Being an Earp wasn't always easy. The youngest of the family, Waverly, knew that for sure. With the curse and her father and oldest sister dead, and her other sister constantly being drunk and causing trouble, there wasn't much for Waverly left to be happy. And yet here she was, always friendly. Always smiling and waving.Waverly kinda always felt like an outsider. In school she was bullied just for being part of the Earp family. People would "accidentially" run into her, throw her stuff down and make her fall onto the ground. They would call her names, make fun of her all the time, or just ignore her like she wasn't even there.
All of that changed that one day in her junior year of high school. Champ, the most popular kid in school came to her in a break between two classes and asked her out on a date. At first Waverly thought this was all just a bad joke, that it was some kind of prank for him and his friends. Without really thinking about it, Waverly agreed on that date and to her big surprise, all of that wasn't a joke for Champ. He took her out on the best dates, treated her right, and made sure everyone else did too. He would hold her hand in school and kiss her gently goodbye after classes in the parking lot or when he drove her home to her aunt Gus.
Yes, Champ really was a dreamguy. At least that's what Waverly truly believed in for about five years. After high school she got a job at Shorty's bar. He was a good man and a good friend of her family. Champ worked in a nearby car shop, not even once thinking about going to college. Waverly on the other hand wanted nothing more than getting out of Purgatory. But she knew she couldn't leave. She just couldn't.
Her and Champ moved into a small apartment right after high school, but soon decided that this wasn't a good idea if they wanted to keep their relationship up, and so Champ moved back to his father and Waverly moved into a small room above Shorty's. She didn't have to pay rent and her way to work was just going down the stairs, so it was pretty perfect for her.
When Waverly turned nineteen, she started having doubts in Champ and their relationship. She knew that he started sleeping with other girls months ago, but she never said or did anything about it. Champ was the reason people didn't think of her as a freak anymore. He was the reason the last two years of high school weren't hell like all those years before. He always was her ticket to being loved, or at least, tolerated. She never thought about breaking up with him until that one day. That day her sister, Wynonna Earp, returned to Purgatory and tried getting informations out of Champ by seducing him. Waverly knew that Wynonna would've never gone through with it, she would never sleep with Champ. But the knowledge that her boyfriend of almost six years would actually sleep with her sister made her rethink the choices she'd made.
After long and intense thinking, Waverly did what she should've done much sooner. She broke up with Champ and was ready to face the start of new beginnings.
