The Kissing Booth

Dr. Weissler report to delivery.

Look at that cute baby!

That's me, Elle Evans.

And the smelly, less-cute baby right

next to me? That's my best friend Lee.

Lee and I were born on the same day,

at the same time,

here in Los Angeles, California.

Our moms were BFFs before people

even used the term "BFF,"

so we were raised like twins

and we've been pretty much

inseparable ever since.

Be together, be together...

I don't remember a lot

from before high school,

but for as long as I can remember,

Lee and I have absolutely

loved to dance.

Watching the moonlight

You dance in shadow

Fantastic dream of a dream

The moon and the stars

are a lover's creation...

Anyway a lot of stuff has happened

between now and then.

Let me get you up to speed.

First Christmas I remember, I was six.

I got a Barbie dance party.

Lee got a scooter.

Broke my leg riding Lee's scooter.

Had my cast signed by Lee, who bought me

ice cream to make up for breaking my leg.

Dressed as a cowboy for Halloween,

Lee went as a doctor.

Learned how to ride a bike,

learned how to swim.

Got protected by Lee's older brother Noah,

who chased off some bullies

who were hassling us.

Had to pay protection tax, though.

Discovered the place

that we loved to dance most.

Let's just dance

Rip it up

When they open the rule book

Rip it up

Forget about your school work

Rip it up, yeah

Watched Lee catch his first fish.

Watched Noah in his first fight. He won.

Dressed as a fireman for Halloween.

Lee went as some weird bird.

Found out that my mom was sick.

Went to visit her in the hospital

for the first time.

Tried to get used to seeing her there.

Got in a fight with Lee

over who's the best dancer.

Made up by getting him ice cream.

Got in a fight with Noah

for beating up Lee.

Made up with Noah

by letting him fix my bike.

He is so handy!

Got my first bra. Didn't really need it.

Discovered I like soccer.

Discovered a way to get

to our favorite place to dance.

Looking for love

in all the wrong places

No fine girls just ugly faces

Says she wanna dance

to a different groove

Now you know what to do G

bust a move

What you want baby you got it

Just bust a move

Discovered that I wasn't gonna be

a fashion icon.

Discovered I am good at sports.

Had a tough talk with Dad.

Sat with mom in the hospital.

I tried to help her put makeup on.

Not much help.

Hey...

Held her hand a long time.

Only cried when she was asleep.

Tried to score my first kiss

with Randy Melrose.

Wasn't exactly a love connection.

Watched Noah getting really, really cute!

Watched Noah in yet another fight.

He won.

Got my period! Finally!

Went as a pirate for Halloween.

Lee was the Black Swan.

Said goodbye to my mom.

Had a lot to say.

Told her all about Noah.

Watched Noah ride his motorcycle

for the first time.

Watched Lee try to ride Noah's motorcycle.

Watched Noah teach Lee a lesson

for sitting on his motorcycle.

Celebrated with Lee

when he got his dream car.

Learned that girls can be really mean.

Played Seven Minutes in Heaven. Fail!

Got a bra I suddenly did need!

Wondered why I still hadn't been

kissed yet or even been on a date.

No big deal, I guess.

Realized I had a crush on Noah.

Got over my crush on Noah...

mostly.

Everybody holding hands...

Well...

I think that's about it.

It's gonna be a good night

And that's me today,

savoring the last fleeting moments

of summer at Lee's totally awesome house.

It's moments like this that make me wish

things could stay this way forever.

Ew! Perv!

Hey, Lee, guess what Warren

texted the entire school!

Lee?

Lee?

Geronimo!

Oh, no.

Oh, my God! That was a good one!

That was a good one!

Here, come here, take a seat.

So, tomorrow, first day of school,

the student council

is expecting our dance club idea

this week for the fall fundraiser.

We're gonna be in trouble if we don't

come up with something fast.

Yeah.

I saw you sliding out the bar...

I know what you're thinking.

Noah Flynn is stupid hot,

but Lee and I developed

a list of friendship rules.

Lee was responsible for Rule Number Nine,

which specifically states,

"relatives of your best friend

are totally off-limits."

This is a really big one for Lee.

I guess it comes from living

in the shadow of a high school legend.

Lee, you seen my athletic cup?

Yes, asshat.

I needed it for all those varsity sports

I'm constantly playing, you know?

Hey, Shelly.

He knows I hate being called Shelly.

Yes, Noah?

I know he hates being called Noah.

When did you get the b*obs?

When you were at football camp

learning to be a better douche.

It was almost like she was

on human growth hormones or something.

Lee! Rule Number Two, please!

Rule Number Two...

Never share our secrets with anyone else.

Whatever. Listen. M and D are out of town

Friday night, so party starts at eight.

Don't invite any jackasses.

Does that include you?

Ay!

Ah!

Ow.

What an ass!

I know!

Hey, hey, hey!

Rule Number Nine, young lady!

Oh, come on!

As if!

Yeah, well, you got a little bit of drool

on the corner of your mouth.

Right here? Oh, do I?

Yeah.

Do I really?

You do.

Every dollar counts...

Oh, no! Are you kidding me?

Oh, my God!

Hey, Dad, where are

my other pairs of school pants?

They're at the cleaners.

Come on!

But changing roles...

Ninth grade skirt on eleventh grade body.

Perfect!
