Landon Carter

Our love is like the wind you can't see it but you can feel it!

Landon Carter
[voiceover]

Jamie saved my life. She taught me everything. About life, hope and the long journey ahead. I'll always miss her. But our love is like the wind. I can't see it, but I can feel it.

Landon Carter
[Reading from Jamie's mother book]

"Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. There are three things that last faith, hope and love, and love is the greatest of these."

Landon Carter

Jamie has faith in me. She makes me want to be different, better.

Landon Carter
[to Jamie]

Maybe you're just too scared that someone might actually want to be with you.

Landon Carter
[to Jamie]

No, no, you know the real reason why you're scared? It's cause you wanna be with me too.

Talk to me man.

Landon

About what?

Eric

About you, about Jamie.

Landon

What's there to talk about? She's the best person I've ever known.

I'm sick.

Landon

I'll take you home. You'll be be...

No. Landon! I'm sick. I have Leukemia.

Landon

No. You're 18. You - you're perfect.

No. I found out two years ago and I've stopped responding to treatments.

Landon

So why didn't you tell me?

The doctor said I should go on and live life normally as best I could. I - I didn't want anybody to be weird around me.

Landon

Including me?

Especially you!

Landon

I might kiss you.

I might be bad at it.

Landon

That's not possible

You're acting like a crazy person, what's going on?

Landon

Right now, you're straddling the state line.

[confused]

Okay...

Landon

You're in two places at once.

[Landon lays out a blanket for he and Jamie to sit on as they stargaze]

Are you trying to seduce me?

Landon

Why? Are you seducible?

No.

Landon

Ah, I didn't think so. Ergot: [pulls something out of his backpack] A second blanket.

Landon
[upset]

Are you scared?

To death... [Landon still looks upset] Lighten up.

Landon

It's not funny.

I'm scared of not being with you.

Landon

Oh baby, that'll never happen... I'll be here.

Landon

Do you love me?

Landon
[she nods]

Will you do something for me, then?

[smiles]

Anything.

Landon

Will you marry me?
[Jamie smiles and kisses him]

Landon

I'm sorry Jamie never got her miracle.

Reverend Sullivan

She did. It was you.

Landon

Jamie... I love you. [long pause] Now would be the time to say something.

I told you not to fall in love with me.

You don't know the first thing of being someone's friends.

Landon

I don't want just to be your friend.

You don't know what you want...

Landon

And neither do you! Maybe you're too scared that someone might actually want to be with you.

And why would that scare me?

Landon

Because you can't hide in your book, in...in your freakin' telescope, or your faith... [Jamie turns away] No, no...you know the real reason why you are scared? It's because you want to be with me, too.

You...

Landon

Me...

[long pause]

What is this?

Landon

I got you something.

Thank you.

Landon

Well, I'll see you at school.

Okay.

Landon

Jamie, I'm sorry, okay? They're animals, sorry? Let me take you home? [Jamie nods] Let's get out of here... [long pause] Are you sure you're okay?

Uhm, I'm fine...Thank you for everything.

Landon

No, you're welcome...Hey, I want to ask you something.

Okay.

Landon

Will you...go out with me? On Saturday night?

I'm sorry, I can't...go.

Landon

Oh...you have...something's going on?

It's not that.

Landon

So what's this?

I'm not allowed to date.
