I'm S.A.D. Socially Awkward Disgrace. 
I once had a friend in Kindergarten but I threw up on her so she left. 
I had a friend in third grade but he was allergic to peanut butter and let's just say he ate lunch with the wrong person. 
Then came middle school. I made a friend who told me her crush and I told him thinking it was the right thing to do but I found out the hard way. 

Now I'm in high school and I've spent three years being that observant loner. People know me as a bad luck charm that ruins people.

Daniel Walker is one of the most popular boys at school. A perfect girlfriend, a great best friend, and is nailing all his football games. Then one day his grades begin to slip and he needs a tutor in order to keep playing on the team.

Dale's life hasn't always been pretty. She hasn't had a lot to be proud of in her childhood. Her father is an angry alcoholic and her mother works so much to keep them afloat that she forgets to take care of Dale and her siblings. Dale doesn't really have many friends due to her lack of social skills and rumors from other kids and let's not start on the bullies. She supports her family by working multiple jobs which includes being the school tutor. 

What happens when she ends up tutoring Daniel Walker? What happens when he learns about her and how will the other kids react? Why couldn't she tutor some other kid?
