Dexter ღ Emma ♥ One Day
Plot Summary It's 1988 and Dexter Mayhew and Emma Morley have only just met. They both know that the next day, after college graduation, they must go their separate ways. But after only one day together, they cannot stop thinking about one another. As the years go by, Dex and Em begin to lead separate lives-lives very different from the people they once dreamed they'd become. And yet, unable to let go of that special something that grabbed onto them that first night, an extraordinary relationship develops between the two. Over twenty years, snapshots of that relationship are revealed on the same day- July 15th-of each year. Dex and Em face squabbles and fights, hopes and missed opportunities, laughter and tears. And as the true meaning of this one crucial day is revealed, they must come to grips with the nature of love and life itself. One Day Two People - Home David Nicholls - One Day ♥ ღ ღ ღ Quotes ♥ ♥ ♥ ‘This is me.’ He handed her the precious scrap of paper. ‘Call me or I’ll call you, but one of us will call, yes? What I mean is it’s not a competition. You don’t lose if you phone first.’ - Dex to Em ♥ ♥ ♥ "You’re gorgeous, you old hag, and if I could give you just one gift ever for the rest of your life it would be this. Confidence. It would be the gift of confidence. Either that or a scented candle." — Dexter’s letter to Emma ♥ ♥ ♥ "Just the whole of our lives, stretching ahead of us. Independent adult life. She didn’t feel like an adult. She was in no way prepared. It was as if a fire alarm had gone off in the middle of the night and she was standing on the street with her clothes bundled up in her arms. The trick of it, she told herself, is to be courageous and bold and make a difference. Not change the world exactly, just the bit around you." ♥ ♥ ♥ "What are you going to do with your life?” In one way or another it seemed that people had been asking her this forever; teachers, her parents, friends at three in the morning, but the question had never seemed this pressing and still she was no nearer an answer… “Live each day as if it’s your last’, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn’t practical. Better by far to be good and courageous and bold and to make difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance." ♥ ♥ ♥ Dexter: ‘I take it that’s a no then,’ he said eventually, pinching the sea-water from his nose. Emma: ‘I think so. I think our moment passed some time ago.’ Dexter: ‘Oh. Really. Are you sure? Because I think we’d feel much better if we got it out of the way.’ Emma: ‘Got it out of the way?’ Dexter: ‘I just think we’d feel closer. As friends.’ Emma: ‘You’re worried that not sleeping together could spoil our friendship?’ Dexter: ‘I’m not expressing myself very well—’ Emma: ‘Dexter, I understand you perfectly, that’s the problem—’ Dexter: ‘If you’re scared of Ingrid—’ Emma: ‘I’m not scared of her, I’m just not going to do it so that we can say that we’ve done it. And I’m not going to do it if the first thing you say afterwards is “please don’t tell anyone” or “let’s forget it ever happened”.If you have to keep something secret it’s because you shouldn’t be doing it in the first place!’ ♥ ♥ ♥ “Dexter, I love you so much. So, so much, and I probably always will. I just don’t like you anymore. I’m sorry.” — Emma Morley ♥ ♥ ♥ Emma: ‘I tell you what it is. It’s…. when I didn’t see you, I thought about you every day, I mean every day in some way or another….’ Dexter: ‘Same here….’ Emma: ‘—- even if it was just “I wish Dexter could see this” or “where’s Dexter now?” or “Christ, that Dexter, what an idiot”, you know what I mean, and seeing you today, well, I thought I’d got you back - my best friend. And now all this, the wedding, the baby - I’m so, so happy for you Dex. But it feels like I’ve lost you again’ ♥ ♥ ♥ And then she frowned, and shook her head, then put her arms around him once more, pressing her face into his shoulder, making a noise that sounded almost like rage. ‘What’s up?’ he asked. ‘Nothing. Oh, nothing. Just…’ She looked up at him. ‘I thought I’d finally got rid of you.’ ‘I don’t think you can.’ he said. ♥ ♥ ♥ "I mean it, if you lead me on or let me down or go behind my back, I will murder you. I swear to God, I will eat your heart." ♥ ♥ ♥ “He wanted to live life in such a way that if a photograph were taken at random, it would be a cool photograph.” ♥ ♥ ♥ ‘Do you miss her?’ ‘Who? Emma? Of course. Every day. She was my best friend.’ He nudges her with his elbow. ‘Why, do you?’ Jasmine frowns as she recalls. ‘I think so. I was only four, I don’t remember her that well, only when I look at pictures. I remember the wedding. She was nice though, wasn’t she?’ ‘Very nice.’ ‘So who’s your best friend now?’ He places a hand on the back of his daughter’s neck, fitting his thumb into the hollow there. ‘You of course.’ ♥ ♥ ♥ ღ ღ ღ Woman to Man: Our Exclusive Interview with Author David Nicholls One Day | Books | EW.com Books of The Times - They Meet.

I made the list and I added you
I love this book, so I can't wait for the movie. I know, I will cry, but it's a great love story. I love these two so much, especially Emma. Anne Hathaway movie crew takes over house Pics: Jim Sturgess > One Day (2011) Anne Hathaway > [2011] One Day |

Same here, Emma was a great character (as was Dexter, but Emma was my favourite of the two)
I think the casting's brilliant. I've been a fan of Anne Hathaway for a pretty long time, and I've loved Jim Sturgess since Across The Universe, so them being in a movie together of a book I love is really awesome. __________________

Emma is genuine, strong, sensitive. A really great woman. We saw a real Dexter only with her. These two are soulmates, true love, a perfect pair
I agree with you about the cast. I like both, Jim and Anne. They are two great actors, and I do not care so much about Anne's accent. New pics: Anne Hathaway @ One Day movie set in London, Aug 23rd |

Hi, please add me to the list. This couple needs more love ♥ I love them after reading the book. It's such a real love story, not to sweet and sappy. I think Anne/Jim will be great and everyone working BTS gives me hope that they gonna stay true to the book and do a great job.

I added you
I agree with you, they are pure love. The book is amazing! I think people will start to love them after the movie. Anyway I think they should read the book because it's worth. Set pics are good. I've read that they are filming in Edimburgh, London and Paris. I hope they will add something of their Greece trip too. Some quotes from the book ♥ ♥ ♥ "Just the whole of our lives, stretching ahead of us. Independent adult life. She didn’t feel like an adult. She was in no way prepared. It was as if a fire alarm had gone off in the middle of the night and she was standing on the street with her clothes bundled up in her arms.

Not change the world exactly, just the bit around you." ♥ ♥ ♥ "What are you going to do with your life?” In one way or another it seemed that people had been asking her this forever; teachers, her parents, friends at three in the morning, but the question had never seemed this pressing and still she was no nearer an answer… “Live each day as if it’s your last’, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that?

That is a cute pic of Jim, I love him
I agree, I think when the movie comes out they'll get more supporters but I really hope people read the book b/c it's such a beautiful love story. And the characters are so real and very well developed. They have to have Greece in the movie, that's one of the best parts in the book! Well one of many. I can't wait for when the trailer comes out. |

I rewatched "Across the Universe" and Jim is really great on it
I agree, the characters are so real and the finale is so real too. I admit, I preferred another ending, but, you know, it's the life. I really hope they planned some scenes in Greece too but I'm not so sure because, on the movie description, they talked only about those three places. In these days they should film in Paris. I found this arts online. They are so cute and so happy here ETA Quote:

The newer pics of Anne with the short hair are so adorable. I feel like Jim and Anne are going to have a ton of chemistry.
