hi, everyone! come meet my sweet bby boy anthony ( ant for short! ). [ biography. pinterest. connections. playlist. ] my bio is quite long for him, so i'll include a tldr with some quick facts below!
tw: parental abandonment, divorce, panic attacks, depression, suicide attempt
ant is the youngest of 4 siblings. he's the only boy, so it was kismet that he would carry on his father's athletic legacy. which he did. by playing three sports like a total jock. those three sports are football, soccer, and ice hockey. soccer, however, is the one he favors most of all.
his parents split up when he was little, but didn't officially divorce until he was in middle school. his mom kinda just up and left them one day (oops!), and it's haunted ant ever since. it kinda led him to put a lot of pressure on himself to be the golden boy for his dad.
in high school, he won a state championship in soccer (yay!) much to the deterioration of his health, both mentally and physically, that year. he never fully recovered from how much that season took out of him.
also in high school, he started to have panic attacks regularly because of all the pressure he put on himself to be perfect. if you saw ant going to the guidance office, it was probably because he was in the middle of an attack. he used that safe space regularly to try to hide just how much everything was weighing on him.
oh, this boy loved amelia. he was like a little puppy following her around. until she broke up with him. the very first piece of his perfect stature shattered. ironic, though, when you consider that ant knew they would never actually last, deep down.
he played soccer and ice hockey in college, but neither sport was ever the same for him. he hated almost every second of it because he was no longer the best player on the best team. it did, however, land him a pro contract after graduation with a soccer team in washington, dc.
romantic life? god awful. he's never been the same since amelia. he's had hookups, relationships, but he's a runner -- just like his mom.
why is he back in wrensted, you may be wondering? well, ant may have had a wild night out in the off season that basically ended with him in the hospital with his stomach getting pumped because he'd taken too many pills mixed with alcohol. no one really knows this, though, since his team kept it quiet. all they did was give him a leave of absence until he could get his head on straight. so now he's living above his oldest sister's bakery, unsure of how he ended up back in the town that kinda started all of his shit.
this isn't necessarily part of his bio, but it is very important to this sweet boy. he's just that -- very sweet. not the brightest, but he's very kind hearted despite the shitty hand he's been dealt. even so, he does make A LOT of dumb decisions and doesn't put a lot of thought behind he's actions. he means well. most of the time, at least.
