I wanna soldier on.

I really do.

Okay?

No.

No what?

I don't wanna "soldier on".

Ian, if I were to stay in London now,

it would only be for you. For us.

And I would do that in a heartbeat...

if I thought that we were

really special.

- We are.

- Really?

You never tell me how you feel,

or talk about yourself.

You don't wanna meet my family.

You forgot my graduation.

We ran into my favorite student, and

you act as if he has something contagious.

Ian, I know you have the best intentions...

but I just feel like I'm a very high

second priority for you.

That hurts.

And the worst part is

I'm starting to get used to it.

I don't understand.

I know.

It's what kills me.

If there'd just been one day, Ian...

one day, when nothing else

mattered for us...

- I adore you.

- I don't wanna be adored.

I wanna be loved.

Where are you going?

Spend the night at Lottie's,

to the airport tomorrow and then...

I can't do this anymore.

I saw you at the travel agency today.

Where are you going?

Johannesburg, business.

Samantha, Samantha wait, please.

Will you, please?

You can't do this to me.

You can't leave me.

What are you saying? You're saying

that I'll never see you again?

Are you coming or not?

In or out, my friend?

It's your choice.

Samantha!

No, Samantha!

Baby, baby please no!

Baby, baby please...

Help me, help me, help me!

So sorry.

I wanted to be with her...

I really did.

How can this have happened?

How can she be gone?

"Got a part-time job teaching music to kids.

There's a really cool art teacher there

named Lottie. Insane in all the best ways."

"Met a great guy, his name is Ian.

Great Kisser, Killer Smile.

Let's see what happens."

"I've been working on this song about me and Ian.

I want to give it to him before I go away,

but I'm afraid I'll scare him

so I bought him a jacket instead."

"They say there's always someone

in a relationship who loves more.

Oh God, I wish it wasn't me."

"Love Will Show You Everything"

Read one word, and I'll kill you.

I was just kidding!

You're, you're, you're here!

Yes, yes, and you're scaring me.

I, I, I...

You...

I...

You...

Okay, I'm gonna approach you,

and... and now I'm gonna hug you.

It's okay, everything's gonna be okay.

I'm really gonna miss you.

Me too, I really will miss you, Sam.

I hope you know that.

- I do.

- It's important that you believe me.

I believe you.

And I would hate... hate for you

to have to go through so much pain.

So instead of missing me,

why don't you come with me to Ohio?

Samantha...

You're definitely not coming.

I can't.

Of course you can't, work,

I know, big meeting...

I... I had a meeting...

and you... you...
