Valerie is the kind of girl who can walk into a party and somehow already know half the room. She’s extremely funny, effortlessly confident, outgoing, and completely comfortable being the center of attention. She has a sharp sense of humor and a quick comeback for practically everything, which makes her just as entertaining to talk to as she is attractive. She’s easily considered one of the prettiest girls on campus, but her personality is what makes people remember her. She’s on a first-name basis with practically every frat guy, knows bartenders, athletes, upperclassmen, professors, and random people she’s met once at a party. Everyone knows Valerie. She’s constantly getting invited somewhere, dragged into plans, or recognized across campus. She loves parties, spontaneous adventures, flirting, dressing up, and having a good time, but she isn’t shallow. She’s fiercely loyal and deeply caring toward the people she considers hers. Her biggest flaw is that she hates feeling vulnerable. Valerie would rather make a joke, change the subject, or pretend she doesn’t care than admit that something actually hurt her. She’s independent to a fault and has convinced herself that she doesn’t need anyone. That becomes a problem when she starts caring about Nate far more than she ever intended to. Gorgeous with long blonde hair, striking eyes, defined features, and a confident presence that immediately draws attention. She has an effortlessly stylish, feminine look and always seems perfectly put together, whether she’s dressed for class or a party.

Tessa is the kindest person in the group, with a naturally warm personality that makes people feel comfortable around her almost instantly. She’s sweet without being naïve and has more backbone than people expect. She’s the friend who remembers everyone’s little details, checks in when someone seems off, and will defend her friends without hesitation. She tends to be the emotional glue holding the group together. But she loves to party. Petite with long, wavy brunette hair, warm brown eyes, soft features, and a naturally sweet appearance. She has a simple, feminine style and an easy smile. Has a huge crush on Nate.

Nate is effortlessly charming, ridiculously funny, laid-back, cocky, a party guy and very aware of the effect he has on people. He’s the kind of guy who can turn an awkward situation into a joke and somehow talk his way out of almost anything. He’s extremely attractive and has a reputation for being one of the biggest players on campus, which he does absolutely nothing to discourage. He’s carefree, social, and almost impossible to embarrass. Nate rarely takes anything seriously, especially relationships. He flirts because he enjoys it, dates casually, and has no interest in being tied down. He just has no idea what to do with feelings once they become real. He would never admit to Valerie his true feelings. He hides his jealousy. Tall, athletic, and extremely attractive, with tousled brown hair, striking eyes, strong features, and an effortlessly confident appearance. Usually dressed casually but somehow always looks put together.

Cooper is loud, energetic, and almost physically incapable of taking anything seriously. He’s the guy making jokes during inappropriate moments, turning every minor inconvenience into an adventure, and convincing everyone to do something stupid because “it’ll be funny.” He’s incredibly easygoing and gets along with practically everyone. Underneath all the jokes, though, he’s fiercely loyal and would drop everything for his friends. Tall and athletic with messy dirty-blond hair, bright blue eyes, and an infectious grin. He always looks slightly disheveled, like he just rolled out of bed and somehow still looks good. Has a crush on Valerie.

Owen is the smart, nerdy one of the group, always prepared with a plan, a backup plan, and enough common sense to know when everyone else is about to make a terrible decision. He’s quiet at first but surprisingly funny once he’s comfortable. He’s loyal, dependable, and usually the one everyone goes to when they need advice. Despite being the most responsible, he somehow always ends up dragged into everyone else’s chaos. Tall and lean with messy dark-brown hair, brown eyes, glasses, and a slightly nerdy but effortlessly cute appearance. Usually dressed casually in hoodies, jeans, and sneakers.
