Here’s where all of your favorite characters end up on ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ season one

Between dating and preparing for the debutante ball, Belly learned a lot about herself over the summer. Her friendships with the Fisher boys changed, and she had a few fights with Taylor and Steven. Belly also realized she didn’t feel “fireworks” with Cam after dating him for most of the summer, and she had a brief romantic connection with Jeremiah after Conrad rejected her.

Although Jeremiah escorted her to the debutante ball, in the aftermath of the kids finding out Susannah’s cancer had returned, Belly ultimately realized her heart was still with her first love, Conrad. Conrad and Belly open up to each other and share their first kiss on the beach at the very end of the season. During the debutante ball, Jeremiah finds out that his mother’s cancer has returned.

He also fights with Conrad when he realizes that his brother already knew and didn’t tell him. But after talking with his mom, Jeremiah convinces her to take part in an experimental trial. He also seems to realize that Belly is still in love with Conrad after watching the two of them dance together at the debutante ball.

Conrad spent most of the summer being closed off around his friends and family in reaction to his mother’s cancer coming back — which he figured out before any of the other kids. He didn’t give a ton of attention to the girl he was seeing, Nicole, missed work with Cleveland, and fought with Jeremiah throughout the summer. Though he brushed Belly off at first after they almost kissed, he finally admitted his feelings for her by the end of the final episode.

Steven balances working, dating, and spending time with his family throughout the summer. Though Steven is initially upset at Jeremiah for kissing Belly, they’re on good terms by the end of the summer. Steven also fixes his relationship with Shayla and plans on applying to Princeton.

When Belly is debating between pursuing Conrad or Jeremiah, Taylor encourages her to be with Jeremiah because she’s trying to protect her friend’s heart. But the friends end up in a major fight after Taylor kisses Steven. By the time Taylor leaves at the end of the summer, she and Belly are getting along better, and she also patches things up with Steven.

Throughout the summer, Susannah confides in Laurel about her marriage and admits that she doesn’t want to stay with her husband — especially not if the only good reason is that her cancer came back. She initially hides her diagnosis from all the kids, partly because she doesn’t want to get treatment and wants everyone to enjoy one last summer together. But after her sons find out, Susannah agrees to take part in an experimental trial.

Cleveland and Laurel go on dates throughout the summer, but when he asks her to go with him to a book festival, she declines. Laurel plans on being around as much as possible for Susannah and her boys and is relieved when Susannah agrees to get treatment. She also ends the season comforting Belly, who was the last person to find out about Susannah’s diagnosis.

After almost kissing Conrad, Belly realizes she doesn’t want to keep dating Cam. She breaks up with him on their beach date, and he admits that he knew Belly was planning on ending things when she never asked him to be her debutante escort. Shayla decides to keep dating Steven, even after he kissed Taylor.

She even agrees to be exclusive with him. Then after Steven gambles away the money he was saving for his suit for the debutante ball — sparking another conflict between them — Shayla forgives him and loans him one of her father’s. The two kiss and say they love each other for the first time on the final episode.

Though Nicole is initially friendly to Belly and is assigned as her debutante big sister, she abandons Belly and Taylor when she starts to get jealous of Conrad and Belly’s relationship. On the day of the debutante ball, Nicole and Belly talk, and Nicole says she’s done with Conrad. She also advises Belly to be careful about juggling guys, as she did over the summer.
