Belle Francis

Early Life, Family/Friends, and School
Belle Francis was born on May 18, 1993 in Queens, New York before moving near Broadway when she was about five. She was born to Maxwell and Christine Francis, a play director and a ballerina. She currently attends Central Academy Jr. High/High School, along with her two best friends, Maggie Pollock and Rick Gregory. Maggie is a very understanding person, and very sarcastic. Rick is very smart, and happens to have a slight crush on Belle, but it is unknown whether he will end up with her or Maggie.

Siblings & Extended Family
When Belle was six, her mother, Christine, had another baby. It was a boy, and he was named Victor, who will attend Central Academy in a couple of years. Belle also has a sister, who was born when she was ten, named Alice, who has her heart set on being a ballerina as well.

Christine has two sisters, named Diane Speckelwood and Jane Matthews. They both married lawyers and Diane had one son and Jane had one daughter. Diane's son's name is Johnathon, and Jane's daughter's name is Toria; Johnathon wants to be a judge, and Toria wants to be a set designer.

Special Interests
When Belle first saw her mother dance the Swan Queen in Swan Lake, she was captivated not by the dancing but by the music. She begged her parents for violin lessons soon after. She loved the soprano string sound and practiced all the time, winning several young artist tournaments. She met Rick at a performance of a play her father was directing, in which Rick's father had the lead.

Belle is also an avid reader, loving music history, and historical fiction the most. She also adores classics such as "1984", "Jane Eyre", and "Pride and Prejudice". She will also spend time writing various violin conciertos, which would lay crumpled and unfinished and crammed into her desk. She prefers to spend her time practicing with her eyes shut.
