Lucy is the popular girl in school- popular girl, not mean girl. She hears rumors about people calling her things like self-centered and selfish. Because of this, she comes up with the idea to ask a very nerdy off-the-radar kid that nobody knows to prom. He agrees to because his friends convinced him to. Somewhere along the line she falls in love with him but there are two issues: first, Lucy's reputation is on the line and two, he holds no feelings towards Lucy whatsoever because he only sees her as the popular girl who is going out with him for some social upgrading.
