Things take a dive for the worse in eighth grade when Juli overhears Bryce talking to Garret about her mentally challenged uncle.

Garret makes a joke about Juli being mentally challenged as well.

Bryce wants to punch him, but doesn't want to lose his friend, so he pretends to laugh.

Juli, furious and hurt, decided to abandon every thought of Bryce, even though Bryce's Grandpa is very good friends with Juli and helps her tame her yard.

The flip comes here:

The more angry Juli is and the more she ignores him, the more Bryce notices and likes Juli, especially after he finds an old article about Juli's protest for her tree from elementary school.

Bryce begins to see that Juli is smart, spirited, and "irredecent", as grandpa Chet calls her.

And for once, Bryce can't get Juli out of his mind, and Juli hates Bryce the way Bryce hated her.

The climax comes at the eighth grade basket boys' luncheon. An auction in which boys are sold off to win money for charity.

Shy Bryce hates this event but has no choice in the matter.Bryce, being incredibly cute, gets auctioned off to Sherry, the prettiest girl on school, and Juli buys Jon out of pity, a boy who didn't get many offers.

While on their lunch date, Bryce finds he can't focus on Sherry; he just want to talk to Juli. Out of nowhere, he just stand and march his way to Juli.

He take her hand to stand, leans in and tries to kiss her...

But she yanks back and runs away. Unfortunately for Bryce, this act was witnessed on front of their entire class, so he is dogged the rest of the day by taunts, especially by his friend Garret.

It is implied that Bryce drops Garret as a friend in favor of Juli by the end.

Juli manages to get home without Bryce seeing her, but Bryce is determined now. He calls, knocks on her door, and eventually climbs her window.

Juli ignores him by sitting in the living room, until she looks out the window and sees Bryce's last attempt at winning her heart: he plants a sycamore tree in front of her yard.

When Bryce is finished, Juli finally came out to see Bryce.

The movie ends with their lines:

Juli said, "as we stood their, I realized that, all this years... We never really talk... But that day we started."

Then Bryce said, "and I knew we'd be talking for a long time..."

THE END.

The story settings was in year 1963...

And I'm continuing that that way.

Enjoy !
