## Personality

Gavin is a quiet kid who loves football but constantly feels like he's headed for the same fate as his high school dropout father. Gavin struggles with reading, but despite that he enjoys audiobooks as well as art and drawing. Gavin is honest and if he promises to do something, he will do it.

Gavin gets irritated and annoyed at the slightest things and can be somewhat of a pessimist at times, such as avoiding Randi Cunningham in The Perfect Score and Secret, because of Randi befriending Natalie Kurtsman, and because Randi missed his football game. But underneath, Gavin is a good and forgiving kid who just needs a little time. He prefers to instead face conflicts by avoiding, and/or "resetting".

Gavin is a football-maniac. He loves to refer to a lot of stuff as football. He plays quarterback for the Lake View Middle Team. During his second year of middle school, he was benched primarily but played one drive of football, mixing running and tossing a touchdown from a play-action pass. He also played tight end and had one reception for around 30 yards, proving he's still good at catching. In the final game, he was allowed to play and passed for more than 300 yards and caught a quarterback catch (somewhat like a Philly Special/flea-flicker mix) In his third year, he was named the starter and worked hard, and led the team to a victory against another top-rated team. They went undefeated.

## Appearance

Not much is said about Gavin's appearance other than the fact that he has a Mexican-American heritage and is pictured with dark hair. However, in most drawings, he's depicted with a spiky haircut.

## Relationships

### Michael Davids (Father)

Gavin's father is a mostly honest person who believes in honesty.

### Randi Cunningham (Best Friend)

Randi and Gavin have been best friends since they were toddlers, having been the only two kids in the neighborhood. Gavin says that he and Randi never thought of themselves as boyfriend and girlfriend - despite his younger sister, Meggie, thinking so. In *The Perfect Secret*, Gavin gets jealous when he thinks that Kyle Cunningham was Randi’s boyfriend.

### Scott Mason (Close Friend)

Gavin states to have met Scott in kindergarten, where Scott roped him into one of his crazy ideas and the two got in trouble for it. Up until the sixth-grade, Gavin was always rather irritated with Scott. Once they were in middle school, the two started to become friends.

### Natalie Kurtsman (Friend)

Not much is said about the relationship between Gavin and Natalie other than the fact that until sixth-grade, Gavin hated Natalie — based on the history with their parents — and Natalie wasn't too fond of Gavin either. After uncovering the history between Gavin's father and Natalie's mother, the two decide to put the past behind them and start a friendship.
