The 9 best Peter Kavinsky and Lara Jean Covey moments

A little something to tide you over until the (*fingers crossed) sequel

Let's be honest: we all fell *hard* for Peter Kavinsky this year. His swoon-worthy smile, his charm, his obsession with Fight Club—it's all just too cute to handle. Him and Laura Jean Covey are MFEO, of course. So let's take a trip down memory lane and reminisce on their most amaze moments.

1. The smooch that started it all.

This would def never happen IRL, but Peter and Lara's first "meaningless" kiss is what got this whole thing started, and it totes deserves a place in this list. Maybe it wasn't the real deal, but it was still pretty adorbs.

2. Negotiating their relationship contract

Sure, the relationship was fake in the beginning, but we still seriously swoon every time we think about their future love story. This is the beginning of it all, and how *adorable* is their teasing. Also: their taste in movies is on point.

3.  The back pocket spin

Even when they're faking it, you can practically feel how much they already care about each other; it's part of what makes this movie so swoon-worthy! Oh, and turns out: that was actually Noah Centineo's idea!

4. Their first party together

Crowds of people are *not* Lara Jean's thing—but with Peter by her side she was unstoppable. Not only did he push her out of her comfort zone, and we totally love how much Peter and Lara bonded. And don't even get us *started* with how cute Peter's lock screen pic is. 

5. The post-party diner scene

Lara opens up about her mom who passed away, Peter tells Lara about his dad leaving, and, you know, we're pretty sure this entire scene was written to make us sob for eternity. For a split second, Peter even forgets that his and Lara Jean's relationship is fake—he falls in love with her right before her eyes...and then Lara Jean crushes his dreams. Ouch...

6. Dinner with Peter's family

For a fake couple, these two are all about the #deep convos. After a semi-awkward dinner with Peter's mom and siblings, Lara Jean and Peter get real about tough topics again. This is about the time that everyone watching yells "JUST DATE FOR REAL ALREADY!" because it's clear to everyone BUT them that they're meant to be together. 

7. *That* hot tub moment

We think this one is pretty self-explanatory, but this is the first time that Lara and Peter are intimate for real, and we get confirmation that this relationship is end game. Now that they're together, nothing can go wrong, right? Right?

8. When Peter defends Lara

Wrong. Everyone thinks that a little *more* happened between Peter and Lara in the hot tub, but Peter doesn't hesitate to shut down those rumors. Lara is a strong, independent girl, but even the strongest people break down once in a while. She tries to handle this one on her own, but no one listens to her. Peter swoops in and sets the record straight—making us swoon all over again.

9. The final scene

Here, Lara Jean tells Peter that she likes him (and not in a fake way), and Peter responds by telling Lara that he's in love with her. "You gonna break my heart, Covey?" will play on repeat in our heads *forever,* and this moment is by far the best moment between Peter and Lara. Bring on the happy tears!
