Full Name: Collin Oliver Wolfe. He'll answer to Col (and his brother likes to call him Linny) but he'll always introduce himself as Collin.
Age: 18, born on December thirty first. Brutha throws da best New Year's Eve/Birthday parties. He's a senior.
Clubs/Sports: Basketball and Newspaper.
Appearance: Collin stands at a relatively large height of six foot four, making him pretty much perfect for the basketball team. He's also a stick, though, weighing in a bit under what's recommended and considered "healthy". Its true he's got a bit of an eating disorder and he's a work out junkie, but shhhh don't tell no one. And on the topic of working out, he's really not a body builder. He works out daily, but only to keep his body exactly as it is. He has no interest in gaining any more muscle. He just doesn't want to lose what he's already got. Which, for the record, is a pretty nice pair of arms and a great upper body. His legs are pretty thin, but strong nonetheless. Don't be doubtin' his mad hops, yo.
Kept short, his hair is a dark brown. In some light, its almost black. Naturally its extremely curly and if he let it grow out, it would be incredibly tight ringlets. He thinks it looks really girly, though, so he keeps his hair short. So short you could almost call it a buzz. His eyes, like his hair, are also brown. But they're more of a warm brown, kind of like caramel.
Collin is a jock, and his wardrobe shows it. Tight fitting tee shirts, baggy basketball shorts and over-sized sneakers basically sums up his usual outfit. Interestingly enough, though, Collin only owns one pair of sweatpants. If he's not in shorts (be it basketball or cargo), he's rocking jeans. His sweats are only for basketball practice or sleep. He'll never wear them out of the house (dorm?).
Personality: Collin is a pretty chill dude. He doesn't like to make waves with people and just wants to be on everybody's good side. He's a definite people pleaser, always sure to do whatever he can to make you smile. The kid is funny as hell with a sassy/sarcastic tone. He can be super immature about sexual jokes and won't hesitate to throw out the 'that's what she said'. Its a classic and he loves it.
He's incredibly self conscious, especially about his body. He's learned to be okay with his face.. but his body? Not so much. He works out daily to keep it fit and thin. Easily flattered, Collin blushes a lot. Even just smiling at him he'll pull a Bashful and look away all cute like. He gets loud really easily; he likes to draw attention to himself. Truthfully, he's a bit of a nutcase. He's very active, loves to run around and is always up for a game of tag. Sometimes he doesn't quite act his age and can come off as rather childish.. but give him a moment and he'll snap back to the relaxed dude most people know. If he's weird around you, its just cuz he's comfortable with you.
Generally, Collin is just the kid that likes to have a good time. His motto is "live today like you'll die tomorrow" and sticks to it. Parties, drinking, fucking, loads of friends.. Collin is all about living in the now. He's at his prime age and he's ready to have a good time.
Background: Collin was fourteen years old when he was diagnosed with anorexia. Truth be told, he'd been suffering since he was thirteen.. but Kelly Wolfe still kicks herself for having only noticed a year later.
"I don't know where my mind was. Its not like he didn't ever eat.. but when he did, it was very little. Breakfast was an orange, lunch was an apple and dinner was maybe a bite of steak with a piece of broccoli. I thought for a while that he was just trying to keep in shape, what with all the working out he did. Nathan even bought a home gym set for Collin. I really don't know how I didn't possibly notice. And it hurts to think that I could've helped my son sooner.
We had him checked into a rehab center when he was fourteen. Fourteen years old.. he was only a baby. It felt so horrible to give him away to that place. It felt horrible because for one, I was leaving my child in a home with a bunch of people I and he didn't know. But on the other hand, it tore me apart to know that I had to give my son to people that could help him because I couldn't. Do you know how gut wrenching it is to be slapped in the face with a "you can't help your son, so we will"? Its like having your heart ripped right out of your chest. It was the biggest failure I ever felt.
When did I decide to have him checked in? Well, it was Nathan's call, firstly. But I found Collin passed out on a lifting machine. He was hunched forward, hands gripping the little straps that you pulled back. A rowing machine, I think that's what they call it. But yea, he was gone. I'd honestly thought I'd lost him. We brought him to a hospital first.. there they told us that he was dangerously underweight and had passed out because his body was literally starving. He didn't have enough nutrition to keep going.
At six feet tall, Collin weighed only one hundred pounds. That's nearly eighty pounds underweight. I'll never forget the way his ribs looked when the doctors took his shirt off in the emergency room."
On his sixteenth birthday, Collin was released from rehab and registered at Somerset High. Since his check in date, Collin has gained back sixty five pounds. He's eating again. Still not as much as he should be, but he's eating and maintaining a relatively healthy weight. He works out on a daily basis to keep himself thin, as he does still in fact suffer from anorexia. But with the help of his family and monthly therapy sessions, Collin has come quite far.
Other: Collin is the youngest of three. His older siblings are John (at twenty seven) and Isabelle (at twenty four).
Collin carries his 'food journal' with him everywhere he goes in case he spontaneously eats something.
Honestly, Collin's anorexia isn't nearly as bad as it was four years ago. He eats rather well now, he just works out so much that it doesn't show.
Collin is a bit of a music junkie. He's especially in love with music like David Guetta (his favorite song is Titanium), Macklemore, Kendrick Lamar, Knife Party and Maroon Five.
He thinks he's way cooler than he actually is.
Though he's not very good in relationships, Collin is not the kind of guy for a one night stand (unless he was drunk). He's not a hit and run kind of guy. Odds are, if he wants to have sex with you.. he wants to have it with just you for a while. A while being like.. a month. And that's about how long most of his relationships last. Then he gets bored and moves on.
He's cheated before.. but isn't proud of it.
Collin's favorite color is light blue.
Collin is actually a quite talented pianist. He took lessons for nine years, starting when he was five and stopping when he was fourteen.
