Aiden Banes had it all. He was smart, funny, good looking, he came from a moderately well off family and was at the top of his school's social ladder. It made no sense to anyone but himself, but the moment he laid eyes on the awkward and fidgety new girl on the first day of his senior year of high school, he fell desperately in love with her and from that point on planned to be with her and only her. Katie Harding was Aiden's complete opposite. She wasn't a beauty queen, nor was she a social butterfly. She wasn't athletic or artistic, mostly she kept to herself reading her way through the library one page at a time. It was shocking when he finally worked up the courage, yes courage, to ask her on a date and though she wanted to ask why, or say no convinced that it was some dull and embarrassing prank that he and his friends wanted to pull, she surprised herself and said yes. They were on and off after graduation, Katie left home to attend college while Aiden remained in the city, attending a college close to home. In the end all seemed to turn out right, the day Katie was given her diploma was the day Aiden asked her to marry him. The answer was obviously a yes, and within the next six months a wedding was planned and finally after almost six years of being a couple, Aiden and Katie became Mr and Mrs Banes. They both got jobs, bought a house and by the time they were ready to start their family, Katie was pregnant with their first child. On the 30th of April, 1987 after twelve intense hours of labor, the couple welcomed their first child, Finnegan Malcolm into their hearts and into their family.
He was always a happy kid. His childhood consisted of nothing but grand adventures, snack time and running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off. He wasn’t the most well behaved child imaginable, and while his parents had wished, hoped for the perfect child, as every parent does, they were as far from upset to watch their son grow into the person he is today.
Music lessons, organized sports, the Banes were more than enthusiastic to expose their children to everything and anything that they could while trying to help them discover who they truly were. For a while Finn wasn’t interested in any of it until he found his niche. The piano became his escape, he took lessons three times a week and spent hours upon hours stretching his fingers across the ivory keys in a vain attempt to better his skill so that one day he could become famous and make a ton of money smashing out songs on a grand piano for thousands of fans. He picked it up fast. By the time he was twelve, the piano became less amazing. His social life started to pick up and girls began flooding his world with their soft skin and sweet smells, he couldn’t be bothered to practise half as often as he did before life as he knew it was turned upside down by the thought of girls underwear and how pulling their hair made them squeal ever so amazingly. He stopped playing entirely the day he broke his arm climbing a tree while at school trying to impress the girl of his dreams. That was that, anything he had ever wanted out of life was no longer fun.
By the time graduation rolled around, Finn had made the decision to not attend any form of post-secondary education. He had no idea what he might want to do with his life nor was he under any delusion that he could figure that out at the young age of 18, especially with his piano hopes and dreams having been thrown out the window so early on. Instead he chose to work and save money while he remained living comfortably with his parents. It wasn't until after his 20th birthday that Finn made the choice to leave home. He had convinced himself that he was in love with a girl and that was reason enough to leave his home in Portland, where he had a job and free lodgings to relocate to Phoenix, Arizona. Not necessarily his brightest move. They didn't last very long, and eventually he found himself in Phoenix basically alone.
