history

Born in Ireland to Reese and Lauren Hardy, Riley was not the cherished child that she ought to have been. Here father had been hoping for a son. Well, more than hoping actually. All of the ultrasounds had shown that the baby would have been a boy, which made for even more surprise when Riley popped out. Reese was devastated, to say the least. What were girls good for? They were just one more hassle you had to look after, until you married them off to someone who would profit the family. In his eyes, she was a burden. And he never made any attempt to hide it. When Riley was four, her mother found out she was unable to have anymore children. This was the last straw for her father and he booked it to New York, and has since become the CEO of a major record company.

Though she liked being an only child at times, there was nothing Riley wanted more as a child than to have a brother or sister. It became so bad at times, that she would throw tantrums, screaming at her mother to have another baby. When Riley was seven years old, she went to the orphanage by herself and tried to adopt a little brother. As adorable as it was, it didn’t go over so well with her mother, who broke down. It would be the first of many melt downs for her mother, who owned an international modeling agency and had plenty of stress already.

At ten years old, the girl first realized that she would never be good enough for either of her parents. She saw her father once a year, and really only saw her mother when she went to photo shoots. Being around models all the time, the young girl felt disgusted with herself. She still had a little baby fat and she hated it. It’s no shocker that she stopped eating, and has been anorexic ever since. This is a secret that no one knows. Not even her best friends have the slightest idea.

When she was twelve, Riley’s mother decided to move to London. It was a huge place for successful fashonites, and she was looking for her company to explode. The plan was to keep Riley homeschooled and keep her pure, but there was no other way for the girl to live. A few years later, she got started on the drugs and alcohol. The drinking was all casual fun at first. She could sneak into bars and clubs because she looked older than she was. When she started hanging out with her mother’s models, she learned a secret of theirs to keeping thin. Cocaine. No means of losing weight was too drastic for Riley, and she got into it right away. It worked, but at a high cost.

The only thing that has ever been constant in Riley’s life has been acting. She got started when her mother sent her to a summer camp. It was only for a week of straight drama, but Riley fell in love. She made her mother sign her up for acting lessons and hasn’t let down since. Riley has been taking lessons on stage for the past eight years and is fairly good at it. Perhaps that is why her mother eventually sent her to Hoffman, a school dedicated to the arts. Or maybe her mother just felt she was too in the way and needed to ship her off somewhere. So as a freshman, she entered the school and blossomed right away.

She kept up her coke habit and it eventually caught up with her. When she was sixteen and a sophomore, she was caught snorting yayo off a toilet seat at school. Her mother’s assistant took care of the whole thing, as not to add anymore stress to her boss’ life. Giving the Headmaster’s daughter a private photo shoot, Riley was allowed to keep attending the school. Under one condition, however. It was mandatory that she go to rehab. Over the six months she was gone, rumors have been flying about why she was being medicated. Some hit it right on the dot, others are rather ridiculous. Now she is back in school, and crazier than ever. Everything she “learned” in rehab she has tossed right out. Back to her old ways, she is ready to rock London more than ever.

personality

What is there to like about Riley Hardy? Well, if you know the real her…absolutely nothing. If there ever was a definition for a lying, cheating, selfish whore, it’s Miss. Hardy. Coming from a wealthy family, she was raised to be just what she became, a spoiled brat. Nothing is too vicious for Riley, as long as she benefits herself. A queen of manipulation, she plays everyone she knows like pawns, moving them around in a cruel little game where no one wins but her. As long as you associate with Riley, you’re teetering on a hill, and you’re going to fall fast.

When one first becomes acquainted with Riley, she comes off as one of those beautiful, posh, preppy girls who rule the world and everyone wants to be them. She has a knack for playing the role that a person wants to see. If you want to meet a sweet, giving, young lady, then that’s who she will show you, at least until she’s got you under her spell. The moment Riley gains trust or approval, she busts out of her act and shows her true self. The real her is greedy and vicious, to name a few. She’s beautiful, but poisonous. However, she’s as addicting as the drugs she takes. Once you get a taste of Riley, there’s no going back. Many have tried to tell her off, or rid themselves of her plague, but she simply won’t have it.

If there is something that Riley wants, you better believe that she’s going to get it. Clothes, jewelry, cars, boys…you name it. If she wants it, it’s hers. Thanks to her parents and their wealth, the only thing she really has to put effort into getting is the guys. But let’s be honest, even that isn’t very hard for her. Riley is young, blonde, and easy. What straight guy would turn that down? However, once she actually gets the guy, it’s bon voyage for them. It is very typical for Riley to get bored with a guy after a few days, maybe a week at most. She’ll have her way with them and then move on. No goodbyes, nothing.

Maybe because her mother owns a modeling agency or maybe because she really doesn’t think she’s skinny enough, Riley suffers from severe anorexia. The disease started at a very young age, before she reached eleven years old. She is extremely secretive about it though, and not ever her lifelong best friend knows it. God forbid anyone ever found out, it would ruin her. Riley is a slave to her eating disorder and it has her trained well. She knows just how to hide it from everyone. No treatment has been sought, and it is very likely that it will plague her for the rest of her life.

Plenty of people say that they party too much to be healthy. Well it is actually true for Riley. Mixed with her anorexia, it could potentially be deadly. When she was fifteen, Riley heard rumors that doing cocaine made you lose weight. Being the weight freak that she is, she immediately took it up. It never stopped. Along with the yayo, Riley’s other drug of choice is ecstasy. She loves to roll, even though her closest friends advise her not to. She drinks like an old Irishman and has no problem passing out in the nearest bathroom after puking out everything in her stomach. Even after going to rehab, she sticks to her bad habits. Riley’s friends have thought about staging an intervention, but nothing has gone down yet.

Riley is desperate for her father’s attention. It is the one thing in the world that she can’t get. Because her father was determined to have a boy, Riley has never lived up to his standards. She wants so badly to have his approval, but she just can’t seem to get it. Despite what the rest of the world sees, she is very lonely. She wants more than anything to have a sister or a brother, but that’s just not how it turned out. Riley knows that the only child is suppose to be adored and cherished by the parents, and she just doesn’t understand why her father doesn’t love her.

Riley is always one step ahead of what is “in”. Because her mother runs a modeling agency, she has major connections to designers. She passes nearly everything on to her daughter. When people ask her where she gets her clothes, Riley’s response is simple, “Don’t bother, you won’t find it anywhere for months.” She prides herself on looking top notch. Riley knows all the secrets to what makes you look skinnier and what is a death wish.

sample post
When a moderate amount of pressure – say a footstep – is pressed against sand, the impact doesn’t disturb the ground inches away. There is no audible sound, especially with the sounds of the waves crashing accompanying it. Ainsley was also completely oblivious to what was happening around her. She had a habit of letting herself get caught in the serenity of the natural world. It happened all the time, whether or not she was surrounded by people. Ains had a tendency to get distracted in classes too. Even if she was sitting on the side of the room furthest from a window, she would find herself staring at the clouds, or some cute squirrel cracking open a nut. She was studious, but her focus wasn’t always in the right place.

At that moment, her mind was on nothing but the sun rising over the ocean. She definitely wasn’t listening for footsteps creeping up behind her. To spectators, the next minute was probably fairly amusing. Though she not only knew the sound of Austin’s voice, but she was also very comfortable with it; Ains had not been expecting it. The sudden noise behind her made her jump, kicking up sand in random directions. Of course she realized who it was before turning around, so when she faced him her face was flushed with red, which she hoped was masked by the colors in the sky. Collecting herself quickly, she shifted on her blanket to make room for him. “Is this a dream?” She said with a laugh, rubbing her eyes. “Austin Scott not only awake before sunrise, but out and about??” Smiling, she patted the seat next to her. “Wanna sit? Unless you have some important business to attend to.” Ainsley grinned, knowing that was probably the last thing he was up to.

Austin was someone who Ainsley had always felt pretty at ease with. Once they had gotten past their initial feelings, things had gone pretty smoothly. She was glad that she rarely let first impressions rule her opinions of people, because she hadn’t been in the best of moods when the two of them had met. Thankfully, everything had settled out, and Austin was now one of her closer friends. She had grown accustomed to his ways and generally knew what to expect from him. But when she caught his eye and saw that boyish smile of his, she couldn’t help but notice the slight tug on her heartstrings. Things like that had been happening lately when she saw him. Ainsley didn’t know how to react to it, so she’d just swept it under the carpet. More so, though she’d never admit it even to herself, she’d been avoiding him a little. They didn’t hang out on a normal basis, but she had excused herself from the last rendezvous they’d planned. It made her feel sheepish and vulnerable, two things she dreaded. Ignoring the restlessness in her stomach, and tried to act normal.

Noticing a coffee in his hand too, she raised a brow. Austin wasn’t a known coffee drinker, and this was a rarity. “Whatcha got there? Or do you even know what it is..” She laughed lightly and cursed herself in her mind for acting like an idiot. Conversation generally came naturally to her, and she hoped that he couldn’t tell that this was the slightest bit forced. With a sigh, she stretched out her legs and leaned back on her elbows. Ains suddenly wished that she had been wearing something different. Here she was, laying on a blanket in some bohemian skirt..not flattering at all. Austin was used to girls who flaunted what they had. Something like this had never bothered her before. This was a girl who was nearly always 100% confident with herself, not letting anyone else’s opinions get her down. This is ridiculous, she thought to herself. The two of them were friends, good friends, and she had no reason to be nervous. Staring out into the ocean, she smirked to herself. “Isn’t it beautiful?”
