Simon Riley. As of now, he was in his late teens, teetering the line between 17 and 18. And with that, he was offered the chance to be an exchange student. See, it wasn’t far. From the UK to California. But to him, someone who had hardly even left his town, it was magnificent. He found himself.. quite excited! And that was good, for it was chosen like a lottery on which gifted student would go, all expenses paid, and Simon won. He was lucky.

Simon was a.. particularly good looking teen, even for his age. He was roughly 6’2 or so, had blonde hair, dark brown eyes, etc. He was pale as of now, but he could always get a tan in.. California. That still felt odd, but so exciting. And when the day came, he said goodbye to his friends, hopped aboard a plane, and sooner or later, he was in beautiful Cali. Waves crashed and hit along beautiful pale sandy beaches. Though he was only here for a school year, he would make it last. He would be studying at a prestigious California high school, and would have the ability to learn more about.. whatever he intended to.

After a week in California, he was really enjoying it. He got away from his.. otherwise stressful home life, and could soak up the sun, go buy drinks, play volleyball, etc. Beach life in 2003 was unmatched. But on this particular day, he was laying on a lounge chair by the beach, relaxing under the sun. It was never this warm in Manchester. A tall, shadowy figure covered him and he opened his eyes. Hm. It was a boy. He had dyed black hair, wore baggy jeans, a baggy shirt, held a skateboard, etc. It appeared that they may actually get along. They were both into darker stuff, too. Simon just didn’t look it, as his swim trunks and flip flops didn’t show much of his style. He sat up and made conversation with the boy, explaining his situation, that stuff. They chatted for a good 20 minutes until someone else walked over to the boy. He held a surf board, had curly blonde hair that just about reached his shoulder, and was in a tank top and swim trunks. Hm. They… appeared to be twins. They just dressed different and the more alternative one dyed his hair black. Coolness. He placed a hand on his brothers shoulder and asked about Simon.

((This is intended to be one of those “choose your love interest” things. You can choose to be the surfer boy, or skater boy, and that will immediately make you the love interest, just.. slowly, obviously. I tried to be vague on how they dressed so it would give room to change it up, and feel free to edit this as you please. And remember this, all roads lead to early 2000s California :3. They’re all the same age btw!!))
