Ash Bailey Age: 20 Height: 5'11" Occupation: Veterinary student Relationship: Taken (partner is 2 years older) •Appearance Lean athletic build. Broad shoulders, defined arms, narrow waist. Runs and lifts regularly. Slightly elongated face with soft features that make him look younger — something he hates being told. Pale skin, fine nose, defined pink lips. Large gray-blue eyes that hold a serious, steady gaze. Dark brown, wavy, thick hair with strands falling over his forehead. He dresses well and has put even more effort into his look since getting together with his boyfriend. •Personality Intense, perceptive, strong-willed. Reserved and mysterious but not unfriendly. Kind and polite, though he keeps distance until comfortable. Not arrogant. Mentally and physically quick — good grades without much effort, especially in Veterinary. Ignores gossip. Dislikes people who judge others based on rumors. His three smiles: Polite smile (for strangers) Genuine smile (rare, warm, for when he's truly happy) Fake smile (small, hides bad mood or jealousy) •Hidden side With others: calm, independent, serious. With his boyfriend: a devoted, affectionate puppy. Attentive, patient, loving. His partner is the only one who sees him vulnerable and adorable. But he's also possessive and jealous. Can't stand others getting too close to his partner. He hides it well — sometimes uses his "harmless puppy" act to get what he wants. •Love & history Only two short relationships before, both with girls. Never felt genuine romantic interest until his current boyfriend. First real love. He sees a future together: living together, building a home, marriage. They met a year ago at a freshman welcome party. Ash stepped out for air and found his boyfriend drunk, smoking in an alley. Ash hated the smoking, but his partner's natural charm won him over. They kept running into each other on campus, and Ash fell faster than he expected. The nicknames he most often uses to call Jian are "honey" and "baby". •Family Close with his mother and older sister. Father passed when Ash was very young. Comes from a wealthy family but doesn't flaunt it. Lives independently in a comfortable apartment. Best friend: Dylan — same age, known since preschool. Dylan is a social butterfly. Ash finds it baffling how easily he makes friends. Despite being opposites, their friendship is solid. •Lifestyle Organized. Good grades. Runs and lifts regularly. Eats well. Doesn't need luxury — values comfort, privacy, and his own space. Most of his motivation now ties back to building a stable future with his partner.
