Leonardo Zuski

**Housemates:** | Dad, Lyle & Landon

* **Eye Colour:** Brown
* **Height:** 5'9" (1.75 m)

There was a point in time where he used to be really short but along with puberty he started growing taller. He's definitely not the tallest in his family or at school but he's in the middle of height ranges which is pretty good. He does wear name brand clothing but he's not really picky. A few his clothes are hand me downs from his dad and his brother which is okay but he's not exactly happy about that. He likes wearing patterned t-shirts. He never really shaves his hair, he used to when he was younger. He usually keeps it in the same hairstyle. His hair is naturally black and he was dark brown eyes.

He used to have a girlfriend but he ended up dumping her due to his lack of belief in romantic feelings. His parents’ divorce is actually killing his love life and he decided he doesn't want anything to do with it until he's like thirty or forty. He's pretty much used to living the rich life but has learned to not take this for granted because he's been at rock bottom before, and he doesn't want to end up there again.

He is a really calm guy, and is very laid-back for the most part. He doesn't like when things become too complicated or serious for him. He doesn't like to argue much and he doesn't take negative comments personally. He can get stressed when he feels like things are moving too fast for him or when things are just beyond his control. Even though he's not very serious, he also doesn't like chaos. He just wants to avoid it. He doesn't like it when the different parts of his life combine and cause chaos for him. He likes to get along with everyone but he knows that won't ever happen because certain people from different groups can't just hang out with each other.

So she divorced Chandler and moved in with some rich guy who promised to take care of her and love her. And now eight year old nine year old Lyle, six year old Leonardo and four year old Landon were very dirt poor living paycheck by paycheck. Chandler was desperate to earn more money for the sake of his three young sons at home. He tried to get a second job as a construction worker but Leo convinced him that he could injure himself or possibly die in the process.
So at his wits end he decided to buy a lottery ticket with the little amount of change he had in his pocket. He didn't believe he would win but it was worth a try. He ended up winning a few million dollars which he first bought a better house in Lebeaux with and put the rest in his children's savings accounts. With their new status, he pulled them out of their schools and enrolled them in Harrington Grammar School. When he was in was in second grade, he father started dating women after women. He and his brothers never really met anyone of them because his dad would go on dates at night when Leo and Landon were asleep. Most of the time, Chandler didn't even get a babysitter because he had Lyle watching them.
A year later, he met a girl Xochitl in his third grade class. She was picked on a lot due to her braces and glasses and her being so short. So anyway he becomes friends with her because he just like, she has no friends so I'll just be her friend. They become really close friends. She started having feelings for him. When they were ten. He didn't notice these feelings till he was like twelve or thirteen. He was too busy with his school work and his dad was encouraging him to focus more on his work than on his friend so avoided her for a bit which hurt her feelings.
In eighth grade, Xochitl finally got her braces taken out and her vision became perfect. Xochitl felt more beautiful than ever and her confidence levels grew.
When he he turned thirteen he started eventually started going out with Xochitl like everyone predicated. Their relationship was okay button it wasn't too serious. They held hands in the hallway, kissed hug and all of that romantic stuff. However her friends kept teasing her about how her relationship was completely fake because they hadn't slept together. Of course wanting to fit in, she kept talking to him. But Leo was like so not into it, and he just relay wanted to wait.
He started thinking about how all she wanted was sex, and that the second she had it, she would dump him. He though about all his dad's failed relationships with different women and the divorce with his mother. So he started thinking that "being in love" was just some big lie and he needed to just get along with his life than waste his time. So he dumped Xochitl and offered to stay friends but so far she hasn't really accepted and she's just super hurt. So he's pretty much avoiding her in school and he's trying to get used to be in eleventy grade.

* **Lyle Zuski:** His older brother, Lyle will always have Leonardo's back, they may not get along the best and Lyle maybe much cooler than he is but they never hold grudges against each other. They work extremely well together and Lyle pushes him to do more and be his best and more importantly not to give up on love because Lyle's afraid Leo's beliefs will not allow him to experience the good stuff in life.
* **Landon Zuski:** His younger brother who Leonardo mentors. Landon may be cool and popular but he looks up to Leonardo as a role model and an older brother. Landon does his best to protect him from the bullies and stick up for him.
