Summary: Five times Rodrick Heffley tried to impress his tutor and the one time she impressed him. Multi-chapter and part of my planned version of The Ugly Truth and Cabin Fever.

Attempt #1

This was time for Rodrick to use his Casanova skills to woo his hot tutor, Bobbi Rivers, off her feet. Bobbi was already hot for him; he just gotta make her realize it.

How?

By writing a totally bangin' love note, because all chicks dug love letters, even tomboyish ones like Bobbi.

He spent his entire home room period writing it. Now he had to get straight to the point because Bobbi wasn't into all that sugary stuff and would most likely laugh in his face for even writing it that way.

He even made the effort to make it to first period on time even though normally he wouldn't give a crap. Lately, due to his tutor, Rodrick started to care slightly about his grades more and more every day. He was doing it without even noticing it. He was actually ready for class for once; that usually never happens. He also tried to write notes instead of throwing paper airplanes at Ben.

When a familiar dark-skinned took her seat two rows from him , he smirked. It was game time.

As the teacher went on with the lesson that would normally have face down on his desk snoozing away, he passed the note to Ben, which Ben then passed it to the kid behind him. His plan was a success. No way it could fail now.

And then it failed.

Rodrick inconveniently forgot that Mr. Thompson was not only the strictest English teacher in his school, but he also lived to give his students detention or demerits for even the tiniest offenses. Rodrick was often the "victim". So his teacher was waiting for something like to brighten up his day by yet another student detention.

"Excuse me, can I have that?" The teacher ordered sternly. Rodrick was cursing in his head. The latest student that had Rodrick's note walked over and gave it to him, trembling. His teacher took one look at his note and sighed, knowing who wrote it just by looking all the spelling and grammatical errors.

"Rodrick Heffley, I would like to see you after class".

And that's how Rodrick ended up with after school detention. For added insult, his corrected all his errors, which left his note almost completely red.

At least he knew not to spell "dear" as "deer".
