Liz's parents are rich and everyone treats her different because of it. Max's is poor and his whole life looked down on Liz because she was rich.
Getting in to the same college Max pretends he doesn't know her.
One night a bunch of guys bet Max that he couldn't get Lizze Parker to put out. And if he did they would take him on a trip to mexico. Max wanting to fit in with his rich friends agrees.
Liz who always had a secret crush on Max's is shock when he started to talk to and asks her out. Never having had a boyfriend before Liz is nerves but does say yes to Max.
Max's gets to know a side of Liz that surprises him. Like she worked to pay for her books that her parents didn't just give her tons of money if she wanted something she had to work for it.
Soon months have past and Michael and Max's other new friends all but forget the bet knowing that Max must have falling in love with Liz because of having spent all this time with her.
After getting close to sleeping together one night Liz confessing to Max that she's saving herself for marriage. Max is of cause the understanding Boyfriend. And also confessing that he hadn't ever gone that far either because he was always to worried about his grades to get into a relationship.
A few weeks later he asks Liz to marry him she agrees and after much begging on Max's part telling Liz that there getting married so what does it matter if they made love now are later they going to be together forever.
Liz gives in and sleeps with the love of her life.
The next day Liz comes by Max's room with a surprise gift for him one she had spend months saving and working up enough money for. Only to discover Max isn't there and no one knows where he and his friends have gone, not even Max's family.
A week later Liz is beside herself worried over what could have happened to Max. When he shows up at school she is just so happy Liz goes to his room and is surprised to see all the missing boys there. Not caring one bit about the crowd Liz runs to Max and kisses him asking where he had been and why hadn't he called she had been so worried.
The guys all laugh at Liz and Michael tells Lizze two shoes she's been had. That Max didn't love her and was just using her, that this last week he had been in mexico with them partying the nights away.
Liz's not believing them asks Max's she just knows that he couldn't have done that he loved her they were getting married.
Max just laughs in her face telling Liz he didn't feel anything for her and that she was a cold fish in bed. Liz rans out of his room and everyone has a good laugh at poor little Lizzie Parker.
A few days go by and Max's gets a call for the Parker's asking if he had heard from Liz. When he tells them no they inform him that Liz is missing and no one had seen or heard from her in days.
Max just figures Liz is to embrassed at being made a fool of that she has taken a few days off. Trying to not worry about Liz, Max looks at her gift she left for him the one he hasn't opened.
After a week without seeing Liz's Max realize just how much he missing her. And finds that all he wants to do is find her and beg forgiveness and marry her. He wants to kick himself he should have realized sooner he was in love with her. After all in mexico all he had done was stay locked in his room at night thinking about her. He hadn't even kissed anyone other then her in the past four months.
Getting a call from the cops a few hours later Max find himself at a beach and see Liz's car there but no Liz. The cops handed Max a note and telling him they believe that Miss Parker took her own life by walking into the ocean.
The letter Liz left behind is full of how stuipd could I be and that he had told her he loved her that they were going to be married. That she hated herself for sleeping with him and she just wanted to die to make the pain stop.
The Parkers show up and take the letter from Max. Max leaves going back to his room he finally opens Liz's gift and his heart stops as he see a labtop computer the one he had wanted so he could begin his novel.
Max knew that Liz didn't have enough money to pay for something like this and her parents wouldn't just buy her a new one when she had one. Knowing Liz she must have worked for a few months and also saved some of the money her parents gave her to live on for this.
Max opens the card that was with and it reads. To the love of my life, I hope this can make all your dreams of being a writer come true. As you have made all my dreams about becoming your wife true. I never told you but Max I've been in love with you since grade school. Yours always Liz Parker soon to be Evans.
Max stays in his room for a week never leaving it. He doesn't want to live, he killed the only person he had ever loved.
But one night a idea hit Max and he starts writing by the time he finishes college Max has finish his book which is all about Liz. Changing names Max wrote about a man who had cause the death of his love by doing just what he had. Only the book went on to five years in the future showing how the man dealed with the pain.
It ended with the man going back to the same beach on the day he lost his love and following her foot steps.
Max's sends the book off to be published knowing by the time it does he won't be alive any longer he's going to follow his love the only lover he had ever had.
Five years on the day Liz died Max is on the beach with a note that read please read my book when it comes out you see why I had to do this.
Max is standing in the ocean water up to his hips when he hears voices yelling at him to stop. Turning around Max is met by the one person he only thought he will see again after he had drown.
Liz Parker is standing there with two small children with her. Max's rans back to the shore and hugs Liz tight telling her how much he loved her and what a fool he had been. And if only she would forgive him he would never ever let her go again.
Liz kisses Max and tells him she already has. He asks how and she hands him his book. It seems that Liz worked at the company Max sent his book too. She read it and knew she had to stop Max from killing himself. That and reading how Max had taken her 'death' blaming himself and not wanting to live without her helped her to forgive him.
Max then asks where she has been these last five years and how she was alive.
Liz tells Max that she couldn't kill herself that night althought she had thought she could. Instead she had walked for miles on the beach never stoping only to end up in the hosptial after she had past out up the beach about 40 miles. Her parents had find her the day after her car had been found and Liz refused to return to school.
She hadn't realized that her parents had never told anyone she was alive.
Max then asked who the two kids with her were. Liz smiled and told him that they were his children well their children. It seemed that Liz had gotten pregnant from their one night of love.
Liz had never told Max because she didn't think he would have cared not after they way he had laughed at her.
Max's get down on his knees looking at his chidlren twins a boy and girl who look some much like their father you had to be blind not to see they were his kids.
While on his knees Max begs Liz to run away with him to Las Vegas and get married that very day or the next. Liz saids yes and Max leaves his car and goes with Liz in hers.
A week later at the Evans the Parkers show up for Max's furnel. They do feel alittle guitly because of never telling Max, Liz was alive and he killed himself thinking he was following her.
Everyone is in for a surprise when Max and Liz show up with the twins and tell everyone their married.
