Author's note: Completely AU. What if everyone on House (only up to season 3) was in high school?

Chapter 1

Allison Cameron looked up at the tall brick building that was to be her new school. Suddenly, she couldn't remember why she'd been so excited for her first day of high school. Sure, her new school, Princeton Plainsboro High, was picture perfect, like something out of a catalog. Fresh faced kids ran around on the perfectly green grass. Everyone looked glamorous, like a school straight out of a movie. Gorgeous girls in miniskirts strode around, tossing their hair and smile-flirting with a group of hot guys, all dressed in varsity jackets. No doubt they were the football players.

Gulping, she turned towards her best friend, Savanna McGrier. "I don't feel so good. Let's go back." She started to turn around and go back the way they came, but Savanna stopped her with a hand on her arm.

"Allie." She laughed. "We're going to be fine."

"Remind me again why we were so excited for this?" Allison said.

"Cuz it's high school!" Savanna spread her arms out in a ta da! It's gonna be the best four years of our lives. Except college, and our weddings, and..." She blabbed on and on as she dragged her inside. Sometimes, having such an optimistic best friend was a real pain in the ass.

Inside, the school looked even more gorgeous than it had outside. Unlike her middle school, which always smelled like week old pizza and gym socks, PPH had the faintest smell of wood polish and spring water. The hallways were brightly lit, thanks to many sky roofs placed in the high ceilings. Normally Allison would've stopped to admire the lobby art, but that was kind of hard, as she was being dragged through the semi crowded halls at a breakneck pace.

"Ow! Savanna, slow down!" Allison struggled to keep up in her new boots. Her usual attire consisted of sneakers, but Savanna had convinced her to "dress nice" for all the "high school hotties." "We have like half an hour before first period starts!"

"I'm not trying to get to class." Savanna said as she practically ran through the halls. Other students turned to stare at her, but the brave Savanna was unfazed.

As Savanna sprinted down the halls, Allison tried to follow, weaving between throngs of students. But the crowds were growing larger and it was getting harder to see.

Suddenly, she tripped over something (maybe her foot) and started to fall headfirst. Great. My first day and my klutz factor is already kicking in. All she could do as she fell was hope that her jeans wouldn't rip.

Miraculously, someone caught her before she hit the floor. She looked up gratefully into the eyes of her savior, ready to mumble a quick thank you and then continue chasing over Savanna. But that was the moment her brain ceased to work and her heart started to pound.

"Whoa there. Careful." Said the hottest guy Allison had ever seen. He had wavy blonde hair and an Australian accent. He had the build of a football player or maybe a wrestler, but instead of a varsity jacket, he wore a light blue button down and khakis. On most guys, it'd look downright geeky but on him it seemed to work.

Allison could only smile stupidly at the boy as he carefully steadied her and then bent over to pick up her fallen bag.

"Here you go." He handed it to her. Allison tried to say something, do something other than stare at this god of perfection. But her voice seemed to be stuck in her throat.

Say something! She ordered herself.

"I…uh…um…" She stuttered. The boy just looked at her with an amused smile.

"Cat got your tongue?" He teased. Suddenly, it registered that a hot guy (who most likely wasn't a freshman, since freshman were immature), was flirting with her.

She summoned up the courage to say something. "I…" But she was cut off by an angry Savanna.

"There you are, Allie!" She stomped over and grabbed her best friend by the hand. "Let's go!

And so Allison was pulled away from the cute guy, as he just stood there, staring in their direction.

"Didn't even catch your name!" He shouted after them, a bemused expression on his adorable face.

"Here it is!" She came to a crashing halt in front of the activites sign up lists, which was posted in front of the office. A huge group of students was already crowded in front of it.

"Do we have to do this now?" Allison whined. All she wanted to do was find her first period, and forget about the embarrassing encounter with that hot guy.

"Yes we have to do this now." Savanna pulled her friend closer, shoving aside a group of rowdy boys, who shot a glare in their direction. "We have to sign up for cheerleading before it's all filled. My sister told me it's the most popular activity here."

"Cheerleading?" Suddenly, Allison felt as though she'd swallowed something sour. She'd heard many horror stories from Zoey, Savanna's older sister who was currently a junior. According to Zoey, cheerleading at PPH was more like a sorority. She'd told them how judgmental the cheerleaders were. If you didn't match their standards, then your life was instantly a living hell. But make them like you and you were golden. It was like a ticket to instant popularity at PPH. All the cheerleaders were perfect, from perfect grades to perfect looks to perfect boyfriends.

"I don't know about this." Allison gulped, feeling nauseated. "I'm not really the peppy type."

"Allie!" Savanna took out a pen from her already overstuffed backpack. "You know that Zoey said! Instant popularity!"

"Still…"

Savanna turned to her with those puppy dog eyes that Allison could never say no to. Never. "Please? For me?"

Allison hesitated. Her head was screaming no, but she couldn't say no to her best friend. "Fine." She groaned. "Sign me up."

"Yay!" Savanna hugged her tightly, then spun around and wrote their names in large letters at the very top. "This is gonna be amazing!"

"Amazing." Allison echoed, her voice drooping. This is gonna be the opposite of amazing.
