Music video
The music video, which revolves around a male high school student, begins with a presumably English teacher handing out a failing grade to the protagonist. Subsequently, he is shown being suspended from his lacrosse team. The video then displays shots of the athlete studying with a fellow student among clips of the athlete's presumed girlfriend and typical friends. The athlete begins to warm up to his student tutor, also male, despite social boundaries and the next paper handed to the protagonist displays a grade of "B+". The video concludes with a beach bonfire party, where the athlete and his student tutor are shown kissing each other in a secluded location.
The video was filmed at Canyon Crest Academy, a high school in San Diego, California.{{Cite web|url=https://issuu.com/pulsemagazine/docs/vol5issue2|title=Pulse Magazine: Vol. 5, Issue 2|website=Issuu|date=January 28, 2010 }}
