So I'm new to this whole fanfic thing so I just want to say (because I see this in a lot of stories) that I don't own anything other than my computer and my thoughts. PLEASE R&R!

Danny Messer was your typical 16 year old. He was the captain of the baseball team, he was popular, and girls loved him. Well, not all girls. There was this one girl that seemed to catch his eye. Her name was Lindsay Monroe. She moved to the city from Montana about a year ago. She thought his ego was too big because he came up to her on her first day and idiotically acted like a big shot, who could get any girl he wanted.

It went a little something like this:

Danny was talking to his best friend Don Flack at his locker. He just happened to look over and see the most beautiful girl he'd ever laid eyes on. She looked about the same age as him, had short honey colored hair and a slim figure. Even though he was far away, he could tell that she had beautiful brown eyes.

"Yo! Messer! **whistle** Dude what are you looking at?"

"See that girl over there?"

"Yeah. What about her?"

"She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. I'm gonna go talk to her."

He walked down the hall in the direction of the girl. She was putting books into her locker. Since he'd never seen her before, he assumed that she was new here. Being the most popular guy, he knew all the girls at school. Danny is now talking to Lindsay:

"What's cookin' good lookin'?"

No answer.

"I'm Danny Messer a.k.a the captain of the baseball and one of the most popular guys at this school."

"If you're done trying to impress me, I really should get going. I don't care about you being Mr. Popular of whatever."

That was the first time in his life that a girl he talked to wasn't interested in him, which determined him to make her like him.

Lindsay's P.O.V

'What a jerk' she thought to herself. She had just moved into her house yesterday and now she was the object of some player. She had to admit that he was cute. His sandy hair, tan skin, glasses, and muscles that made her want to melt. And she couldn't forget his perfect smile. 'Snap out of it, Monroe!'

She grabbed her books and headed to her first class of the year. Hopefully it would be better than her encounter with that Danny guy.

Her first class was science and luckily 'he' wasn't in it. She was seated next to a friendly girl named Stella. She could tell that they would become friends.

"Hi. I'm Stella Bonasera."

"Lindsay Monroe. I just moved here yesterday."

"Where are 'ya from?"

"Montana"

"You'll get used to the city life."

And with that, class began.

Her next three classes flew by and it was now time for lunch. As she entered the cafeteria, she saw Danny at his table, laughing with his friends and the clingy cheer leaders. Cheer leaders made her wanna vomit. Then she saw Stella get up from her table and she invited her to sit with her and the people at her table.

"Everybody, this is Lindsay. Lindsay, this is Adam, Sheldon, Jess, and my boyfriend, Mac."

"Hey everybody."

"Hey Lindsay."

They all said it at the same time which made her laugh, but they all seemed genuinely pleased to meet her which gave Lindsay a good feeling.
