The Serial Effect. Short for the serial position effect, it's the tendency to remember things in the beginning, and the end, while everything in the middle is forgotten. Like the story. It begins when the girl meets the guy, and ends with either the break-up or make-up. But what about everything else? What about the middle? What about the quiet talks, stolen moments, the pranks, the friends, the bumps in the road, the small moments that make the story theirs. Jassilinn Flinn, or Jas, is starting senior year as nothing more than a shadow. Only intent is to survive until she can graduate and start her life for real. Until [insert semi-cliché meeting here], and she rapidly becomes caught trying to handle a shifting social chain, overzealous girls, family, school, future, and everything that comes with high school. This isn't a story about how the guy gets the girl and they frolic off into the sunset. It's about the guy who finds the strength to let someone in, the girl who never had the courage to take a chance, and what happens when the middle story becomes more important than either the beginning, or the end. (A/N) The Serial Position Effect is a real psychological term, the definition here is loosely translated, but the idea is the same. WARNING, I have no updating schedule because I have lots of school to deal with, along with a part time job, and a variety of other thing. I try to update as often as I can, but sometimes there's not much I can do... Sorry about that. thank you Thank You THANK YOU! SO SO SO SO SO MUCH Xoxo_keana for the awesome Awesome AWESOME new cover :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Seriously, she's awesome! :D

You know the old saying fake it til you make it? Well my best friend took that a little too seriously. Caitlyn came up with a crazy scheme to help me finally get the guy I had been crushing on for three years. Her plan was a little unorthodox to say the least. She decided that her and her boyfriend Colton should stage a break up so I could pretend to date him for a month. He was the quarterback of the football team and the most popular guy in school. She said dating him would make the guys at our school finally stop seeing me as a shy, undateable nerd. She said I would have my pick of any guy after that, including my crush Takashi. It was the most ridiculous plan I had ever heard of. There was no way anyone would actually believe me and Colton were dating. He was the quarterback of the football team. It would have probably been easier to convince the whole school that I was dating the President. The problem was, I knew she was right. It was probably the only way I could get Takashi (my crush) to see me as girlfriend material and I wanted that more than anything in the world. Plus, Caitlyn's crazy schemes usually worked and I was desperate, so I reluctantly agreed to it. The weirdest part of the whole thing was, her boyfriend Colton used to be my best friend before him and her started dating and she gradually took his place as my best friend. That was four years ago and him and I weren't near as close as we used to be. Now he was just my best friend's boyfriend. CONTENT WARNING: Very mature themes & sexual content - 18+ only!
