Bad Boy

Bad Boy, a character in the My Two First Loves series, is a student at Eastridge High and one of your love interests. His default name is "Noah" but the player can pick a name for him. He is first seen in Chapter 3.

Appearance
Bad Boy's look is determined by the player. Regardless of this choice, he wears a black leather jacket, a white t-shirt and gray jeans. He has a small circular scar on his side.

Personality
Bad Boy is generally quiet and keeps to himself. He says that everyone -his mom, the principal, the whole school- expects trouble from him, so he doesn't worry about disappointing anyone. If the standard is set so low and little things are blown out of proportion, there's not much use in trying to fight expectation. Although smart, he is not always a good student. However, he tries to keep his grades up, as he needs to pass his classes to stay on the football team, which he considers to be his best chance of going to college.

Your Character
He saves you from a drug dealer in Chapter 3. In Chapter 8, you are both sent to the principal's office for leaving campus for lunch. After you two are dismissed, he asks you out.

In Chapter 11, you decide to go out with him and he takes you to a club. When your dad texts you and interrupts your date, he rushes you back and home and comes up with a plausible excuse to why he is at your house. He tells your father that you're his history tutor. In Chapter 15, he admits to needing a tutor so you begin to tutor him after you return from your dinner with the Jennings. You are surprised to discover that he's a great student and has a sharp mind. He invites you to go out for coffee to refuel and if you decide to take him up on it, he tells you more about his family. He tells you that he is aware he needs to have good grades to keep his spot on the football team and possibly get a football scholarship into college. Although if that were to happen, he is not sure if he will take it because he doesn't want to leave his mom and younger sister and wants to help support them.

In Chapter 18, you have the premium opportunity to hang out with him after the accidental kiss between you and Childhood Crush. If you decide to, he opens up about his family. He used to be closer to his older brother, but the latter left home a few years ago and he hasn't seen him in a while. In Chapter 21, he made first string on the football team and you have the premium opportunity to sneak into the boys' locker room to congratulate him. If you do, he'll tell you that he was into bad stuff when he was younger but won't elaborate. You two will kiss again and you'll leave through the back door when you hear the rest of the football team approaching.

In Chapter 22, when you fall off the human pyramid, he tends to your injured arm. In Chapter 23, Childhood Crush tells you that Bad Boy waited with him in the nurse's office for you, but he had to leave to go to his part-time job.

It is up to you if Bad Boy or Childhood Crush becomes the quarterback for the match but either way, both impress the audience during the game.

You also choose whether he or Childhood Crush becomes your Homecoming date. If you choose Childhood Crush, Bad Boy will interrupt your dance at the end of Chapter 35, which emotionally confuses you. Even if you tell Bad Boy in Chapter 36 that you want to dance with your actual date, when Childhood Crush leaves you two alone Bad Boy will get physically close to you and tell you that he won't give up fighting for you. When Childhood Crush asks you instead of Lauren to dance with him when crowned Homecoming king, Bad Boy will interrupt and start a fight.

Childhood Crush
In Chapter 4, it's revealed that there are rumors that the reason why Bad Boy went to juvie is that he robbed Childhood Crush's house. Childhood Crush is mad when he sees Bad Boy again, especially since they are both on the same team, and both want to be the QB. They later work together during a match and both impress the audience.

In Chapter 36, regardless of who is your Homecoming date, a fight between them will erupt which leads to an intervention by the principal. Principal Jennings assigns them to work on the winter wonderland as punishment, and after a few days, Childhood Crush comes to Bad Boy to talk about the robbery and get everything out in the open.

During freshman year while you were preoccupied and distant due to your mother's death, Childhood Crush and Bad Boy became best friends. They bonded at junior varsity football try-outs and later spent a lot of time together. Childhood Crush trusted him, and gave him the security code to his house for Bad Boy to use whenever Childhood Crush and his family were out of town. Elijah persuaded Bad Boy to break in and steal the cash they keep in Principal Jennings's office as a way to help their mother. However, Principal Jennings caught him and shot him.

Principal Jennings
In Chapter 8, when both you and Bad Boy are summoned to the principal's office, you overhear parts of their conversation where Principal Jennings mentions a deal between them.

Parents
Bad Boy mentions both his mother and father in Chapter 8. His father gave him the knife that is confiscated by Mrs. Applegate. According to Bad Boy, his mother just like the principal expects trouble from him. Later, he reveals that his father wasn't in the picture as long as he can remember.

His mother used to work as a barista and had three jobs to buy her children new clothes. Bad Boy says that he used to come help her at work sometimes, which taught him how to pull an espresso shot and how to appreciate good coffee.

As for his father, Bad Boy felt like everything he did was wrong in his father's eyes, no matter how hard he tried. He felt intimidated by the older man, and he felt that he was never understood.
