There’s nothing like a first love. From West Side Story to The Fault in Our Stars , here’s how our favorite film adolescent romances measure up.
Disclaimer: For a movie to be considered for this list, both characters in the relationship needed to be of high school age or younger. (Sorry, The Notebook lovers.)
Ronnie and Will, The Last Song (2010)
What it's about: Ronnie (Miley Cyrus) comes to spend the summer with her quasi-estranged father at his beach house, where she meets Will (Liam Hemsworth). At first, she resists his advances, but he gradually wins her over and is pretty much the perfect boyfriend as her father's health begins to fade.
Moment that made you melt: That epic, playful mud fight. —Anne Helen Petersen

Gabriella and Troy, High School Musical (2006)
What it's about: A high school mathlete, Gabriella (Vanessa Hudgens), and basketball superstar, Troy (Zac Efron), get paired up at karaoke on New Year's Eve while on their respective family vacations and part ways at midnight, thinking they'll never see each other again... UNTIL (in true Grease fashion) Gabriella unexpectedly winds up transferring to Troy's school and both are torn between their cliques and their love of "the theater."
Moment that made you melt: When Troy almost walks off the stage on that fateful karaoke night during "Start of Something New," thinking Gabriella wouldn't want to sing with him and then is taken aback by her angelic voice. —Jaimie Etkin
Disney Channel
Alvin and Paris, Love Don’t Cost a Thing (2003)
What it's about: Alvin (Nick Cannon) only wants to be popular. So when cheerleader Paris (Christina Milian) crashes her car and can't afford the repairs, Alvin agrees to fix the bumper for the small price of pretending to be his girlfriend for two weeks.
Moment that made you melt: When Paris plays the guitar for Alvin while he reads the words she wrote. —Emily Orley
