As he leaned against the classroom's newly painted doorway, no one could see the beauty behind the self-inflicted art. His glossy hazel eyes peered through his half-mast lids and the small wad of peppermint gum rolled around inside his tight, chiseled jaw. His bottom lip was hooked with a silver cuff near the left corner of his mouth as well as a diamond stud in the flesh directly under the lip. The right side of his nostril was decorated with three nose rings, each a different size. The boy's eyebrow had multiple piercing scars, but only one ring hung from the edge of the dark brown brow.

The boy's hair was cropped short with long spiked bangs and a peroxided blond streak arching over his left eye. If that wasn't enough to make people talk about him in the most negative ways possible, his clothing was made up of thick combat boots, olive green cargo pants, a white t-shirt, and a black zip-up jacket.
