“Marriage” Partner: “The Addict”
Faceclaim: Hailee Steinfeld
When Izzie was 13, she absolutely loved music so she had a music teacher who she would see every week. She absolutely loved this music teacher and he definitely loved her back but one day things changed. That love the teacher had for her turned into a different kind of love and Izzie’s life was forever changed. What happened, happened a few times before Izzie decided to speak up. The music teacher was immediately fired and he went to jail but Izzie’s life and mind and body were changed.
After that, she had a hard time trusting anyone. But when she was 16 she met a boy who said all the right things. He did all the right things. He made her trust again. They talked about marriage after high school and about their lives in the future but all that changed when she slept with him. He completely ghosted her and left her in heartbreak and with another feeling of being used.
She took a break from boys, but then she got to college and met another guy who promised her the world. Maybe it was just her hope that things could work in the name of love but she decided to give it a chance. She was older now, wiser or so she thought. She trusted him and it turned out he was dating five other girls behind her back. She was absolutely crushed. She went crying to a friend’s house that night about it, the night he spilled the news to her, and it was fine for a little but then the friend thought it would be a good idea to admit feelings for her, tell her she was worth everything but then proceed to try to get her to have sex with him, and not very gently either. Before he could really do anything, she pushed him off and kicked him out. The last thing she wanted was to be used again.
Now, she refuses to believe that love exists for her, as people often just see her as flirty and end up using her. She still does come off that way but when things get too close to being too far she promptly lets them know where the line is. She’s just trying to focus on school, deciding on a career in social work to prevent what happened to her to anyone else,
“The HBIC”, “The Drama Queen”, “The Survivor”, “The Mom Friend”, “The Warrior” - They all were dating The Politician at the same time, After things ended and they all found out, they all became close. They rented a house together instead of living on campus and are all roommates and best friends.
“The Politician” - She hadn’t wanted to date him in the first place but he was so inviting and she thought dating someone like him was going to be a good thing. She’d get a lot out of it but instead she just got her heart broken. He was just like all the other men who had come her way. After everything that happened with him though, it kind of catapulted her into who she is today.
“The Dirtbag” - These two are cousins and despite both of their difficult lives, having each other in them was a constant good thing. They grew up right around the corner from each other so they were always spending time together and no matter what was going on in their lives, they knew they could turn to each other. When it came to college it wasn’t even a question on if they would go together.
“The Addict” - She doesn’t really know who he is but Izzie is determined just to get out of this with an A. Commitment isn’t her thing anymore and she doesn’t think she should be forced to do it with a complete stranger but she’s pretty apathetic when it comes to the male she’s paired with.
