Beckett Gallo

Personality:
A rich bitch with style. That was Beckett’s MO basically. She’s a party girl with a string of exes and a sense of adventure. Beckett loves to see new places and meet new people, but they have to earn her approval, or she will screw them over royally. She’s the type of girl to act first and think later, all about having fun.

Under her armour Beck could be a completely different person but it’s been so long since she took it off that she has no clue what is underneath and the real her.

History:
Beckett was born and raised in San Francisco, although not completely by the same people. Her biological parents were Arthur and Sandra Gallo, a loving couple who ran their own diner. Life was great and, despite not being rich, they were a happy couple who doted on their little girl. Beck was a bubbly, outgoing child who loved her life.

But then the accident happened.

It was a stormy night in San Fran when Beck’s mother went into labour with her baby brother and so off the family went to the hospital. Unfortunately, the car never made it. Beck has never been able to remember exactly what happened other than the fact that one minute, they were driving along and then the next thing she knew she was waking up in a hospital bed an orphan and only child. At just 10 years old her world had changed forever.

Once she had recovered enough to leave hospital, Beckett was sent to live with her estranged aunt and her family, despite still being on crutches with her leg in a cast. The only good thing about the arrangement was that she got to stay in the same city; but that was the only good thing. Her new family was the complete opposite of where she’d come from money wise. The entire diner her parents had run would’ve fit into the living room of her new home. Combine that with the fact that the place had a personal gym, swimming pool and 6 bedrooms, it was a different world. Beck’s new adoptive parents were James and Alissa Morgan. James worked in Silicon Valley as a very high paid tech guru while Alissa was a socialite. Their 3 children Derek, Cynthia and Brooke were spoilt to hell and back and certainly did not like getting a new sibling, even Brooke who was younger than Beck and only 5 at the time.

Initially Beckett tried to make the best of things, but it soon became clear that they were never going to truly accept her. By the time she was 12 there was a rock-hard shell of armour around her true self and a front of not caring and hardness was in place. Sure, they took her on all the family vacations and gave her all the money she could ever want. She had clothes galore and was basically living every girl’s dream, so it was no surprise when she fell in with the popular kids at school.

When it was time for high school, the Morgans didn’t hesitate in shipping her off to boarding school in Oregon where, for most of the year, she was no longer their problem. Beck doesn’t get bad grades, but she doesn’t get great ones. She does enough to get by while still skipping classes and having fun. No surprise, she found her way into the popular rich kid crowd once again thanks to her façade and that’s where she’s been ever since freshman year.
