Backstory
Sawyer was born to a couple that had barely started their lives together when they had her. It had only been a month into their marriage when her mother got pregnant, but they were both over the moon. After months of preparation and anticipation Sawyer Quinn Andrews was brought into the world at midnight on the dot the morning of December 16, 2000. It had been an uncomplicated birth, to her father and mother's relief, and they were able to take her home a few days after. It wasn't until Sawyer's one month birthday that tragedy struck her just forming family.

Eliza, Sawyer's mother, was hit with a sudden illness. Ewing’s Sarcoma, a type of extremely rare bone cancer especially for her mother's age, was the culprit on this occasion. Eliza was in constant pain that ached literally all the way down to her bone, and that sort of pain made it hard to care for a one month old. It wasn't to say that her mother didn't try because she did; Eliza fought till the end chemo round after chemo round she fought. In the end her fight finally came to end and 24-year-old Eliza Andrews died in November of 2001 just a month before Sawyer's one year birthday.

Ever since her mother's death, Sawyer's father, Oliver, took up the mantle of mother and father and raised her on his own. A heart broken man and his little girl braved the world together from that point on. 15 years of her father trying to keep a job and hopping from place to place had made Sawyer a closed door. It was easier to pick up and move at the drop of a hat when you had no connections to the people around you. That's the way Sawyer and her father lived until he found a steady job in Westbrook and the two of them finally grew some roots. But old habits die hard and Sawyer was still the same closed door she'd always been, but that door was beginning to loosen and it wouldn't be long before it opened up to the world.
