tessa nicole van leer WE BOTH LIE SILENTLY STILL IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT. ALTHOUGH WE BOTH LIE CLOSE TOGETHER, WE FEEL MILES APART INSIDE. WAS IT SOMETHING I SAID OR SOMETHING I DID? DID MY WORDS NOT COME OUT RIGHT? THOUGH I TRIED NOT TO HURT YOU, YEAH I TRIED. BUT I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY SAY EVERY ROSE HAS IT'S THORN. JUST LIKE EVERY NIGHT HAS IT'S DAWN. you should know by now that my name is tessa nicole van leer, but please call me tess. i like them much better! although my fake i.d. says differently, i'm really nineteen. cool, huh? i guess i could be classified as a resident, but i prefer not to be labeled. i grew up in the beautiful city of san francisco, california, but i certainly like this town much more! want to know how i act? two words can sum me up: underestimated and talented. yeah, i'm pretty amazing, aren't i? some say i look just like victoria lott, though i can't see it! jealous? i know. peyton isobel jennings and chase adam van leer never meant to see eachother again after that summer in miami. peyton was visiting her aunt and chase was on a senior trip - neither having that much commitment to begin with. so when they saw eachother and hooked up, then began spending countless days together, they both knew it was just a summer and life would go back to normal once it ended and it did. peyton went back home to nashville and chase returned to new york university - two completely different places with no intentions of reliving that summer again. peyton had finally fufilled that summer fling her friends were always having - the kind where you think your in love for a summer and then life goes back to normal and you never remember that boy again. it wasn't until peyton was feeling different when she returned home that she confronted her younger sister, leslie. seven weeks later, peyton was convinced that careless leslie gave her the wrong advice - she needed to see a doctor and pronto. almost two hours after exiting the hospital, peyton was devestated. she was not supposed to get pregnant! if anyone in the family was supposed to have a baby at her age, it should have been leslie! that's when peyton came to the realization that that summer fling was more than just a fling - this baby was chase's and she needed to tell him. in new york, chase was already moving on with his life and reuniting with his high school sweetheart until he got an urgent call. fly to nashville on the next flight out. peyton sounded concerned and he remembered seeing her on the beach that night - she was different than the rest and some part of him still cared for her as a friend. when peyton and chase finally came together, news broke that they were having a baby - and she would have this baby with or without him. within weeks chase was already packed up and moved into a small apartment in nashville - big enough for a family of three.
life was going good for the unexpected parents and both of their parents had come to terms with the fact that their teenagers were having a baby of their own. several months later at her baby shower, peyton began having severe contractions that she first ignored but then began to become more painful. leslie - only sixteen at the time - helped her twenty-one year old sister to the doctors, where chase met them. almost twenty-eight hours later, tessa nicole van leer was born in a small hospital in nashville on september seventeenth. when tessa came into the world, peyton and chase planned on getting married and living the so-called fairytale ending, but it wasn't until the stress became to much that the ending was slowly deteriorating. chase was becoming careless and peyton was struggling to be the best mom possible - she didn't want to fail tessa in any way. after tessa was almost seven months, her mom realized that she let chase walk all over her - he was controlling the situation here and he was leaving to party with friends because he knew peyton would take care of it and he wouldn't have to worry. missing out on her own life too, peyton filled for custody and took chase to court in order to let their daughter have the best life that she deserved. from that point on, chase was only allowed to visit tessa and spend time with her when another adult besides peyton was present. that's when leslie came into the picture. leslie was now seventeen and as carefree as ever, she was the wild child and peyton was the good girl. before peyton's very own eyes, something changed. leslie and chase began hanging around a lot more than normal.
tessa grew up knowing that her mom was her mom and her dad was her dad but there was this blond girl she didn't know anything about. leslie and chase had gotten engaged and their relationship was on and off and on and off again. peyton had moved on and began studying journalism at a local community college. at age seven, tessa began taking ballet and by age fourteen, she was still doing ballet while balancing school. tessa wasn't the girl you saw dancing on tables at midnight, she was usually at home studying and behaving herself - if her dad let her mom down, she wasn't going to be the next person to disappoint her mother. she had always been the pretty, shy girl that could out smart you easily and dance her way out of things. she had boyfriends here and there, but they never lasted long. boys were always trying to smooth talk their way into her life, but tessa was no dummy when it came to boys. she somehow knew what to say exactly if she wanted some guy to leave her alone or how to come up with an excuse if she needed to escape. when tessa turned seventeen, her aunt, leslie and her dad finally stopped dating - or doing whatever they seemed to be doing - and called of their longtime engagement. once chase moved back to new york in hopes of living his dream of becoming a director, leslie moved to halifax, nova scotia in hopes of creating a different life for herself. suddenly without any hesitation, peyton shipped tessa off to live with leslie while she backpacked around europe in hopes of spending some time alone and fulfilling her lifelong dreams. now that tessa is all moved in with leslie, she spends most of her days being the shy, pretty girl walking around town, hiding behind her sunglasses on her way to the local dance studio. at age nineteen, tessa plans on joining julliard after her mom returns to nashville. now i can establish the basics about me. my name is mariah and i'm currently sixteen years old. i've been roleplaying for forever, but i'm a professional already. you should probably know that i live in the pacific, in case you need to know when i will be on. if you need to contact me, you can do so on aim, pm. be sure to plot with me soon!
