This is my own original plot the music is not mine however I didn't write these songs their respective artists did. Thank you and please be real with me if you like it review if you hate it tell me so. Also the high school is made up as well I don't know any high schools in North Carolina and I'm too lazy to look any up ^.^

It was a warm mid September day in the city of Raleigh, North Carolina and people were sending their kids off to school. School had been in session for two weeks and a routine for each individual person had been set, the teachers already picking out the students they liked and were irritated with.

"Donovan!" a voice yelled. A boy with brown hair and blue eyes turned around. He was about 6 foot with a muscular build and wearing a blue polo and jeans. His friends ran up to him in the parking lot of Freedom High school home of the Lions hi-fiving, fist pounding and giving each other noogies in greeting.

"You guys ready for that new transfer student?" Donovan's friend Darren asked them all as they climbed up the steps to their classroom he had curly blonde hair and brown eyes. He was about the same height as Donovan with a skinnier, lanky build.

"Yea Mr. Beans is going to assign one of us to be their host family." The smaller boy named Jimmy told his friends. Jimmy had red hair and was shorter then the other boys by at least 4 inches. He had all knowing piercing green eyes that made a lot of girls giggle when he looked at them.

"Watch it be a dude or a really ugly chick." A tall boy named Paul, with a dark olive complexion snorted. He was the most muscular in the group with black braids in his hair and had purplish eyes that always echoed his mood.

"I don't know Paul, Mr. Beans said they were from California. You know Laguna beach and shit." Darren laughed punching Paul in the arm as his friends face lightened up.

"Let's go find out then." Donovan mused as he led his friends into the class room. Donovan bumped into someone on his way to his seat.

"Watch is Jockstrap." A tall boy with black wispy hair that fell over his very bright blue eyes. He was Donovan's height but was wearing tight black jeans and a red shirt that said 'Broken Shackles'. This was Jerimino Minalio, Donovan's nightmare.

"You watch it Rusty Shackles." They were about to duke it out when Mr. Beans came into the room.

"Alright sit down Scotts, Minalio sit down in your seats. Donovan bumped past Jer to sit in his seat in the fourth row, dead center. Jer sat next to his friend Tray in the front row and began to whisper furiously.

"We have a little treat for you today. But the reason why this young lady is here is not a pleasant one. Her whole family passed away in a car accident last month and she was orphaned. She chose to live here to be close to some relatives but refuses to live with them for reasons I am not allowed to discuss with you. You will not ask her about any of these things unless she is willing to tell you herself, now is that understood?"

Everyone nodded.

"This young lady is from the Bay Area and is happy to be here please welcome Talya Hanian."

Donovan looked up to see a girl enter the room. She was about 5'5 and had a slim curvy figure. She had tan clear skin with brunette hair that reached the small of her back. Her eyes were chocolate brown and full of innocence that drew the whole class into them. Her teeth were straight and white as she smiled at the class in greeting. She wore white shorts and a blue tube top along with matching blue flats. Her gold pendant glimmered from her neck and all in all she was a very pretty girl. Donovan glanced around the room and new the guys were probably thinking the same thing. The girls were either staring at her in loathing or in approval and Donovan chuckled, this should be interesting.

"Now I will let her introduce herself and then you all will be able to ask her a question. Keep them appropriate Mr. Dupree." Mr. Beans glared at Paul who chuckled and winked at Donovan.

"Well my name is Talya and I'm 17 years old from Walnut Creek, California. A little town north of San Francisco. I'm Middle eastern and a devoted Catholic. I like to sing, dance and write. Basically anything artistic and I like to shop as any girl would and do people's hair and make up." Her voice was strong and musical it was almost comical how big her voice was compared to her height. She turned to Mr. Beans, her hair whipping around in a wave of dark chocolate. "I think that's pretty much it sir. Would you like to choose the people or shall I?"

"Whatever makes you comfortable Miss. Hanian."

"Could you do it sir?" Talya said batting her eyes at him.

"Of course my dear." Donovan used his hand to cover a smirk. Mr. Beans would recruit her to the Bean Sprouts, A club of his most favorite students.

"Does anyone have any questions? Yes Miss Anderson give her your first name and ask your question."

"Hi I'm Stacey and have you ever met anyone famous?"

"Hi Stacey, And I have met princes and prime ministers. Occasionally basketball players and Lil Wayne on one occasion briefly in my hospital room." Talya said blinking rapidly and shaking her head.

"Mr. Baron."

"I'm Jason and do you play any sports?"

"Does baby sitting count?" Everyone laughed. "No. I used to play basketball but I busted my knees."

"Miss Jenson."

"Jenny, and how?"

"I fell in my old school down the stairs and hurt the right one. The left one I was kicked in the face, side and leg until I was unconscious by this one boy in my school because my friend tripped him for calling her a name and he fell into my food. I was laughing and he was the closet thing he was able to hit." Everyone gasped and Talya smiled a dazzling little grin at them. "Don't worry I'm perfectly fine now."

"Miss Johnson?"

"Tina and what music do you like?"

"Anything except most country and classical music."

"Mr. Dupree."

"Paul, but you can call me Mac Daddy sweetheart." He winked all the girls giggled but Talya grinned with a little mischievous twinkle in her eyes.

"No thanks Paul, your question?"

"How many bases have you went around with a guy?" the boys hooted and the girls clicked their tongues in disapproval.

"Mr. Dupree!" Mr. Beans chastised.

"No sir its ok." She giggled and flicked her hair out of her face. "None Paul." She giggled at his expression. "And no I do not swing that way either. Or else I wouldn't find you somewhat cute." She winked.

"Only somewhat?!" Paul spluttered. Talya laughed and turned to Mr. Beans.

"I think I'm done now."

"Wait! One more question. Can you sing this?" Jer held a tiny piece of paper between his pointer and middle finger out to her. Talya took it daintily in her hands and looked at the paper. She looked up and smiled.

"A tune would be nice." Jer hummed the tune as Donovan rolled his eyes and made a gagging motion toward Paul discreetly, who suddenly went into a coughing fit to hide his laughter.

"Come to bed don't make me sleep alone…Couldn't hide the emptiness you let it show! Never wanted it to be so cold, just didn't drink enough to say you love me. I can't hold on to me, wonder what's wrong with me!"

Donovan's eyes snapped back to the front of the room and his jaw dropped. Her voice was amazing and by the judge of everyone's applause, they agreed too.

"Thank you." She blushed and nodded to Mr. Beans.

"You will be sitting next to Mr. Scotts. Mr. Scotts please raise your hand. Donovan raised his hand free hand and pretended to look uninterested as Talya walked past him. She sat down and pulled out a notebook and pen, staring straight at the board.

"Miss Hanian has the right idea, note books out everyone and pull out your copies of the Odyssey. Miss Hanian you can share with Mr. Scotts until you acquire your own." Talya nodded and blushed. She scrambled to scoot her desk closer to Donovan's

'Note to self, new girl hates attention in class.' He thought. He smirked and pulled Talya's desk next to his in one pull. She squealed in surprise drawing causing the whole room to laugh.

"Is everything alright?" Mr. Beans asked.

"Y-yes." Talya said shooting a playful glare at Donovan who shot her a lopsided grin. She stuck her tongue out at him and turned to face the board with a little giggle.

"Now we are at the end of the Odyseey where Odysseus kills all the suitors that littered his castle and were trying to marry his wife. Since Odysseus told his wife to marry before her son grows a beard if he did not return, Why did he murder them all so creuly?" No one opened their mouth and Donovan noticed Talya looking at the front of the room with a thoughtful expression. "Come now people this is an English class! Let's have a disscusion going here. Yes, Miss Hanian."

"He loves her, he was jealous. Yes he told her to remarry but he was telling her this with his head and logic not his heart and passion. He grew angry at the men belittling his memory, son and house that he had no choice but to earn his status back in a very creul and disgusting way. He proclaimed to Greece and the world that his wife is his and his alone and no one but the Gods can take her away from him." Everyone stared at her with renewed amazement. "Um...That's it." She finished lamely.

"Miss Hanian were you in an Honors program back in California?"
"Yes sir, everything except Mathematics I was placed in the advanced classes." She wrinkled her nose and Donovan's heart fluttered. 'Cute...' He thought. "I hate math."

"Well it's nice to know someone is willing to participate!" The bell rang and everyone bolted out oftheir chairs. "Hold it!" Everyone groaned. "Yes yes I know I'm horrible. Miss Hanian's host family is Mr. Scotts family. I do hope your mother enjoys another woman in the house with you and your brothers around Mr. Scotts." Everyone whistled and snickered as Talya made her way threw looking unaffected by the announcements. She stood in front of Donovan and his friends with a bemused expression and placed a hand on her hip.

"I don't think you want me to call you Mr. Scotts do you?" She grinned winking at Paul who was laughing histerically.

"No Donovan is fine." He grinned leading her to their next class Physics.

"So Beans mentioned you have three little brothers?" She said looking up at Donovan. It was cute how she had to look up to him like that.

"Well short stuff, I have an 11 year old brother, a five year old brother and an 11 month old brother. Tino, Bobby and Tommy." He grinned at Talya's change of expression from an irritated look to a happy one as she made a cooing noise at the mention of the two younger ones.

"I bet they're precious." She laughed.

"Hardly, Tommy is attached to me and calls me an embarrassing name since he can't say Donovan. Tino is a cocky little one and Bobby is quiet and cries a lot." Donovan summed up.

"Well I wish I had more brothers, especially older ones. I had a big sister me and her were a year and one month apart exactly, scary enough and since the cut off date we were in the same grade, don't ask me how that works. My little brother was 13 and getting ready for Highschool. He made varsity soccer and was so excited…" She trailed off shaking her head.

"But what does Tommy call you?" She nudged at him. "Come on tell me!"

"Do.." Talya fell into a fit of giggles so bad that she tripped over someones foot and was caught by none other then Jer Minalo.

"Careful angel you wouldn't want to hurt yourself the first day would you?"

"N-no thank you." She stuttered she was obviously shocked by the contact, Jer and her's body were so close that from a distance they looked like a romantic couple in a heated passionate moment.

"Jockstrap you should look after the women around you more." Jer sneered at Donovan, obviously this sentence had more meaning to it, and Donovan stepped forward with a growl building in his chest. Darren and Paul held him back while Jimmy tried to diffuse the situation.

"That's enough Jer, Let's not start this in front of a lady." Jimmy nodded to Talya.

"Yea maybe y'all should leave then." Tray said with a thick southern accent.

"Maybe you should get your PAWS off and let me decide for myself you macho freaks of nature. Goodness too much testosterone!" She pushed herself away from Jer and straightened out her clothes. "I can decide for myself thank you very much." She growled poking Tray in the chest with a scary glare. "Now, I'm going to go with Donovan because, well he seems nicer then you guys and frankly y'all straight trippin especially this piece of Southern hospitality right here." She pointed to Tray. "Now thank you from saving me from falling on my ass, but frankly its just going to happen again in like 20 minutes I'm a klutz and with that we go!" She said dramatically pulling Donovans hand and whipping him in the direction of the Science wing.

"That was amazing doll." Paul roared in laughter mussing up her hair to show his affection. "Hey Jimmy we found someone to be in the group that's shorter then you!"

"Well I'm sorry if I'm average height and you're a walking talking human weed!" Talya said fixing her hair, however a smile still remained on her face. Donovan pulled her to join their lab group and she noticed that besides 3 girls that were glaring at her at the last station, she was the only other girl.

"Why are there only 4 girls in this class?" She asked looking around her hair whipping around with her.

"Those girls only joined the class because we're in it." Paul snorted, then he shot a wink at the girls who all fell into a fit of giggles as if to prove his point. "We're pretty well known around here."

"We'll you are all good looking I'd be stupid not to acknowledge it." She giggled. "But if I may ask what other things do you do that make you so well known?"

"Donovan here is on the basketball and wrestling teams, captain of both this year." Paul said slapping Donovan on the back. Talya's eyes lit up and she flashed him a grin.

"Maybe I can come to your games and matches?"

"Sure." He grinned. "Jimmy here is one of the smartest kids in school, was the star team member on the academic team and a really good poet." Donovan nodded to Jimmy who blushed but grinned.

"I love poetry." She grinned pointing to her blue and black notebook. "I write a bit myself."

"Maybe we can share ideas?" Jimmy said waving his brown notebook in the air. "Darren is the prank king; he's also really wealthy coming from a very well known family. But we all know him for his pranks more then his money." Talya laughed and winked at Darren.

"I hope you don't try to prank me."

"Wouldn't dream of it babe." He smiled. "And Paul here is the ladies man and heart throb, also Donovan's right hand man in basketball and captain of the Football team."

"Wow I feel so insignificant here." She joked but didn't have a chance to say anything because the teacher walked in.

"We have a new student today this young lady in the front. Talya Hanian from California." He nodded. He sniffed and sneered at her. We'll see how she can handle the wonders of Physics like our 'talented' ladies in the back." The girls blushed and huffed at the teacher. "Miss Hanian you shall join them at their station."

"Mr. Scars she's already joined our table." Paul said wrapping her arms around Talya's waist. She smacked his arms away playfully and stood up.

"No sense in arguing." She winked sitting with the girls who glared daggers at her. The lesson preceded with Jimmy and Talya answering all the questions correctly and Mr. Scars glaring at Talya's back as she left the room.

"I may be wrong but Mr. Scars is sexist." She giggled rolling her eyes as they made their way to the lunch room.

"Major sexist. This is why there aren't any girls in our class except those fan girls." Paul said nodding his head to the giggling girls in the front of the line. "I think you made them jealous Tay." He grinned messing up her hair again. She scowled playfully and punched him in the stomach causing him to grunt.

"Just because I'm short doesn't mean you can mess up my hair like I'm a little pet!" She shrieked drawing attention from the line.

"Sure short stuff." He grinned grabbing two burgers, an order of fries and a large drink. Talya grabbed the same thing and sat down across from Paul who gawked at her.

"That's a lot of food for a little girl." Darren grinned flicking a firework at the table where the Water Polo players were sitting that scared them so bad one dropped his pasta bowl on his lap.

"Tell you what Paul. I can finish this before you." She grinned, holding a burger to her lips.

"If I win you give me a little peck." He smiled tearing off the paper.

"If I win you carry my backpack to class." She said pointing to her extremely black and blue star backpack that was on top of the pile of backpacks on the floor.

"Deal." They started and were both eating furiously. Donovan's jaw dropped as he saw the little girl basically inhale the burgers and fries. People were cheering for Paul behind us an Talya chugged her drink and slammed it on the table in less then 20 minutes.

"Done!" She cheered dancing on the table.

"How did you do that!" Paul roared as he swallowed a mouth full of fries.

"I have 13 older guy cousins I have to eat fast when I'm with them if I want a decent meal." She grinned throwing her backpack in his face. "Now walk me to Algebra 2." She giggles linking arms with Darren who had the class with her and practically skipped out with Paul shaking his head and chuckling, throwing the back pack over his back with ease behind them.
