Appearance
Gabe may not be the tallest guy, standing at 5'8, but the rest of his body definitely makes up for it. Don't you dare call him a little guy because once those clothes are ripped off, those words will come back and bite you. He hits the gym four days a week, and when he's not there, he's playing ball -- which makes for some heavy work on his biceps. He has a rockin' body and he knows it, but he won't try and flaunt it in your face, no, his body is a treasure locked up in a chest and you're just going to have to earn the key to unlock it -- sorry, bb. His eyes are a light shade of green with a hint of hazel in the center, which he takes from his mother. They're the first thing you notice about him, those eyes. You'd have to do a double-take just to realize the color.
Personality
Gabe is by far one of the most positive people you'll ever meet. He's not all sugar-canes and honey about it, but he's one of those people who just knows how to make others smile. He always has a grin on his face, flashes those shiny white pearls to others -- he hates it when he smiles at a stranger and they don't smile back. He's just trying to be nice, reflect all that optimism onto other people. Life's short, so you've got to live it to the fullest everyday, make the most out of whatever you're doing -- Gabe puts his all into everything, because if he just lets things slide, doesn't put in his 100%, then it's not worth it. And who says you're going to live forever? Certainly not him. But of course, he's not one to put all seriousness into his actions. Gabe's chill, he's nice to everyone upon meeting. He was put up well, so he has the manners of a great gentleman, which he is. He knows how to treat a lady right, given the opportunity.
He's real, and mainly for the fact that, he doesn't see very many real people out there. Gabe doesn't believe in hiding yourself, who you really are, if you believe in yourself, and you continue being the best you that you can be, all day, everyday, 24/7, then you'll meet people who will be real with you. Why should he fake who he is if all that will do is get him fake friends? He doesn't want that. He's smart in that way -- he can see right through peoples' little acts, their games, it disappoints him, really, to see other teenagers pretending to be something they're not. That's what makes people unhappy, and trust me, he has been there -- that's why he's stopped being that kind of guy.
If you ever need somebody to talk to, someone to vent, just someone to listen to you -- Gabe will be there, he doesn't care who you are. Sometimes he has the tendency to joke around a bit to make you feel better but that doesn't mean he's not taking you seriously, he just wants to lighten the mood. He tries his best to be a good friend and if you doubt that, that will seriously hurt his feelings.
Gabe is nothing close to a softy. Sure, he can be sensitive, he can get in touch with his emotions -- but he is not a pushover. You boss him around, push his buttons, he's not going to take that shit from you. He's independent and he will stand up for himself. Sometimes he doesn't even take the initiative to ask anybody for help when he needs it, dwelling with the fact that he doesn't want to rely on anybody for anything, because once you do that -- how much independence do you really have?
