Without You, I'm Just Me

Angie Smith never expected much from life. An average yet very striking girl living a quiet town in Illinois, with a jock boyfriend other girls would kill for. A smart girl destined to become a doctor, living the 'american dream'.
Her entire world is turned upside down when she meets the incredibly cute Patrick Stump, lead singer and guitarist for a hot, up and coming band named Fall Out Boy. Angie and Patrick quickly develop a deep friendship, though it becomes clear to Angie that what she feels for Patrick is much more than a mere friendship. But will these feelings she tries so hard to keep inside be revealed? And will Patrick feel the same way?
