dependable friend; spent almost every minute with either his family, or his group of friends which consisted of Teagan Emerson and the Keventry siblings. The problem was, he had fallen in love with Harley Keventry - and this, eventually, would be his undoing.
For when Harley and Abel’s cousin Jackson took to dating, Abel felt something inside him break. It was his heart; but it was something he didn’t even try to fix. Instead, he took to the bottle to medicate away the pain. And then, shortly after… Harley’s very father - the Packmaster at the time - offered V to all of them. It didn’t take much for Abel to cave in. And soon, he was very well addicted. It was there that his true drug problems took off. It didn’t matter where he got the high from, but he was always chasing it. Even once Everett had taken over the pack and absolutely forbidden V being used by any pack members, Abel found himself agreeing to quit that one particular substance, but it led him to have to more fervently chase his high elsewhere.
Despite his heavy drug abuse, Abel has managed to maintain his friendships. High or not, if his phone rings, he answers. And if someone needs him, he’s there. The only place his drug use seems to trouble him is holding down a job. He has flitted from job to job over the years before finally giving in and going into a labor position with the family construction company. With no ambition to rise beyond where he is, he simply does his job and goes home. His work isn’t spectactular, but it’s enough to keep him from getting fired. Helps that he shares the last name of the man who owns the place, he supposes.
