Okay this story takes place probably right in the middle of the movie. I'm not following the complete plot, so it won't continue on like the movie. I do not own any of these characters (although it would be nice)  And no one has the right to copy or print any of the story without my consent. Okay now I've got that out of the way, ENJOY!

Chapter 1

"Allie don't you dare walk away from me!" Noah said harshly. He quickly changed his tone when he saw tears glisten her eyes. "Please stay here with me." He said reaching for her hand.

"And tell me why I should stay here after all the commotion you just created?" Allie snapped back.

Tonight was supposed to be special. Allie thought to herself. She looked around the diner as everyone stared blankly at Noah and her. She looked at Noah's shirt; at the beginning of the night it had been bleach white, now it was stained with the remains of her strawberry milkshake. She didn't know what had gotten into her.

She looked at Noah once more; the expression on his face was priceless. She felt like placing her arms around him but at the same time slapping him across the face. She turned to the expressionless faces of Finn and Sarah. They would be the hottest gossip in town tomorrow she thought.

In truth Noah and Allie had a love like ant other, each as arrogant and bold as the other. Sometimes it was hard to define what exactly held these two together. Many nights Allie had found her self up at night longing for Noah's touch or even his voice. But then there were nights were Allie had stayed up all night crying. Balancing the good through the bad was a hard thing to do. Allie couldn't imagine life without Noah.

"I'm tired of fighting with you Noah. And we can't do this here." She said almost in a whisper. She reached into the booth and grabbed her coat. Sarah and Finn both got up from the booth and headed for the door. And within seconds people returned back to their normal conversations.

"I'm ready to go home now Noah." Allie said heading for the door.

"I thought we, okay fine Allie I'll be there in a second." He said grabbing his coat and the ticket.

He went up to the cash register and paid for the meal. Finn was next to him paying for his own meal. "Noah, I think Sarah and I are just going to go on to the movies." He said sticking his hands in his pockets.

"Yeah Allie and I need to talk." Noah said following Finn out the door of the Diner.

"Are you going to break it off with her?" Finn whispered as they approached the girls.

"I don't know what I'm going to do anymore. All we ever do is fight."

"Okay, well I guess I will see you at work tomorrow Noah."

Noah watched as Sarah and Allie said their goodbyes. He opened the door to his truck and watched Allie slowly get in with him.

"So I take it we're not going to the movies with Finn and Sarah are we?" She asks looking out the window. She folded her hands across her chest.

"I figured we needed to talk, isn't that what you always say Al? We never talk anymore."

"Noah, tonight you're the last person that I want to talk to. Just take me home."

"Woman you confuse me, one minuet you're laughing, the next your crazy."

"Don't call me crazy." She said giving him a look.

"Well I finally got you to look at me." He said with a laugh.

Noah leaned closer to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"What happened tonight Al?" He asks slowly rubbing her shoulder.

"I thought just by putting everything in the back of my mind it would all disappear." She said wiping a tear away from her cheek. She turned away from the window and Noah finally saw the tears streaming down her rosy cheeks.

"What did you put in the back of your mind?" He asks continuing to rub her shoulder.

"This summer, meeting you, what happens when I go back home Noah?" Allie said, her voice slurring.

Noah swiped a hair away from Allies forehead. He pulled her closer and hugged her tightly against him.

"Haven't we talked about this before Al? I don't know what the future holds, but shouldn't we make the most of the time we have now together?"

"But if we continue to get closer together, I couldn't possibly imagine leaving here, without you." She said lifting a hand to his chin. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Don't cry Allie," He said swiping a tear from her cheek with his thumb. "So that's why my shirt is now pink?" He said chuckling. He wanted to make her laugh, but it only made her cry more.

"You just make me so mad sometimes, that's all."

Allie wrapped her arms around Noah and buried her face in his chest.

"Baby, I'm sorry about tonight." He said holding her tightly.

Allie didn't know what to think, there were a million things running around her mind. And it all boiled down to, at the end of the summer Noah would go one way and she would go another. Tonight she had tried to break it off with him, but the words burned in her throat. She didn't want to let him go.
