brief history:
- alexia was born one glorious sunset evening on the 21st of april, twenty-five years ago. jessica and allan langton had always wanted a daughter, and so when alexia was born they named her after a mutual childhood friend of theirs and never tried for anymore children. they'd never been bothered about having a big family, and alexia was never a lonely child. her parents loved her, but they never spoiled her and so she never became a brat thankfully. her father used to read her stories when he got home from working, fast giving her a love for books and reading, and sometimes he used to take her to work with him and teach her about flowers. she found it interesting, even though she was only four at the time, and as she grew older he taught her more.

her mother taught her how to cook, something alexia took an interest in right from the go, and she found it apparently easy to follow instructions and get things right - in fact she started experimenting with ingredients as she got older, and began making her own dishes, which her parents both complimented. alexia went to school and she studied hard, getting good grades and all, but her real passion was cooking, and when she got the choice, she chose to follow her culinary skills, going to university to specialise in cooking, which when she was eighteen, is incidentally met her now husband.

simon was studying economics, wanting to make up his own business and alexia admired him for his ambition. he seemed like a nice guy - he was a year older than her, but neither of them cared, and they grew close before simon made a move and they got together properly. everything was fine at first, he was really sweet and he would always greet her with flowers or chocolates and she never thought he could hurt a fly.. until something alerted her to a second side of him. when he turned twenty he left uni and brought them both an apartment... but she was still at uni for another year, and she made a new friend called carl.

simon didn't like carl... at first alexia just laughed off his little comments, thinking he was joking... but then carl started to get possessive over her, telling her to stop talking to carl, taking her phone and checking her texts. alexia told him to stop it and simon seemed to back off.. but then when she went to class the next day, carl turned up late... covered in bruises. he avoided her completely and when she finally managed to corner him after class he told her that simon had told him to back off. carl never spoke to her after that. alexia was gutted, and her and simon fought all night, before he broke down and applogised, saying he couldn't loose her and tha he was sorry.

two months later he proposed, and they married three months later when she turned twenty and finished her course. things where great for the first year, they were more in love than ever and alexia got her job as a cook at the local restaurant and happily got stuck into it, promoted to head chef within two months for her quality of cooking and her management of staff. but after that year, things started to go bad. alexia and a guy from work had become friends - just friends, her and brad weren't even that close and he was in love with his own girlfriend...but all it took was for simon to see them having a laugh together coming out of the restaurant after work one evening and he snapped. but this time, he didn't punch out at the guy, this time, he hit her.

it was a shock to say the least. she'd always though he was the kindest, most gentlest man she'd ever met... and suddenly he was hitting her, hard. and it hurt. she dissapeared that night, back to her parents who told her to leave him. but she couldn't, she still loved him despite it, and the next day she returned to him where he applogised profusely once more and promised it'd never happen again. only it did, and it became more frequent. if she was late from work he'd lash out... if he saw her even looking at another guy he might grab her tightly and shake her. sometimes he'd just yell when they got home, sometimes he'd physically hurt her, but each time it terrified her. by their third year of marriage when she was twenty-three, she wanted out. she tried to divorce him, but when he saw the papers he freaked out, hurting her worse than ever and causing her to end up in hospital. of course he lied about what had happened, and alexia was too scared of the consequences to tell anyone the truth. her parents knew, but she couldn't let them get involved, scared her husband would get them instead.

when she turned twenty-four, simon told her he wanted kids. alexia refused, scared to death that he'd be the same with the children as he was with her and not wanting her children to grow up like that, even if she wanted to have a family. simon backed off for a few months after that - she thought he'd go crazy but apparently it'd made him quiet, which scared her more than anything. she didn't know what he was thinking or planning. he started to work more and more which gave her more time to herself, more time to escape. she was desperate to get out of the marriage but she's run out of options, with most of her friends scared off, not wanting to bring her parents into it, and too afraid by herself she doesn't think she'll ever get away...

habits:

- runs her hands through her hair when she's frustrated or anxious

overall personality:
- alexia isn't the same as she used to be, though if simon isn't around she reverts more to her old safe. she used to be very gentle at heart, one of those girls who would sit at the front of the class and want to help everyone out and be there for people.. and yeah she's still like that - if someone's crying, even if she doesn't know them, she wants to go over and see if they're okay or if there's something she can do. she's always about other people, how other people are feeling and thinking rather than her own self. she used to be soft-hearted and easy to talk to, quite open and up for a joke and a drink with friends, sometimes a bit of fun out on the town...

but she's not so outgoing anymore. she's shrunken back into a shell since simon became abusive. if she's with him she'll barely say two words to people, scared she'll say something to upset him or make him angry, and she can't look people in the eye. she feels easily intimidated by people, particularly guys, and she's self concious. she's less likely to speak up for herself or anything like that, and most of the time she'll blame herself for things even if they're not her fault because simon will always tell her that he's angry because of her, that it's her fault.

without him around she relaxes a little, and she's a little more open, but she takes a while to start to trust people properly, and she's always afraid that someone's going to hurt her again like simon did; that they're lying to her. she'll keep the conversation away from herself, sometimes giving it the appearance that she's mysterious or secretive, but she doesn't mean to be, she just doesn't want people to judge her or agree that this is her fault or get scared off. she's genuine and honest, trustworthy and above all considerate, patient and gentle... if only she could get rid of simon she'd feel so much better..[/size][/ul]
