We will gladly accept you with open arms, but first... what is your name?"[/style]
'Woah, that’s a lot of information to be asking someone for Merri, the least you could do is take me on a date first. Oh, and by the way guys, you’re both amazing at your jobs…No thank you? Alright then.’ Drake turned back towards Meredith and the suite men headed back out the door they’d all just walked in. Drake politely sat down in the seat across from Meredith, who didn’t at all seem enthused by his antics. She stared at him, and he blankly stared back, allowing a silence to creep through the room. He struggled to keep his eyelids open, but finally he was forced to blink.
‘Damn it! You’re good at this aren’t you Merri? Alright, my name is Drake Ryan Caldwell. But you and I, we’re definitely gonna be on a first name basis, so just call me Drake. Umm…what else did you ask me? Oh yeah, and I’m eighteen years old, or young, whichever you prefer. In other words…It’s legal.’ Drake gave a wink to the blonde haired dean sitting across from him. Still she kept her face stern, showing how unimpressed she was. He leaned back in the chair and scratchethe back of his head, realizing that he still hadn’t answered all of her questions yet.
‘You are a hard one to crack, miss dean. This is a little weird to answer considering you’re sitting right across from me, but my hair is dark brown as you can plainly see. There’s a few specks of blond in their but brown for the most part. Can I be honest with ya dean? These questions are kind of annoying? Can I go now? Everything else you wanna know you can see just looking at me. ’ Drake stood up and stretched his arms out wide, allowing Meredith to take a good look at his entire build. The young man stood at roughly five feet and ten inches in height. Not the tallest but not too short either. He was extremely lean as well, weighing in at one hundred and seventy pounds, with the majority of that weight being made up in muscle. One of his brightest features however was his clear blue eyes.

Now, before we can accept you, we must know what your records are. Can you tell them to me, please?"[/style]
’Jesus, and I thought the first set of questions was intrusive. You must really like me huh Merri? Well alright, I’ll play this little game with you a little longer.’ Drake sat back in his seat, releasing a heavy sigh as he thought about how to explain his past to this intrusive woman. ‘Where to begin? Hmm…I was born and raised in beautiful San Diego, California. My dad owned his own accounting firm. I know, pretty boring right, but he made plenty of money, so my mom was able to stay at home and take care of little ol’ me. I Never had any brothers and sisters, thank goodness for that. It wasn’t my parents choosing, but after I was born my mom went through some medical issues and ended up needing a hysterectomy, which obviously meant no more children. Honestly I don’t really I don’t’ really mind being an only child. All my friends younger siblings are pretty annoying.’
Growing up I was always a pretty good kid. I never got into much trouble until high school. Well actually there was this one time in middle school that my buddy Trevor dared me to grab this girl’s boobs in gym class. The girl’s name was Jessica, and she was a bit chubby so she started blooming up top a little earlier than the other girls. I took that bet, and boy did she slap the crap out of me. Funny thing is later that day after school she kissed me. It was my first kiss, but definitely not my last if you know what I mean.’ Drake winked at Meredith, continuing to flirt with the completely uninterested adult. By now it was probably clear that Drake was heterosexual. If all the flirting hadn’t told Meredith as much, then surely the last story had done the trick.
‘Then came high school. That’s when I started wrestling, which quickly turned into mixed martial arts. I’m sure you know what that is. Anyways, I was pretty damn good at it if I’m being completely honest, just ask your boys who grabbed me. I’m sure you know how I ended up here though. My dad has always been a pretty straight forward guy, so when they found out about my gift he flat out told me this is where I was headed. I wasn’t too fond of the idea so I took off, but you guys sure no how to find a guy.’ {style=width: 501px; background-color: 141414; font-size: 10px; padding: 5; font-family: garamond; color: 7a6252; text-transform: uppercase; text-align:justify; letter-spacing: 1; border-top: 10px solid #0f0f0f; border-bottom: 10px solid #0f0f0f;}"Fascinating. Seeing as you'll be on the campus of Ashes, we must know what your personality is like. Are you gifted?"[/style]
’Am I gifted? Oh you bet your ass I’m gifted. Oh, you meant my powers? I can create and control electricity. Check it out.’ Drake held up a single hand and electric waves became visible, glowing in a blue aura as they swam around his hand. He then looked up at the light and caused it to dim down, in a way that most might consider romantic. ‘I told you I could show you a good time Merri. I’ll set the mood, you bring the wine and we’ll be good to go…’ Once again there was that awkward silence between the two of them. He sighed again, before continuing on. ‘Seriously you’re no fun, Merri, loosen up.
You asked about my personality too though didn’t you? Well if you haven’t noticed by now I’m quite charismatic.’ Drake was definitely a charming young man. Overtime he’d always proven able to talk himself out of just about any situation, or talk himself into a situation if you want to look at it that way. It was certainly a gift. ‘There was this one girl who said I was too cocky, but whatever what does she know? She was just too uptight. If there’s one thing I can’t stand its people who are all stuck up and don’t know how to let loose and just have a good time. Umm, what else? Oh, I always flirting with girls, and I found that the best way to really get them to like you is by always being honest. Seriously, it’s that easy. I’m always honest with everyone, sometimes brutally so, but whatever, I speak my mind. People who don’t like it will end up thanking me later.
Let’s see, oh I’m also pretty competitive but I’m sure you already know that judging by my wrestling win streak in high school. I hate to lose, no matter what it is. If you lose at something that means you’re not trying as hard as you can. That’s what my dad taught me and out of everything my old man said, that’s the one thing I believe the most. Someone has to be the loser, but it doesn’t have to be me. ’ Drake let out a huge yawn and stretched his arms up into the air. He’d only been here for a few minutes but it felt like forever. If he was going to stay at this school he wanted to hurry up and get on with it.
‘Some of my favorite things to do are watch and play basketball. I’m a huge Laker fan! Going to the movies can be fun, if you’ve got the right group or friends or girl with you. Working out is also a must do for anyone. I didn’t really start working out until I get into wrestling, but fat guys definitely have an automatic disadvantage when it comes to being successful. Think about it, how many fat actors are there compared to the ones that are in shape.’ {style=width: 501px; background-color: 141414; font-size: 10px; padding: 5; font-family: garamond; color: 7a6252; text-transform: uppercase; text-align:justify; letter-spacing: 1; border-top: 10px solid #0f0f0f; border-bottom: 10px solid #0f0f0f;}"Brilliant! When you come to Ashes, it is very easy to get mixed up on what you want to do later in life. Let's clear up that confusion now while we have the chance. What would you like to do in the future?"[/style]
[’This is the last question? Thank god! Okay well, ever since I got started, I’ve wanted to be a professional wrestler. Not like the guys you see on WWE or anything like that. No, I wanna get involved with UFC, MMA and things like that. I’m pretty damn, good and if you win you make great money. And I already told, losing isn’t something I’m very good at. As far as this school goes, I just wanna graduate and get the fuck out; simple as that, and hopefully have a good time while doing it. Learning how to control this a little better, is just an extra benefit. Now if you’ll excuse me…I’m gonna go explore the school.’ Drake stood to his feet letting electricity course through his eyes, and offering one final wink to his new dean, before turning around and heading out the room. {style=width: 501px; background-color: 141414; font-size: 10px; padding: 5; font-family: garamond; color: 7a6252; text-transform: uppercase; text-align:center; letter-spacing: 1; border-top: 10px solid #0f0f0f; border-bottom: 10px solid #0f0f0f;}PLAYED BY Edge.[/style]

just a few things: - post in face claims - post in who's who - make an 'about me' thread and link it there - put your name in your personal text second in parentheses '( edge )'
