history;
Alexander's family come from a town called Toledo, Spain. They all lived there until Alex was nine years old. They moved because they knew their son was to be a wizard, his powers having manifested in him since a very early age, and that Hogwarts was a much more respected magic school than the one in Spain. So, Alex's parents got transfers to St. Mungo's a couple of years before Alex was inevitably due to attend Hogwarts, giving the young boy time to perfect his English, although he still has an undeniable Spanish purr to his voice.
Everything seemed to be going great for the first few months. Alex's parents adapted easily, knowing English anyway already. But he turned out Caterina, Alex's mum, had fallen pregnant. The young boy at that age never really understood what was going down. Just that his mum was expecting a little girl. And that his dad had begun to hit the drink heavily. Why? Alex wouldn't know until later on in life.
In Hogwarts Alex made only a couple of friends, if they could even be called that. He never really related with anyone after getting teased for his heavy accent. That was until he met a boy his age on the train back to London; Chase. It turned out that they had many things in common and their music taste matched to a tee. Over the course of the summer, they sent each other owls continuously, their friendship blossomed rapidly. And, although Alex never admitted it to Chase, he felt something else that stretched past amity towards him.
Alexander had been tempted to act on these feelings but on being introduced to Brent and Reid, he knew that it was best not. They ended up forming a band together called Odd Virtues You Can't Sweat Out, Alex playing guitar and doing backing vocals, and the teen guessed it would be only for the best if he kept quiet so to avoid drama. Plus, Brent was pretty cute, too. And not forgetting Reid either.
The teen never really came out about his homosexuality. It was just one of those awkward things that he could never bring himself to get out in the air. But, he guessed, that it was obvious enough. And if they had still had their doubts, stumbling into band practice, drunk out of his face, clutching some guy called Jackie by the hand and declaring that you were going to marry him probably confirmed any suspicion. Jackie didn't work out though. It had been just one of many one night flings Alex liked.
Alexander breezed through Hogwarts with little drama. But it seemed as though it had all been saving itself for his 18th birthday. He remembered what happened very well. He received an owl from his mother wishing him the usual happy birthday yet it ended with a more serious note, that they had to talk but it had to be in person. December had seemed to drag past even slower than usual and the teen was forever distracted, finding it hard to concentrate on almost anything. But, finally, it was time to head home for Christmas.
Alex left the Friday. But was back on the Monday.
He didn't tell neither of his friends what his mother had told him. He didn't even know how to tell them. It wasn't until one weekend when he was completely smashed out of his face that he broke down and spilled the beans - his dad was sterile. And forever had been. Who his real dad was, Alex had no idea. All he knew was that he was never going home. Ever.
Surprisingly, the teenager scraped enough NEWTS to become a healer at St. Mungo's - his dream career - despite his habit of drinking away every weekend. His parents no longer worked there though. They had gone their separate ways. His dad, a drunk, in some bar back in Spain. And his mother...well....Alex cut all ties with her.
all that matters is the present ,
[/i][/size][/font] personality;
He's a happy little chap and likes to smile but easily blushes also, something that he absolutely despises - he doesn't even have to feel physically attracted to someone to go all pink in the cheeks. Its just something that happens of its own accord and sometimes puts Alex in very awkward situations. He doesn't even know why people always associate a blush with liking someone.
Quite promiscuous. If he can get some, he will get some. Although he does abstain from getting in the way of anyone's relationship. He knows where the line is and he takes care not to step over it. And when he has a boyfriend, he is as faithful as faithful can be.
In general, he's a nice guy to be around. Sweet and gives attention to detail, sometimes even a bit shy. When he's out drinking though or with his friends, or both, he completely comes out of his shell - dancing on tables, taking his clothes off out-of-shell. He just wants to have some fun.
Alexander likes to look after himself and buy clothes but this doesn't necessarily mean he's a vain or proud thing. Its just a favorite pass time of his and his vault at Gringotts suffers because of it.

down to the crunch ,
[/i][/size][/font] Grab some beers at the Hog's Head? Sure, Phoenix was game. As game as he had been all the other times he and his friend Mackenzie had snuck off to do the same. Normally the Three Broomsticks was their preferred haunt but today there were many people within its walls. And many were familiar faces.
So to avoid awkward confrontations, the two friends had popped over to the Hog's Head instead.
Opening the wooden door, Phoenix was hit by a wall of stale tobacco and drink. The atmosphere inside was just as promising. It was dull, a tad gloomy and a bit on the chilly side. Still think the Three Broomsticks would of been a better choice... Phoenix mused to himself. rubbing his forearms in a bid to warm them.
But, nevertheless, he held the door for his friend to walk in and offered him a smile.
"You grab the drinks, I'll grab us a seat."[/color] He said before gliding over to a table sat by a window translucent from grime. Phoenix promptly occupied a seat, running a hand through his wavy, mousy brown hair. He peered around the pub. The people were just as glum as the atmosphere. His gaze fell upon a man...sat a couple of tables away....he seemed quite familiar. But Phoenix knew not to stare, and turned briskly away, waiting for his friend to return to their table.[/size]
