A/N: This is my first Glee fanfic. I originally posted this back in the summer of last year but deleted it because I didn't have the time for it. Now that I'm out of school for the summer I have more time and this story has been on my mind A LOT. It's not going to be about what I originally intended it to be but I think it's still gonna be good!

Disclaimer: I don't own Glee or the characters sad face.

Enjoy!

[Finn's POV]

It was the first day of his final year in high school. Finn Hudson will be graduating in nine months and it was the last chance for him to wrong his rights and leave his mark in high school. He didn't want anyone or anything to stand in the way of the excitement in store for his final months as a McKinley High School student.

As he was organizing his locker, Finn sees his girlfriend Rachel, approaching him.

"Hey, Rachel." He said hugging her and kissing her on the cheek.

"So, are you ready for the beginning of the end?" she said.

"What?"

"I'm talking about our senior year, Finn."

"Oh, right. I knew that." Rachel rolled her eyes.

"What do you have first period?" she asked.

"Spanish. You?"

"Same!" said an excited Rachel just as the first period warning bell rang. "Walk me to class?"

"I'd love to." Finn said holding out his arm for Rachel to take.

They both get to class and occupy the last few empty desks left at the front of the classroom. The bell rang again as Mr. Schuester the Spanish teacher and coach of the Glee Club, walked in the room. He began to take attendance but was interrupted about half way through. A girl with long dark brown hair, which was pulled back in a messy bun, stormed in the room. She was wearing glasses, jeans and a navy blue Cleveland Indians t-shirt. She looked to be about the same height as Rachel. The girl dropped her books all over the floor because her book bag was open.

"I'm so sorry I'm late." The mystery girl said to Mr. Schuester as she was picking up her belongings.

"I'll let it slide because it's the first day but don't let it happen again." He said. "Can I ask your name?"

"Brooklyn Caldwell. But everyone calls me Brooke" she answered.

Finn was having a quiet conversation with Rachel but when he heard the mystery girl's name, a light bulb went off in his head. He recognized that name from somewhere but couldn't remember why.

"Thanks, Brooke." Mr. Schuester responded. "Why don't you take a seat right over there?" he said pointing to the last empty seat behind Finn.

As Brooke made her way to her desk, she awkwardly avoided making eye contact with Finn yet, all Finn could do was stare her down trying to figure out why she seemed so familiar.

"Ouch!" Finn quietly yelled after Rachel slapped him for starring at Brooke.

"Those eyes belong to me." Rachel said in her jealousy tone.

"Ok sorry." Finn apologized.

It was lunch time at McKinley High. Brooke was sitting at a table by herself. She was on her phone but trying to hide it so she wouldn't get caught. She was taking a drink of water when she noticed Mr. Schuester putting up a paper on the bulletin board.

"I'll call you when I get home from school." She said to the person on the other line and hung up the phone. Brooke gathered her belongings, threw her garbage away and walked up to the bulletin board.

The paper that Mr. Schue had posted said, "Glee Club New Directions Sign-ups." It had room for ten names. Brooke looked around the cafeteria room to make sure no one was looking at her. The coast was clear. She put her name on the first line.

Brooke considered herself to be a pretty good singer but the only time she ever sang was in front of her mirror in her bedroom with the door shut so no one could hear her. She began to leave the cafeteria when she almost literally ran into Finn. He was by himself.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see you there." Brooke said, again avoiding eye contact with Finn.

"It's ok." He said. She started to leave when Finn continued the conversation. "Hey, can I ask you something?"

"I really should be heading to class."

"All I want is two minutes of your time, tops."

"Ok."

"Have we met before?" he asked.

"What do you mean?" Brooke said folding her arms. Her eyes were looking around everywhere but at Finn.

"Your name, your look. It's all too familiar to me." Finn insisted.

"No, I don't think we've met before." She said.

"Are you sure?"

"Positive."

"Ok. That's all I needed to know. Thanks, I guess." Brooke gave him a forced smile and walked off. Finn still had that feeling that he knew her from somewhere but he still couldn't figure it out. He was very determined to solve this mystery.

After football practice, Finn went home and ate the dinner his mother kept warm for him. After he ate, he went to the basement to look through old photo albums. His theory was that if Brooke was a part of his past, there must be some kind of photographic memory. Finn went through several albums and found nothing. It was getting late so Finn decided to give it a rest for the night. He picked up the albums and as he did, a picture fell out. It was a picture of a young Finn Hudson wearing his junior high football uniform. But he wasn't alone in the picture. The young Finn was pictured with a cheerleader with dirty-blonde hair. It was Brooke.

"Of course." Finn said to himself. "I didn't recognize Brooke earlier because she dyed her hair and she has glasses now." Finn heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

"What's going on down here?" Kurt asked. "Talking to our self again are we, Finn?"

"No, just going through some old photo albums."

"Oh! I love looking through photo albums and making fun of how badly everyone dressed when they were younger!" Finn laughed. "Any particular reason why you mightbe going through these this late at night?" Kurt questioned.

"This is what I was looking for." Finn handed Kurt the picture of the young Finn and the young Brooke.

"Aw little Finny! Who's the girl?"

"Her name is Brooke. She and I were next door neighbors our entire lives. We became each other's best friend. We never spent a day apart until she moved halfway through our freshman year."

"I see. And I assume you two were together?"

"Yeah for about a year up until Christmas time freshman year."

"Ah. So why are you bringing her back up?" Kurt asked.

"Because she's back at McKinley." Finn answered. "She has changed a lot since she moved to Cincinnati. When I first saw her today, I didn't remember her but I recognized her name. It had been so long since I had seen her and so much had happened the past two years that I completely erased her out of my memory. And now that she's back I—"

"You want to break up with Rachel to be with your long-time lover." Kurt interrupted.

"No." Finn said abruptly. "What I was going to say was that I don't know what to do now. She won't let me talk to her and she won't even look me in the eyes and I have no idea why."

"Was there something you did that made her not want to speak to you?" Kurt asked Finn.

"No, not that I know of." Finn said. "It was so weird. The day before Christmas break, Brooke came up to me at school and said she was moving and that we had to break-up. At the time, she didn't tell me where she was moving to or why. I later found out that her dad's job got moved to Cincinnati. But it still didn't explain why she broke up with me. I mean, she didn't even give a long-distance relationship a thought."

"There has to be a reason." Kurt said.

"Well, if there is, I have yet to figure it out." Finn mentioned. "I think I've had enough for tonight. I'm heading to bed. Night, Kurt."

"Goodnight, Finn."

The two of them exchanged their "goodnights" while walking back up the stairs and into their rooms for the night.

A/N: Well, isn't this a great opening? Haha so many unknown things right now! We do know that Brooke and Finn had some kind of past together. Wonder what ever happened! Stay tuned for chapter two to find out :) Reviews are welcome please!
