    Alexander stretched his arms above his head, sat up and swung his legs over the side of the bed. He began to mindlessly move through his morning. His actions were automatic, almost robotic, like the repeated actions of his structured morning had been programmed into his head. He dressed, slipped his belt through the loops, straightened his tie. He stepped into the kitchen and had his daily breakfast of two slices of toast with strawberry jam. Everything was in order.

    As his mind began to wake, Alexander automatically began to mentally review the plan for the day. He would work on his paper until eleven. At approximately 11:05 he would leave to go to the same restaurant he went to for lunch every other day. After he returned he would have another four hours to put the finishing touches on his class paper before he was supposed to tutor. Alexander's mind strayed briefly - he wondered about the student he would be helping today - but he didn't let himself get too distracted, and his thoughts returned to his schedule. When tutoring was over he would go home to fix dinner before his evening class. He had purchased all the ingredients yesterday. Alexander finished his toast and rose as his day begun.

    At 3:45, everything was going swimmingly. He lifted his jacket off of the hook and slipped into it, lifting his bag and heading out the door. It was time to meet Mary West, the girl whose parents had called last week. Alexander hoped she wasn't too daft. Although he always hid his irritation quite effectively, dealing with people on the lower end of the intelligence scale was never something he had much patience for. He drove to her house, and walked up to the front door. His knuckles gave the door two sharp knocks.

    "Hello, Mrs. West, Mr. West," Alexander said, his naturally smooth voice filling the foyer. He shook both of their hands with a strong grasp. They greeted him warmly and led him inside.

    That's when he saw Mary. She was dressed so darkly, and her expression - it was almost intimidating. He raised his eyebrow and smiled at her. "Miss West," Alexander said, reaching out to shake her hand. "Nice to meet you. You can call me Alexander."

    Mary had stumbled home drunk like she did every other night. She would never drive drunk, so when Mary was headed out partying, she made sure to leave the car home, and meet someone who was sobered up at the party. She checked the clock and it read 1:27 AM. Her parents were gonna kill her for being home so late again. But Mary didn't seem to care, she had fun, that's what life was about. Having fun. She headed up and into her bedroom and collapsed into the bed, falling asleep.

    The next morning Mary was woken up by the sound of her younger siblings cries and her parents demanding voices. She trudged her way over to her dresser and pulled out a variation of her daily outfit. She wore tight, black, torn skinny jeans, A black and white band tee shirt, A leather vest, and fingerless, black gloves. The outfit showed off her body in a subtle way. After Mary had gotten dressed she headed into the bathroom in her bedroom. Brushing her teeth with a strong mint flavored toothpaste to hide the alcohol that still lingered on her breath.

    When Mary was finally downstairs and in her family's day she helped out by beggining to cook her younger siblings breakfast, as well as warming a bottle up for the youngest one, she would worry about herself after. Her parents had warned her about a tutor coming today. As if she was actually going to deal with that, she had better things to do. Take care of her siblings, then that night she was heading out to the biggest party of the year. It was held at the football captains house, so anything and everything happened.

    When she heard the knocks Mary headed over to the front door, glancing up at the man who was supposed to be her tutor. Both her arms were crossed over her chest, she didn't shake his hand. "Let's get this over with." She said and shot a glare at her mother and father. Before turning and heading upstairs to their den area.

    Alexander had grown quite accustomed to a rude welcome. He looked at her parents and gave them a reassuring smile and wave combination before following Mary up the stairs. He set his briefcase down on the desk and pulled up an extra chair so they could both sit down. He took a heavy pen from his pocket and spun it around his fingertips.

    "Do you have any particular classes that are bad?" He asked, looking into her dark eyes. Alexander slowly settled into his seat. He could already tell she was going to be a tough egg to crack. "Physics?" He said, with a glimmer of hope. He would love to revisit some basic physics courses. "English?" He added softly, a gentle, sincere expression in his eyes.

    Mary watched Alexander as he sat down in the den. She sat up atop the desk and swung her legs lightly. Taking him in as she pondered over each little detail. She liked to read people, and to figure them out. She knew he probably though she was a dim-witted party girl. "I'm actually very smart, you know." She said pretty bluntly, once again crossing both arms over her chest.

    "I'm intelligent. I understand my classes, I just honestly, don't care." She said and chuckled. "School isn't gonna teach me shit about real life, I've never learnt how to buy a house, do taxes, any real life knowledge. But man, it's great that I know the Pythagorean theorem." She said sarcastically rolling her eyes. "I don't need, nor want, a tutor. I just wanna live my life the way I always have."

    Alexander watched her legs swing. He looked up at her, some of the warmth gone from his face. "Clearly," he muttered. He looked across the room and spun his pen around his fingers. From the instant he had walked in the door, he had been analyzing every snippet of information he could gather. Her parents seemed nice. Her house was decent enough. The children he could hear running around downstairs had whined when Mary had stopped playing with them.

    He stood, walking across the room, intrigued by a purple book on the bookshelf. But alas, it was only a cookbook. Alexander turned to face Mary. He collected himself before he spoke again. "Your parents called me," he said with a small sigh. He looked into her eyes as he spoke again. "They think you need me."

    Mary watched Alexander as he walked away. She made her way to the window, reaching up above it and pulling down a package of hidden cigarettes. She slipped one out of the package and a lighter from her small pocket. She lit the cigarette and put it to her lips, taking a long drag from it. "I don't need you. I'm fine on my own,they just don't like my grades." She muttered.

    Mary went back to the desk and sat. "So why don't we just sit here for a half an hour and do nothing," she suggested, taking off the leather vest. Her shirt had been cut up the sides then tied back together. It showed off her tanned and toned body. As well as the lacey white bra she wore beneath it. Specifically for the party she was going to tonight.

    "So prove it to them," Alexander said with a simple shrug. "You must realize they're paying for my time. Bring your grades up and I won't even have to come back," he said.

    His face soured as she began to smoke. Alexander clicked his tongue. "If you want to suck poisons into your mouth on your own time, feel free. However," he said with a small sigh, "it really isn't fair to subject me to the same toxins without my approval, now is it?" As he returned to the desk where she sat, his gentle gaze became a sharp stare. He stood in front of the desk and she sat behind it. He watched with light amusement as she took off her vest. Was she trying to appeal to him? He admitted to himself that she was attractive.

    Alexander touched his fingertips to the desk lightly. "Sounds like a marvelous plan. I waste thirty minutes of my day, and you waste thirty minutes of your parents' money." He averted his eyes to the peeling paint on the wall. He turned his back to Mary slowly, sitting on the edge of the desk and observing the room. "If you take my advice," he said slowly, "and manage to use your...incredible sums of intelligence...to bring your grades up to a B average without my assistance," Alexander paused, shrugging. "Then you won't have a tutor. But your parents made it quite clear that I was to return twice a week until you do achieve acceptable grades."

    Mary snickered and shrugged her shoulders. "You're in my house, I don't want you here. Why should I have to change my ways for you?" She asked snidely, inhaling another long drag of the cigarette before finishing it off and snubbing the end out. Mary then tossed the butt into a small trash can besides the desk. Looking over Alexander again.

    "I could easily bring my grades up. If I cared. But I don't." She said and shrugged her shoulders. "I'll convince them to not bring you back. I don't need the help and I don't see why they care so much." She muttered and walked back to the window, looking out at the neighborhood below. "I haven't dropped out, or come home pregnant. I think that's something." She said and turned to see his reaction, arms crossed over her chest again.

    "Oh, I didn't tell you to stop smoking. Only commented that doing so was quite rude," Alexander said in regards to her cigarette. He hated the smell of smoke.

    "Something indeed." Alexander said with a smirk. "Wouldn't it feel nice to be proud of yourself for something besides the fact that you've managed to not get yourself knocked up?" He was looking at the ground in front of him, his hands in his pockets as he leaned back on the desk. "I actually appreciate your stubbornness. I just hope you are perceptive enough to see past your youth. One day, your parents will be gone, and you'll have to support yourself," he said softly. "The little ones downstairs might not even be out of high school by the time you lose your parents, there's quite an age gap between you and them," he added, scuffing his shoe against the carpet.

    Alexander turned towards the window, his deep eyes bearing into her. "Would you want to see them in the foster system simply because you chose not to work hard?" He took a step towards her, his eyes never leaving hers. "You could make your parents proud of their little girl. The children will have a role model, something to strive to be like. You'll have a promising future," he added. "But, I don't think you'll listen to me. It's unfortunate, but I don't think you'll take these words to heart."

    "Truth is, I can't really do anything for you, unless you want it yourself," he said, rolling his shoulders as he turned away from her again. "But I cannot fathom a reason why you wouldn't want it. I completely don't understand that you could just shun your future," he paused and looked back at her, "and shun your family."

    Alexander drew his hands from his pockets and straightened his tie.

    The moment Alexander began to talk about her siblings Mary was glaring at him. If looks could kill he would have died right then and there. Her glare was cold and merciless, as if she was trying to bore into his soul. Mary knew she could take care of her siblings, she wasn't gonna let some smart ass tell her differently. "You think you're so high and mighty p, huh? Intelligence isn't everything in life. I hope you know that." She snarled.

    "Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg. All dropped out. They are and were some of the richest people." She said and crossed her arms over her chest again. Sauntering up to Alexander as she looked up at him. "Don't say shit about my future because you don't know where I'm going."

    Mary grabbed his tie and pulled on it so that Axleander's face was at the same level hers was. "Don't tell me I don't work hard because I couldn't care less about a stupid grade on a project. Not everything is black and white. So, Mr. Preppy I Know Everything, do yourself a favor and get the hell out of my house if you're going to insult me like that again." She said coldly,pushing him back.

    The comment had gotten to Mary, her siblings meant everything to her. She would have done anything for them. Even the thought of losing them worried her, she dint have anything without the kids. She turned her back to Alexander and stood in the window again. Sighing and looking out, thinking about everything he had said to her. She wasn't going to lose them. But she wasn't going to end her fast paced life either.

    When she grabbed his tie, Alexander clenched his jaw and didn't blink. Inches from her face, he saw a pain in her eyes he hadn't recognized before. She turned away from him again and he released his breath. He fixed his tie and jacket, running his hand through his hair. His brain pounded.

    Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg - sure, go ahead, throw their names at me. Three names. Three names out of billions of people on this planet and you have the audacity to believe you could make it like they did? Bill Gates didn't drop out because he was partying too hard. And in my opinion, sweetheart, it's very obvious that you don't work hard. You said it yourself. You "just don't care". The world doesn't revolve around you. If you're so fucking smart, then prove it.

    Alexander closed his eyes and bit his tongue. The apology caught in his throat the first time he tried to say it, but the second time he was able to suppress his negativity. "I'm sorry, Mary." He strolled over to the desk and picked up his heavy pen, returning it to the pocket where it belonged. "It was not my intention to cross a line - simply to make you think. I want you to see," Alexander paused. He looked over to Mary. "I want you to see how much this impacts not only your future - but the people who love you."

    Mary didn't acknowledge that he apologized. Hell, she didn't even acknowledge that he was still there in the room with her. Mary just stood staring out the window, pondering over every little thought that entered her brain as time trudged on. It felt like an eternity before she finally took in a sharp breath and turned about to face Alexander again.

    "Let's make a deal." She said, a small yet mischievous smirk sliding across her lips. "I get three out of my four classes up to an A average." She paused and sauntered over to him, once again grabbing his tie. However this time she didn't pull him to her, she played with it flirtatiously. "You come to a party with me, Mr. Preppy." She said and grinned up at him.

    Mary knew the hand she had, and knew exactly how to deal her cards. It would be fun to prove him wrong. As well as seeing this type of person at a party. He would end up a laughing stock. She knew he was smart, but he gave her a cocky vibe, so she was sure he would wanna prove her wrong.

    The small sleeve of Mary's shirt slid down her arm when she looked up at A
    Alexander once more. "And if you win, I'll give you whatever you want." She purred seductively. Turning away again, and walking back to the window. She purposely swayed her hips in a flirtatious way.

    Alexander swallowed, watching her play with his tie. He listened to her, curious as to what she thought would come of this. The party scene - he didn't get it. He was always able to play a quite charismatic character, but he never saw the appeal. He fixed her sleeve when it slipped.

    "Win what? There's no contest," he said, unable to take his eyes off of her body as she walked away from him. "Furthermore," he continued, his throat rumbling, "As wonderful as a party sounds, I don't think it would be all that amusing to hang around with a bunch of idiotic - excuse me, excellent, bright, young high school kids." His tone was heavily laced with sarcasm. "Thank you for the invite, of course. It would be ironic that I'd be the only legal drinker and also likely the only one not drinking. Wait, do you need booze? Is that it?" He smirked.

    Alexander slid up his sleeve to check his watch, trying his best to erase the image of her slender swaying body from his head. He couldn't be thinking about her that way - he wouldn't let her play with him like that. It was nearly time for him to leave. He walked up to the window and squinted his eyes, looking outside. "What's so interesting out here anyways?" He said with a small smile, raising his eyebrow at her.

    Mary chuckled when he had fixed her sleeve, she already knew she had him wrapped around her finger at this point. She just needed a little bit more edge.

    "If there's no contest make the bet." She urged and glanced up at Alexander. "Parties are fun, if you don't think so, you clearly haven't been to a good one." Mary said and snickered at the thought of him at a party. "I don't need someone to get me booze. Do you know how easy it is to pass for 21 with this body? Or how easy it is to get it from sleazy liquor store salesmen?" She asked rhetorically, shrugging her shoulders again.

    "It's a lot more interesting than you." She remarked and grinned slightly at her comment. Marry allowed herself to look back up at him, taking in his features. She did think he was handsome. But he was pushing her buttons, so she wouldn't reveal her thoughts to him. Mary looked back out the windo and watched cars pass by slowly. Then headed to the door as she heard the clock ring, yanking it open and motioning to it. "Time to leave, Mr. I'm Better Than Everyone, so get going. Think about the deal. And think about what you want." She smirked and winked sauntering out of the room flirtatiously once more.

    Alexander rolled his eyes. She would definitely get carded, no matter how old she thought she looked. Talking down a salesman was only a little more believable. "We have two different ideas of what 'interesting' is, little girl." He clenched his jaw for a second, irritated with himself for letting 'little girl' slip from his lips. She was getting to him, and he had to stop letting that happen immediately.

    He watched with mild amusement when she yanked open the clock. "On my way," He muttered, with a sarcastic salute. He proceeded to gather his things and head downstairs. Her parents stopped him.

    "How did things go?" Her mother asked, nervously. Based off of the tone of her mother's inquiry, Alexander assumed he wasn't the first tutor that Mary had given a hard time.
    "Yes, please. Is there anything we can do to help you?" Her father added. Alexander smiled politely and shook his head. It was incredible how much her parents cared about her, and how little she cared about their dreams for her.
    "You've raised a very assertive daughter," Alexander said. "She's quite stubborn," he added. Both of her parents looked at him with worried expressions. Alexander nodded gently. "It's good that she stands up for herself. I'll try my best to help her raise her grades."
    "Thank you," Mr. West said with a polite smile as he retreated into the other room.
    "I know how she is," Mrs. West said. "I know she didn't listen to you," she said with a soft sigh. "But you're a very sweet boy, I think you can actually - I don't know. I just want what's best for my girl."
    "Of course," Alexander said with a gentle nod, "All parents do." Mrs. West smiled in agreement. Alexander continued, "Am I coming again at the same time tomorrow?"
    "Oh yes, yes. I nearly forgot. My husband and I normally work at this time of day, so we won't be here, I was wondering if you could come at a later time?"
    "No, I'm sorry, I have a class at night for most days out of-" Alexander began, only to be interrupted.
    "It's fine, it's fine. I'm off to work right now, sorry, I'm in a rush," Mrs. West explained. She dolled out some cash from her purse and handed it to Alexander. "This is what we had agreed upon. And tomorrow, just come again at the same time. You're a good boy."
    "Let me get out of your hair, Mrs. West, so you can leave for work. I'll be here tomorrow."
    They said goodbye and both proceeded to leave the house.

    When Alexander got home, he began the dinner that he had been looking forward to cooking. As he flipped the meat on the skillet patiently, he couldn't help but think about Mary. Her outfit, she was showing so much skin. The way she moves is just - no. I can't let myself be anything besides professional. And what was this ridiculous idea of going to a party? I don't have time to kill brain cells like she does. Alexander moved the chicken to the plate and stirred up the sauce, pouring it over the plate. He added spices almost mindlessly. But she said she would get her grades up. She said she would give me anything I wanted... Alexander squeezed his eyes shut.

    Maybe he would play her little game. He knew she underestimated him.

    Alexander ate, attended his class, and upon returning he stripped down for a shower. Running his hands through his hair, he closed his eyes and wondered if he could actually find himself going to a dumb high school party. He stepped out of the shower, dried himself, and fell into bed. He wondered if he would waste precious time around adolescents just to prove a point. Just to help her out, in the long run. He sighed softly as his cheek sank into the cool pillow.

    The next day, Alexander woke and performed his routine. Soon, it would be time to go to Mary's again.

    Mary watched as Alexanderade his way downstairs towards her parents. She didn't bother going to see them, she didn't feel like answering the questions. Instead Mary made her way to the small playroom where her younger siblings were. There were a few excited squeals and screams that came from them when she returned. The oldest of the four was only 5, but Mary still considered her a baby.

    "Sissy, are you okay?" The child asked, noticing the pondering look that had been plastered on Mary's face since she had left the room with Alexander.
    "Oh, yeah, I'm fine." She murmured and hugged her younger sister to reassure her. "I'm alright. Just thinking is all, Anna." She said and stood up. Mary made her way over to the crib and picked up baby Benjamin, bringing him over to the changing table, then grabbing a bottle and feeding him as she watched over the others.

    After Mary's parents left she was alone, which she enjoyed. Nothing made her happy like caring for the younger ones. After they had calmed down a bit, and she had fed Benjamin, Mary headed into the kitchen looking for something to make for the other three. She found a few boxes of spongebob shapes Mac and cheese. This would do, it was easy and they loved it. Mary boiled the water, cooked the pasta, and finally put it all together. Before she called the kids in she set the table and got the high chair for Benjamin, and out some puffs on his tray. Mary called the three kids in and got Ben, placing him in the chair.

    It was a little while after dinner when it was bed time. The kids listened to Mary about bedtime much better than her parents. She made sure they were all sound asleep before getting ready for the party. Mary changed her outfit to something even skimpier, but sexier, for it. The less clothes the less chance of ruining them with drugs or alcohol. She did her make up as she usually had done. Finally she grabbed her wallet with the fake ID, and a few joints hidden inside.

    Mary snuck out the back window of her house just a few minutes before her parents got home. She never drove to parties, always found some guy who was sober enough to bring her home. She arrived in a few minutes and headed into the vast basement. Loud music was playing, drunk couples were making out, or more, already in random spots, there was a beer cooler over in the corner which just kept getting refilled, some kids were doing shots at the bar that was set up, and in the middle there were kids doing lines of coke. That was what shocked Mary, she'd never seen coke at a party, pot or ecstasy yes, but not coke. She headed over and found the host, he was sober enough to talk. "Coke? Where the hell did you get coke?" She asked and looked up at him.
    "That's for me to know, sweetheart." He said, hiding the tinge of slurring in his voice. Mark slid his arm around her waist, pulling Mary against him. "Let's do a line." He encouraged.
    Mary sighed heavily but agreed to it. What could go wrong? She thought before heading over there with him.

    When Mary finally came to after the line she was in bed with a guy who was trying to take her pants off. Mary glared down at him. She usually didn't deny sex, but for some reason her mind went to Alexander and she pushed the guy away. "Get the hell away from me." She snarled at him, getting up and grabbing her best before storming out of the bedroom. She didn't want to deal with the rest of these people, so Mary walked home. She immediately headed up into her bedroom and fell asleep. Mary was out like a light

    Before her parents went to work her mother had woken her up so that she would be able to take care of the kids. Mary changed clothes, dressing in an outfit similar to the day before, just much more revealing. She went downstairs and was playing with, and taking care of the kids as she waited for Alexander.

    Alexander pulled up, a little surprised at first because of the empty driveway. Yesterday he had parked on the street. Then he remembered her parents were away at work. Out of courtesy, he parked in the same spot he had the day before, in case they returned home before he was to leave. He stepped lightly out of the car and picked up his bag, carrying it to the front door.

    He realized he was excited to see her as he stepped onto her porch. He erased that feeling from his mind. He was here to raise her grades, and help her achieve the best that she could achieve. Her parents were trusting him with this goal. Furthermore, it isn't even legal to...no, stop. Don't even think that far. Alexander lifted his hand and gave the door two sharp knocks.

    Mary knew he was here the second she heard the car pull up. She had begun to put all the kids down for their naps. It would be easier for the two of them if they were down. Once the four were safe and sound asleep Mary looked down at herself to make sure she looked good, she didn't know why, but she wanted to look good for Alexander.

    Mary straightened out her outfit and looked about as sexy as she could before she moved to the door and opened it. A slightly delighted smirk on her lips as she looked up at him. "I put the four kids down for their naps so that they won't bother us." She purred and shut the door behind him. Mary looked him up and down, biting her bottom lip as she did. He was definitely an attractive man. She wouldn't mind getting with him.

    Alexander nodded as she let him inside. He pretended not to hear the tone of her voice, and pretended not to enjoy the way she was dressed. "That makes it sound like we'll actually be getting something done today," he said optimistically. He narrowed his eyes disapprovingly as she looked him over, even though it made his heart race. He tightened his jaw as she bit her lip, his eyes searching her face. He tilted his head with curiosity when he noticed a bit of dried blood around her nose.

    He couldn't have known it was from the line she did last night. Alexander moved past her to take a tissue from the little table in the foyer. "You must have had a nosebleed," he said gently. He stepped in front of her, looking into her eyes. He almost wiped it away himself, but instead handed her the tissue and glanced upstairs.

    She was undeniably beautiful, he thought to himself. "Same place as yesterday?" He inquired softly, pointing up the stairs.
