Usually, she gets it streaked with blonde highlights. It's very soft, and reaches down past her shoulderblades. She likes having it in a flowing style that accentuates the length and frames her face nicely. MYEYES: Kelsey has hazel eyes that are very wide and expressive. She likes to play around with different colors of eye makeup, and loves when her eyes look more brown than green. MYFACE: Kelsey has a pretty oval-shaped face, with smooth skin that's relatively clear for her age. Her cheekbones are set a bit low, and her eyebrows are a bit darker than her hair. She has a very pretty mouth, with beautifully-shaped lips and a wide smile that reaches her eyes. MYBODY: She's only fifteen, so Kelsey's body isn't completely developed yet. She's getting there, though. Her body is very soft and delicate-looking, and she has slight curves that are getting bigger now that she's pregnant. Her tummy is also getting slightly round, but you can't really tell yet unless she lifts her shirt.

Now that tragedy has struck her life, though, she has changed quite a bit. She's become depressed over the loss of her boyfriend, and the stress of carrying a baby. She's strong enough to deal with it, though, and her morals refuse to let her get an abortion. She's a rather impatient person, especially when it comes to the baby being born so she can move on with her life. She wants to give it a good home, but ultimately wants nothing to do with it. Having this child has changed everything about Kelsey, to the point where even she isn't really sure who she is anymore. ======================================== BORNIN: Merrydale, LA LIVING IN: Merrydale, LA MOTHER: Nancy Yarbarough - a good Christian woman who, up til now, Kelsey has been able to go to with everything FATHER: Marcus Yarbarough - a conservative Christian minister with his own church, and who emphasizes the fear of God far more than His love SIBLINGS: Mason Yarbarough - Kelsey's annoying but somehow still lovable little brother THEKIDS: ___ Wilder - her unborn baby IMPORTANTPEEPS: Abby Weston - Kelsey's new friend, and the only person who knows what she's going through. Abby has been through some terrible times herself, and has offered to help Kelsey through hers. OTHERHALF: THEPETS: Mickey and Minnie - her two spotted mice that she keeps in her room GOODMEMORY: Kelsey's best memory was the day that she started going out with David. She had adored him from afar for a couple of years, a silly little girl crush that never really went away. She never thought that someone like him would be interested in a girl like her, so when he asked her out she was all too happy to say yes. BADMEMORY: Kelsey's worst memory was the day that David died. The day she found out she was pregnant was horrible as well, but she believes she could have dealt with it as long as she had her David. HISTORY: Kelsey is a pastor's child, the firstborn of Marcus and Nancy Yarbarough. Her mother is a very loving woman, while her father is very much the head of the house, and leads his family by strict Christian rules. Kelsey was never as bad as some other preacher's kids, but she always got the feeling that her father was disappointed in her because she didn't put as much emphasis on the values that he held. When Kelsey was six, her parents had another child, a little boy named Mason. Life was relatively normal - the kids went to a private school and made good grades, Nancy cooked, Marcus wrote sermons, and they all went to church every Sunday for both services. As Kelsey grew older, she was exempt from Wednesday and Saturday night services, as long as she remained involved in her Thursday night youth group. Kelsey was about twelve when she started feeling sick. Her father was concerned, but her mother seemed more worried than anything. Marcus was on a missions trip when Kelsey shifted for the first time, into a beautiful young fox. Her mother carried the shifter gene and explained tearfully what Kelsey was, and how they couldn't tell her father because when Nancy had tried to tell him before, he had had her exorcised. Kelsey had to quickly learn how to control her shifting form, but luckily Marcus was usually busy with church stuff anyway. Her mother helped her a lot, and after a while things began to get better. When she met David Wilder, though, everything changed. He was a shifter too, she later discovered, and a year older than her. Kelsey had "liked" him for a few years now, giggling with her friends every once in a while about how cute he was. When they were in eighth grade, he asked her out, and Kelsey was both surprised and excited. She happily agreed to date him, and the two carried on a happy relationship. They were too young to go on actual dates, but they went to the park and such things, and they and their friends all sat together at school. When Kelsey was a freshman, she asked her father to be able to stop going to her youth group. Marcus hated the idea, and said that it was bad enough that she had a boyfriend at her age, but Nancy reasoned with him and patiently explained that church groups weren't everyone's thing. Marcus was firm in his belief that Kelsey had to keep going, especially now that she had a boyfriend, but Nancy argued that if he kept forcing Kelsey to go against her will that she wouldn't get anything out of the group anyway. With much resentment, Marcus finally agreed to let Kelsey off of youth group, as long as she kept going to church on Sundays. Now, Kelsey had even more time to spend with David. During Christmas break of her freshman year, the two had sex for the first time. It was awkward at first, but with practice they got better, though they had to be careful not to let Kelsey's parents know what was going on. A few months ago, though, Kelsey found out that she was pregnant. She was barely two weeks along, and it terrified her. She was afraid of what would happen when she told David, and when she told her parents. She decided that she would have to get an abortion, but she kept remembering what her father said about abortion being murder, and she just couldn't go through with it. David was just finishing up the basketball season, though, and the school's team had made regionals and he was so excited. Kelsey waited with much difficulty for a few days to tell him, wanting to wait until regionals were over so that David could play unbothered. She was going to tell him the Saturday night following the last big blowout, but on his way to her house to pick her up, David was hit by a drunk driver. He was killed instantly. Kelsey was absolutely devastated, and more certain than ever that she had to get rid of her baby. She went to the abortion clinic again, but walked out before she even got inside. She just couldn't do it, no matter how scared she was or how she had nowhere to go. Kelsey met Abby Weston not too long after that, the only person who knows what she's going through and who has been wonderful enough to agree to help her through this awful time. ======================================== ALIAS: Jesse HOWYOUFOUNDUS: obvious OTHERCHARACTERS: Jesse, Corban, Derek, Erik, Kevin, Victoria, Khloe, Aidan, Shelby RP SAMPLE: Kelsey held her head high, walking briskly toward the clinic. She had to be rid of this baby. There was absolutely no way that she could take care of it, especially now with David gone... Kelsey swallowed against the lump in her throat at that thought. David had been so wonderful, the man of her dreams, and she honestly believed that she was in love with him. No matter what anyone said about her age or the chances of them actually ending up together, Kelsey knew how she felt. It didn't matter now, though. David was dead, and there was no way that Kelsey was going to be able to take care of his child all by herself. What would her parents think? What would her father do? She couldn't tell them, but at the same time, she would start showing soon and then she'd have no choice. They had already noticed that something was up. Of course she could attribute it to David's death... Her mother had held her while she cried the whole night after she got the phone call. Even her father had come in to see how she was doing, and to reassure her that he loved her and that everything happened for the glory of God. That made her feel even worse, knowing that her parents loved her so much. She couldn't disappoint them with this... What would they think of her? No, she had to get an abortion. Surely even her father would agree that that was the way to go this time. Besides, what were all those things that pro-choicers said? "It's your body," "it's not even a baby yet," and all sorts of things like that. These people really believed that stuff, just as much as pro-lifers believed that abortion was murder. Why couldn't they be right? Why couldn't Kelsey believe what they said? There were a few girls standing outside the clinic with signs, and Kelsey knew what they were doing there before she could even see the graphic images on the signs that they held. She didn't want to think about what was about to happen, and she didn't want to know what it would look like or anything like that. Kelsey was planning on getting up on that table and closing her eyes, singing to herself and imagining she was absolutely anywhere besides on the table at an abortion clinic. And when it was over she would clean up and go home, and all her problems would be over. "Hey!" one of the girls called out to her. Keep walking, Kelsey told herself, refusing to stop and look. "Hey, wait! I don't bite. How far along are you? I just want to know," the girl said. Her voice sounded so sweet and kind, and she was the first person to actually acknowledge the fact that Kelsey was pregnant... After keeping it all bottled up for so long, how could Kelsey refuse this opportunity to actually not have to hide it? "About five weeks," Kelsey said quietly, slowing down but still not wanting to look at the girl she was talking to. She didn't want to see whatever gory image was on her sign. "It's got a heartbeat, you know..." the girl said softly. Kelsey froze, swallowing hard and finally turning to look at a blonde girl who was obviously older than her, but even tinier than she was. "Wh-what did you say?" "Your baby," the girl replied, looking sadly down at her shoes. "It's alive. It's got a heartbeat, just like yours." Kelsey felt like she was going to be sick. How the hell was anyone supposed to get an abortion with this little twits out here telling them about how their baby was alive, making it seem so... human. But it was human, wasn't it...? The baby was a human, part of her and part of David. It was alive, and it even had a little heartbeat... It was so strange to think that there were two hearts inside of Kelsey's body, one entirely dependent on her for nourishment and care and protection. A little life entirely at her mercy. Kelsey turned on her heel and walked quickly back the way she had come, wiping tears from her eyes and holding her arms around herself, ignoring the encouraging shouts of the blonde girl with the gory sign. She couldn't do it. She couldn't abort this baby. She was positively screwed. kelsey anne yarbarough |
