Chevelle is a bit of a free spirit as her mother would say. She could look around and see the beauty and magic in everything. From the smallest bug to the tallest building. Many of her teachers would say that she had an artistic eye and with every piece she did in school, she only got better at her gift. She is a bit OCD though when she finally sits down to get started. She has to be at a desk that had plenty of elbow room, her pencil box overfilling with different colored pencils, her mountain dew within arms reach and her ipod to get her creative muse flowing. She tends to lose herself when she starts working on a piece. She could end up spending the entire day working on a piece, adding all the little details that would make it perfect.

Outside of her artistic skills, Chevelle is a bubbly person. Ever since she was a small kid she would always have a smile painted on her face. She is always optimistic, trying to see good even in the grimmest moments. She tends to use humor in bleak moments to try and lighten everyones mood. Negative energy makes her feel uncomfortable and tends to mess up her muse.

She is a very sociable person and loves to meet new people through her job. Seriously, her job is a great way to get to know people and make new friends. She will have a person in her chair and will be working on their piece and she will ask for the meaning behind the tattoo. They will open up to her about their life, friends and family and by the end of it they leave happy.

She is fun loving and energetic girl. She tends to go out a lot after work. Either to go hang out with friends or just have fun at a club. The only time the girl sits still is when she is working on piece.

She loves to be spontaneous and a bit silly. Through out the day she will randomly bust out in song, give Dekker a hug, meow occasionally throughout the day, and play the "Mission Impossible" theme and shadow behind Dekker just to name a few things.

Considering she is a pretty happy young woman, Chevelle tends to get the raw end of the deal. She has been burned a few times from people coming to her and asking for help. People have stolen money from her, lied to her, tricked her, and a few broke her heart. One person use has done all of those things would be her father who cheated on her mother and left when she was 9 years old.



Family is so important to Phoebe. She was an only child of her parents, well at least for her mother anyways. Her father had been cheating for god knows how long, so she might have a half sibling out there somewhere. When her mother found out about her father’s lies and affairs, she kicked him out and got a divorce. Her mother changed their last name back to Ashford. At first she was alittle upset when her mother kicked out her father and wouldn’t let him come back to see them. After a few years of pleading with her mother, she finally gave in and told Phoebe the real reason why her father had to leave. At first she was confused but she could see where her father did something wrong. But it didn’t give her mother a reason to forbid him from coming to see her, right?

When she turned fifteen, she got a call on her birthday from her father. He wished her a happy birthday and apologized for not getting her a present this year…coughing and slurring his words as he spoke into the phone. At first she was too excited to really noticed and asked him to meet her that weekend in town for dinner. After begging and using the puppy eyes through the phone her father finally sighed and said he would come. Super excited she counted down till the weekend came, picking out an outfit and everything. When the day finally came she left early and sat at the table, looking out the window to watch for him to walk in. An hour later she was still sitting there alone. Thinking he had a reason for being late she continued to wait. Two hours later she was still there resting her head on the table as her mother walked in. When she picked up her head she could see her mother standing there, looking at her with sadness all over her face. Her mother took her home and apologized for her father’s behavior. That was the longest car ride and she fought not to break down in her seat. It was the first time she had her heart broken.

A year later when she had her first job at a local fast food restaurant. Her father would start to pop in while she was working. At first she refused to talk to him, but one day when she was sitting down having her lunch break he came over and sat next to her. He told her how sorry he was and even crying a bit. When he looked at her like that she couldn’t help but hug the rough looking man. She should have known something was up from the way that he looked and even smelled. His clothes were dirty and a size too big, his breath smelled of boozes, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was so skinny. Being the nice person, she invited him over for dinner one night when she knew her mother would still be at work. When he agreed she couldn’t help but get excited. She cooked up dinner and set the table, watching the clock tick away. When the door bell rang she jumped from her chair and ran to the door, hugging her father as she invited him inside.

After dinner she noticed how weird he was acting. He didn’t look her in the eyes and he was fidgeting with his fingers in his lap. He excused himself to go to the bathroom and headed upstairs. Twenty minutes later he came back down only to excuse himself again, saying he wasn’t feeling well and had to leave. He rushed out the door and she was left standing there dumbfounded. It wasn't until her mother came home and asked why there were things missing from her room that she found out why he left in such a hurry. From her mother's room there were a few jewelry boxes missing, the money she had in her dresser, and even some of her perfumes from her vanity stand. Phoebe rushed to her room and noticed things were missing. Her bank card was gone, DVD’s, and her money from her jean pocket. He lied to get into their house so he could steal from them. Heartbroken once again, Phoebe quit her job and her mother moved them to another part of town.

Once everything settle down, things were back to normal. She finished school with honors and got a job at a local tattoo shop in LA. She was there for years until she decides that she wanted to travel to Europe. Her mother encouraged her to follow her dreams and that is where she lived, getting a job at Hell on Heels. Life couldn't be better for the young woman
