all she wants is to be L O V E D

[ISABELLA SAOIRSE HARTSEN]

Bella.

Isabella Saoirse Hartsen, or Bella as she likes to be known, was born in
1984 to Patrick Hartsen, a man of Irish descent, and the very beautiful
Russian born Paulina Lazutina. She was born and grew up in Los Angeles,
wanting for nothing, the Hartsen family had had money for centuries. No
one could remember exactly where it all came from or knew the extent to
which their tremendous wealth spanned, but it had increased greatly over
the years as each branch of the family tree used their contacts with the
wealthiest people all around the World to make even more money for the
family fortune. Her second family were the Turpis family, her father’s choice
of Godparents for her and Switchblade was like a second home to her growing
up. She is bilingual and takes great pleasure from meeting other Russians
in the city and often rants in her mother’s language when she is angry,
which, Bella being extremely hot blooded, is a lot of the time. Although she
was brought up with the world at her feet, Bella is always searching for that
little something extra, the one thing that will make her life meaningful. She
wants to be remembered as something more than a rich girl living in a city
when she dies. When she was young she believed that drugs could be that
something more, she loved the rush they gave her, the way everything was
suddenly so simple when she was high. She thought she had discovered who
she really was, deep down. When she was high, she liked herself. Since coming
back from prison, Bella has become a much edgier, colder person and dislikes people much easier than she used to be.

Hunger Hurts, But Starving Works.

Growing up so very much in the limelight, Bella has felt pressure to be
beautiful from a very young age. Graced with a naturally gracile bone
structure, her genes have been kind to her but being on the wrong side
of twentyfive and a mother she has begun to employ drastic measures
in order to maintain her slender figure. In fact, her body mostly gets by
on bottled water, multi vitamins, rice cakes and fruit, and very little of
it at that. But she is clever about it and people generally don't notice.
However, people do happen to notice her excessive need for attention
from the opposite sex, she feels as though it confirms her beauty,
which obviously plays a massive part in her happiness. She has issues
with trust and pushes most of the people who are close to her away
apart from a few people who have stuck by her throughout, she has
anxiety attacks in extreme situations and people often think she over
reacts to things so all in all Bella won't have many close friends. She
only really ever connects to people from the Turpis Family gang anyway
since she has some sort of rich person complex and usually feels a bit
awkward around people who are less privileged ;] Bella obviously already
has her BFF, Karissa, but other old friends would be great, if they're from
the years she dabbled in drugs they're only really going to be from Delinquo
Cartel though haha.

Hopelessly, I'll Love You Endlessly.


Bella has a ridiculously dysfunctional relationship with Benjamin Kanst which is
constantly on and off, they have the sort of love/hate relationship that has fireworks going off one minute and plates being thrown at each other's heads
the next, but due to past experiences with Ben, she doesn't exactly trust him
and has developed a sort of "if it's going to be done, i want to do it first"
approach, so she's not exactly faithful. I'm open to one night stands,
flings and full blown relationships for Bella, but she'll always go back to
Ben in the end; he's her soulmate after all :3

I Would Like To Reach Out My Hand.


Family is really close to Bella's heart, even though she may not express her
feelings very often. Her mother is very dear to her, especially now that she
doesn't have to live under the same roof as her! Bella has embraced her
Russian side and is particularly close to her mother's family, the Lazutina's
despite media accusations that they are closely linked to the Russian mafia.
She grew up as an only child, but who knows what her father got up to when
he was young, as the rich often do ... for Bella's family I'm basically open
to anything, cousins etc from either side of her family tree, half siblings ... anything! the more the merrier! ^^
Recently, Bella has been attempting to fill her life with children as this is what
she currently believes will fill the void in her life and give her more purpose.
That is not to say that Bella is a good mother, in actual fact her parenting
skills are similar to that of her own mother, which is to say that she leaves
other people to do the hard things and buys her children's affection with
presents and money.

[DIMITRI FEDIR ALEXANDROV]

alexandrov & hartsen

depends on the girls. if jess and bella become friends then dimitri will probably soon follow. for now though, not happening mainly because she's with ben.

clarke & hartsen

how about we just avoid a bella/mellie thread. because they'd honestly hate each other.

hollis & hartsen

both work for the turpis family. probably would know each other. probably would be slight friends. maybe he sees her as an older sister?

ryann & hartsen

i imagine tinsley would probably be slightly scared of bella. all she'd know is her reputation to be a bitch and that'd be enough to send her running.

Bella & Dimitri

Hey ^^ I'm hoping the girls do end up friends, I haven't
talked properly with Sam about how we're going to work
that one out yet though ... lol -makes mental note to do so-

Bella & Nicholas

Ooh, maybe once Bella's baby comes she could call on him to
do some babysitting [or something else? idk, maybe help her
do the groceries?] and he begins to confide in her?
