My name is Cassidy Laison and I'm 16 years old and currently doing my GCSEs! If I had to describe myself in three words I would say, quiet, nerdy and, well, just average I suppose.
  
  If I was to stand out for anything at all it would be my sense of humour, I would say this because I believe I am a comic genius, it's just my friends don't always seem to keep up with my excelled whit.
  
  I have quite a few friends in my school but I must say my very best friend is
  Lizzie Fletcher, mainly because she shares my fabulous sense of humour but also because we are both in our school's technical crew for all of our school productions and performances.
  
  I've never been a person who has a boyfriend and I'm not the most social bean outside of school. So the only time I really meet new people and mingle with people I would otherwise ignore is during the productions.
  This year there is a new addition to the regulars who are always in the cast for every production. His name is Jayson Thomas, he is in the year above me and I hate him! Most of the cast are pleasant enough but don't tend to talk to the crew members unless they've lost a prop or broken a costume. Some of the cast are very friendly and are good friends with us in the crew. Then some of the cast find it funny to make our lives even more stressful by hiding and occasionally braking props, teasing us for being in crew and just generally being a pain in the neck, and Jayson Thomas is one of the little idiots!

The only thing Mia Hope has in common with Jake Carpenter, Artwood High's most popular quarterback, is a love for the coffee served at The Coffee Pod. He wants her to tutor him - and if she can do it without a single cup of coffee, he'll pay her triple. Easy. Nothing could go wrong, right? ***** When Jake learns he's failing English, he knows he needs to pull his grades up or he'll risk being kicked off the football team. He strikes a deal with the elusive Mia - the quiet girl with secrets. If she can't go without a single cup of coffee, she has to tutor him for free. If she can, he'll pay her triple, and with Christmas around the corner, there's nothing Mia needs more than money.
