Things were great for the small family. They lived in a safe neighborhood and right across the street was Alexa, Marley's best friend. The two girls were inseparable. They would have tea parties in the treehouse that was built in the backyard and do all the other things little girls would do. That was right up until Alexa's father left. All good things must come to an end and this was Marley's first taste of it. The Carters managed to keep the place for a little longer but eventually moved across town into an apartment. Marley and Alexa still saw each other everyday at school so they coped well and everything seemed good for the time being. When Alexa was seven, her mother left one day and didn't come back, leaving Alexa in the care of her older brother, Jeremy, who was just seventeen at the time. However, when Marley was ten, tragedy struck again. Marley's mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Marley didn't tell anyone for fear that they would think she was crazy. Their father managed to stick through two years of the illness before he, just like Alexa's father, picked up and left. Her brother was fourteen at the time and had to drop out of school and lie on job applications to get a job and make ends meet. He finally got a job at the diner and worked every hour that he could to make sure there was food on the table. Soon they had to move from their house, however and moved into a smaller one, closer to the diner and Marley's school. Things were tough for the Bishop siblings but they managed to make things work. Since the girls lived closer together again, they stuck together, especially since both their brothers worked a lot and they weren't in a good neighborhood. But again, things settled and were looking good. They each had their trials but all looked well. Occasionally Marley's mother would have hallucinations which would result in some bruising on Marley but it was all alright. Just after Alexa turned twelve, her mother showed up with a two year old baby, Zacky. Her mother stuck around for a week before taking off and leaving the young girl in charge of the baby. Jeremy watched Zacky while Alexa went to school and then Marley and Alexa would come back and take care of the little boy. But life looked up when Marley was fourteen. The young girl met the most enchanting man. He was seventeen and a little rough around the edges but Marley fell so in love with Forrest King. At first, he wasn't interested in her because he was hung up on his brother's girlfriend/the girl he'd loved all his life but Marley turned out to be a good friend and a good listener. The first night they hung out, Forrest, a tattoo artist, tattoo'd Marley's collar bone with the words 'a little out of touch, a little insane'. The pair grew closer and closer till finally, one night they started talking about sex. They were at the park, sitting on the swings when Forrest turned to Marley and told her he wanted to have sex with her. Both were virgins at the time and Marley, already head over heels for the boy agreed. They went back to the house he lived in with his older brother, his younger sister and the girl he'd been in love with and they had sex, after which, he drew a hot bath for her and set her in to help with the pain. She stayed the night that night and Forrest rolled over, looked her in the eye and asked her to be his girlfriend. Of course she said yes. The next day, after school, Forrest showed up at her doorstep, insisting to meet her mom since they were now dating but that didn't go so well. It didn't take but a few minutes for her mother to chase them out of the house with a knife and they ran as fast as they could back to his place where Forrest looked at her and said he didn't want her going back. Marley moved in with him and that's how Alexa met Powys, Forrest's royal cousin. Powys was rich, powerful, and thought of himself as better than anyone else. Alexa was poor, down-to-earth and black. Throwing the pair of them together resulted in an exchange of words. Soon, Marley was emancipated and working as a techie for famous rock band, Passenger Seat, and Alexa and Powys - Duke of Carmenshire - were dating. Again, all seemed right with the world but then, Marley had to move to England to keep her job (and her emancipation) and she was forced to leave Forrest behind. Three weeks later, Forrest and Hannah (his little sister), showed up on her doorstep with their luggage, prepared to move in. That day would forever go on record as the happiest day in Marley's life. Alexa and Powys moved to England too with Zacky in tow. One day, Zacky was kidnapped by Alexa's mother and Powys, being the man of power he was, flew Alexa out on his private jet and they picked up the little boy from a drug dealer's house where Alexa's mom had traded the then five year old boy for a baggie of cocaine. The pair returned by the stress had taken it's toll on Alexa and Powys whisked her away to his mansion on an island somewhere, leaving Forrest and Marley with Zacky for two weeks. The pair fell in love with having a baby around and decided, despite being so young, to try for a baby themselves. But that was easier said than done. They tried and tried and every month when Marley got her period, it crushed their hearts. Both felt like failures and it wasn't made any easier when Alexa showed up and broke the news that she, herself was pregnant by accident. Marley resented Alexa but the very next month, Marley found out that she too was pregnant. Pregnancy suited Marley and she loved the little boy that grew in her stomach. His name was Maverick King. It became clear that Marley was made to be a mother. When Maverick was born, Marley and Forrest were happy as can be. Unfortunately, along with everything else, all good things have to come to an end and at three months old, Maverick died from SIDs. Parents have a hard time keeping things together when their children die and Forrest and Marley didn't succeed. After having tried so hard for their baby, to have him taken away like that absolutely destroyed both of them and Marley eventually moved back to the United States to work for another band and Forrest made it clear he wasn't following. In the last two months, Marley's lost everything she ever loved. She currently sleeps on park benches and keeps a gym pass for shower use. She doesn't advertise her history any comes off as a mysterious girl because of it. A Few Things to Know oo1. Marley is probably one of the most inspiring people you'll ever meet. Despite having lost everything she loves, she still presses on. She smiles and associates with people but there is a sadness in her, the kind that only comes from great tragedy. She has yet to tell anyone about her baby or what she's been through. oo2. She's got three tattoos and her nipples and her clit pierced. One tattoo is on her collarbone and say 'a little outta touch, a little insane'. On her left rib cage, she has Forrest's name in big letters and on the tip of her left forefinger, she has a tiny heart. oo3. Marley has unexplainable fits sometimes. They started just after she moved in with Forrest. Whenever she'd get stressed out about whether or not Forrest still wanted to be with his brother's girlfriend or not, she'd find herself staring in the mirror and after just a short while, she started ripping at her hair and clawing at herself uncontrollably. This happens when she opens up to someone and gets rejected. It hasn't happened since before she found out she was pregnant because giving birth to her son had been fulfilling but I imagine if she tries to open up to someone else again, they are going to have to deal with it.
