Name: Johnny kavnagh Age: 17 BIRTH PLACE: Blackrock, Dublin, Ireland RESIDENCE: Wild Rose Manor, Upper Northwest, Ballylaggin, Co. Cork PARENTS: John Kavanagh Sr (father) Edel Kavanagh (mother) PETS Sookie (dog, black Labrador) Bonnie (dog, golden retriever) Cupcake (dog, golden retriever) He has a striking and well-defined bone structure that immediately draws attention. His high cheekbones are sharp and prominent, giving his face a sculpted, almost angular appearance, especially in certain lighting. When he smiles — which he doesn’t do often, but when he does — the movement reveals deep, symmetrical dimples on both cheeks, softening the sharpness of his features and making his face appear unexpectedly warm. His jawline is broad and strong, with a natural squareness to it that gives him a commanding, masculine presence, even when he’s not speaking. His lips are noticeably full, slightly swollen in appearance, the kind that look plush without effort, as though they’re always on the edge of a smirk or a deadpan comment. His nose is straight and well-proportioned, balanced perfectly in the center of his face. His hair is dark brown and thick, worn in a deliberately unkempt style — a messy, tousled mop on top that looks like he ran a hand through it and left it that way. The sides of his head are cleanly shaved in a sharp taper that fades neatly into the length above, giving the impression that even his chaos has structure. Johnny's a good person. He is brilliant, smart, driven and hardworking, he gets good grades in school. He's kind. Careless, headstrong. He is described as having impeccable manners. He likes to stay away from drugs. He's always had a good sense of what is right and wrong. He's a dog lover, particularly of his dog Sookie. And he is blindly loyal to his friends and family. He is protective of the people his loves, particularly Elena, Edel (his mother) and Gibsie. He describes himself as someone who knows what he wants extremely well, when he says something or does something he means it. He is extremely reliable, something that Elena points out multiple times. His friends often describe him as a 'bulldozer' hinting at the fact that he inserts himself into situations a lot, this is usually to help or protect Elena. It is pointed out that he gets this from his mother Edel.

“You had a girl over,” John said bluntly.
Johnny’s mouth fell open as he stared at his father.
Ah, shite.
Johnny knew better than to trust his 13 year old brother Conor but he thought he could pay him off from telling their Dad that he’d snuck over Elena last night.
“Dad…” johnny trailed off, unsure of how to get out of this mess.
“He had a what over?” His mam edel looked between John and Johnny in shock.
“A girl, baby,” John told his wife. “He betrayed us, Edel. Snuck a girl in and tried to pay Conor off.”
“Johnny Kavanagh!” Edel reprimanded her teenage son. “How could you do this to us?”
Johnny rubbed his eyes. “Mam. It’s not what you’re thinking, okay? Nothing happened.”
“Do you actually think we were born yesterday?” John was his son’s replica. They had the same hair and eyes and attitude. It was sometimes scary how similar they were. “You actually believe we’d buy that lie?” John chuckled but there was no humour.
“Is the girl still here?” Edel asked.
Ah, double shite.
Johnny imagined Elena still upstairs in his bed, wearing his shirt and nothing else, tangled up in his sheets. Her hair splayed across his pillow. Her perfume in his room, on his body.
Stop thinking about her, his mind reminded him.
That was the problem with johnny Kavanagh. He was always thinking about Elena. She was always his first and last thought, always on his mind, always in his dreams, always haunting him.
Those eyes, that hair, the gentle smiles and soft touches. Stolen glances at school. Kisses behind the school building. Sneaking out of class and school to drive down to the beach and spend their time together.
It was the first time he’d snuck her in, though. Just for once, he wanted to fall asleep with her in his arms and wake up beside her.
At least he got his wish once before his Mam castrates him and his Dad kills him.
“I’m sorry,” johnny sighed. “But I’m serious, Ma. We didn’t do anything.”
At least not that his parents needed to know.
Johnny didn’t want to break his Ma’s heart for a second time this morning.
Edellooked at John. Her husband stared right back at her.
Growing up with his parents, johnny knew what love was. Love was his Mam making his Dad breakfast. Love was his Dad leaving the court house to go to his Ma’s fashion designer office to have lunch with her. Love was the way John kavanagh looked at Edel Kavanagh, and how she looked right back at him.
Love was the embodied by his parents.
“Your mother and I need to talk about this,” John said seriously. “You will be punished, johnny.”
“You never answered my question, though,” Edel said. “Is she still here?”
Johnny sighed once more. “Yeah, think so. If she hasn’t snuck out my window.”
“Why don’t you go and wake her up? Bring her down for some breakfast?” Edel suggested, or more like ordered by her eyes. He knew he couldn’t get out of it, otherwise his Mam would just storm upstairs and go and see for herself.
At least johnny could ensure Elena was presentable.
“Are you sure?” Johnny asked.
Edel nodded.
His parents were in for a shock, that was for sure.
