she’s never been loved. her mother left when she was a baby, her dad is an abusive alcoholic, she barely has any real friends, and she loves working three jobs and only has a way of going to school through her scholarship she won. he is a baseball player, a very good one too. he’s sweet, and he’s wealthy. he’s not known for it, and he’s humble about it, but Dean Powell’s money doesn’t define him. they meet through work, a job he didn’t even need but took anyway. she’s been hooking up with a total douchebag on his team, which is why he kinda knows her. she thinks people find her disgusting because of her background, when she really has the sweetest soul, softest character, and a gorgeous person overall. she’s never felt loved or seen before him, which shocks her and kinda scares her in the future.
