High school tuition.

"I can tutor you... if you want?" Sapphire blurted out, much to Pearl's dismay. Ruby sat up. "R-really...?" She was surprised again. Why was she helping such a loser? Ruby quickly hugged the other girl, head on her shoulder. Sapphire was shocked, but returned the embrace. Ruby was smiling now, a single tear left on her cheek. What's better than getting tutored by your crush? "Thank you." She mumbled, which made Sapphire gain a little smile to her face.
