Gaia Alexandria Williams was one of a kind human being. She was born to Monique Williams and Clay Williams. The couple had Gaia at 26 and her sister, Raven, at 28. They were one of those lucky one percent high school sweethearts that actually stayed together after high school. Gaia had a semi-normal childhood, with both of her parents coming from wealthy families. Some would say she had a supersized silver spoon in her mouth. However, unlike the usual dumb wealthy parents, her mom and dad instilled a sense of humbleness and self-sufficiency that surprises anyone who meets her.

Her family was super close during her childhood. The Williams were one of those families that had dinner every night, game nights, and even multiple trips every year. Gaia and Raven were so attached people often mistaken them for twins.

Tragedy struck in the Williams household when Gaia turned 11. She and Her mom lost her father and her sister that day. The family decided to celebrate her birthday together alone and have a party the day after. While driving back to their house, they had a brutal car accident, which devastated them. Ever since that day, she has carried a substantial level of survivor guilt and abandonment issues no 11-year-old should take on.

Gaia was one of those kids made to be in the spotlight. She was confident, Charismatic, hardworking, and creative. Her mom entered her into Pageants and child modeling at a young age, where Gaia excelled. She got multiple pageant title wins, modeling gigs, and even commercials.

Her dad put her in boxing for exercise and self-defense. Her dad's side had a long history of boxing, so he wanted to pass the tradition down. Also, in the 1st grade, she punched a kid who was bullying me so hard that she knocked a tooth out. It was a loose baby tooth, but it sounds cooler if I say it like that. Because of that incident, he figured boxing would be a good extra circular activity.

We were attached at the hip ever since she went Mayweather on that kid's ass. I was already friends with Lexi, so when Gaia became part of our group, it was like she was the right condiment for our cooked meal. Sure, Lexi and I were great, but Gaia took it to another level. On the outside, you would be confused about why we were close because of how different we were, but our personalities meshed well. We were the perfect odd threesome.

Now a friendship that made sense was hers and Maddy. Being in pageants is how Gaia met her. They were each other in competition, usually battling between who would be the winner and runner-up. Gaia would win most of the time, but only by the skin of her teeth. Ironically, their competitive relationship was what brought them together. Gaia loved that Maddie pushed her to step her game up and vice versa. And It didn't hurt that they had the exact same birthday.

Their relationship went through a rough patch because of one thing; fucking Nate Jacobs. Weirdly enough, Nate was Gaia's oldest best friend. They were pretty close since they were pre-k until he turned 11. Out of nowhere, he turned from the nicest kid to this total asshole. Even with this information, for some odd reason, Gaia started dating Nate in freshman year. The relationship was great for 9 months. They told secrets nobody knew, they fell in love and even lost their virginity to each other. It all went downhill when it was revealed that Gaia lied about her previous relationship with a boy named Harvey Johnson. Nate broke up with her after the revelation, but they got back together a month after. Not even a couple of weeks after they reconcile, Nate started to cheat on Gaia. When she found out, she broke up with him at the end of that school year.

What really hurt was when Maddy started dating in her sophomore year. One flaw that Gaia has is that when she feels personally betrayed or if her friends are personally hurt, she turns into a complete psycho. When Gaia found out about Maddie and Nate, she went ballistic. She beat the shit out of both of them. It was scary and kind of hot at the same time. However, she wasn't done. She proceeded to hook up with Nate in front of Maddy's face. Whenever Nate and Maddy would go through a breakup every month, Gaia would slither her way back to Nate and make sure Maddy knew and revel in the aftermath. They were basically in a sister-wives situation for about a good 3 months. Eventually, the two girls waved the white flag and realized they had just missed each other. Gaia didn't do this to get back with Nate; she was more pissed that he had taken Maddy away from her. So she promised she would just leave Nate alone, and they would mend their relationship. Weirdly enough, going through that made them closer in a fucked up way.

Present Gaia is among the most popular, if not the most, girls in the school and town. Looking at her, you would think she was a typical vapid, shallow mean girl. But the girl I grew up with is one of the most selfless, sensitive, loyal, and passionate people I know.
