On the surface, he was probably every girl's dream. The school's star basketball player, a straight-A student, he was easily part of the biggest cliques anyone could have and wasn't bad looking at all. However, he had a bad habit of looking down on others — being an arrogant , as people closer to him liked to call it — and was rude as heck as they might've added.
