Hallie Grey (345 views)

Henrietta Millicent Grey

Hallie, she hates her full name and never goes by it. She’s been called Hal, Ms. Grey, and ‘Fifty Shades’ before. She doesn’t mind nicknames (as long as she’s not called Henrietta).

18 going on 19, her birthday is March 13th. She attends the college and is a freshman.

She’s a model.

Modeling, and her grades are... questionable, but she’s working with a tutor to keep them up (and to keep her spot in Metric).

Female

Bisexual

Hallie works at the local supermarket in Salem, as a cashier and bagger. She’s worked many part-time jobs in her life and is currently looking for a second.

Hallie is known as a total party girl. She does like modeling, but lacks in school and is a bit of an airhead despite how cool she might seem. She doesn’t mind beign airheaded, though, and in fact embraces it, earning herself many friends who respect that but also many enemies who don’t respect that she just accepts that about herself. She calls them haters.

Lola is her best friend since high school. When the girls moved to college, they met Jasleen, and the three quickly became a power-trio in the party crowd. Through them she also knows Gio, who’s pretty nice and gets along really well with Jasleen – Hallie ships it.

She’s friends with Amy O’Neal and Chad Richardson as well and with Chad, she’s friends-with-benefits. She’s hooked up with a boy named Declan before she knew he was in High School, but when she did find that out she was only muffled about it for a moment! He’s old enough anyway and the sex was hot. She likes him well enough but doesn’t know him well nor has she hooked up with him since – though she wouldn’t be opposed!

She met Maxine through Lola and thinks that she’s cool and hot – though since Lola has her eyes set on her at the moment, Hallie’s refrained from hitting on her. Hallie also gets along well with Ethan, Maxine’s friend, who she’s pretty sure has a little crush on her. Hallie thinks it’s cute but doesn’t want anything long term or serious, so she takes his flirtations and comments with a grain of salt.

Hallie doesn’t really like a lot of people, even though she came to Metric with the purpose of making friends. Wyatt Prescott is a fellow model and she’s such a diva that Hallie finds her exhausting to deal with, and doesn’t get how Chad’s friends with her (wait never mind – she’s hot Hallie understands perfectly). Hallie considers her a rival in the modeling industry and thinks she needs to chill out. She also doesn’t like Chardonnay much from what she’s heard from her friends but barely knows her. And, if someone dislikes Lola or Jas, they immediately go on Hallie’s enemy list!

Single. She’s a player, and doesn’t want to settle down. Though she might like a relationship someday, she feels like all the people she meets in college are looking for flings and aren’t faithful. She has little trust in relationships and so she avoids commitment.

None. She does love to hang out with the cosmo students, though.

She is 5’9” tall, with long legs and arms. She’s very skinny and no matter how much she seems to eat, she doesn’t put on weight, which is good for her especially for her job. She’s very confident and always walks with a good stride, and has no qualms with showing off her figure in scanty dresses, lingerie, and booty shorts. However she does tend to slack off when it comes to classroom and work outfits – she likes to feel sexy, but there’s a time and a place for being sexy, and class time and worktime aren’t it!

Brown, naturally curly, but she likes to straighten it and have it hang down. She likes her hair, and I quote, “long enough to cover [her] nipples, like a mermaid.”

Her eyes are brown, and she wears makeup sometimes but not all the time. She’ll do it nicely for photoshoots and parties, but for long days at work or of class, she’ll keep it simple.

It depends on the situation. For parties and social events she’ll dress sexy, in tight fitting clothing and done up makeup. For casual days, she’ll wear jeans and tees. She has no qualms to stripping in front of people or being naked in front of others.

Hallie’s very proud of her clear skin and flexibility.

North Maple, Maine

A 2008 Buck Enclave. When she decided to move all the way out to Salem for school, she used her savings from her job to purchase a car. She’s still making payments on it and, admittedly, makes a lot of mistakes while driving, but hasn’t died yet so all is well! Hopefully, anyway.

Hallie was born in a small town called North Maple in the state of Maine. Two years after she was born, she was given a little brother, Felix. Hallie was always a very loud and attention seeking child so her parents were driven up the wall by Hallie’s constant crying and running around the house by the time she could walk. They had to hire a babysitter for some of the time while they went to work and the poor girl was driven insane by Hallie, while baby Felix was generally a much less aggravating child to watch.

The Greys did not live in poverty, but they were not what you’d call “rich”. In fact, they were the lower end of the working class. Hallie grew up knowing that they had enough money to live realitively comfortably, but Hallie grew up frugal and knowing that there were many times she had to reserve money and not ask her parents for the fancy new toys. Hallie longed to please her parents and she thought that by becoming frugal she could do that. Hallie holds a lot of respect and love for her mother and father and has always looked up them. When she was about 12 she realized that her family was growing more distant though. Her mother and father came home from work tired and rugged, and her brother was starting to hole himself up in his room and refuse to come out.

Hallie didn’t approve of this and she instigated the family game night plan. Basically every Tuesday, Hallie dragged her parents and brother to the living room where she forced them to play a game with her for at least an hour. At first they stuck to board games and got a laugh about how overdramatic Felix was when he lost, flipping the board in rage. But as they got bored of the board games, they started to play other games like charades in teams of two – usually Hallie and their dad VS Felix and their mom. As technology advanced so did their games and they played things on gaming consoles, games like Mario party. (Hallie’s always Waluigi. She’ll fight you if you try to play him.)

Hallie went to high school wanting to make more friends than she had in middle school. She had a close relationship with her family, but not really one with friends at all. Her freshman year of high school, Hallie made a group of friends and got her first boyfriend, a boy named Kyle. Hallie was happy her freshman year and that was also the year her brother, still in middle school, got a camera. He started taking pictures of Hallie who wanted to model for him. His preference was scenery shots, but Hallie was good at posing with the scenery and had the right aesthetics to really bounce off of it. Hallie and Felix started to go out every Wednesday night and go a ‘photoshoot’. That was what really brought her closer to her brother, because he grew up to be a very reclusive and secretive entity. In fact when he wasn’t out with Hallie of with everyone on family game night, Felix holed himself up in his room and basted scream music. Hallie still doesn’t quite understand him or his music taste, but she loves him anyway.

At the beginning of her sophomore year, Hallie broke up with Kyle and dated a boy named Ivan instead. He was probably Hallie’s first lost and the first guy Hallie ever thought she was going to be serious about. Hallie and he went to the dance together and she even introduced him to her family towards the end of the year. They were still together when Hallie got into the party scene – in fact, Ivan invited her – and she got a job at a local pizza place at 16.

When Hallie enrolled in her junior year of high school she met her best friend, Lola. She was new and Hallie extended a friendly hand of help to her. She integrated Lola into the party scene and the two quickly became sort of queen bee types over at their high school. Unfortunately while in her junior year, Hallie also went through one of the worst experiences of her life – her boyfriend, Ivan, had been cheating on her for over a year. You could say that it was just a young love and that Hallie really didn’t know any better, but she’d given everything for that relationship and to have it just fall apart at the beginning of her junior year really hurt. Lola was her rock during that time and it was thanks to having a best friend she could be so close to that she got over Ivan. Her junior year was full of wild partying and mindless hookups. Before this Ivan had been the only person she slept with, but after they broke up she because a little harlot, acting out and trying to prove to Ivan she didn’t need him by sleeping with all his friends. It worked. Hallie also discovered her sexuality while she was at a party and made out with a girl for show – but wound up liking it more than the guys who wanted her after.

While Hallie was going through her breakup, her relationship with her family got a little tense. Her parents had no idea she was out partying, as she snuck out frequently. She canceled on her brother numerous times for their ‘shoots’, and she was distant during game night.

One night Hallie was going to sneak out to go to a party towards the end of her junior year, but Felix caught her. Instead of letting her go out Felix threatened to wake their parents and forced Hallie to stay at home with him. It was kind of awkward at first, but eventually Felix managed to ask her what was wrong lately. And there was something about that moment in which Hallie just crumbled. She told Felix what had happened with Ivan and got comfort from him she never knew she needed. She didn’t text her best friend until 4 that morning, apologizing for not going to the party after all because her brother caught her. Though she complained about it, in reality Hallie was really thankful for the comfort she got from her brother. After that she made more of an effort to balance spending time with her family with her friends, job, and partying.

Though she started out as just lashing out to get back at her shitty ex, Hallie began to truly own the party scene. Hallie didn’t get in any more relationships after Ivan, scared of putting herself in the position of being committed to risk getting hurt again. She became a bit of a heartbreaker tease too, and wasn’t even apologetic about it. She did meet one guy who was interested in her but she didn’t act upon. That guy was the one who actually suggested to Hallie that she pursue a career in modeling. Hallie wasn’t sure, but gave it a try. Her brother helped her organize her portfolio and agreed to let her use pictures he’d taken.

To Hallie’s surprise, she was accepted into many programs. But the one that stood out most was Metric Academy, the most prestigious academy out in California she’d ever heard of. Hallie wasn’t going to go and was considering just settling down into a day job in North Maple when Lola, her best friend, told her she’d been accepted too! The girls looked into it and, with literally no time to spare, they decided to attend together.

The last summer Hallie spent in North Maple was spent making a few lasting memories with friends she’d be leaving behind in North Maple. Hallie and the boy who recommended her apply for modeling remained friends, but nothing more came of it. Hallie didn’t want to get in a long distance relationship and besides, she wanted to be single to fool around in college.

When Hallie was packing her stuff for the long trip to California, her brother entered her room somewhat reluctantly. Hallie didn’t know why he was there but assumed it was because he was going to miss her or something cheesy like that. Instead he told her there was something he wanted to tell her, and when Hallie gave him her full attention, he told her he was gay. Hallie was started by the suddenness of him saying that, but she laughed and told him that was great. She got up and hugged him, and that was when she could feel him shaking. That was definitely the moment that Hallie felt the closest that she ever had to her little brother. He told her he was scared to tell their parents alone and before they took the trip to California, Hallie sat with Felix across from the living room from their parents as he told them, holding his hand for comfort. Their parents accepted his coming out of the closet wholeheartedly and it’s one of Hallie’s favorite memories of her family being so connected.

Hallie convinced her parents to invite Lola to take the long drive with them since relations with her mom were so bad. After a tear-filled goodbye to their friends from High School, Hallie and Lola headed to Metric to enroll. Since Lola and Hallie had the same suite moving the two of them in was easy. It was the goodbyes that were really hard. Hallie’s parents told both of the girls to be safe and that they’d be up for the annual family formal event that happened at Metric every December to see them. Hallie told them all that if they had time they could come and stay anytime, especially to Felix, if he had had any long breaks he could come stay in Hallie’s suite for a few days (not caring about her other suitemates, but hey, Hallie would miss her brother!).

Now, Hallie’s pretty happy with where she is. Though she still does fear falling in love and getting hurt, now even more intensely than before. She’s scared because she doesn’t want to get serious about someone only to be hurt. She feels like she should have moved on, but really hasn’t.

• On the internet, Hallie poses for risqué photographs and sites for some extra cash. She loves the money and has absolutely no shame about her figure, so she feels as though this shouldn’t be a problem! She posts online under a sexy pseudonym and also is not opposed to offering shady clientele chatroom sex and things like that. She’s met a few creeps, but since she goes by an alias online and none of them have ever figured out her real name or where she lives, she’s fine.
• Going off of this, Beth, Mel, and I have an idea for the future: the three girls get a stalker online who sends them sketchy things, like he creepily shows up in their cam videos and on Hallie’s site where she has online sex with people and says creepy/unnerving stuff. While this is easy to brush off, pretty soon the stuff he says is going to get personal. By that point Hallie will become concerned, because she’s scared of someone online knowing who she is.
• Hallie may be a romantic at heart but has a hard time trusting faithfulness in relationships, especially from men.
