Learning My Lesson: He Thought He Was Tutoring His Friend's Little Sister In Economics But They Both Learned A Lesson In Love

by Aleena Ashe

Becca StewartI have one year left of undergrad before I start my law degree. My boyfriend, Michael and I have everything mapped out for our future. It is set in stone. However, if I can’t pass Economics with a B, it all might fall apart. That’s why I spend a couple hours a week in Professor Davison’s office for tutoring. But tonight, it’s not the professor who shows up… it’s Tommy Hayes. As in my brothers’ best friend and my high school crush/nemesis. That Tommy Hayes. OMG, please tell me he is not the new T.A. for Economics. Please, please, please. Of course, he is. Tom HayesI started grad school this fall. I had planned on making a career in the Army but life doesn’t always go the way you want it to. After 3 ½ years in the Middle East, I was medically discharged after a firefight that resulted in some pretty serious wounds. Some visible to the naked eye, others a silent demon I still combat ... It’s time for a new plan and new life.So here I am, taking over as Professor Davison’s T.A. It shouldn’t be too hard, just a bunch of freshmen who need a little help with basic economics. But then I see Becca standing outside the door, waiting. Holy crap, she’s grown up. She’s no longer the skinny 15-year-old who followed me and her brothers around. Okay, so she’s…gorgeous. I can ignore that. She’s still a student and she is still Royce’s and Jeremy’s little sister and that’s a deal breaker.
