The first thing you notice about this boy is his his height and build. This young boy is quite short for his age, and it is speculated he won't grow much taller - he seemed to have gotten the bad side of the gene lottery, gaining his mother's short stature. He's always teased by his siblings who gain their father's height ; this boy stands at a height of 5 feet, 2 inches and it's thought that he won't grow up more to 5 feet , 7 or 8 inches at most when he's an adult. But for now he has to deal with being vertically challenged, but of course he doesn't let his height get the best of him. As for his build, he can be said to be having a more slender frame with a light amount of muscles ; his body being built more more for speed, flexibility, endurance and stamina rather than brute strength and being a powerhouse. This little guy may not look it, but he can lift ; he can carry stacks of boxes without breaking a sweat even though they're taller than him and he can barely see past them. Also, one can hardly beat him in a foot race - there's one undisputed known fact about him, hes quick on his feet ; you see him and then you don't, his legs may be short but it's a sight to see them pumping when he's running as if he's one with the wind. One can see the evidence of his hard work and never skipping leg day as he has well defined calf muscles and thick and healthy thighs ; he loves running and takes a moment to go on morning and afternoon jog every day. Another thing is he's a climber as well, and he's also one to be able to slip into small spaces as well - being small has it's advantages, he may be small but he's mighty. For now, his chest is rather flat, not gaining much muscle - yet, but when he's older he will have what can be described as slight "boobage" as his friends will teasingly call it in the future. However one can see the beginning of muscles on his stomach, and one can note that he has a rather slender waist with dip hips ; a waist that most girls would die for and that's constantly getting him confused for the opposite sex and his stature and face doesn't help either.
You immediately notice this young man's face ; the soft and round features and big doe eyes, and not to mention the boyish grin that seems to light up a room. When it comes to skin tone ; this boy can be described as being kissed by the sun and dipped in honey. His golden-bronze skin having a beautiful sheen when exposed to the sun, and in the winter his skin tone lightens up due to their not being a lot of sun, and he can grow rather pale and cool in tone but in the summer when he's out in the sweltering heat his tone increasingly darkens with how much he's out and can linger until the tan fades away. His is soft and velvety to the touch, the only out of place thing being the soft "peach fuzz" of hair that grows on his face , otherwise he has rather smooth skin. His skin has little to no pores, meaning that he doesn't get that much acne easily which is a blessing, however when he does get it, it comes on heavily. The only way he gets acne is when he's been eating too much sweets or the oil in his hair is irritating his face of his sheets are dirty ( he is a very clean person so this is a highly unlikely cause) ; and when dealing with the acne, he's fortunate that they leave minimal to no scarring on his face when they are dealt with (and even the scars fade away with proper treatment!) . Overall, he's blessed with some pretty good skin genetics. This boy has a heart-shaped face, with round and puffy cheeks that puff out much like a pufferfish when he's annoyed or pouting, and grow a light shade of coral when he's embarrassed by something or a deep shade of red that creeps to his neck and ears when he's flustered by something. Mainly, it is when he's panicking over someone complimenting him or they have the balls to dare to actually flirt with him (how scandalous) especially when it's a guy - it makes his brain malfunction, because, hello? Cute guy flirting with him ? It makes no sense, shouldn't he be focusing on some cute girl and not a dude. He's not a girl! However that doesn't seem to stop the flirts coming from either gender, and it leaves him rather warm and fuzzy but also very confused, because that's wrong . . . right ?
He has a rather attractive jawline with a slightly sharp chin, it gives him some sort of grace in letting others know his gender but he still can be quite confusing. Why? It's no help that he has rather pretty and interesting eyes ; for one thing he has eyes with what is called heterochromia, specifically sectoral heterochromia. His right eye is a pretty and soft sapphire like shade of blue, reminding of of the rough and deep seas, and if you look close enough their is a big of a dark green hidden within them - adding to the fact they appear like a murky sea. Now, his left eye is rather interesting, it is split horizontally with the top and bottom being entirely different colors- the top half being a light and warm brown color, intermixed with flecks of a golden undertone and and slight hints of grey giving it an almost hazel looking appearance. The bottom half is a darker almost chocolate appearing brown and with in is just what can be described as a splash of a pale blue hue with a hint of lime green within. His eyes are big, round and doe-like - giving him an gentle and innocent appearance, and what also most would say a more "feminine" appearance but somehow his eyes suit him very well. He definitely looks beautiful in photos or portraits - and not to mention, the way his eyes light up when excited or seem to get comically round and big when excited . His eyes are rather expressive and he can be too. They are framed by long and curled dark lashes that add to them even more, making his eyes appear slightly bigger and accenting them. Overall, his eyes are something that one can easily get lost in or flatter him about.
When it comes to his lips, this young man has what can be described as rather full and plump lips. They sort of stick out, almost as if he's in a permanently pouting about something. His lips are rather soft, as he constantly uses some type of balm on them to make sure they don't dry out - he absolutely hates having cracked and dry lips. His lip color can be described as a soft pinkish hue with a noticeable reddish hue to them. One can say he has rather kissable lips. As for when he smiles, he has a rather charming smile - one full of light and joy. He has what can be described as cute bunny teeth, with a gap in between his two front teeth. His teeth are a rather healthy shade of white with the natural yellowish off-white hue that comes with them. He has a rather simple nose ; a nose that can be described as a button nose - and it wrinkles in disgust when he's upset, quite like a rabbit at times. As for his hands, he has rather small hands, ones that are soft and smooth - like leather almost. Hands that are used a lot ; for climbing, for sewing, and whatever they can be used for in hard work - yet, there is also care and love within these hands of his. His fingers are slender and delicate, very feminine looking - yet, they have a certain ruggedness to them. When it comes to other markings and interesting features on his body, one can note the assortment of beauty marks that do this young man's body ; on his face near the corner of his right eye he has three small beauty marks, then on the top left corner and bottom right corner of his lips he has one as well, their is even a beauty mark on the center of his bottom lip. He also has some along his neck, check, and back along with some on other parts of him, but it's safe to say he has quite a few beauty marks. And then on the left side of his neck is a birth mark in the shape of what can be described as a heart.
When it comes to his hair, he has a whole lot of it - the hair being very thick and healthy, and as for its length ; it rests neatly at his waist and at his elbows for the front portion for his hair. Having a lot of hair annoys him because it's a lot of maintenance - yet, he has it for one reason only, his mother ; she had the prettiest hair he'd ever seen and his is exactly like it, and when he takes care of his hair it reminds him of the long nights she spent humming him a lullaby as she softly brushed his hair or them getting ready for an event and her fussing over how to style it. These fond memories of her are why he keeps his hair long and makes sure to take good care of it even if he gets teased for having long hair or it annoys him at times - it's a reminder of his mother and his mother is very dear to him. His hair is the color of the night - ebony curls that remind one of a starless night or the infinite void of spaces, his hair is so dark that their is a slight dark cerulean hue to it when it graces the sunlight. His hair is curly, and rather fussy at times, not to mention voluminous - being hard to tame and constantly in a state of frizz and poofed out if he's not careful, however his hair is rather versatile in being able to style ; he can take oil and slick it back into a ponytail, braid, or any updo style he can think of - and when he straightens it, he is able to take a various amount of forms. His hair is very strong, being able to take constant heat and roughness when it comes to dyes or any other harsh treatment he might do on his hair. His hair also has a certain healthy sheen and it seems to glisten at times ; he's rather proud of his hair and protective of it, it's his worst nightmare for someone to cut it when he's sleep. If there is anything that's true, this boy is proud of his long hair, even if it gets in his eyes at times - he wouldn't change for the world, and anyone who hates on his hair can kiss his ass (derogatory).

But Also, His Words Become Unfriendly And Unkind And Their Is A Dangerous And Unsettling Aura That Engulfs Him.

- His Mother : If Their Is One Person That He Loves The Most - It's His Mom. He Adores Her, And Would Do Anything For Her, He Is The Definition Of A Mama's Boy.
