There he is the perfect angel of of Priceville High School, Jake Mathews, aka my sisters boyfriend that I have had a crush on since forever. He looks over and looks me right in the eyes. I try to turn around but I can't. I can't do anything but hold his gaze. He smiles and I blush a deep red. I turn around this time and stay that way. But even as I make my eyes stay at the front of the class I can feel his eyes on me.

"Hay I didn't think you would answer!" It was then when I realized who it was. I ran up the stairs and shut the door then locked it.
"Jake you cannot call me. You are dating my sister this is weird. Besides when have you ever had the urge to call me?" I say this quickly, quietly and at the end I was out of breath.
"I know that but I just wanted to let you know that I like you a lot and even though I'm dating your sister I thought you had a right to hear it from me."
"Once again I say you are dating my sister and you know that. Doesn't this feel weird to you at all?" I question hoping that he just gets it in his brain that this, whatever it may be, cannot be happening.
"I understand that but it doesn't change the way I feel about you Katie. I like you and... you know what I can't do this anymore." 'Thank god' I think to myself.' "I'll call you back. I need to talk to your sister." He hangs up before I can protest and I look down hoping that he isn't doing what i think he is about to do.

When a young, invisible girl trips and falls into the arms of the most popular, cute, and sometimes jerky boy in school(aka her sister's boyfriend) she has to decide whether she will take the life he is trying to give her(the popular, noticeable life she has always wanted) or if she just wants to stick with the life she has already(the one where no one talks to her and she is invisible) Will she stay in her sister's shadow or will she finally let herself shine and become the person everyone wants her to be? Finds out in 'Before the Fall.'
Elliot Jensen and Elliot Fintry have a lot in common. They share the same name, the same house, the same school, oh and they hate each other but, as they will quickly learn, there is a fine line between love and hate.
