Fanon:Claire Bennett

Biography
Claire Bennett was the oldest daughter of Phil and Raina. She was born on June 20 in a city not too far away from Sim Lane. She is a very talented Sim. Straight A+ student, head cheerleader, class president, president of basically every club in school, one of the most popular kids in school, she really is every parent's dream. Ever since she was young, Claire always knew she wanted to lead in something, like being the President! In high school she ran into Matt Roderick, an old preschool friend. At first Claire found him arrogant and often ignored his antics. But when she got to know him better, she became his best (and only) friend. Eventually they started dating. They started out strong but once graduation hit, things changed between them. That summer Matt became ill with a brain tumor, which took months for him to recover from. Claire eventually turned down her scholarship to Yale that fall in order to stay with him. He recovered fully by the end of the year and the whole thing bought them closer than ever. But then they began to drift. Claire doesn't go in much detail about what happened but eventually things just went bad between them and it was over.

Life in The Sims
Nearly two years after the breakup, Claire moved to Sim Lane to take classes at SimU. Months later she went to greet a new neighbor and guess who was there? The reunion was a bit awkward at first but eventually the two acted like the last few years never happened. Their love blossomed again and Matt proposed to Claire. She immediately accepted and not long after that daughters Katherine and Brittany were born less than a year apart! Now they are a happy family with a great house thanks to Matt's inheritance which has a floating garden! Looks like all their problems in the past are all forgotten now.

Or maybe not so much. Turns out that Matt and Audree were having an affair behind her back. Claire becomes upset and attacks Audree. She and Matt are fighting and the girls are scared. Brittany prefers to spend time with the Buchanans now, especially with Carl Jr. Claire feels like she can't spend time with Matt without fighting. At times their fights would get a bit violent. Could that be the reason why Claire's wearing long sleeves lately?

What Lies Ahead...
The future doesn't look so bright for Claire and Matt. She's tired of his antics and the emotional roller coaster he puts her on. But she hopes that things will change for the better between them.
