Carly had let herself into the lake house, knowing full well the other was hurting. The forum proved enough. "Aus?" the woman walked in, settling on the couch with the greasy fast food in hand. "I know you're upset, but you're kinda being a dick!" She yelled, assuming that he'd come out eventually. "I have french fries and the afternoon free, come talk to me!"

Carly smiled, nodding as she lay down. After a morning of no AC, no windows, this was refreshing. "Absolutely. I've been coming here since I was a kid, it's a good hiding spot when you need to get away." Sitting up, Carly looked over- I've probably got an extra towel in my car if you want to lay out? Relax a bit?"

"Sunshine is good for everyone, Reags. Helps with vitamin D and everything." She hummed, only listening for a few seconds more before sitting up, head cocked. "And now you've got my full attention, so you can hand me a drink- and start spilling."

“i’m starting to think this is your way to say that i need to get some sun, carly.” reagan says teasingly, turning to carly with a smirk on her expression. the woman had been taking it easy with everything as of late, given how much she had been through over the years before coming to hidehill. with the news about the deaths though…she was starting to wonder if it was the right decision coming there, but, those thoughts were immediately reasoned out with the need to see her brother after all this time. “i’d hate to ask…since we’re supposed to be outside and you’re not supposed to do your little magic on me, but…” reagan pauses, taking a deep breath, before continuing. “let’s just forget it. i brought us drinks?”

"Personal experience?" Carly laughed, watching the other lay back before tossing her phone to do the same. "Unfortunately though, it's not the strangest conversation I've had with some of my clients." Only sitting forward to pull her hair into a ponytail, "What brings you out here?"

Perhaps he shouldn’t have found it quite as funny as he did, but it was hard not to. There was just something about talk to text that he couldn’t get behind. Perhaps it was simply how professional it seemed? As though that was a bad thing. Or perhaps it was just from the personal experience he had with the large number of mistyped texts as a result. “Better make sure to spell check that shit. Next thing you know they’re going to be trying to chat you up via porn. Then everyone’s day is ruined.” Ben teased as he plopped down beside her with a light thud. “I want you to move over. You’re sittin’ in my sun.” He added as he proceeded to lean back against his arms in the sand.

✦ CARLY ROSS the THIRTY TWO year old has been in Hidehill for HER ENTIRE LIFE. Whispers on the streets are that the THERAPIST who lives in HARTLEY AVENUE are said to be HARDWORKING, CARING and GUARDED but I guess we’ll find out for ourselves✦

tw: mentions of infidelity, parental death

Name: Carly Ross (She/her)

FC: Emmy Rossum

Age: 32 (She’s a libra, I can feel it in my bones)

Living in: Harley Avenue

Occupation: Therapist 

Aesthetic-y things: “You’re on your own kid” by Taylor Swift || But also “August” by Taylor Swift ||Cigarettes in between therapy sessions || Messy Hair and Yesterdays make up || Late night work sessions with a bottle of wine || Infectious laughter || Do no harm but take no shit || Work hard play hard

Growing up:  Carly had lived in hide hill her entire life. To her knowledge, she’s an only child, but how she grew up- one could never be too sure. She had a generally happy childhood growing up, until the age of ten. When it came to light that her father cheated on her mother, things started falling apart. The divorce was quick, her mother wasting no time. Young Carly was bouncing in between homes, watching her mother struggle to make bills while her father got to play house with a new family. It wasn’t fair. It wasn’t too far into her teens did she start lashing out against him. Dad tried putting her through therapy- with terrible therapists that she despised. She instead started spending more time with Mom, when she wasn’t working and trying to contribute to the house. 

College into adulthood: Carly left town briefly, on a fast track to a master’s degree in mental health. She loved living on a college campus, she loved having her own space, he own time, she could relax and learn the way she wanted to. She put everything into school, and busted her ass to get to where she is today.  Her mom passed away before she could graduate, and dad did not dare to show his face. 

Now: She’s back in Hidehill, working out of an office space she rents to provide therapy. She loves her job, will work with anyone who needs it, but has a soft spot for kids stuck in custody battles. She often partners with the local schools and hospitals when they need support. She lives with her Cat Rosco, who often comes to the office with her. Eventually she wants to open her own clinic. She does her own thing, making friends along the way. 

Connections: 

A step sibling or two could be fun and dramatic, if Dad wants to make a comeback to hidehill. 

Friends always wanted!! 

Partners and Exs

College buddies

Coworkers/business partners 

Clients!!! 

This will probably be added to as I go.
