Love Happens :) Live in the Moment

_{[A/N: I was really into this movie! Hahaha]}

Tyler: Whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it's very important that you do it. Because nobody else will. Like when someone comes into your life and half of you says you're nowhere near ready, but the other half says: make her yours forever.

Plot:

In 1991, an 11-year-old girl named Alyssa "Ally" Craig witnesses the murder of her mother on a New York City Subway platform, on the F Line at 18th Avenue and McDonald Avenue elevated station in Brooklyn.

Ten years later, a 21-year-old Ally is a student at New York University. She lives at home with her overprotective detective father, Neil Tyler Hawkins, a moody, directionless 21-year-old, is auditing classes at NYU and working in a bookstore. He has had a strained relationship with his businessman father, Charles since his brother Michael's suicide (after which Tyler got Michael's name tattooed on his chest). Charles appears to ignore his youngest child, Caroline, with whom Tyler is very close.

One night, Tyler and his roommate Aidan find themselves in trouble with Neil. Later, Aidan sees Neil dropping Ally off at NYU. He decides to retaliate against the detective by persuading Tyler to sleep with and ultimately dump Ally. Tyler reluctantly agrees to meet her. After spending some time together, Ally and Tyler bond over the losses in their lives and begin to fall in love. After Ally sleeps over at Tyler's house, she and her father have a fight, ending with Neil hitting her. Ally then moves in with Tyler and Aidan. Meanwhile, Caroline, who is a budding artist, is featured in an art show. Tyler tries to convince his father to attend the show, but he is forced away on business. Tyler angrily confronts him after the show, which drives a further wedge between the two.

Later, Neil's friend, a cop, recognizes Tyler with Ally on a train coming from a beach holiday with his family. Neil breaks into Tyler's apartment and confronts Tyler. Tyler provokes Neil by confessing to Aidan's plan and his initial reason for meeting Ally, which in turn forces Tyler to confess everything to Ally. She leaves him angrily and returns to her father's home. The couple remain alienated until Aidan visits her to explain that only he is to blame, and that Tyler was sincerely in love with her. They are then shown to be back together, as they walk with Caroline in the park.

Before this reunion, Caroline is bullied by a group of classmates at a birthday party; they cut her hair off, and when they tease her in front of Tyler, he turns violent and ends up in jail again. Charles is impressed that Tyler stood up for his sister, and they begin to reconnect.

Later, Charles asks Tyler to meet with him and his lawyers at his office. Charles takes Caroline to school and is late, so Tyler waits in his office, where he sees, on Charles's computer, a screensaver of pictures of Tyler, Michael, and Caroline when they were younger.

Caroline is then shown in class and the teacher draws her attention to the board, where the date is revealed as September 11, 2001. Tyler looks out at Manhattan from the window of his father's office—which is located in the North Tower of the World Trade Center. He's standing at the exact point that Flight 11 hit the tower. Once the 9/11 terrorist attacks begin, the rest of the family (along with Aidan and Ally) are seen looking horrified at the towers before the camera pans over the rubble, showing Tyler's diary. Tyler is later buried next to Michael.

Some time later, Caroline (whose hair has grown back) and Charles seem to have a healthy father-daughter relationship. Aidan, who has since gotten a tattoo of Tyler's name on his arm, is working hard in school and Ally is finally taking the subway again, after having avoided it since her mother's death. The film ends as she looks at the camera with a small, sad smile.

Quotes:

Tyler: [from trailer] Gandhi said that whatever you do in life will be insignificant. But it's very important that you do it. I tend to agree with the first part.

-----

Tyler: [from trailer] Someone's been trying to tell me something. Make her yours forever, and I'm working on the forever part. 

-----

Aidan: [In jail] I'm glad you're happy being alone in your library with all your piles of books. But I want a future... I want a girlfriend, a wife, a divorce, and a mid-life stalking episode. 

-----

Caroline: Why do you think Dad doesn't wanna spend time with me?
Charles: She knows I'll take care of her.That's all there is, Tyler.
Tyler: 'That's all there is?' Not enough.

-----

Aidan: [to Tyler] That's why chicks dig you, man. They love this freaky, poetic crap.

-----

Neil Craig: You're kinda lost, aren't ya?
Tyler: You think you know me, but you don't.

-----

Tyler: If you could hear me, I would say that our finger prints don't fade from the lives we've touched.

-----

Aidan: Come on! Just one drink!
Tyler: When was the last time you had one drink?
Aidan: [thinks] Communion.

-----

Ally: I have my dessert first.
Tyler: Is that a political statement? A medical condition, perhaps?
Ally: I just don't see the point in waiting. I mean, what if I die while eating my entree?
Tyler: Is that probable?
Ally: It's possible. What if I choke? What if an asteroid come hurling down onto the restaurant?... I'll tell you what, if you swear on your eternal soul that I'll make it through my entree, then I'll wait. But before you answer, consider that if something does happen, you'll have to live the rest of your life knowing that not only did you lie to me, but you denied of my one last indulgence. Are you prepared to shoulder that kind of responsibility? 

-----

Tyler: [tries to kiss her, but is denied]
Ally: Not tonight. Not never, but just not tonight.
Tyler: So, dessert first in case of asteroids, yes. But kissing a guy you seem at least somewhat attracted to before riding off into the unknown New York night alongside a panda you've only just met, no?
Ally: [kisses him] You're weird.
Tyler: I know.

-----

Tyler: Love's involved with spending time together, but spending time apart, can lead to loving even *more*.

-----

Ally: You're the ass-aholic!
Aidan: Yeah, well... I dunno about - Wait, what?

-----

Aidan: I sold your girlfriend a toothbrush.
Tyler: You sold my who? What?
Aidan: You know, your girlfriend. That voluptuous delightfully oblivious little blonde you left in your bed yesterday?
Tyler: Yeah
Aidan: Yeah, I sold her a toothbrush. I got three bucks.
Tyler: Congratulations.
Aidan: Yeah are in order. 'Cause that sale inspired our newest business venture. The S.L.U.T. It's a Single Lady's Universal Tote. It's a one-night-stand travel pack for women. You know? We throw in make-up and toiletries a cell phone charger, cab numbers... We retail it for $19.95. Maybe we'd do an infomercial.
Tyler: Do you think women will buy this, with actual money?
Aidan: Okay. Yeah. You know what? Fine. Be cynical. But think about it, at one point in history, two people had a conversation, a lot like this one about the lightbulb. One went on to fame and fortune, the other probably went to work at Mickey D's or something. 

-----

Aidan: Hey, what about Atlantic city for your birthday this year, man?
Tyler: Really?
Aidan: Yeah, we could get a suite. You could call toothbrush girl.
Tyler: I think I'd rather be sodomised with a toothbrush, than that.
Aidan: It's your day man, we could work something out. 

-----

Aidan: Megan! Meg- wow, you look great.
Megan: Do. Not. Speak.
[She keeps working]
Aidan: Ok. Two beers.
[to Tyler]
Aidan: Is she mad at me or something?
Tyler: She's not mad. That's how people act when they're really into you. 

-----

Caroline Hawkins: Mademoiselle Fleischman had to snap her fingers at me a lot today. And everybody laughed. They all think I'm a freak of nature.
Tyler: Mademoiselle Fleischman. Ma petite soeurette, une freak of nature. Mon Dieu. Sacre Bleu. French toast. 

-----

Aidan: What the hell happened in the kitchen? Looks like somebody's water broke in there. 

-----

Aidan: I want a girlfriend.
Tyler: What?
Aidan: Dinners out, movies, regular sex. I can handle that... for like a... summer.
Ally: You're such a romantic. 

-----

Aidan: [to Ally] He's in love with you. I've only ever seen him look at one other girl the way he looks at you, and she's a lot shorter and shares his DNA.
