he was in danger of not graduating.

Worst of all,

Lee was completely ignoring me.

At least Dad had forgiven me.

He even paid for my driving lessons.

Decided it was about time

I got my license.

Then one day it hit me.

Holy crap! Rule Number Seven!

No matter how mad you are

at your best friend,

you have to forgive them

if they give you ice cream.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Mr. Evans.

Where have you been, Noah?

I had to get away and think.

I'm...

I'm on my way home now.

Good.

Listen, Elle's not here.

I'm actually here to talk to you.

Oh?

I just...

I wanted to apologize.

About everything.

I shouldn't have let it happen.

It was all my fault.

Not Elle's.

But I'm not sorry that it did happen.

Or for the way that I feel

about your daughter.

Oh, Noah.

I can't say I support the two of you.

I can't.

But it's got to be Elle's choice.

I just think that Elle is gonna have

to figure out what's best for Elle.

I understand.

Be together, be together

Shake my soul

Watching the moonlight

You dance in shadow

Fantastic dream of a dream

The night is the moment

of love's illusions

Things are never what they seem

The moon and the stars

are a lover's creation

The only reality's you and me

The touch of your lips

would be such a sensation

You're so sweet my angel

Give it to me all through the night

Be together, be together

Sing the music

Sing along, we sing along

to the moment

Be together, be together

Can you hear it

Shake my soul

Shake my soul

Shake my soul

Hey... so I have been thinking

about our birthday party after prom,

and I was leaning towards

like a costume party, maybe?

Hells yes!

Yes.

Come on, you know me.

Any excuse to cross-dress and I'm in!

Holy...

I know, right?

Dad, are you...?

Come here!

You have fun tonight. Okay, Ellie-bear?

Okay.

Okay.

No way!

This is amazing!

Look!

Oh, come on!

Hey, Yearbook Guy.

Yeah?

These pictures...

really good, dude.

Kind of makes you a little less annoying.

Thanks!

Feels good to be alive

I'm alive and I'm waiting, waiting

I'm alive and I'm waiting for this

Right here right now

There is no other place I wanna be

Right here right now

Watching the world wake up

from history

Right here right now

There's no other place I wanna be

Hello, Los Angeles Country Day Prom!

Now, I'd like to introduce

this year's theme...

Memories.

Photographs which show

images of great moments

from a truly fantastic year.

The moments that stood out

and helped to define

who we are as a class.

It's a final look back on who we were,

at the very moment that we're looking

forward to who we want to become.

So, for everyone out there,

let's make this prom the very best!

Onward to Memory Lane!

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Oooh

Won't you come see about me...

Oh, my!

I'll be alone

Dancing you know it baby...

It's amazing!

This is so cool!

Who did this? It's beautiful!

Don't you forget about me

Don't, don't, don't, don't

Don't you forget about me...

Oh, my God.

Will you stand above me...

What's that all about?

I don't know.

Never love me

Rain keeps falling

Rain keeps falling down...

Guys!

You guys are too much.

Will you recognize me?

Call my name or walk on by

Rain keeps falling

Rain keeps falling down...

Hey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Oooh...

It was at this exact moment

that I finally felt okay.

I wasn't thinking about Noah,

or Lee, or anybody.

I was a small part of something

that mattered.

The kissing booth

meant something to people.

It was gonna be remembered by everybody.

And that made me happy.

Until I saw him.

I'll put us back together

at heart baby

Don't you...

Elle.

Forget about me...

I think you're next up.

As you walk on by

Will you call my name...

I'm sorry, Noah.

I can't.

No, Elle, wait, please!

Elle.

When you walk away...

Why?

Why should I?

Oh will you walk away...

Because I love you.

And standing here,

in front of everyone,

I'm telling you

that I love you.

I'm sorry.

I just...

I can't keep hurting people

that I care about because of you.

Okay? Nobody wants us to be together.

Well, that may be true.

But what do you want?

I want...

I want to go.

Elle.

Hey, Elle! Wait up!

Hey.

Hey.

Listen.

I just came to say I'm sorry about

what happened on the lawn the other day.

And for everything with Elle.

I never should have been lying to you.

But I wanted you to know that...

I was never playing Elle.

And I meant everything

that I said to her tonight.

And not that you care,

but I'm leaving for Boston tomorrow.

I figured I'd try to get settled in

before the fall term. You know?

All right.

Well, I'll see you around, eh?

Oh, and...

Happy birthday, man.

Rachel's getting here in ten minutes.

Is Noah gonna be here tonight?

He told me last night

he was leaving for Harvard today.

He just didn't want to be around here.

But hey, it's for the best.

I mean, I think you did the right thing.

Don't you?

Yeah.

So, what'd you wish for?

No, you know the rules.

Rule Number One...

Only your best friend

gets to know your birthday wishes.

So, how about you?

No wish this year.

Okay.

Hey!

Where you going?

I can't keep doing this.

Doing what?

Elle, what's wrong?

Hey!

You're acting all weird.

I love you.

And I always, always

want to be close to you.

But being my best friend

doesn't give you the right

to tell me who I can love.

It's like with Rachel.

What if I didn't like having her around?

What would you do then?

I guess I'd break up with her.

No, you see?

You shouldn't have to do that just

because I didn't want you to be with her.

No. Come on, Elle.

This isn't the same thing as with Noah

and you know that.

Okay. Listen to me, Lee.

We made up our rules when we were six.

What are you saying?

I'm saying that I love Noah.

And I want him.

And I'm sorry if that hurts you,

and I'm so sorry

that I lied to you before.

I was wrong.

But I'd be lying to you again

if I didn't tell you that I love him

with every bit of my heart.

And if you just can't accept that,

then...

Then maybe you can't be part of my life.

I think you're making a big mistake.

Then that's my decision to make.

You're right.

I love you, Elle,

and I just want you to be happy.

Thank you!

Okay.

I have to find him. Like now.

It's okay. I'll help you find him, okay?

Okay, let me go just make sure

my dad knows where I'm going, okay?

Meet you outside in five,

and you can drive the Stang.

Thank you. I love you so much! Thank you!

Go!

Here we go!

Thank you for doing this, by the way.

No problem.

You know,

I think the hardest part

was just seeing Noah's face at prom.

Gosh, I wish I had just told him then.

But you know what? No matter

how he feels now, I've just gotta find him

and tell him how I feel.

You just did.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, Jesus, woman! Pull over!

Pull over! Pull the car over!

My God! You're trying to kill us!

Oh, my God!

I was not expecting that!

Oh, my God! Like, what?
