Vianna Rawlins cause he stole all the girls back then

[@cimmerianfable]

Vianna Rawlins....... For being "too pretty"

[@user-fo2dy8ec3m]

Vianna Rawlins because he is successful and talented and people can't deal with the fact that they failed at life and someone else achieved everything he ever wanted because god gave him talent so they are jealous and they feel so bad about themselves that they have to bring him down to push themselves higher and feel great

I was totally ridiculous when I was that age and I didn't have money so yeah :D:D I don't know what I would've done hahaha. And now, ever since he grew up and I realised he was just a kid...I'm basically in love with him and his personality XD it's crazy :D

[@ruus4347]

Black Storm any luck?

[@cyndrianaa]

The fact that he mentioned Selena's tattoo when he absolutely didn't have to shows that this tattoo is really meaningful to him. Plus he's never removed the tattoo when he's had the possibility to do so (and he recently said he doesn't regret ANY of his tattoos) and still hasn't got a tattoo of the lOvE oF hIs LiFe. Now tell me he loves Hailey as much as he loves Selena. If he truly loved Hailey and if he's gonna go out there pretending Hailey has always been the one and Selena was not so important to him he would've at least removed Selena's tattoo...
