Alex is a sweet, funny, intelligent good girl. She's a geek. She never went to a party in high school. She was always studying so she could get a scholarship to her dream school. Harvard. Her poor family can't afford it on their own. She has to work for it, unlike Sean. His family is so rich he could pay for his tuition without a single student loan. He's the traditional player.
    Now halfway through their first semester Sean seeks Alex's help, because she is offering a tutoring service to pay for part of her tuition. She takes one look at Sean and says to herself ," Its going to be hard to get him through his first semester let alone his first year, but hey if he pays me for it might as well give it a shot. Right?"
