[/font]DELILAH • NINETEEN • EMMA STONE • RESIDENT • WHIMSICAL[/center]
PERSONALITY | delilah is a very social person and she can fit into most any social situation. she adapts very well to change and can be very spontaneous. delilah is the kind of girl that has friends in all different social groups, flitting between cliques and not really "belonging" anywhere. she is known for making snap decisions and she can be very flighty and hard to hold down. if she feels like someone is trying to control her or tie her down then she will most likely freak out and try to avoid them as much as possible. she's responsible with the important things, but she isn't always reliable except for people she feels deserve her loyalty.
art and photography have always been a huge interest for her. she's very into art and creativity, and she loves the outdoors. following the rules can sometimes be hard for her because she gets extremely bored with routine and regulations and the same old same old. she doesn't normally go looking for trouble but when she finds it, most of the time she is able to negotiate and talk her way out of consequences. she's well-liked by most authority figures because she has a charming air about her, but she is in no way manipulative. she doesn't control others, but she can sometimes charm them into giving her what she wants without the manipulation.
there is also a very intellectual side to her. she gets good grades but she has to study hard for them, and it doesn't just come easily to her. she's a very creative thinker and loves philosophical discussions about life. in most situations she can think of a good thing to say. if someone has made her speechless, then they have certainly made a good point.
delilah absolutely loves the outdoors and nature. to deal with stress and to keep in shape, she turns to running. she goes for runs almost daily unless she is extremely ill or injured. she would love to run in a really long marathon or participate in a triathlon sometime in the future when she finishes school.
when it comes to romance, this girl is a hopeless romantic. she wants a prince charming to sweep her off her feet so they can run of into the sunset and fall in love and live happily ever after. unfortunately, she's been hurt in the past which leaves her somewhat guarded, but she still has high hopes for the future. she knows her prince charming will come, so for now she's just having fun. she doesn't want a relationship while in college because she feels as if she's still figuring herself out as a person.

HISTORY | delilah rose williams was born in holden, massachusetts, where she lived with her mother rochelle until she was fourteen years old. she never knew her father, and she was always jealous of the kids who got to live with both of their parents. rochelle had delilah when she was only nineteen, so delilah had a different family dynamic then the kids she went to school with. all the kids had their perfect suburban houses and perfect families with perfect white fences and minivans, while delilah spent a lot of time home alone in their apartment while rochelle worked as a waitress to try and support them. and when rochelle was home, she was usually drunk, leaving delilah to have to raise herself for the most part.
delilah and rochelle had a strained relationship, but even at twelve years old, delilah was mature enough to understand that the lack of attention she got from her mother was only because rochelle was working to support them. but delilah never forgave her for coming home and drinking every night, trying to drink away the pain of delilah's father leaving her. but by the time delilah was thirteen, she pretty much did what she wanted. she went out every night, she dated older guys, she was into drugs, and she was out of control. she did bad things as a way to get back at her mother for not being there for her. one day rochelle came home and found delilah smoking marijuana in their living room with a group of older guys, and that was the final straw- rochelle sent delilah to live in beechshire with rochelle's mother, rose.
when delilah got to beechshire, she was immediately resentful towards rose. she hated the area, hated her mother, and hated life. she thought it wasn't fair that she had been dealt such shitty cards. but as time went on, she formed a really strong bond with rose. rose was everything rochelle hadn't been. rose was there for delilah, she was reliable, loving, stable, and nurturing. it took delilah some getting used to. at first she felt smothered. but rose taught her a lot about life, and really raised her to be a charming young woman. thanks to rose delilah really got her life together, and she worked hard in school and got awesome grades her sophomore through senior year of high school. while in high school, delilah barely kept contact with rochelle. every time her mother would write or call, delilah would ignore it. but when rose expressed that it upset her (rochelle was her daughter after all), delilah made a promise to keep in touch with rochelle occasionally.
delilah still lives with her grandmother in the same cute and cozy house in beechshire. she spends a lot of time with rose, playing cards and drinking tea and talking about life. however rose is getting older, and delilah can't stand the thought of ever losing her. she's calmed down so much since her early teen years now that she has stability in her life. she attends the university and she is studying photography and hopes to one day open her own studio, where she will do wedding and prom photos.

BEAUTY QUEEN OF ONLY SIXTEEN,
she had some trouble with herself
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -[/center]
[/color] she stuttered, almost forgetting how to speak.
rosie stood by the staircase by the quidditch pitch, chatting with a few of her friends about a sleepover they were planning for that night. it was a beautiful saturday afternoon, a light blue sky without a cloud in sight. the chilly weather had began to set in, which rosie took into account while getting dressed that morning. she wore a simple blue sweater, dark jeans, and white boots; she wasn’t the type to dress up scandalously; she had nothing to reveal anyways. though her friends were talking, she stopped listening when she heard the mention of scorpius’ name. looking over quickly, she saw him surrounded by his friends, all patting him on the back. rosie knew he was getting out of practice; she had planned to be there at that very moment. she was the silent, observant type, and she had learned a lot about scorpius over the past few years.
she knew that he wasn’t exactly her type; he was a malfoy to start. he was also a player, a big shot, with girls falling all over him. not exactly her idea of a prince charming. but there was just something about him- she couldn’t quite put her finger on it. but she had been crushing in secret for a very long time, and hadn’t told a soul, not even her closest friends. she was very good at acting like she had no interest in him at all, responding appropriately when her friends made comments about him being hot, or an asshole, or something of the sort during their conversations. he didn’t come up in conversation much; many of her friends thought he was overrated, but rosie thought that there must be more to him than meets the eye.
it was kind of cute, actually. she had memorized his schedule, popping up in random places and making it seem like a coincidence. though she doubted that he noticed, why would a guy like him have any interest in her? sure she was brilliant, but she wasn’t anything special, just a plain-looking know it all who had little to no sex appeal. she glanced over once again, silently appreciating the sexiness of his shaggy, sweaty hair. his beautiful blue eyes. his dazzling smile. it got quite tiring, actually, admiring from afar while trying to make it seem as though she was still engaged in her friends conversation.
rosie could feel her eyes widen as her heart started pounding as scorpius walked over to their little group. oh god, he knows i’ve been stalking him. he’s coming over to tell me off. what should i do? should i jinx him? suck it up rose, you can deal with the embarrassment. have some dignity. deny everything. her thoughts were racing- what could he possibly want from her?
he leaned his arm around her behind the railing, blocking her off from her friends. the little group giggled and scurried away, leaving her alone with scorpius, and a group of his friends a few feet away. what the bloody hell was going on? all she knew was that she was terrified, yet smitten at the same time. she had never been that close to him before, physically. she was close enough to smell his body wash, and the remains of his deodorant. despite the sweat, he didn’t smell bad at all. it was grossing her out a little bit; rosie was a hygiene freak. but in that moment, it didn’t really matter, because scorpius was talking to her. ”uh, s-sure.”
he told her that she looked beautiful, and it took every fiber in her being not to burst out laughing. first she wanted to laugh, but then she got angry. surely, he had to be making fun of her. she backed a few steps away from him. ”do you think you’re funny?”[/color] she asked, not bothering to mask her anger. she could hear his group snickering in the distance. she felt her stomache drop. was she really that much of a joke?
