DANIEL SHARMAN hanging around palmwood studios? oh no, that was MARCO MORELLI, the 24 year old actor who plays DANIEL SALVAVAL on THE VAMPIRE BOOKS. yeah, you know rumour has it he’s - CONCEDED, and - ERRATIC but his fans all say he’s CARING , + CHARMING , around palmwood studios he’s known as THE GOLDEN BOY. ( cismale, him/he) ( tatia, she/her, 23, est+ )

ONCE UPON A TIME  

marco morelli came into the world as a happy kid, his goofy smile evident during his school pictures but that all changed once he was old enough to realize that his mom tended to fall down a lot, though it was always after a heated argument with his father. garrison morelli was the ideal family man, devoted and caring but behind closed doors it was a completely different story. his mothers lessons ( as his father liked to call them ) become much more frequent, the smallest comment would set him off in the most powerful rage. his mother wasn’t safe and neither was he. 

after the aftermath of his fathers brutality, he would sit down next to his mother curing her wounds and never blaming her, always by her side. the more he leaned towards his mother, the worst thing got for him. his father became enraged and the bruises began to appear on marco, though no one could believe that the matriarch of the morelli family could ever do something so vile,marco spoke out but no one truly believed him and if they did, his father had everyone in his pocket. 

weeks turned into months and months into years and the more that time passed, the more marco changed. More closed off he became and more violet towards some situations. one day coming home, he hears pleading and the commotion of things being thrown. he doesn’t have to speculate what’s going on, the help in the kitchen minds their business, but the worrisome look on their features is evident. he walks right past them and his mother is on the floor of his father study, bloody and lifeless. his father taunting him, his anger gets the best of him and everything just turns black. 

once he regains consciousness, he feels a pair of hands holding him back. his mother is on the floor, barely breathing. he doesn’t realize the amount of blood that’s covering his hands, his hands on the phone but its taken away by his father security. telling him that they needed to play this as a burglary and that’s exactly what happened, they played the grieving wife and son  part quite well. 

for marco his nightmare wasn’t over because in the back of his mind, he has flashbacks of the incident, his fist repeatedly pounding his fathers face and his fathers taunting prose ; you’re a monster just like I am .  those words echoed in his mind and played on a constant loop, maybe his father wasn’t wrong and marco would be just like his father if not worse. 

his father ran a miltu-miliion dollar PR company and ever since marco could remember, he loved being able to be different people. anything was better than who he truly was. though hollywood world took a shine to him, labeling him the golden boy. a few failed relationships but severely private with his private life, not really allowing the camera's to catch him with anyone, though his life right now revolves around the vampire books and nothing else.

grace trusted marco a lot, she didn’t think there was anything she couldn’t tell him. but this she hadn’t told anyone, she’d been holding onto the secret with everything she had. after all the garcia name wasn’t anything to tamper with. she’d been made for stardom, ever since she was a tiny baby. her parents had kept her adoption secret for a reason. she sighed and sat up a bit straighter. “i found out a while back, a good few years now actually….when my parents were arguing over me, or rather arguing who’s problem i was- that i’m adopted. and i’ve found out my real parents names…they had a veto but you can throw money at anything you know? i just- i’m scared. because what if i hate who they are. and then knowing that it’s a part of me?” 

the relationship     he developed with     gracie had been     something pure       or genuine.     always looking      out for her ,     making sure    that she       was alright.     it didn’t matter     if his relationship      with alana had     ended ,      they still remained      rather close.     hearing her      confession,      he simply nodded his    head and waited        for her to      finish speaking       ❝ think about     it     this way ——— you’ll always      wonder who they     are and      that will honestly       eat you alive    ,     as far as who     they are that     doesn’t matter,    if there is anything      that I’ve learned is     that parents are      not the ones who     make you    or     birth you ,    parents are     the ones that      raise you and it’s      as simple as     that .     to me ,     my mother has     always      been mother     and      father to me,      she toughened up       and did       what she had      to do  and        whoever these     people are ,    you’re your      own person gracie    and an amazing        person at that . ❞

she felt like the grinch who’s heart grew three sizes that day. she had grown up watching her parents pour themselves into charity work while she remained by the queens side behind the castle walls. she thought that their acts of service were all a farse, simply a way to gain the public’s favor. never did she think that doing something for others could feel good and never did she think she could feel bad for the less fortunate. but here she was, crying in the hallway of a children’s hospital because what she saw absolutely broke the heart she wasn’t even aware that she had. “i suppose it’s real for people like my parents.” she said with a small shrug, wiping underneath her eyes. “but across the pond…it’s about showing face, everything has a motive and a reason and a purpose. it’s why my parents left…they wanted to do things out of the simple goodness of their hearts. and i never understood it, i never understood why on bloody earth they’d leave all of that behind.” she said, letting out a heavy sigh. “until…until now.” she said, looking up at him with a small smile. “well, please do put me in contact with her. i’d like to set up university funds for them, as well.” she said with a nod, reaching into her pocket as she pulled out her handkerchief, fixing her smudged mascara. however, her actions froze at marco’s next words, causing a small smile to spread across her lips, looking down as she shook her head. “i’m afraid i’m not. but maybe you can teach me how to be.” she said, giving him a soft nod when he said he’d see her back inside. taking a moment to compose herself, she cleared her throat before heading back into jimmy’s room, clapping her hands together with a bright smile. “now, now. i would love to watch you absolutely demolish marco over here in chess. i can even teach you some of the queen’s secret moves.”

after his      father died , he really didn’t     care much about anything       and there were     times that he hated      being dragged here ,     why should he      spend his    time with a bunch     of sick kids when      they didn’t do       nothing for him ?    his mentality as     an adolescent was     very different than      who marco was      at the moment .     he found a way    to love this hospital      more than he ever      loved anyone    and     that clearly says     a lot .      spending time with      the kids could brighten      up his day ,    no matter how shitty       it was.     hearing how she     didn’t see the point      of her parents actions ,      he nodded his head      ❝ at the start ,   I was like      that too .    I didn’t get       why my    mother was     so damn hellbent      on being here .    later I found     out that     my mother had      cancer for the     first ten years      of her life ,     all she saw was     the four hospital walls     of her bedroom     and not one      kind      face that didn’t     feature the doctors     or      nurses , she knew    what it felt like to     be completely alone      and then       I got it ,   we have     so much ,       the money ,    the fame but      most of ——- were healthy .     we can go    and    do more than half      of the things     these kids can    do and      the saddest      part is , they     are kids. jimmy     has never been      outside this hospital since        he was born.       he’s a special kid     and       he’s been through hell       and back. ❞       his own voice shakes     but he cleared his       throat and      composes himself as he      looks towards adelaide        ❝ you don’t need     me to teach you        anything, you’re a good      person.      with a good heart,       even if it’s covered by all     the gowns and        tittles . ❞       he adds on     as he gives her a       small smile.       once she appear       s in the room once again ,      jimmy becomes       excited     ❝ alright kid,       don’t embarrass me too        much ,    alright ? ❞
