DESCRPTION
Tristan is an incredibly tall young man, standing at five foot eleven, almost six feet at the age of only seventeen. He gets his height from his dad, who like him, is incredibly lanky. Being tall therefore enhances his very skinny frame. He’s been told once or twice that he is really far too thin, although his arm and chest muscles are very obviously there, he just can’t help being naturally skinny. He eats a lot, mind you.
His skin is nicely tanned, being from Italy this is one of the traits Jake carries, which he doesn’t mind one bit. He tan’s easily in the summer. His brown mid-length hair is almost always permanently straightened, the colour matching his small hazel eyes. Having fallen off a skateboard at the age of seven Jake broke his nose, the scar from the injury still clearly visible when you look at him. Most people can easily tell that the boy has broken his nose, the bone still being slightly rigid, rather than straight.
Dress wise Jake is nearly always seen in a pair of skinny jeans; black or dark blue, a v-neck t-shirt or just an ordinary plain coloured t-shirt, a button up shirt, pull over hoodie or a leather jacket, oh and don’t forget those well loved converse.

OVERALL PERSONALITY[/b]
Many words could be said to describe Tristan Black, I’ll try and break it down for you. He very much likes the look of himself but don’t worry he isn’t a complete arrogant asshole, he’s a real sweetie at heart but just acts like he’s the big tough guy. Jake wouldn’t pass up on an argument, witty comments and sarcastic remarks are things he loves coming up with. Life is all one big game to Tristan, you can’t take it too seriously, which in his case means school isn’t really that important and he always has to make a joke here or there. Although he often contradicts himself, as he is nearly always pessimistic, and can be, shot me for saying it, a right emo at times. He doesn’t forgive easily, but surprisingly he tends to trust easily.
Jake swears when he gets mad; he gets mad a lot. Actually no, count that as an understatement. Tristan swears a lot, which doesn’t really show off his intelligence, but he can’t help it, he swears when he’s pissed off, happy, angry, annoyed, basically anything which isn’t ordinary, you should prepare to hear a few vulgarisms flying around. This also effects his moods, obviously, if he’s angry, you might not want to step too near, not that he’ll lash out, but he can be pretty harsh with those words, he likes to think his insults are creative and oh very offensive. Yelling is a repeated pastime with this Senior, although he’s pretty much mastered the silent treatment as well. You now understand part of the reason why he can act like a five year old; his sulk techniques really have been perfected over the last few years. It may make him seem immature, but it usually gets him what he wants.
Jealousy tends to be a problem with Jake, maybe it’s because he’s so protective over people and well other things. He hates competition between other guys, and girls for that matter, loathes it, he always has to come out best. He hates losing. Jake gets jealous over the simplest of things, not so much anymore, but if someone even smiled suggestively at his date (for example) well he wouldn’t be a very happy bunny. He can’t help being protective, although this rarely lasts very long, oh no, you have to be someone very special for this teen to actually put up a fight for you longer than a few weeks. If it looks like he’s losing, Jake’ll usually change target, once again, he hates losing, but he’s sly in the process of giving up and looking like a coward.
This seventeen year old lad is also very persistent, he doesn’t give up easily, if he wants to reach something, get something, he usually won’t stop until he achieves his goal or gets what he wants. This can be said for both people, relationship wise, hence the competitiveness, and anything else, such as the latest gadget.
Everyone has a cowardly side, not everyone can be superman, or appear to be. And although Jake is very good at hiding this side to him, it doesn’t mean its not there. He’s actually afraid of quite a few things (see fears), you’d never get him to go bungee jumping for a start. Chicken. But then again you’ll never get him to admit he’s scared of something. Its very rare if he comments on something like that. He’s found of his ego you see. I don’t think his head could get any bigger.
You may not have seen it yet but deep deep deeeep down there in Tristans little soul is a romantic side. I told you he was secretly a big bundle of fluff, right. Everyone is really. It may be hard to believe, Jake can be known as a bit of a player, if you call it that. But occasionally, rarely but it still happens, Jake can be a complete romantic. He knows not to fall in love too easily however, so when he does, its hard to fall out of it.
Sarcasm. Jake likes sarcasm, although the saying does go ‘sarcasm is the lowest form of wit’. He disagrees with the cliché statement of course, because, well only the best witty remarks are always sarcastic, and to be cleverly sarcastic you have to be witty. Nay? For some reason, although he knows this flaw of his is highly annoying to most people, he still continues. It often makes himself look stupid, and the complete opposite of witty but Jake doesn’t seem to register. He’s very argumentative, which links in with his sarcastic ways, quick and sometimes pathetic comebacks, his competitiveness and also his protective side. Jake's a defensive kind of guy.
Tristan could be described as an all round one of the lad’s type of guy, he isn’t anything out of the ordinary but he isn’t exactly invisible. He isn’t majorly popular, but he has plenty of friends who he believes he can trust. He can be rude, a bit of a rebel at times, but then he has his moments where he works, puts in enough effort to get him passing grades.
This brown eyed guy is very sure of himself and maybe a tad over confident at times. Often coming across as boastful, know it all, or just plain arrogant in general. He doesn’t do anything to suppress these opinions of himself though, many people do think he is arrogant, but he’s too self absorbed to care in all honesty. Those who know him, or get to know him well enough, will learn he isn’t all that bad. The fact that he cares about his appearance, more than the average seventeen year old skater doesn’t help with the matter. Yeah, he can be a little vain at times; he can’t leave his dorm without straightening/gelling/doing something to his hair, unless he’s in a really bad mood and can’t be bothered of course.

`IF YOU THINK I'D LEAVE THEN YOU WERE WRONG
cause i wont stop holding on
Tristan was born on New Years Eve, the last day of December, and the day before New Year’s Day… to the recently married couple; Juliana and Lewis Black. Nobody was really expecting Juliana to give birth, especially when she wasn’t even due until the end of January, beginning of February. So it really was a surprise when she went into labour, a glass of lemonade in her hand, half way through a song by Take That in the midst of the new years celebrations. Six hours later out popped baby Tristan; named after his fathers granddad. As all babies were, some more than others, Tristan was a loud one; he never ceased crying unless he got attention, or whatever the little lump wanted. Ever since he was a few days old he’s learnt the best ways of feeding the needs of, yours truly.
It was obvious that the little boy was his parents pride and joy, that was until Juliana once again fell pregnant, with, soon to be, Tristan’s baby brother. Even at the young age of three, Tristan had decided he didn’t want a brother, or a sister, or any other siblings for that matter. He wanted his parent’s attention all to himself. But there really wasn’t anything he could do about it, because Caleb Kyle was introduced to the Black family sooner or later.
Ever since they were small it was evident that the two brothers didn’t get on very well, and it wasn’t just what they call sibling rivalry, they really did seem to take a dislike to each other. From an outsiders point of view it was easily seen that Tristan was fathers favourite footballer, whereas Caleb was more of Mommy’s little angel. Competing against each other for attention was one of the young boys favourite past times. It still hasn’t got old.
The small family of four grew up in Murano, Venice (Italy) seeing as Juliana herself had grown up, lived for most of her life in the city, until they realised they didn’t have enough space for the family to grow. When Tristan had just turned ten (Caleb around six years old) the Blacks migrated to the United States of America. There new home was found in the largely populated city of Elizabeth, New Jersey, where Lewis had been offered a highly respectable job as high school teacher in the local area.
With the children not being that young, it was particularly hard for them to learn a new language, it was harder for Jake than Caleb, but he had plenty of time to grow with the American/English language. Nowadays, Jake’s Italian has of course been forgotten to some extent, he still recalls some of the language, but he's still pretty confident at speaking his native language, and uses this to his advantage sometimes. Life as a kid was pretty much normal, if there is ever such a thing, Tristan went to kindergarten, grew up sporting a pretty good head of hair, and passed his primary years at school.
However, things for the whole family seemed to change when Tristan started high school. From the very beginning of Freshman year Jake got involved with the wrong crowd. Although only fourteen he made an effort to mingle with the older students, and with that effort, was introduced to the world of alcohol and sex. Being quite young only made it harder for him to know any different when he grew up and throughout his school years, the simple acts of rebelling against teachers and his parents rules became worse.
His parents, especially his mother, couldn’t see how Tristan had been led astray. She was concerned about Jake and his behaviour at school and at home, but couldn’t figure out what to do about it. Her husband, Lewis on the other hand wasn’t as worried as she was, he was certain this was just a phase, and sleeping around, drinking till you puke, was what the average teenager did. Fights between them started up and they couldn’t seem to see eye to eye anymore.
Jake wasn’t close to his family at all, he spent hardly any time at home, apart from sleeping there when he decided to, and this didn’t really help with the arguments in the household. When Tristan turned seventeen is where the real problems began. At school, now in Senior year, he was known as ‘the manwhore’ however he was still incredibly popular, but people knew all he cared about was the physical side of relationships. Near the beginning of the school year Tristan got involved with a much younger boy, Oliver, in Freshman year. Jake seemed determined to try and make the relationship work, and word had it around the school that the player of the school had fallen in love. They obviously thought wrong.
The couple, with the three year gap in between them, had been going out for a few weeks and it was obvious nothing had happened between them. Oliver was an innocent little soul and Jake couldn’t seem to twist him into doing anything he didn’t want. One night, Jake with determination set in his mind, took the younger boy out at night, down to the beach. At first Oliver didn’t seem to object to Jake’s actions, but when the Freshman realised what Tristan was really trying to do, sleep with him, he panicked, totally scared. Tristan didn’t seem to notice the fear in the younger boys eyes and actions he practically went ahead with his intentions anyway. Being stronger than Oliver seemed to be an advantage, it was easy enough to prevent the struggling and in the end Jake got his way.
Unwanting to say anything about the evening Oliver, Tristan’s boyfriend, kept quiet although he cried all the way back to school, whilst Jake persisted everything was fine and that it was supposed to hurt, and he didn’t mean to force him into anything. Oliver believed it when Tristan said those three words everyone wants to hear more than once in their lifetime, but realised he had been used when Jake dumped him in the past following days. His bruises around the wrist and waist were questioned by his mother, who eventually got the full story out of her fourteen year old son. She insisted Oliver report the incident; obviously he was still upset about it. Jake was accused of rape, which sent his mother over the edge; she didn’t recognise her own son anymore. Tristan found guilty, was sentenced to a few years at Michigan State, although whilst in court also founded for another similar case, with a girl he supposedly met at a nightclub, having had her drink spiked, and one of attempted murder, which Tristan insists wasn’t his fault.
Always having been violent since a little kid there was no real surprise that Tristan was always pulled into the principles office for being in physical fights at school. Tristan wasn’t exactly popular with many of the ‘boyfriends’ in school, seeing as him and his little crew always used to ‘aim’ for the prettiest girls, whom usually had the aggressive and large boyfriends. Stupidly Jake had made it a goal to charm his way into the head cheerleader’s knickers, and he was pretty successful. However, he wasn’t aware her boyfriend was the Captain of the school American football team, and therefore he had his ass pretty much done for. A fight did ensue, and a silly school boy argument over girls got extremely out of hand. In the midst of punching each other and literally ‘trying to kill each other’ Jake grabbed a brick from the sidewalk and knocked the older guy out without even thinking. He was then accused of attempted murder, although he insisted it was self defence.
Being underage, the only sensible option was to send Tristan to Michigan State although his mother was dead set on him being imprisoned properly, to get what he deserved. Whilst in Michigan State, Tristan Jacob’s parents got divorced, with Caleb living with his mother and his father moving back to Italy for the duration of Tristan’s imprisonment. Jake doesn’t really keep in touch with his family, he gets letters occasionally from his father and younger brother, but his mother has ceased trying to communicate ‘civilly’ with him, and the two really do not get on.
Michigan State was said to be the cure for Jake’s ‘need’ for sexual activity, they attempt to keep watch on his behaviour and relationships with other inmates, making sure nothing happens. However, not everything is seen by the staff, Jake is still a complete utter flirt, and he can’t help dropping a comment here or there, but he knows what he’s done in the past, regretting it, and does secretly want to ‘get better’ or at least reduce he ‘sexual nature’. But he doesn’t see how keeping him ‘locked up’ is going to help him and can be a bit difficult to work with, sometimes deliberately tricking younger and newer housemates into relationships with him, leading him to be in isolation from other people very often.
