History
The news that Jackie McCarthy was going to be having a baby surprised the hell out of a lot of people, the couple for as long as anyone could remember were insisting that they only wanted to have one child, and seeing as how they had a son named Sebastian, the news that she was going to have a second surprised people. While the world looked in, the couple seemed happy to be greeting a second child, in private they despised the idea and had once considered abortion, but seeing as how she was a leading voice in the feminist movement, her credibility would've been destroyed with republicans if she had. So they did the next best thing, once Kyle was born, they put the responsibility of raising him on somebody else, and eventually once he was old enough he was sent to boarding school and promptly forgotten about except during the summer months when he was home, and even then he was simply forgotten. This bugged him more then anything, especially as a child who wanted to be loved much like his brother was, and eventually he realized that going off to school was the best time of his life. At school there was at least people who liked him and wanted him around.
Despite his parents attitudes, he still tried to make them proud of him, and while his mother simply ignored his existence and continued onward with her political agenda, at least his father paid some what attention to him and praised him for his grades. It was what kept him close to his family, his fathers praise and his brothers attempts at trying to get his mother to notice him that made him want to come home during the summer months instead of staying in Boston at the boarding school his mother sent him to. With the need to impress his parents properly in place, Kyle spent more time in the library and studying then he did outside doing anything that would've been considered socializing. His reputation as a geek grew quickly as the years went on, and as it was for geeks and nerds of the time, he was picked on heavily and was found in his dorm room at nights instead of going out with others. He didn't mind it too much, the way other guys talked, what they were out doing didn't sound like a good time, he just enjoyed reading and relaxing and staying in.
As the years went on, and high school came and went, Kyle found himself studying to go to Harvard, he wanted to stay a little close to home seeing as how he and his brother were starting to grow closer, his mother wanted him to go further away, but he did what he wanted. He knew his mother was wanting to run for election herself one day and he knew that she needed him closer by, not only to keep a closer eye on him, but to also make sure he toed the line, and that was how he was able to go to Harvard instead of going to Stanford, clear on the other side of the state. It was a few years later that Jackie McCarthy announced her bid to run for the Massachusetts senator's position in Washington, and it was the fake family attitude that she presented to the state's public that helped her win the majority over and her senateship, it was than that she would give Kyle anything he wanted. After he graduated from Harvard he wanted to go to medical school, having decided on the University of Washington in Seattle, mostly because it was far away from his parents, things had started to get hairier during the election, but he kept the smile on his face long enough for his mother to claim victory. He then left the safety of his home state for his new home out west, but that was what he wanted most of all.
When he made it to the west coast and Seattle, Kyle slowly started to change, while he stayed on course with his schooling and his class work, he started to find somem type of social butterfly buried deep inside of him. He started to yearn for attention and crave contact with people other than just himself and the characters in the books that he constantly buried himself in, he wanted to be with other people, to find a way to be more than just another bug in the library. In the little free time he has had over the last few months since really starting into med school, he has started to become friendly with others, he started to hang out at bars and to get himself immersed in a crowd of people that have accepted him for what he was. He has surprisingly reinvented himself and made him into something other than just another geek that people ask answers from.
