Getting up was always the hardest part of the day for Jamie Wolfe, even though it was into the afternoon when he finally woke up. The first thing he noticed was that he wasn't alone in his bed, which was odd. The second thing he noticed was that he definitely had too much to drink the night before. He didn't remember who he had been with or even how many drinks he drank. James turned over and came face to face with a girl he barely recognized. Images came back from the night before, he had been at a party and this one girl had been flirting with him, that's all he remembered. Turned out he had taken her home with him apparently. She stirred and finally opened her eyes to meet his. Unlike him, she must not have had enough to drink because she smiled and bit her lower lip, saying how amazing the night before had been.
Jamie decided to bullshit it and he grinned back, saying he had a great time too. The girl who's name he did not remember seemed like she was going to continue what they had been doing the night before when James' phones went off on his nightstand. Wolfe sighed and separated front the chick and squinted at his cell's screen. It was a text from Ariel, saying it was time to meet up for the road trip.
"Aw shit, sorry, uh-" James wasn't able to recall the girl's name. "You're gonna have to leave, I'm leaving town today and I totally forgot about it." The girl;s face dropped and he could practically feel the disappointment. Yeah, it was kind of a shitty thing do to her. Most of the girls he brought home weren't happy when they left his house in the morning.
After the girl collected her things and stormed out, Jamie took a shower and dressed himself in black shorts and a black and red tank top. Ending up in the dining room, he noticed his Grandma was home. She told him that his friend Katie had just left and that Grandad was out golfing with some of his friends. James kindly reminded her that the girl was not Katie. Katie had been an old childhood friend who he hadn't seen in years. Grandmas was slowly losing her memory, sadly. Jamie smiled through it and gave her a hug and reminded her to take her pills that he left on the kitchen table for her the night before.
Wolfe was glad he had packed the weekend before and his bags were waiting in the trunk of his r8. He slid into his car and took a moment to breath, which was rare. Thoughts of what was to come during the trip, the people he would be acquainted with and the decisions he had to make afterwards. It could seem like a small thing really, considering the whole big picture. But really, it was huge, the job path he chose would altar his life indefinitely. Marines or mechanics, the question drummed in the back of his head as he drove quite speedily to Ariel's house.
Pulling into the driveway, he noticed that pretty much everyone had arrived before he had, oops. Not that it was a big deal really, he wasn't exactly known for his punctuality. Before he left the car he fumbled around in his glove compartment until his hand found purchase on a pack of cigarettes and dragged it out. He used a lighter taken from his pocket to light a cigarette and exhaled a cloud of smoke. He returned the pack into the glove box and vowed this would be the only time he would smoke that week. Sure, smoking occasionally calmed his hyperactive and overthinking brain, but he knew the shit was bad for him.
James didn't bother knocking on the front door and instead just let himself in. Once in clear view of everyone he cleared his throat and took a bow, smoke curling around him from the cigarette. "Ladies -especially the ladies- and gentlemen, you lives have just gotten better, James freakin' Wolfe has entered the building."
Straightening from his bow, he noticed a few people he didn't recognize. In fact, the only people he did recognize were Cass, Ariel, and Lizzy. There were four other guys, although he was pretty sure one of them was Phillip since Lizzy was here. Well, at least he wouldn't have to introduce himself to each of them individually, as if he actually would spend time doing something as boring as that. So he made sure to keep a straight face so they would think he was being serious, he nailed it, even adding a devilish glint in his eyes.

Jamie's been described as crazy, an asshole, douchebag, hilarious, you name it. He's extreme on all ends of the spectrum. Never the type to stay still, James seeks adventure and the beautiful things in life. With a great sense of humor and wit, he has a smooth charm with a devilish hint mixed it. To most, he seems like a smartass, douche, with no filter. His brain is always working overtime, and his tongue holds nothing back. Surprisingly it takes a lot to set him off, but once he reaches that point, you'd better hold on. The only time you'll see the sweet, caring side of him is when he's with his grandparents or in the presence of small children, and maybe close friends occasionally. James' reputation with girls makes most people think he's some sort of player. Which is pretty much true. He's never had a solid girlfriend, but many girls at his school regret to say he's slept with them. Why they fall for the persona he puts up is beyond him but it works. Deep down, he actually craves a real relationship, but he probably wouldn't be a great boyfriend, considering his personality and track record with women. Wolfe has a serious problem with authority, and hates people who think thy are better than him without any knowledge of who he actually is. People assume he's this burnout who can't keep him mouth shut, so sometimes he just plays the part. Jamie just wants to make something out of himself. He wants someone he can be close to, and feel something real besides an occasional adrenaline rush.

Biography: From the few, foggy memories James has of his parents, he gathered that they had loved him dearly. Sadly, he could only think back to those simpler times in brief pictures and short clips. Like his favorite memory of them; he was being pushed on a swing by his father. Everythime the swing would rush backwards he would look over his shoulder to see his father smiling at him and James would giggle gleefully. When he was pitches forward he was greeted by his mother's beautiful face making silly expressions at him until he would get close enough and she would tickle his tummy. In the present day, he can only grip on to that one memory and a vague remembrance of their faces. He was five years old when they tragically died in a freak car accident. Jamie had been at home with a babysitter while his parents were out on a date for their anniversary. Coming home, they were in a front end collision with a drunk driver. The man had been swerving in his lane and smashed into them at 70 miles an hour. Medical professionals claimed they died instantly, not that James cared about the degree to which they died. At the ripe age of five, death was a foreign concept, and it didn't really sink in for a while. He was just told that Mama and Daddy were on vacation for a while and he was going to have to stay with his grandparents. May and Gary Wolfe took great care of him, even in their old age. Growing up, Jamie received nothing but love and was spoiled constantly. He grew up in an amazing home, Gary had been the CEO of a multi-million dollar company which not only allowed him to retire early, but left him with a hefty amount of cash in the bank. By the time James hit his teenage years, he became redical. He was angry at the universe from taking his parents away from him, and he acted out in school because of it. At the point, his grandparents were in their late seventies and couldn't keep a proper eye on him. Despite his punk behavior in school and the partying and the drugs, he always treated his grandparents with the tenderest love. Deep down he hated that he was doing what he was doing, because he knew his parents would have wanted him to be a better person. Not that it mattered what they would have thought, they were fucking gone. Things sort of calmed down by his junior year of high school. He was actually focused on doing well in school and his teachers realized that he was actually really freaking smart. If he had put more effort in and really cracked down on his studies, he could have easily gotten straight A's. Instead he got average B's, but Hell that was way better than the D's and E's he had been recieving beforehand. Things looked like they were turning around from the young Wofle, he even managed to land himself a job as an assistant in an auto shop in town. Jamie learned here the ins and outs of cars, and also found a love for them. Using his grandfather's money, he bought a luxury car at 17 years old. It was a beautiful Audi R8 and it caught a lot of people's eyes. He bought it used, but used his new skills learned from the auto shop to fix it up. With the road trip coming up, James is excited, not that he'd show it. He figures it's one last hurray before he has to put his big boy pants on and make something out of himself. He also wants to confide in his friends on whether he should join the Marines or pursue his love for cars. Either way, big decisions are ahead and Jamie Wolfe is low key stressing out.
