[INNER THOUGHTS]
Overview:
Belle is always the life of the party, in a distant way. People see her as a fun-loving girl, and yet nothing more, because Belle doesn't let people get close enough to get a better impression.
Belle keeps to herself not because of others, but because of a rare "curse" she was born with. She has the gift of foresight, but it manifested very strangely within her- she can only see someone's future if she touches them with her bare hands, and she can't control what she sees. This scares her, because when she sees horrible things, she can't stop them- and therefore she must watch people suffer, knowing that she knew about it beforehand and couldn't do anything. Because of this, Belle stays withdrawn from people around her, not wanting to ruin their lives or drive herself mad with what might have been. One strange thing about it is that her gift only works on humans- something she isn't aware of.

[HISTORY]
Belle resulted in a one night stand, which is why she has no idea who- or what- her father is. Belle's mother died when she was young, leaving Belle to be shunted from orphanage to orphanage, all the while trying to come to terms with her bizarre "gift." Scared of what she was able to see when she touched others, Belle stopped associating with other humans, period. She didn't talk to them, she didn't touch them. Her guardians considered placing her in a mental institution, but Dumbledore stepped in, having earmarked the young seer for Hogwarts when she came of age. He took her to another seer, who tried to help Belle with her powers, with only some effect. No one could seem to understand why she could only see things when she touched others, rather than all the time, or with the use of tools (something Belle can't do.) It was her mentor that came up with the idea of wearing gloves, and it was thusly armed that Belle attended Hogwarts.
Old habits die hard, however, and Belle still didn't welcome touching other people. She made friends with one boy in her house, and after many protests, she finally agreed to tell him his future. She touched his hand, and she saw that a month from that night, his mother would be proclaimed dead at the hands of what is now known of as the death eaters. The boy didn't believe her until it came true, and angry, he blamed Belle- claiming it was all her fault, that she had somehow made it happen. Belle withdrew into herself again, and stayed away from the other students around her.
She graduated and instead of going into the auror business (like she dreamed,) Belle drifted around, looking for some place that seemed like home. She still hasn't quite found it, but her love of sweets landed her a job at Honeydukes, where she spends her time when she's not at home.
