so much younger yesterday.

ABOUT

born to jalen johnson (a carpenter) and olivia worthington (a lawyer), reece never knew them until he was a fifteen. they had given up, leaving him at a fire station after he was born. they couldn’t afford it, already having a son who was three years older than him, and so he grew up at an orphanage in connecticut.

his early life was a routine he knew by heart. get up, get cleaned, have breakfast, playtime, avoid bullies, see other people get adopted out, eat again, have potential adopters, they don’t ‘like’ him, lose friends, eat, sleep, and do it all over again. 

after his final friend out of four - himself included - got adopted and left, their caretaker decided to enroll him into a preparatory school when he was fifteen. she saw that he was a good kid and wanted the best for him no matter what. it’s there that his life truly really began. 

he met his older brother and they got to talking. they weren’t as close at first but a couple years later they would be inseparable, especially after the car crash they were in. his brother was the go between with their parents but reece didn’t really want anything to do with them. not really, because he went fifteen years without them. because of reece’s sensitive nature, he annoyed his older brother brad but he knew deep down he loved him unconditionally. 

he also made new friends, whilst keeping his grades up, and found a love for the guitar and piano, eventually mastering them and finding his voice too.

aside from that, love came knocking. reece always knew in some shape or form that he liked both girls and boys, especially given the massive crush he had had on his best friend from the orphanage. so when a pretty boy with blonde hair and blue eyes vied for his attention, reece didn’t want to miss the chance.

it started off with practing guitar together, then spending more time outside of school together, to going on a ski trip together, to having more dates with one another, to getting dogs together, to writing back forth to one another, reece really thought he had found the one. but then his emotions got the best of him as he saw his boyfriend have a crush on another guy, so much so that he pulled away a bit. 

his boyfriend then cheated on him with an ex of his and reece has never looked at love the same way again. truly heartbroken, reece tried to move past it but never truly could. eventually he ended up dating one of his closest friends named justin and then having a fling with another guy named brody, all whilst his ex dated someone else. it didn’t last too long though before he was back with his ex. 

eventually down the road reece cheated on him (with the ex of the ex that reece’s ex cheated on him with), and then after things never were truly the same. reece became something he hated, having turned to alcohol most of the time during everything, and so he decided to get out of town. a huge part of his heart will always be there for his first boyfriend but he had to do what was best for him in the end.

moving to another small town, reece gained friends once more, but decided to lay low and not get into any drama (he has had enough for a life time) and almost falling in love once more but never really going all the way through so he was alone once more. which was suprisingly bittersweet and okay with him. he just knew now that he could fall in love again. 

focusing on youtube videos, music, and singing, he eventually grew a following. he’s not extremely famous but it’s enough to gain sponsors and be verified on social media sites. he loves the work that he does and doesn’t feel like doing anything else for the rest of his life. 

he flew out to LA trying to start a singing career there but didn't go anywhere and had an apartment there for a bit. keeping in touch with his best friend mitchy, he found out about another town in maine where she was living and decided to check it out. he’d been looking for a place for himself anyways and this seemed like the perfect fit. now he streams and creates youtube videos from the comfort of his apartment, looking for a home to own, and hoping this will be the last stop for awhile.

it turns out that that wasn't the place for him. moving once more he found himself a little more down south, driving until he found a town that sparked his interest. he got a room at a hotel and just spent a few days there. those for days eventually turned into weeks and then months.

he found himself a four bedroom home and has roommates. he can't live alone he found out. although he did find a job at hart motel as a housekeeper, he still streams and does youtube videos and goes live for almost eight or ten hours a day. he enjoys it but he does love his music - especially his guitar and piano. not having many friends yet he's hoping to gain more and find a permanent place in town. he's tired of leaving... and getting left behind.
