AN: I'm back with my new story! :) I hope you enjoy the first chapter.

Summary: A/U High school Fic. 16 year old Callie is the most popular girl in school. She's a hardcore bad-ass chick and is also the captain of the basketball team. To her friends and family, she seems like any other regular girl but Callie is hiding a dark secret. When a perky blonde moves into town and meets Callie, she immediately sees the pain in Callie's eyes. Can she get past Callie's walls and find out what's wrong before it's too late?

Disclaimer:I don't own any of the characters or places in this story. This is strictly just for fun.

Chapter 1: Back to School

Callie walked down the hallway and greeted the people she passed. It was the first day back to school. Today she was starting her junior year of high school. Most teenagers would be reluctant to go back to school but not Callie. She was actually relieved to be back at school. She had shown up an hour earlier than school originally started in order to check out her classes. Surprisingly, there were already a lot of other students there. As she headed to check out her first class of the day, she was stopped by a voice shouting her name.

"Hey Callie!"

It was her best friends Mark and Addison. She waited until they were closer before she spoke.

"Hey guys! What's up? I'm surprised you are already here. Both of you aren't usually the type to show up to school one hour earlier than you need to be. If anything, you're both the type to show up an hour later than you are supposed to."

"Aww Cal, I'm offended!" Mark said as he held his hand to his heart, "We just wanted to spend some time with our best friend before school started but when we called your house, your mom told us you left already."

"Yeah, what's up with that? You live in a freaking mansion. If I were you I would never want to leave my house." Addison told her friend.

"I just felt like checking out my classes before school started." Callie shrugged her shoulders as if it were no big deal.

"Uh oh." Mark said as he looked at someone behind Callie, "Here comes the Wicked Witch."

Callie rolled her eyes at Mark, immediately knowing who he was talking about. She looked over her shoulder to see her girlfriend walking their way.

"Mark, be nice. Just because she didn't want to go out with you when you first met, doesn't make her a bad person. It just makes her a good judge of character." Addison said as she elbowed him in the ribs.

"Ow! Was it really necessary to hit me? And as for that good judge of character remark, I'm offended!"

"You're always offended Mark." Callie told him. "Now both of you go away."

"Fine, fine. We're leaving."

Callie watched her two best friends walk away. How she ever managed to become friends with them, she'll never know. When she turned back around, she found Erica standing in front of her.

Erica Hahn had moved to Seattle in the middle of freshman year of high school. She was in the same grade as Callie. She and Callie had quickly become friends and it later turned into more. Erica was not well liked. The only people who truly liked her were Callie and Addison. For that reason, Erica didn't really fit into Callie's group of friends, or as the students who weren't in that group called it, the "In Crowd", but they tolerated her for Callie's sake. Well except for Mark who took any chance to make her life a living hell.

"Hey Cal." Erica greeted Callie as she stopped in front of her and gave her a kiss.

"Hey Erica. What are you doing here so early?"

"Just wanted to check out my classes before school started."

"Same here. Let me see your schedule, maybe we'll have some classes together."

Erica handed over her schedule and Callie quickly scanned it.

"Looks like the only classes we have together are third period AP Biology and then lunch after that but that doesn't really count because everyone has lunch together."

"Well that sucks. Anyway, I'm going to go check out my classes. I guess I'll see you during Biology. Bye Cal."

Callie watched her girlfriend walk away then headed into her English class to meet the teacher and check out the classroom. After that she headed to her second period class. As she was walking out, she bumped into the last person (or at least one of the last people) she wanted to see.

"George, hi. How have you been?" Callie asked him as she forced out a smile.

George O'Malley was her ex-boyfriend. He was a year younger than Callie. They started dating when Callie was in the eight grade and George was in seventh grade. Callie's friends couldn't really see what she saw in George. Now looking back, Callie couldn't see what she saw in him either. When Callie entered ninth grade, it put a strain on her and George's relationship seeing as they had to attend two different schools. Apparently the strain was too much for George and he ended up cheating on Callie with his best friend Isobel Stevens, or as she's more commonly called, Izzie. The worst part about it was she found out about it through Mark, who found out from Derek, who found out from Meredith, who found out from Izzie. Then, when Callie confronted George about it, he denied it. Of course Callie didn't believe him and broke up with him then and there.

A few weeks later she went to a party where she saw George making out with Izzie. When he spotted Callie, he drunkenly walked over to her and started yelling (although he didn't really know he was yelling because he was so drunk) that she was right, he had cheated on her with Izzie. Needless to say, Callie was humiliated. The weeks that followed were the worst for Callie because of all the whispering and staring.

Then she met Erica at the start of her second semester of freshman year and they became friends. Erica helped her move on and get her mind off of George by convincing her to try out for the basketball team as a distraction. To Callie's surprise she made the team and quickly became the star player. Soon, her team was undefeated and the students no longer treated Callie like a joke. Ever since that night at the party, Callie managed to avoid George, until now.

"I've uhm been good Callie. How about you?"

"Fine. I uhm need to go. See you later."

Callie quickly walked away before George could say anything else and headed to check out her next class. By the time it was 7:45, Callie had seen all her classes with the exception of her last period Spanish class. She's had the same Spanish teacher for the last two years and this year wasn't any different so she decided to skip going to check out her Spanish class and just go straight back to her English class.

She pushed her way through the crowd of students. There was now so many students standing around in the hallway, she could barely move past them. One of her teammates called her over and she stopped to talk to her. She still had ten minutes to get to class so she was in no hurry.

Out of the corner of her eye, Callie saw a blonde girl hurrying through the crowd with her face looking down at her schedule and not looking where she was going. Before Callie could warn her, the blonde tripped over a backpack that was on the floor. Callie quickly shot out her arms and caught her before the blonde could hit the floor. The moment her arms came into contact with the blonde, she felt like someone had set her whole body on fire. She was about to ask the blonde if she was okay but the words died in her mouth as she looked down at the blonde's face. Callie could feel the students' eyes on them and hear their whispering but she didn't care. She ignored them and just looked down at the bluest eyes she had ever seen as they looked back up at her.

"Hi." The blonde said.

AN: First of all, I should let you know that you shouldn't expect regular updates. School is my focus right now but I will write when I can. I plan to update at least once every 2 weeks but plans can change.
